The state of COVID, three years into the pandemic

We’re now three years into the COVID-19 pandemic. This hour we look back at the past few years, and how we attempt to make sense of them. We’ll talk with the co-director of a COVID-19 oral history project, and an author who’s included the pandemic in her latest novel. Plus, we’ll get an update on the state of the virus.

GUESTS: 

• Dr. Saskia Popescu: Infectious Disease Epidemiologist, and an Assistant Professor in the Biodefense Program within the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University 
• Ryan Hagen: Lecturer in the Department of Sociology at Columbia University, and Co-Director of the New York City COVID-19 Oral History Memory and Narrative Archive 
• Weike Wang: An author whose latest novel is Joan Is Okay
