Relisten Now: Here Come the Vaccines Again! (with Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear)

In the Bubble with Andy Slavitt

With Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshears in the national spotlight as a potential candidate for Kamala Harris's vice president, we wanted to revisit this conversation from 2021 with Andy Slavitt.

As vaccine distribution continues to ramp up around the country, Andy calls up Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear to understand how it’s all working on the ground in a state like Kentucky. Listeners have a chance to get “in the bubble” with Andy and Governor Beshear to hear their candid conversation about leading through this challenging moment, as well as how best to support communities as we work together to end the pandemic. Dr. Lisa is joined by Cara McNulty of Aetna and CVSHealth to talk tactics for reaching people in communities for their health care needs.
