Description

The Antigen is back with a special mini-series focused on COVID-19. In this first episode, we’ll share what we’ve discovered from past global health emergencies. What did we learn from Ebola, MERS, cholera, and how does it compare to the current coronavirus? How do we recover? We’ll also wrap up with the latest headlines on Pfizer's response to the crisis. New host Lindsey Dietschi speaks with Dr. David Swerdlow, Clinical Epidemiology Lead for Pfizer Vaccines and infectious disease expert. Prior to Pfizer, David worked at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for 25 years.Episode references:CDC Modeling Efforts in Response to a Potential Public Health Emergency: Influenza A(H7N9) as an Example

Now more than ever, we want to provide factual, science-based information in a digestible format as well as shed light on the role Pfizer is playing during this unprecedented situation. We will look back at past pandemics, outline potential coronavirus treatments in development, and look ahead to life after a crisis. This podcast is powered by Pfizer.
