Upticks and Crackdowns in China, Tom Brady’s Welcome Back 3/14/22

China’s Covid cases are now the highest they’ve been since the beginning of the pandemic. Domestically, the country is addressing health concerns by halting business and production while simultaneously cracking down on its biggest tech stocks. Internationally, Chinese leaders are meeting with U.S. officials to discuss China’s role in Russia’s war on Ukraine. CNBC’s Kayla Tausche reports on the latest attacks in Ukraine and the week’s negotiation agenda for global powers. Two years after the WHO declared the coronavirus a global pandemic, Dr. Scott Gottlieb reflects on the long road since then, and considers global risks of a resurgence. Plus, the NFL’s shortest retirement: Tom Brady is heading back to the field less than two months after announcing his departure.
