Covid-19 in SBC: Interview with Dr. Jaya McSharma
April 5, 2020 2:42PM CDT
Covid-19 cases continue to rise in Shreveport-Bossier City, and the questions keep coming. Why are the numbers rising? If there’s a low mortality rate, why are we seeing so many people dying? Are only those over a certain age at risk? If there are enough tests, why aren’t we testing every single person?
To answer some of these questions, and to discuss what’s happening in the hospitals in our area, we called Dr. Jaya McSharma. If that name sounds familiar to you, it’s probably because you’ve seen her at Film Prize, acting, and modeling in addition to being a doctor locally! Listen to the interview HERE:
Dr. McSharma’s credentials include:
MD (LSUHSC Shreveport, 2006)
Board-certified Family Medicine Physician (2009)
Hospitalist Physician since 2010
The fun stuff she does:
Filmmaker, Writer, Producer & Actress
Top 20 Louisiana Film Prize 2018, 2019
