University of Michigan infectious diseases physician Preeti Malani started the week for us and discussed the ways that people are getting sick this holiday season and how to prevent that from happening to you and your loved ones. Then, our friends at Interlochen Public Radio share two segments: the first is about one of the 20 people to ever hike the entirety of the North Country Trail, the second is about a Frankfort holiday wreath maker. Then, we heard about the United Auto Workers election with the Detroit News’ Daniel Howes. To end the show, Jessica Lannon, a Sparrow Hospital nurse and union representative, talks about the new acquisition by Michigan Medicine.
