Call your grandma. It's common to feel down during the pandemic, and one way to feel better--do something for others in your community, even as simple as call your grandma.  Some people benefit from such service, while others who continuously give and neglect themselves, need to prioritize their own self care over that of other people.  Which are you?

Years ago Kat Hurd flirted with Juan Pablo on the Bachelor. And then she leveraged those 15 minutes of fame to raise $175,000 for charity--not social media followers or bottle water endorsements. Dr. Larry interviews Kat Hurd - she had a big why, used her talents, and left a personally meaningful legacy.

COVID19 looks different to an ICU nurse, an ER doctor and a farmer. A summary and commentary on Trump's course with COVID-19. And you need to prioritize your mental health, now more than ever.

People have torn down 5G cell phone towers, thinking they are the cause of COVID and are harming people. Is there any evidence to substantiate this or is it pure conspiracy theory? We did the research for you, and this week continue our dissection of the COVID-19 conspiracy theories that, I am convinced sadly--are ultimately killing people. What is 5G? How is it thought to cause COVID19? Is 5G harmful in any way?  How do we know a 5G cell phone tower causes COVID19? We explain the research in answering these questions and debunk the 5G COVID Myth; I did develop some compassion for the conspiracy theorist on part of this one

Before taking Q&A later in the show, I give you some good news about COVID19 and the world, since it seems like all we hear is negative and sometimes I tell the worst stories. Then Facebook and the gram for your Q&A. 

I ground this for you from my perspective in the ER, and argue that faceless policy discussions are part of the problem.  Also, COVID19 fatigue and burnout, what do we do when it’s not getting better? 

Let’s talk vaccine... It’s all over the news so we’re going to take a step back and cover: How will a vaccine end COVID19? What is a VACCINE? How do vaccines work with the COVID-19 Anatomy? When will a vaccine be ready and how is it going to help us end COVID-19 and get life back to normal? What are the vaccines that are under development right now and how do we know if it’s safe? 

The number one question that I have received throughout this pandemic, both as an ER Doctor and a Medical Expert is: “When is this going to end? When is this pandemic going to be over? When is COVID going to go away?” And it’s a question I have refused to answer, until now - for you. We have done our research, looked at the experts and ready to provide you with my best guess. Disclaimer: It is JUST a guess. While discussing these predicaments and estimate, we look at the science and the process that is needed and going to take place to get us from today’s US 50,000 new COVID19 daily cases with 1,000 deaths, down to where it’s just about negligible like New Zealand, a country with no deaths for three consecutive months and a case or two every day - that is the goal. 

What do we know, what do we need to know? What we need and don't have -- long term data on college athletes regarding COVID19 and Myocarditis.  But we DO HAVE cases starting to emerge over the summer, including the following, all 3 whose seasons ended because of developing the heart condition “myocarditis” from COVID19. They include Georgia State QB Mikele Colasurdo, Indiana Offensive Lineman Freshman Brady Feeney and Boston Redsox pitcher Eduardor Jose. Let's take a better look at this. 

Third week in a row where the US averaged over 1,000 COVID19 deaths a day. Good news: US cases declining and hospitalizations continue to fall, though they are orders of magnitude higher than most of the world. We run through the numbers, including a COVID spike in India and a sudden outbreak in South Korea and discuss how COVID19 affects LatinX community. Deep dive into a highly technical topic in plain language - the ACE-2 receptor explained - as scientists believe these receptors are the "docks" the coronavirus parks into, and explain much about how the virus affects the body.
