The pandemic is still with us. There’s COVID-19, the delta variant and now the Omicron, which was detected on Wednesday for the first time in the United States.
While the continued news of the coronavirus taxes our patience, not to mention our healthcare systems and economy, the shadow of the pandemic also inspired anxiety in many adults and children.

Guests:
- Joseph Stevenson, artist and author
- Mimi Chenfield, author and teacher
