Mal was tired of mainstream media misrepresenting COVID-19 and Long COVID, so she picked up a mic and a camera and told the story herself. Thus, Lola Germs was born.

In this episode of Still Here, co-hosts Miles Griffis and Betsy Ladyzhets talk to Lola Germs about her path from online COVID-safer community member to viral science communicator, and the research behind her latest project, “what if everything we thought we knew about disease spread was wrong?” She traces the history of airborne disease science from early miasma theory through germ theory’s overcorrection, the overlooked mid-century research of Mildred and William Wells, and the contemporary scientists who tried (and failed) to get the World Health Organization to act on airborne spread early in the COVID-19 pandemic.
