Summary

On this Daily Coronacast, Alise is joined by friend and comedian Bryan Yang to share what it’s really like to spend weeks in the hospital with a severe case of COVID-19. They start with a conversation about how he might have gotten sick, when things took a turn for the worse, and what it took to get admitted to the hospital. He describes the day-to-day experience for people who have been hospitalized with the virus separated from their loved ones, including how he maintained his sanity in isolation. Finally, Bryan tells us how it feels as a survivor to hear people taking the pandemic lightly and advocating for a rush to reopen the country. Thanks to our sponsors!
