COVID-19 is transforming the student experience in ways that are still coming into focus. In this episode, KCSB's Grace Aldrich - a student who has been tracking the pandemic since well before California's governor issued stay-at-home orders - speaks with her friend and fellow Gaucho, Joshua, who tested positive for COVID-19 last week and is self-isolating in student housing. You'll also hear from Dr. Ali Javanbakht, Medical Director at UCSB Student Health, to find out more about COVID-19 and what makes this virus more dangerous than a common cold or the flu.
