Those interested attending via Zoom must register in advance and can do so here. The panel will also be broadcast and livestreamed through various platforms. 

“This discussion will help provide a better understanding of the science involved in fighting the pandemic and give community members the opportunity to ask any questions they may have on the topic,” Health Commissioner Jett said. “Thank you to all who helped to organize this event and to the panelists for sharing their expertise with Brookline residents.”

  • Thomas Tsai, assistant professor at the Harvard School of Public Health and advisor to the US Department of Health and Human Services

WHAT:

A panel of local health experts will come together later this month to help provide an understanding of the science that goes into combating the COVID-19 pandemic.

The panel will be moderated by WBUR’s Carey Goldberg and panelists will discuss ways to end the pandemic, including a vaccine that is in development. Panelists will also answer selected questions submitted ahead of time, which can be sent in here.
