Interview with Nobel Laureate Professor Peter Doherty on the COVID-19 pandemic, the nature of COVID-19, where it came from, it's similarities to influenza other coronaviruses (i.e. SARS, MERS), how infectivity works, what we as citizens can do to stay safe and help minimise the burden on our health systems, achieving rapid responses to pandemics, a strategic infection strategy (variolation) in lieu of an actual vaccination, rejuvenating the thymus to help boost our immunity as we age, computer modelling of disease, and what we can hope to have learned from this ordeal after the pandemic is over.
