What the CDC Director Really Wants You to Know (with Rochelle Walensky‪)‬ In the Bubble with Andy Slavitt

    • News

Andy and CDC Director Rochelle Walensky dig into some of the toughest COVID questions of the moment. When will we be able to take our masks off? Will we need a 4th vaccine dose? What does the data tell us about variant-specific boosters? They talk about how our public health infrastructure has transformed over the past two years, the new COVID surveillance systems at our disposal, and what the CDC will be looking out for as the virus continues to mutate. Plus, Dr. Walensky reflects on her first year as head of the CDC and gives practical advice for people navigating their local guidance when it contradicts CDC recommendations.
