This is the ninth installment in our Third Place series on COVID-19 and resulting pandemic. In this episode, our host, David Brown, interviews renowned epidemiologist and Tulane professor, Dr. Susan Hassig. Dr. Hassig has been on the faculty at Tulane for 20+ years. We discuss a variety of epidemiological issues including: hydroxychloroquine, antibody treatment from “convalescent plasma," herd immunity, monoclonal antibodies and llama antibodies called nanobodies as well as taking a close look at the balancing act of deciding whether public policy supports reopening business and government fully.
