About this episode
President Biden has tested positive for covid-19, and the White House has shared his prognosis and treatment. Former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb discusses the President’s health status, Paxlovid, and how pockets of unvaccinated communities could have prompted America’s first case of polio in ten years. FedEx is delivering a big change for customers, and American Express has scored points for shareholders with its impressive Q2 report. Plus, the Squawk Box segment that went viral! Aureus Asset Management’s Karen Firestone laughs about the meme-worthy moment in her (and her husband’s, and her dog’s!) markets hit this week.
