With California open again, should we still be social distancing?

from Civic · host Laura Wenus, Liana Wilcox, Mel Baker

California's remaining restrictions pertain to mega-events, unvaccinated people, healthcare facilities, and settings serving children, and the guidelines say little about social distancing. Dr. Yvonne Maldonado, a professor of pediatrics – infectious diseases and of health research and policy at Stanford University, and Dr. Lee Riley, professor of infectious diseases at the School of Public Health in the division of infectious diseases and vaccinology at the University of California, Berkeley discuss the relative benefit of social distancing in concert with other prevention measures and under what circumstances distancing still makes sense.
