Show Notes

Vaccine efficacy ... variants ... shifting mask mandates -- News about the coronavirus changes quickly. Today, an update.

Dr. James Campbell, principal investigator for U-MD School of Medicine’s pediatric vaccine trials, explains why young kids need a separate vaccine, and when it might be ready.
