Matter of Fact with Soledad O'Brien

FEBRUARY 27, 2021 (5x25)

Air date: Feb 27, 2021

This week on Matter of Fact, we talk to West Virginia’s COVID czar Dr. Clay Marsh. His state has vaccinated nearly 10 percent of its population. That’s one of the highest vaccination rates in the world. What are they doing right? Plus, What does the post-pandemic workplace look like? Elisabeth Reynolds, head of MIT’s Work of the Future, says we’ll probably see a hybrid model of being in the office and working remote. Soledad also talks to her about what we can do to make Americans with fewer tech skills aren’t left behind. And, preserving the unique heritage of the low country. Special Contributor Joie Chen travels into the heart of Gullah culture to show us how descendants of slaves held on to their rich traditions for nearly four centuries.
