With tighter restrictions, we have moved to recording remotely, so why not talk about the pandemic? In this TIS episode, we cover the few COVID-19-related topics at the forefront of our minds. What is a good mask and should we stop wearing masks after getting vaccinated? What are the modes of transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and what does airborne transmission mean for all of us? And finally, why do people succumb to panic buying? Listen along, and please bear with the lag and not-as-crisp audio!

TLDR: Stay safe and stay calm! Wear your masks and do your best to avoid crowded and poorly ventilated areas.
