Encouraging trends in Olmsted County's battle against Covid-19
On this week's edition of the podcast, we hear from Graham Briggs and Meaghan Sherden — director and lead epidemiologist, respectively, at Olmsted County Public Health — about the latest Covid-19 numbers for our area. New case numbers have dropped to levels not seen since May, leading both officials to believe the situation in Rochester is consistently improving — although the time to stop wearing masks and social distancing is still far away. Their thoughts on what's driving the improved statistics, plus a round-up of other top stories from the week, including a possible ethics investigation into the office of Jim Hagedorn and a few tips from a Mayo Clinic pediatrician on helping your kids get back to school safely — all included in the latest edition of the Rochester Rundown.
As a reminder, new episodes of the Rochester Rundown can also be found on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher and other leading podcast services.
