Thursday, December 10th, we had the opportunity to speak with Dr Peter Pappas, an Infectious Disease specialist at the University of Alabama Birmingham. Parishioners had the chance to submit questions in advance, and also during the Zoom meeting. Here is the recording of the Zoom event. Dr Pappas answered questions about the vaccines, the 3 Ws, and what's going on in Alabama.

Thank you, Dr Pappas!
