5/19 Do Covid Vaccines Work Well Enough to Drop Masks and Return to Regular Life? w/ Dr. MarkAlain Dery

May 19, 2021

Sam and Emma host epidemiologist Dr. MarkAlain Dery and host of the Covid Noise Filter podcast to discuss the state of the pandemic, including vaccine effectiveness, the new CDC mask guidance and the agency’s litany of failures during the covid pandemic, and why not achieving herd immunity is not the end of the world.

And in the Fun Half: inside baseball on rhetoric to convince American Jews on Israel policy, miners striking for the 9th week in Alabama, the media’s cultural level does not address societal ills, Katie Porter brings out the whiteboard to illustrate the Pharma fantasy about research and development of new drugs, big progressive wins in the Pennsylvania democratic primaries, the January 6 commission is further proof that Trump remains the center of the conservative universe, plus your calls and IMs!
