Health Matters is a weekly radio show sponsored by the Medicine Center Pharmacy on WHBC 1480 AM in Canton, Ohio. This episode pharmacists Brad White and Paul White discuss the current status of COIVD-19 pandemic with Jim Adams, Health Commissioner for Canton City Public Health.

When the covid-19 pandemic hit the United States in early 2020, it felt scary – but also temporary. All these months later, we are feeling stressed, frustrated and perhaps angry that it isn’t over. On top of that, it is difficult to feel like we are getting clear, consistent information to make the best decisions about our health. This morning we are fortunate to share this time and space with Jim Adams to share the facts and current recommended guidance regarding Covid-19. We also want to thank Jim and the staff of the Canton City Public Health for their tireless efforts on behalf of the health and safety of our entire community.
