Telehealth and COVID-19 Testing

September 03, 2020

Indiana University is one of many institutions that have had to figure out how to conduct large scale COVID-19 testing for students on its campuses. On arrival, around one percent of students tested positive. We talk to a public health official there about how they've been tracking the virus since.

The pandemic also created a sudden and growing need for telehealth--health care services provided over the phone or webcam. We talk about the challenges and benefits of treating patients remotely.
And a new federal order bars evictions for most renters until the end of the year. We ask a legal expert what it means for people in Indiana.
