I am especially excited about this podcast because I get to interview my wonderful husband, Dr. Peter Wang. :) Dr. Peter is currently a pediatrician for Stanford Children's Health in California. He has 30+ years of experience and I thought he was the perfect person to bring on the show to discuss the rapidly popular topic: COVID19, coronavirus, SARS2, etc.  Whatever you want to call it, this fast-growing pandemic we are all battling together.
