As the coronavirus outbreak continues to grow, life is getting very different for all of us in Washington State.

We're hunkered down. No school, no dining in restaurants, no going to the bar.

Socializing from afar, apart from our friends and extended families.

Kim Malcolm considers the big picture of this pandemic -- and what we may see in the coming weeks and months -- with Pulitzer Prize-winning science journalist Laurie Garrett.

Her books include The Coming Plague and Betrayal of Trust: The Collapse of Global Public Health.
