Checking In On Massachusetts' Contact Tracing Program

13:33

Gov. Charlie Baker has been clear that robust contact tracing is critical to any plans for a reopening. The goal of the state's program is to reach everyone who tests positive for the coronavirus, make sure they are in isolation, and then track and test all of their close contacts.

We're joined by John Welch, the director of partnerships and operations for the MA Covid Response project at Partners In Health for an update on the state's efforts to contact trace.

This segment aired on May 14, 2020.
