Cracking the COVID-19 Code: Understanding the Coronavirus

We welcome Trip Gulick, Professor of Medicine and Chief of the Division of Infectious Disease at Weill Cornell Medicine, for a discussion on all things COVID-19. We cover: (1:32) Why COVID-19 spreads so quickly and what sets this apart from other viruses, (5:20) what we know about COVID-19 that we didn't know at the start of the pandemic, (7:43) health inequities and social factors that create groups at greater risk to COVID-19, (14:50) what's next when it comes to COVID-19 and understanding vaccines, and (20:56) why flu shots and a COVID-19 vaccine are different.
