Covid Q&A #2 - Panel of Medical Experts

On March 4, 2021, a panel of local medical professionals serving Pelham and our surrounding communities gathered to answer many of our questions on where we stand with the coronavirus today—from vaccines, to variants, to immunity. We are so grateful to our panelists for sharing their time, expertise, and sense of calm with all of us. Joining us were:

Dr. Tracy Breen, Chief Medical Officer, Mt. Sinai West

Dr. John Cahill, Global Health, Infectious Diseases, and Emergency Medicine at Mt. Sinai Hospital; CDC Site Director for Emergency Infectious Disease; Chief Advisory to United Nations for Infectious Disease

Dr. Ada Huang, Deputy Commissioner, Disease Control, Westchester County Department of Health
