In this, our 8th COVID-19 podcast, I talk to two of my pediatric colleagues, Sean O’Leary, MD and Robin Larabee, MD who have had COVID-19 and are now recovered. We will discuss their symptoms and disease course in depth in hopes that it provides greater education and context for how different people have experienced COVID-19.

As we move into our second month of the global pandemic most of us know someone who has contracted the SARS-CoV2 virus; this especially probable for you our listeners, as fellow healthcare workers who have many colleagues caring for COVID-positive and exposed patients.

You can go back and listen to our previous coverage on the COVID-19 Pandemic on Season 3, Episodes 31, 36 and 38, 41, 42, 43 and 44.

Sean has joined us several times on the podcast to discuss vaccines and vaccines hesitancy, he is a pediatric infectious diseases physician at Children’s Hospital Colorado and Associate Professor of Pediatrics and Infectious Diseases at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. Sean is also an active spokesperson with the AAP on the topic of vaccines and services as the Director of the Colorado Children’s Outcome Network.

Additionally, we are pleased to have Dr. Robin Larabee join us today as well. Robin is a pediatrician in Denver and partner with Sapphire Pediatrics.
