Arizona Voices Of COVID-19: Karen Walsh And Her Patient, Ann

In the Voices of COVID-19 series, this week, The Show has heard from people in the at-risk group we’ve heard so much about. Those who — because of some kind of condition, seen or unseen — are most vulnerable to disease.

Hear the story of a woman named Ann. 

Ann is a patient enrolled in a clinical trial at the HonorHealth Research Institute in an attempt to treat her stage 4 pancreatic cancer. And, despite her condition, she told us COVID-19 is not her most pressing concern.

The Show also talked to one of her nurses, Karen Walsh, whose job has changed quite a bit since the pandemic took hold.
