As Idaho education leaders struggle through adapting classrooms and technology to rise to the COVID-19 challenge, there are still so many unknowns. For doctors working to combat Idaho's unprecedented surge in cases since the pandemic began, there's reason to be concerned about the risks for students, faculty and staff as the fall semester draws near.

- Dr. David Pate, a member of the governor’s Coronavirus Task Force, and former CEO of St. Luke’s Health System
- Dr. Patrice Burgess, Regional Chief Medical Informatics Officer for St. Alphonsus Hospital and a member of the Governor's coronavirus testing task force
- Dr. Kenny Bramwell, Medical Director for St. Luke's Children's Hospital
