How To Communicate Risk And Data Better

In this podcast, I chat with Ram Prasad about the communication of risk and data. We are in the midst of a pandemic and we are bombarded on a daily basis with a lot of articles/tweets that talk about vaccines, infections, re-infections, mortality rates, etc. But how do we make sense of all this information? What is the right way to assess a situation? Ram tries to explain this to us through his experience of working in the field of Behavioral Science.
