as posted by the channel

Covid-19 isn’t quite done with us yet, but virologists are urging governments around the world to start preparing for the next pandemic.

Dr. Angela Rasmussen, a virologist with the Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organization at the University of Saskatchewan, joins this episode to explain where the next virus is likely to come from, and how to get in front of it.
