As a retired registered nurse who worked in the operating room during the pandemic, I appreciate this discussion about preparing for pandemics. Looking forward to reading "The Big One".
Keep up the good work!
I agree with every word of Shanny Nott’s review. I, too, make sure to catch every episode and have since April 2021.
