In today's episode, we welcome Dr. James Segars, the director of the Division of Reproductive Science and Women's Health Research at Johns Hopkins. 

In our conversation, Dr. Segars highlights key takeaways from the ASRM COVID-19 Task Force updates. We talk about the CDC's revised guidelines on close contact and the use of cloth masks as well as strategies for healthcare workers who have been exposed to COVID-19. The discussion also emphasizes the importance of mental health and provides guidance for managing the mental health crisis caused by the pandemic. Furthermore, we explore the risks associated with COVID-19 in pregnancy, along with the promising development of vaccines.
