In the Arena – with Tom McCarthy, COVID Response Unit
Each week Joe Paolino, Jr. interviews people of interest on his program, “In The Arena”. The show airs at 7am on Sundays on ABC6.

McCarthy and Paolino talk about the vaccines, readiness and hesitancy in Rhode Island and how well we are doing with vaccination rates in our state. They’ll talk about vaccinating young people (5-11), and what the system will be to do that statewide.
