Parents around the country will soon have the chance to get younger kids vaccinated against COVID. The question is how many will actually do so. On the latest episode of For The Win, Yochi speaks with Dr. Leana Wen — a Washington Post contributing columnist, CNN analyst, and former Baltimore health commissioner — about how the COVID fight is being slowed by a “pandemic of misinformation,” how the backlash to COVID mandates could lead parents to reject other vaccinations as well, and the cold reality that the pandemic may be with us well into the future.
