A Pandemic Sized Check In with Epidemiologist Kat and Christina NP

This episode was recorded 12/10/21.

Today I sit back down virtually with two of my favorite women - Dr. Katrine Wallace and Christina Kim, NP. Epidemiologist Kat has a Ph.D. in epidemiology, has over 15 years of professional research and she currently is a professor at University of Illinois at Chicago. Christinaaaaaaanp is a Nurse Practitioner in outpatient oncology, with a BS in biochemistry. Both women are super active on social media promoting the truth about the Covid-19 pandemic, vaccines, their efficacy and fighting incessant misinformation.

I check in with these women to catch up, talk about how things have been and find out what we know about Omicron. The key take aways are - mitigation measures work, vaccines show effectiveness against this omicron variant, particularly if boosted.

SO, DON'T PANIC AND GET YOUR BOOSTER!

Kat & Christina - Thank you for doing your good work fighting misinformation and spreading truth all in the name of public health and humanity.

Love you ladies!!

XOXOXO

Nicole
