Gaines, Wilcox: Llamas, Poop, and COVID

by Chris Tachibana | Jul 2, 2020

Got COVID-19 questions? SciShow videos have answers. Christie Wilcox and James Gaines were part of the team that found fun, informative ways to explain how to track SARS-CoV-2 in sewage and how llamas might be the key to treating COVID-19. Christie, James, and the SciShow crew make videos for four channels with science news, history, and explanations. Follow @NerdyChristie @SciShow and @the_jmgaines
