Ex-FDA head says mitigation hasn't worked "as well as we expected"
Former FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb told CBS News' "Face the Nation" on Sunday that despite widespread mitigation efforts, the coronavirus has exhibited "persistent spread" that could mean a "new normal" of 30,000 new cases and over 1,000 deaths a day through the summer.

This comes as many states are beginning to reopen parts of their economy, risking a resurgence of the virus.
