Atlanta: Asian American fear and anxiety

A man has been arrested and charged after a mass shooting at three Atlanta-area spas that killed eight people. Six of the victims were identified as Asian and seven were women. The gunman told police he had a “sex addiction” and the murders were not racially motivated. But his confession has done nothing to quiet fears and anxieties of Asian Americans. Plus, in the race to get all adults vaccinated, are the most vulnerable being left behind? And, Volkswagen takes on Tesla. Guests: Axios' Shawna Chen, Joann Muller and Caitlin Owens.
