AirTalk LIVE: COVID Doctors Retrospective

For the past three years, AirTalk has dedicated hundreds of on-air hours to COVID-19 coverage. From updates on case numbers to changes in health orders to the latest innovations in vaccine technology, host Larry Mantle (he/him) has brought you the most up-to-date information on how the pandemic affects your daily life. One of the ways AirTalk has been able to deliver this information in such an immediate manner has been tapping into a powerhouse line-up of doctors working on the frontlines. Each week, these healthcare superstars joined Larry on air to talk through the current state of the pandemic and answer your questions live. And we’ve heard over and over from listeners how much this has meant to them, so we’re bringing the doctors together for a special live event. Join Larry and the COVID doctors as we reflect on three years of living through a pandemic and to hear what they envision for the future.

This event is presented in partnership with Caltech.

• Dr. Dean Blumberg, Chief, Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases Professor, Division of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, UC Davis Health
