About this episode
It’s happening again.
Ahead of these holidays, infections of Covid are spiking, and people are going home sick in droves.
At the same time we’re also seeing major announcements from the federal government on changes to Covid policy, which signal the beginning of treating the virus like other respiratory illnesses.
Today, Nobel laureate Professor Peter Doherty on what we can still learn from Covid and what it’s teaching us about the future of global pandemics.
You can read his essay on this stage of the pandemic exclusively in The Saturday Paper this weekend.
