Not only does Dr. Anthony Fauci of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) grace the cover of this month’s issue of TIME magazine, but he’s adding scientific star power to our brand-new Lungcast™ episode!

Dr. Fauci, one of the world’s most influential people of 2020, talks to chief medical officer Dr. Albert Rizzo about all things COVID19 – from aerosol transmission to vaccine development. Regarding the latter, Dr. Fauci stated, “It is really the advances in platform technology that have allowed us to do things in a matter of months that usually take literally years to do.” To listen to our full interview, in partnership with HCPLive, visit: Lung.org/lungcast
