The Trufants get real with Nurse Alice about conspiracy theories, misinformation, fear-mongering, and Black health in general. Nurse Alice works in the ICU in Los Angeles where she has treated COVID patients on the frontlines throughout the pandemic. She answers questions like, 

"Are you seeing more vaccinated or unvaccinated patients in the ICU with severe COVID?" 

"What would you say to Black people who are wary of the vaccine due to historical racism and mistreatment of our people?"

“We see memes and social media posts all the time making all sorts of crazy claims about the vaccines and the pandemic. What advice do you have for people who see these posts and freak out? What would you say to the people who post such things and spread misinformation?”

“Should pregnant women getting vaccinated?”

“Should we vaccinate children even though they are the age group least affected by Covid? Would you vaccinate your young child? Why?”

“How long are you immune after recovering from Covid? Do Covid survivors need the vaccine since they have natural immunity?”

"When it comes to the black experience - what factors have contributed to the mistrust between the black community and the United States healthcare system?"
