Co-Hosts Leah Lemm (Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe) and Antony Stately Ph.D. (Ojibwe/Oneida) explore how Indian Country in MN is responding and adapting to the current pandemic health crisis.

Leah and Antony discuss booster shots, third shots, and why it’s important for some people to get it. We also talk about vaccine acceptance and rates in Indian Country.  And we look ahead to what’s happening with the COVID vaccine for our young ones.

Reporter Dalton Walker shares his conversation with Melissa Wentz Opsahl, a pharmacist and vaccine consultant, who has worked at Indian Health Services for many years.

Dr. Antony Stately is the CEO of the Native American Community Clinic.
