In this bonus episode, I interview Olubukola (Olu) Abiona, a research fellow in the Vaccine Research Center at the National Institutes of Health. She is a member of the team that produced the first coronavirus vaccine in the United States. In addition to the interview, I review some basic coronavirus virology.
