Leslie begins the hour with her 'Ripped from the Headlines' news segment.

Here are the two news stories that she covers:

1. The New Yorker - "How Did the U.S. End Up with Nurses Wearing Garbage Bags?"

2. NBC News - "Video shows giant trench being dug on NYC's Hart Island to bury coronavirus victims"

She's then joined by Dr. Robert Shapiro, Chairman of Sonecon, an economic advisory firm and a Senior Fellow of the McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University. He is an internationally-known economist who has advised, among others, President Bill Clinton, Vice President Al Gore, Jr., British Prime Ministers Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, and then U.S. Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.  He was Under Secretary of Commerce for Economic Affairs in the Clinton Administration.

Leslie and Dr. Shapiro discuss his new piece for 'Washington Monthly,' titled "The Case for Universal Mandatory COVID-19 Testing." (Article link here --> https://washingtonmonthly.com/2020/04/10/the-case-for-universal-mandatory-covid-19-testing/)
