"When is it socially acceptable to feel sick?"

Description:

The COVID-19 pandemic made many of us aware of what it means to be surrounded by other people. People might look sick and be sick. People might look healthy but be sick. Dr. Patricia Lopes will discuss how the social environment can affect how sick we feel and how being around sick-looking people can affect our bodies.
