30,000 Leagues Podcast: Reopening RI’s Communities

Dr. James McDonald (RI Dept. of Health) discusses Rhode Island’s plan for reopening the state. The framework, called “Reopening RI: Charting the Course,” was announced by Governor Raimondo this past week. It describes three phases of progression and the metrics the state will monitor as indicators for when to move from one phase to the next. Dr. McDonald, Medical Director of Rhode Island's Department of Health, recently joined David Yokum, Director of The Policy Lab and Host of 30,000 Leagues, to talk about that framework, and to give a picture of what life might look like over the coming weeks and months, depending on how Covid-19 evolves.
