With the recent surge in COVID cases, there has been an increase in the spread of misinformation about COVID. It's rooted in the fear of the unknown, and it's an attempt to provide answers to the challenges we are facing every day. With the Pfizer vaccine recently getting approved, there is light at the end of the tunnel. However, just because the end is in sight, doesn't mean the pandemic is over.

As a way to provide clarity to this confusion, we decided to have Dr. Martin Bazant on the podcast. Dr. Martin Bazant is an MIT Professor who has recently created a model to track the spread of COVID. By analyzing how the particles spread through the air, he is able to provide insight into when we are actually at risk, and what steps we can take to mitigate extreme exposure.

Only once we have a better understanding of how we transmit COVID can we effectively make decisions to prevent the spread. This podcast episode answers the questions we are all asking during this pandemic, and it helps shed some light on what is really safe.
