Natural Immunity vs. COVID-19 Vaccine. Which is better?

On this week’s episode of the Public Health Out Loud podcast, co-hosts Dr. Jim McDonald and Dr. Philip Chan are talking about natural immunity. What level of immunity does someone have after getting infected with COVID-19? Are they at risk for getting infected again? Our co-hosts are joined by Dr. Joseph Hogan and PhD candidate Nick Lewis from the Brown University Biostatistics Department. Our guest experts discuss their research findings on how many people in Rhode Island have gotten infected with COVID-19 and then got infected again. They also talk about how COVID-19 vaccines have protected patients from reinfection and the importance of staying up to date with your COVID-19 vaccinations.  Download this week’s episode to learn more.
