Local, USA: Pandemic in Seattle
Premieres on SO PBS World Monday, Sept. 7 at 6 p.m.

With exclusive access to the Seattle and King County public health director, viewers will get a behind-the-scenes look at how public health cared for its most vulnerable in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. They will see how local officials scrambled to stop the spread of the disease, tracked and isolated those who became ill, and educated people about what they could do to help. This powerful story is shared through the experiences of two families especially vulnerable to the threat of the virus: the homeless and the elderly.
