The third wave of Covid-19 is gathering force in the Bay Area, so on this edition of KCBS In Depth we take a closer look at the effort to make sure the region is ready for what's coming. 

First up, we'll discuss the latest health orders that have come down this past week and how effective they might be. Then in the second half we'll check in with a major hospital system to hear what they’re doing to prepare as the ICU beds fill up. 

Guests: 

  • Dr. Art Reingold, a professor with UC Berkeley’s School of Public Health where he heads up the Division of Epidemiology 
  • Dr. Stephen Parodi, an infectious disease specialist and an associate executive director with Kaiser Permanente  

Host: Keith Menconi
