As virus season kicks into high-gear--between colds, the flu, and Covid-19--there's another virus affecting our most-vulnerable populations that you may not think about--and that is RSV (respiratory syncytial virus). In fact, this particular virus sidelined renowned actress and executive producer, Jennifer Beals. After her experience with RSV, she became a spokesperson for GSK this October -- which is RSV Awareness Month. Beals -- known for her iconic role in the film "Flashdance" and the T.V. series, "The L Word" -- shares her story with Nicole. Also joining this conversation is Dr. Leonard Friedland, the Vice President and Director of Scientific Affairs and Public Health for GSK in North America. He details what preventative measures are available, and what we need to be on the look out for to keep our families and loved ones safe. It's a quick listen packed with a lot of great health information!
