On today’s WBFO Brief, we go in-depth on three COVID-related topics. First, reporter Michael Mroziak looks at the COVID “Long-haulers” that continue to work through symptoms months after their infections go away. Albany correspondent Karen DeWitt looks at the statewide changes in mask mandates and how the NYS Capitol is still requiring them. And, Jay Moran has his usual Thursday discussion with Dr. Nancy Nielsen M.D. today looking at the incredibly small number of “breakthrough infections” that occur even after the COVID vaccine.
Also, a look at the push to reopen the US/Canadian border by offering vaccines in the US to Canadians, new misdemeanor charges against four WNY-area people for allegedly being at the Jan. 6 Capitol riots, and Westminster and Enterprise Charter schools sue Buffalo Public Schools to stay open.
