Kristina Talert-Slagle, Ph.D., is Director of the Yale College Health Studies Program and Associate Director of the Yale Institute for Global Health. Like everyone else in Connecticut, she is sheltering at home with her family and practicing social distancing; but unlike most of us, she is an expert on COVID-19. In this video, she answers some basic questions about the disease posed by her daughter, Julia (the director), and other members of their family.
Like many parents around the world, my family and I have spent the last two weeks trying to figure out how to reorganize our lives around the imperative of social distancing.

American democracy is based on the idea that the voices of the people matter. As legislators struggle with difficult issues, trying to balance the needs of conflicting constituencies and solve complicated problems, they need to hear the perspectives of the people most directly affected. This is why they listen to hour after hour of in-person testimony. Written testimony has its place. Studies and charts provide important information; but being in the presence of the people, hearing their passion, and sometimes seeing their tears brings us together as human beings and makes it possible for legislators to make the best decisions.
