Milfred and Hands interview Dr. Patrick Remington, a UW-Madison expert on the spread of disease, for the third time since the pandemic began two years ago. Remington, who worked for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and who teaches the public health experts of the future, says science has learned a lot about COVID-19, including the omicron variant, which is spreading fast in Wisconsin. The novel coronavirus isn't going away. But it could go in a variety of different directions, depending in large part on what we humans do. Remington gives advice for going to the Badgers game, for seeing Grandpa and Grandma and living your life while being a responsible citizen who cares about others to limit exposure. Milfred and Hands also seek his opinion on creating a State Street promenade in Downtown Madison, given that al fresco dining slows the spread of disease.
