Clark Corbin | 10/09/2020

Welcome to episode 229 of the Extra Credit podcast.

This week, a report from the White House Coronavirus Task Force recommends moving to online school in Idaho counties with high case numbers. The report suggests increases in COVID-19 cases among 12-17 year-olds may be linked to school reopening.

The White House task force also recommends moving University of Idaho, Boise State University and Brigham Young University-Idaho to online instruction.

Be sure to check back next week for another new episode.
