Kudlow Says U.S. Economy Won’t Shut Down Despite Surge in Virus

Top White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said the U.S. economy will not shut down again, even as a surge of coronavirus cases threatens the country’s economic recovery.

Kudlow acknowledged during a Fox Business Network interview on Thursday that there will be “spikes and hot spots,” that could force shutdowns “in individual places or certain stores.” But he said the American people will “have to live with this, from time to time.”
