Topics covered in this interview:
Nicholas, in your lens, what's the pandemic been like so far? (01:29)

Has the world been a smaller place really impacted the spread of the disease? (5:35)

What's surprising you so far about this pandemic? (8:16)

There have been lessons from Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan. Do you have a sense of what those lessons were? (13:47)

What do you think the next two, three months look like? (19:30)

A vaccine is a year away, at the earliest and even then it may not be that effective. Flu vaccine is not that effective. I don't want to advocate for the, so-called, varicella parties, the chicken pox parties of the 70s and 80s, but is there a time when you begin to expose greater and greater portions of the population, or will that happen naturally? (22:57)

Hospitals need rapid testing. We also need serological testing for healthcare workers, because we need to know if they're immune. (25:53)

When you look at the summer months before we even get to the fall, I have no idea what's going to happen with colleges or schools. They may be closed for this academic year. But can you see some relaxation in some portions of the country of this kind of social distancing as we move into the late spring, early summer? (27:42)

When there's a relaxation in the social distancing, how do you think the different age groups are going to behave? (31:30)

What has been the role of the World Health Organization (WHO) in this pandemic? (38:34)

We know children are getting infected, but children's hospitals around the country are not reporting much disease. Any instincts about why that could be? (40:00)

What does a second wave look like? (43:37)
