A year after its arrival in Indiana, headlines around COVID-19 are revolving around vaccine distribution, new variants, and mountains of public health data.

Today we talk about recent COVID-19 trends and the vaccine rollout in Indiana. We find out what experts know about these new coronavirus variants, and how they might affect Hoosiers. And we talk about what could be done to stop a pandemic like this from happening again, and how much longer it'll be until things are back to normal.
