University of Akron Microbiologist Discusses Aerosolized Transmission of COVID-19 Featured

Over the weekend, information was put out by the CDC on the spread of COVID-19 through the air, which confused some in the medical and science community, as well as the general public. This information was walked back a little.

Dr. Hazel Barton is a microbiologist at the University of Akron, and she talked on the Ray Horner Morning Show about the airborne spread of COVID-19 and how long it may stay in the air.

Dr. Barton also touched on the possibility of a COVID-19 vaccine, which could be available for the most vulnerable population as early as the end of 2020.
