How did Yukon become Canada's latest Covid hotspot?
You would think we'd have learned this lesson by now—but alas. Yukon had one of the best records in Canada for managing the pandemic. Then they tried to go back to normal, and it didn't work so well. What happened to lead them down this path? What does a packed concert with no masks, distancing or capacity limits feel like? And what happens if a territory without a real ICU suddenly needs dozens of those beds? GUEST: Jackie Hong, CBC North
