COVID-19, Vaccines and Organ Donation - a podcast by The Louisiana Organ Procurement Agency

Show Notes: How does COVID-19 impact donation? Can I still be a donor if I've had COVID-19? We welcome Dr. Jonathan Hand, who is the Medical Director of the Transplant Infectious Diseases Program at Ochsner Medical Center and LOPA’s Associate Medical Director. Dr. Hand breaks down all things related to COVID: vaccines, the best sources for accurate information, how transplantation has adapted due to the pandemic, and how lives are continuing to be saved. Then we take a mental health moment, focusing on uncertainty and honor this episode’s donor hero, Myles Soileau.
