In this UCSF Department of Medicine Covid-19 Medical Grand Rounds, we bring back three of our favorite experts to discuss the hottest issues in the pandemic as we enter our 2nd summer. What do we make of the new CDC guidelines on indoor masking? Should there be a push toward vaccine passports? Are we out of the woods when it comes to Covid-19 in the U.S.? What is the current state in India? How are the vaccines performing on the variants? Should kids be vaccinated? And more. The session is moderated by UCSF Department of Medicine Chair Bob Wachter.
