0:00.0 | Hello everybody and welcome back to Revolutionary Left Radio. On today's episode we have a guest |
0:10.7 | on to talk about really the science of COVID-19 and where it's at right now. One of the big problems |
0:17.6 | with a pandemic like this is because the virus's new information comes out slowly and as the pandemic |
0:25.2 | unplays out we start to get better and better understandings of it which can lead to a lot of |
0:29.6 | misinformation, a lot of sort of conspiratorial skepticism which we see a lot of around the issues |
0:35.2 | of masks and even people on the right calling COVID a hoax overall. So I figured it was a really |
0:41.8 | important thing to cover and really nail down where the science is at this moment and so today |
0:47.5 | we have on Henry to do just that. Henry would you like to introduce yourself and tell people sort |
0:51.6 | of who you are and what your background is? Sure, Brett, thanks for the introduction. I'm |
0:56.4 | my name's Henry Huckamacki. I'm a graduate researcher of Immunobiology with my focus is on |
1:02.8 | Ebola virus but I work in a lab of viral immunology so I am relatively well versed in overall |
1:09.4 | viral immunology in regards to how I've been playing a part in this pandemic so far. This pandemic |

1:36.0 | and I got stuck here in the US and I've been stuck here ever since so I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. |
1:40.4 | I'm not kidding. But yeah, since I've been unable to get back to the lab and continue with my work |
1:47.6 | I've been doing appearances on the David Feldman show and writing some articles and whatnot |
1:54.1 | to try to break down the science of COVID for people because as you mentioned there's a lot of |
1:58.8 | misinformation out there and even beyond the misinformation we sadly don't have as many good |
2:04.3 | science reporters as we should or even as we used to in the country and so there's just not |
2:10.1 | that kind of information available in a digestible way for the public and so I've tried to |
