Description

As America faces a resurgence of COVID-19, epidemiologist Dr. Céline Gounder and Dean of Brown University School of Public Health Dr. Ashish Jha join Margaret Hoover for an extended conversation on the “most contagious, most transmissible” variant yet. 
They explain why Delta is so dangerous, answer questions about vaccines, breakthrough cases and booster shots and offer a frank look at what must be done to bring America — and the world — out of this pandemic.
