189 - Dr. Ashish Jha, White House Covid-19 Response Coordinator, on Next Generation Vaccines, When to Get Boosted, and Latest Treatments

We are joined today by Dr. Ashish Jha, the White House Covid-19 Response Coordinator, who gives us a timely update on all things Covid. We discuss the next generation of vaccines and the latest in treatments – including when you should get your booster and what is really behind the “Paxlovid rebound.”

Dr. Jha previously joined us on the podcast on December 13, 2021 in his capacity as Dean of the Brown University School of Public Health.  He’s on temporary leave from that role to serve in the Biden Administration.  

An accomplished physician, health policy researcher and global health advocate, Dr. Jha has led groundbreaking research around Ebola and has been on the frontlines of the COVID-19 response since the outset of the pandemic, continuously serving as a trusted voice who translates complex science into language we all can understand.
