Extra Edition: Covid, Flu Surge After Holidays. (Program Repeat.)
Public health officials expect a rise in Covid-19 cases as millions of people travel and gather indoors for the holidays. Hospitalization admissions are surging, compounded by flu and RSV infections. Analysts comment on how to prevent infection or reinfection, at-home test kits and booster shots. They also talk about reports that people of color are dying at worse rates than previously known and on the emergence of a new and more transmissible Covid variant.
