Summary

In his weekly clinical update, Dr. Griffin discusses how the pandemic may have effected our trust in physicians and hospitals and if waiting longer to make strain selection for the seasonal influenza vaccine would be advantageous before reviewing the recent statistics on SARS-CoV-2 infection, how different CVODI-19 vaccines effect the cardiovascular system, if the a third of either COVID-19 mRNA vaccine is effective, where to find PEMGARDA, if convalescent plasma, what do when healthcare workers succumb to SARS-CoV-2 infection, and the long term consequences of a SARS-CoV-2 infection on human health including incidences of diabetes, respiratory problems, hearing loss and maternal-fetal health.
