#25: Follow the Herd with Dr. Harvey Risch

Let's talk “Herd Immunity”. Not the cow kind of herd… think posse, gaggle, squad, or mass …. The Cambridge English Dictionary definition for a whole lot of people! We are diving into the specifics on Covid infection and herd immunity. Hear how we have reached herd immunity long ago in the USA and how the current push is more focused on vaccination rates.

Our guest this week is Dr. Harvey Risch. He is a Professor of Epidemiology in the Department of Epidemiology and Public Health at the Yale School of Public Health and Yale School of Medicine. He  received his MD degree from the University of California San Diego and PhD from the University of Chicago. After serving as a postdoctoral fellow in epidemiology at the University of Washington, Dr. Risch was a faculty member in epidemiology and biostatistics at the University of Toronto before going to Yale.  Dr. Risch is an author of more than 350 original peer-reviewed research publications in the medical literature and those research papers have been cited by other scientific publications more than 44,000 times.
