Summary

For today's special episode, we sat down with Dr. John Ioannidis of Stanford University for an outdoor in-person interview. We take a deep dive into his work from 2000 all the way up to present day: his career from 2000 to 2010, his move to Stanford, and his work on COVID-19. We take a deep dive into his work on COVID-19: IFR, shielding ratio, the question of whether lockdown works, opening schools, and what public health policy should be.
