States across the country are reopening one by one, and yet coronavirus case numbers have spiked in the places that got the earliest start.

This week, ³ÉÈËXÕ¾ Radio’s Dave Ross and reporter Aaron Granillo try to figure out: is this safe?

First, a case study of Arizona, which is on track to be the latest coronavirus hotspot.

Then, Dave and Aaron discuss the politics of reopening. When did the virus become a partisan issue?

Finally, we consult several epidemiologists. What’s really safe? And where will we be in the fall?

Guests:

KNAU’s Melissa Sevigny in Arizona

Dr. Angela Rasmussen from The Gee and Ursula Show

from the University of Massachusetts

from the University of Washington
