Nov 12, 2020, 09:35 PM

For many decades, the US has presented itself to the rest of the world as the gold standard when it comes to free and fair voting. So how does that square with President Donald Trump now refusing to concede after losing? And, China has four COVID-19 vaccines in phase 3 trials.

Also, “Transplant,” a new Canadian TV series, offers a fresh take on medical dramas.
