Today’s episode is audio from a webcast recorded on October 15 with Dr. Anthony Fauci and Bloomberg School dean Dr. Ellen MacKenzie as part of the inaugural Johns Hopkins Health Policy Forum. They discuss Fauci’s background with the HIV/AIDS epidemic and parallels to COVID-19, the state of the U.S. coronavirus response, and how implementing better controls doesn’t necessarily mean brutal lockdowns. Fauci also talks about how we as individuals have an obligation to protect ourselves as well as others to get the pandemic under control.
