Show Notes
The pandemic phase of COVID-19 is officially over, but there's still work to be done. Virologist and podcast regular Dr. Andy Pekosz talks with Stephanie Desmon about transitioning to annual COVID vaccines (no longer referred to as boosters!); "Arcturus," or variant XBB.1.16; and the importance of investing in the development of antivirals and other treatments.
