Episode Synopsis
It will be months, we’re told, before the full vaccine rollout, and thousands more will die. People are being blamed for the dying, but what if the fault lies more with bad public health strategies than with bad citizens? Some scientists propose fighting the virus a new way – a way that doesn’t rest on shutting down of social fabric of society. These new ideas rest on a plan that would let us all know when we’re carrying the virus and would give us the means to isolate ourselves when it matters.
