In today's episode of Going anti-Viral, we present a recent dialogue from October 19th, 2023, with special guest Katelyn K. Jetelina, MPH, PhD. Dr Jetelina is an epidemiologist, data scientist, and author of the popular newsletter "Your Local Epidemiologist (YLE)".
She joined moderator Paul Volberding, MD, and discussants Peter Chin-Hong, MD, and Carlos del Rio, MD, for a lively discussion on the latest hot-button issues in the field of infectious diseases.
Key conversations focus on the state of the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of vaccines and the growing issues related to insufficient data when tracking and treating viral infections.
