Edifying and interesting. Dr. Rowan is obviously very experienced and knowledgeable in this area and genuinely concerned with combating the current COVID crisis through accurate information and proven practices without involving politics and with respect for human lives without impartiality. Glad I took the time out to attend. Hopefully the recording will be available for others to enlighten themselves.
