This week: Vaccine FAQs and COVID-19 hotline questions

Now that a vaccine is available for COVID-19, Dr. Katie Anderson explains what's most important to know about vaccination.

In this interview, she addresses who should get the shots, the expected side effects, what a new variant of the coronavirus may mean and many other frequently asked questions.

Also on this week's show, the co-directors of Upstate's COVID-19 hotline -- at 315-464-3979 -- discuss the calls their team is fielding. Listen this Sunday, January 10 at 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. for more.
