What Dr. Tammy Penhollow can say in an interview:

Every individual has a different risk of contracting COVID-19, and that risk level is not static but changes based on the activities and choices of the individual.
We’ve learned what underlying health factors put us at increased risk and they include: advanced age, lung disease, a weakened immune system from cancer, autoimmune disease disease, vitamin deficiencies, diabetes, and corticosteroid use.
We are aware of high risk exposure through work—”front line” store clerks, delivery drivers, healthcare workers, and police/fire/EMS. What we’re not sure of is how to address reengaging with the world as the economy begs for participation, and as people themselves are yearning for social contact after months of distancing.

On top of the Coronavirus pandemic, the flu season is here too. Beginning in early fall to mid-spring, the number of diagnosed cases of the influenza virus begins to rise.
