The Noozhawk webinar was very interesting and it was very helpful to hear from the medical panel and not just government officials. I appreciated the fact that they all acknowledged the shortcomings of the vaccine rollout, but I feel much more confident about our situation after hearing their candid assessment of the positive trends. Thank you for putting it on.
