Edit: This episode was recorded in May 2021, prior to the spread of Delta. Vaccines remain effective against this variant, but two doses are required for optimal protection, and given the increased transmissibility of this particular variant, mask-wearing is still recommended, even if vaccinated.
Some of us are fully vaccinated with two doses, some of us are partially vaccinated with one dose, and some of us (many of us) are still waiting for a vaccine to become available. For those of us who are lucky enough to be partially vaccinated, what does it mean? What can we do, what can we not do, where do masks fit in all of this, and why is vaccine equity important? Tune in to listen to our fast facts episode this week about all of this and more.

Science communications with Dr. Beth Linas
What is science communications?
Everyone is intelligent, everyone is able to understand things, everyone wants to understand the chaotic world we've lived in for the past year and a bit. Science communications, then, is the translation of science into a message and a language that everyone understands. And that's an important piece of fighting this pandemic.
Dr. Beth Linas, epidemiologist, and expert science communicator, joins us on this week’s episode to chat about science communications, and helps debunk a couple of COVID myths that have been floating around since the beginning of the pandemic.
