This week’s episode is the unofficial “sequel” to my interview with Thomas Beckett Kane, author of The Reckoning. Filmmaker Jessica Ellis has lived with long Covid for several years now and offers a very different perspective from Kane on the government’s management of the pandemic.We discuss some key choices the Biden administration made back in 2021 regarding the covid vaccine, as well as the nation’s seeming desire to forget Covid ever happened and how that impacts public health. Ellis has some interesting observations about the know-nothing conspiracy theories that helped put chief know-nothing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in charge of the Department of Health and Human Services.You will hear:Jessica’s experience with long Covid and how people’s dismissal of the virus, vaccine, and effectiveness of protocols affects her personally and others who have to deal with the effects of long CovidHow the Biden administration’s “assurance” that once you took the vaccine everything would go back to normal killed a lot of people’s faith in anything they had to sayThe problem with both sides of the aisle trying to politicize the message around Covid rather than following the actual science led people to trust nothing, especially the scienceThe danger surrounding RFK’s know-nothing approach to the nation’s health and dangerous anti-vax rhetoric And more!Guest Info: Jessica Ellis is a commercial and narrative production designer, art director and multi-disciplinary artist.Jessica’s background as a painter motivates how she approaches set design and world building.
