Over 1,000 city employees could be suspended for violating the city's COVID-19 vaccine mandate, which acting Mayor Kim Janey announced back in August. Plus, there's new developments in a potential pill for treating COVID, booster shots from Moderna and Johnson & Johnson, vaccine side effects and more.

Infectious disease experts Dr. Sabrina Assoumou with Boston Medical Center and Dr. Helen Boucher with Tufts Medical Center join us to take listener questions in Ask The Doctors.

This segment aired on October 12, 2021.
