Listen "The COVID-19 Second Wave"
Episode Synopsis
We are back for Season 2 of the Super Awesome Science Show!
It’s been a year unlike any other thanks to, COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) and the virus that causes this illness, SARS-CoV-2. We’ve received numerous questions over the course of the year and want to answer as many of them as possible.
And this week, we’re going into one of the most troubling issues facing us at this very moment: the second wave. It has been looming ever since the pandemic began but despite the focus on it over the last months, it still remains to many a mystery.
Our guest has been looking at pandemics of the past and why these second waves happen. He’s Patrick Saunders-Hastings and he is an epidemiologist and risk scientist who teaches at Carleton University. He has expertise in global health, infectious disease epidemiology and emergency preparedness and his research interests include pandemic influenza preparedness
