COVID-19 has dominated headlines nearly the entire year – and has affected life for every single one of us. And with the first images of people receiving much-anticipated vaccinations last week, there is a glimmer of hope for some return to some sort of normalcy – though we still have a while. In this episode, Adena and Kara talk to Jerrilyn Jones, M.D., MPH. She's the medical director for health preparedness at the Arkansas Department of Health and a practicing emergency medicine physician at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
This episode's Turn to Your Neighbor segment features Steven Savage, a public affairs professional in Blytheville, Arkansas.
