A newly-published report says there's a likely link between COVID and diabetes.  It suggests the virus is creating inflammation in the pancreas. Baylor infectious disease expert Dr. Peter Hotez says this study comes as a growing number of parents question the impact of COVID on kids and aren't getting them vaccinated.  We asked Dr. Browne about the credibility of the study. We also looked at the recent announcement from The U.S. Postal Service, restarting its free at-home COVID-19 tests offer by the end of the month.
