KUOW Special: Five years later, the COVID pandemic is still with us
On Saturdays, Seattle Now is bringing you the best from the KUOW newsroom…
Five years ago, Washington found itself at the leading edge of a once-in-a-century pandemic.
The rapid spread of COVID, and the lockdowns that followed, shaped our communities, our health and our work for years to come.
It also taught us a lot about ourselves and what it means to be resilient.
In this hour-long special, we reflect on how the pandemic changed our region and how its effects still show up in our everyday lives.
