Going From Red To Green In COVID Fight
December 4, 2020 – Gene Grant and The Line opinion panelists talk about new COVID public health orders that make use of a three-tiered “red to green” system to allow reopenings by county, based on case prevalence and positivity rate. Getting community buy-in to stem the spread of the virus seems key, but are the incentives to do so strong enough? As hospitals fill beyond capacity, will future vaccines provide the best defense against COVID-19?
