The U.S. opens up its vaccine stockpile

The Biden administration announced plans to share 60 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine with other countries. The US has been criticized for how little it shared so far - for example, we’ve sent just four million AstraZeneca doses to our neighbors in Mexico and Canada - even those they’ve asked for much more. Plus, how the Census is redrawing the Congressional map. And, Tesla and the future of self-driving cars.
