COVID Forever? Plus, Broadway’s Back

Ever since the pandemic hit, life has been split into two timelines: before the pandemic and after the pandemic. But when will the “after” truly be after? Or will some version of the coronavirus be around… forever? Sam talks to The Atlantic staff writer Katherine Wu about continuing to live with some version of COVID-19.
