After Briahna interviewed Dr. Vinay Prasad last month, some listeners — along with tweeters from further afield — recommended other COVID experts to offer a different view. This week, Briahna interviews one of those people: Dr. Justin Feldman, a social epidemiologist from Harvard’s School of Public Health. She’s also joined by Jamie Seltzer, Director of Scientific and Medical Research at #MeAction. I asked them about Prasad’s central claim that advice around boosting requires more nuance as we learn more about the limitations of vaccines, how long COVID factors into policy planning, and what it even means these days to “trust science” now that the CDC has gotten so much wrong.
