Chances are, if you work in healthcare, you've already been vaccinated, and as vaccination rates increase, we are finally starting to see COVID infection rates and positivity rates decrease. So what does this mean? Are we on our way out of the pandemic? What comes next? Joining us on this episode is our resident COVID expert, nurse practitioner Patsy Stinchfield, who is our COVID incident commander at Children's Minnesota, senior director of Infection Prevention and a member of the ACIP vaccine committee through the CDC. Listen as we discuss where we are in this moment of the pandemic, how vaccination is going, including a look at inequity in vaccine distribution and access, and finally, when and how we can expect to get COVID vaccination for kids.
