S2, E2-  A Deep Dive Into COVID-19 Vaccines

Vaccinations have proven to reduce the severity of symptoms, hospitalizations, and death for people who contract COVID. But for some, the debate surrounding the vaccines has kept them from getting a booster, let alone the initial round of vaccinations. In this episode, we explore how the vaccines were developed so quickly, the differences between them, and how they work. "They're helping us every day. They're reducing hospitalizations and mortality and don't kid yourself: the chances of you being hospitalized or dying from COVID is much greater if you are not vaccinated. The data is very clear on that, and it has held up throughout this last twelve months," says Dr. Robert Popovian, Chief Science Policy Officer at the Global Healthy Living Foundation.
