Episode Description

This week, senior White House officials embraced the Great Barrington Declaration, a statement funded by a libertarian think tank that calls for an end to most COVID-19 response measures. In this two-part bonus episode, Dr. Josh Sharfstein talks with epidemiologists Dr. David Dowdy and Dr. Amber D'Souza about the harm this strategy would cause. Part two is an excerpt from Sharfstein's conversation with immunologist Dr. Gigi Gronvall, who crunches the numbers and looks at key players behind the declaration.
