Ask The Doctors: Delta Surging, Mandates

It's August 2021: are we in the fourth wave? And just how many more waves of this will we see?

We take listener questions with Dr. Davidson Hamer, infectious diseases physician at Boston Medical Center and a professor of infectious diseases and medicine at the Boston University School of Medicine. And Dr. Shira Doron, infectious disease physician and hospital epidemiologist at Tufts Medical Center.
