Pride Month has returned as a celebration, activism, and allyship for the LGTBQ+ community and the right to love and live as one’s true authentic self. But with a number of events already underway, and larger festivals still to come, state public health officials are worried about a resurgence of MPOX (the disease formerly known as Monkeypox). Although MPOX cases have declined in California since their peak last summer, the head of the state’s public health department issued a warning to healthcare providers to remain vigilant to prevent a possible resurgence. CapRadio’s Healthcare Reporter Kate Wolffe joined Insight to tell us more about the state’s concerns and how the LGBTQ+ community in Sacramento County is making access to vaccines easier.

A beloved familiar voice returns to Insight. Interviewer, writer and author Donna Apidone, who is also CapRadio’s former Morning Edition host, stops by to share how she’s expanding her latest book, “Drivetime Meditations” into an audio series and therapeutic project, as well as continuing her mission to help others find purpose. And those are just two of the many things she’s up to.
