As schools reopen campuses, what’s the risk in Pima County?

The director of the Pima County Health Department on what trends suggest.
by Kassandra Lau

As more schools welcome students back into the classroom, the threat of COVID-19 still looms. We discussed current trends in Pima County with Dr. Theresa Cullen, director of the Pima County Health Department. Cullen also explained how the county is working with school districts to track and trace positive cases of the disease.

For insight into how COVID-19 affects children, we got insight from Dr. Chan Lowe, division chief of pediatrics at Banner-University Medicine.
