Chapter 4: Public Health w/ Dr. Allen

All over the news, we hear about drug development and vaccines, masks wearing, and being in a red or purple tier,  but have you considered how this is affecting communities, maybe your community? In this interview with Dr. Kristina Allen, Deputy Director of Public Health from Mariposa county, we discussed coordinated response to the COVID-19 outbreak as well as the mental state of communities that have been affected by COVID-19, and how local governments and rural areas are fighting to keep their community alive. This is chapter 4 of our COVID interview series, in which we interview a series of professionals on different topics related to the pandemic. Tune in for our next chapter, an interview with Dr. Tania Gonzalez, the director for counseling and psychological services (CAPS) at UC Merced , on her experiences with the pandemic!
