I’m guest hosting today’s Your Call at 10am on KALW, speaking with UCSF Dr. Monica Gandhi about how we are going to get out of the pandemic. Dr. Gandhi is the professor of Medicine and Associate Division Chief of the Division of HIV, Infectious Diseases and Global Medicine at UCSF.

The US is now averaging around 160,000 new cases every day. We’ll discuss if booster shots are necessary for all eligible groups even though global vaccine distribution is still lagging far behind. In fact, around 60% of people in higher-income countries are vaccinated compared to only 1% of those in poorer countries. Experts say that this vaccine inequality is epidemiologically irresponsible.
