Library- And Here We Are Now: COVID-19

This is a virtual Zoom program.

We have explored how the country dealt with the 1918 Pandemic, and how mass vaccinations eradicated polio in the U.S. in the 1950s. We are now in the midst of conquering Covid-19 with mass vaccinations. The information about the virus and the vaccines has been confusing since the pandemic began over a year ago. Join our panel of experts for a discussion of the latest information on the vaccine rollout in Kansas and medical concerns with the virus and the vaccine, moderated by Ken Miller, Public Information Officer for the City of Lansing:

• Dr. Lee Norman, Director of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment
• Sabato Sisillo, M.D., Pulmonologist and Medical Director at Providence Medical Center
• Prashanth Katrapati, M.D., Cardiologist and Medical Director at Saint John Hospital

This program is a collaborative partnership with the public libraries in Atchison, Basehor, Bonner Springs, Lansing, Leavenworth, Linwood, and Tonganoxie. You will have the opportunity to submit questions for the speakers through your registration confirmation email.
