About this listen

The CDC updated their covid guidance for community settings last week, with a focus on meeting people where they are and living with some degree of COVID-19 circulating in communities for the foreseeable future. The CDC is expected to release updated guidance for specific settings like healthcare and travel in the coming weeks. 

For more on what this tells us about where we are in the pandemic, KCBS Radio news anchors Melissa Culross and Eric Thomas spoke with Nancy Bristow, a professor of history at the University of Puget Sound who's studied the 1918 Influenza pandemic. She wrote the book "American Pandemic: Lost Worlds of the 1918 Influenza Pandemic."
