This episode looks at spikes in COVID-19 across the U.S. and its effects on EMS providers, hospital staff, and other medical responders. Dr. Joe Holley shares his expertise and experience in Memphis, Tennessee as the virus spread continues to grow there.

Then we talk with our disaster weather expert Becky DePodwin about recent extreme weather outbreaks including two new hurricanes in the Atlantic and a third forming in the Caribbean. It looks like 2020 will be a record year for extreme weather, too.

Also on the show were co-hosts Sam Bradley, and Jamie Davis.
