Description
"Immunocompromised" and "immunosuppressed" are familiar terms now, but they are also umbrellas for many different health situations. The CDC estimates that 7 million U.S. adults are moderately to severely immunocompromised.

Producer Téa Francesca Price shares the pandemic experiences of those with compromised immune systems.
