The declaration of a pandemic triggered a massive shutdown of our economy. Starting next week the National Guard will stand down after stepping up to help the counties and state with the health emergency. We talked to Brigadier General Moses Kaoiwi Jr. about what the pandemic taught us.

This interview aired on The Conversation on March 11, 2022. The Conversation airs weekdays at 11 a.m. on HPR-1.
