Liz Wolfson speaks with Dr. Ezelle Sanford III, a medical historian and post-doctoral fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, and Chelsey Carter, a medical anthropologist and PPh.D.MPH candidate at Washington University in St. Louis, about the novel coronavirus known as COVID-19. Topics discussed include: how Sanford and Carter are thinking about historical precedents for COVID-19, such as the 1918 "Spanish Flu" pandemic and the ongoing HIV/AIDS pandemic; their recent co-authored article addressing the role of race, class and other social identities in responses to COVID-19, with particular focus on the St. Louis region; and what, as social scientists and historians, they're paying attention in the media coverage of the virus.
