In this episode we had the opportunity to interview and chat with a local Virologist, Dr. Troy Cline. We were able to ask him his thoughts on what is happening all around us right now.

We go into great depth regarding what exactly the Coronavirus (COVID-19) is, including the symptoms, we talk about how exactly the virus spreads, we also speculate on whether people are over reacting or if this really is the worse case scenario. We also discuss the vaccination processes regarding development and where that now stands. We compared this epidemic to other outbreaks we have had in the past. We also get into what the potential timeline may be for this epidemic, and we discuss if we as the people are infact doing enough.
