You’ve Been Vaccinated, Now What?

On Wednesday, March 31, the Wilton Kiwanis Club has invited the Wilton community to join a Zoom discussion with Dr. Michael Mina speaking from 12:30-1 p.m. in a talk entitled, “You have been vaccinated, now what…. the future of Covid.”

Dr. Mina is a Professor and Epidemiologist at Harvard Public Health and also its Medical School. Kiwanis has invited him to speak to discuss the future of COVID-19 and what to do now if you are vaccinated.

Mina has at least 80 publications and has been interviewed multiple times in the press, including an article in New York Magazine that wrote, “Since the beginning of the pandemic last winter, Harvard’s Michael Mina has been among the country’s most outspoken epidemiologists, urging the public-health establishment toward a more responsive and creative approach to managing the pandemic, particularly focused on deploying rapid COVID tests, similar to home pregnancy tests, to help curb the virus’s spread.”

Mina is also Chief Medical Officer for Detect, a diagnostics company from Guilford, CT that is creating an accurate, fast and convenient molecular COVID-19 test and recruiting test takers to participate in a research study. Detect will be in Wilton on Friday, April 9 offering free PCR testing as well as a Detect test to anyone interested, and a $100-$165 Amazon gift card to those who qualify for the clinical study.
