When schools and businesses started closing their doors at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Baltimore communities were clamoring for information they could trust. That prompted local health leaders to launch a series of group phone calls with the community.
Five years later, those calls have transitioned into a weekly podcast: “The Community Calls with Dr. G and Kimberly,' hosted by Dr. G. and Ms. Kimberly Hailey-Fair.
For a look at the evolution of the podcast and how it’s keeping communities informed, we talk with Dr. Panagis Galiatsatos of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and co-Director of Medicine for the Greater Good, and with Reverend William Johnson Jr, Pastor of Sharon Baptist Church and Community Chaplain of Johns Hopkins Health System, who provides spiritual closings for each episode.
