This hour, Vermont state epidemiologist Patsy Kelso answers questions about COVID-19.

COVID-19 case rates, hospitalizations and deaths are declining in Vermont, and health officials say they expect the numbers to keep falling. As the state enters into the endemic phase of COVID-19, there are still questions about how to keep older Vermonters and those with compromised immune systems safe. Do you have a family member you are still worried about? Do you have questions about masking, testing or boosters going forward? We want to hear from you. Send your questions to VermontEdition@VPR.org or listen live at noon Wednesday.

Our guest is:

  • Patsy Kelso, Vermont's state epidemiologist

Broadcast live on Wednesday, March 2, 2022 at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
