Sunday, December 6: Officials issue lockdowns as the coronavirus surge strains hospitals

More than 30 million Americans will be under shelter-in-place orders by the end of the weekend, as more cities and counties issue orders to slow down the spread of coronavirus. In just the first week of December more than one million Americans have tested positive for the virus. That, as state health officials prepare to receive and distribute the first vaccine doses as soon as next week. Plus, President-elect Joe Biden faces pressure to diversify his cabinet and top White House staff. Senator-elect Ben Ray Lujan makes his case for a Latino to lead the Department of Justice. And, Senate control hangs in the balance of two runoff races in Georgia. President Trump held a campaign rally in the state Saturday night urging his supporters to turnout, while questioning the results of his own election. On today's show: Dr. Leana Wen of George Washington University and Dr. Megan Ranney of Brown University; North Carolina's Health and Human Services Secretary Mandy Cohen; Democratic Senator-Elect Ben Ray Lujan of New Mexico; CNN's Jeff Zeleny and Jackie Kucinich of the Daily Beast; Astead Herndon of the New York Times.
