America - The Jesuit Review | Coping with anxiety during a pandemic | Behind the Story @AmericaMedia | Uploaded April 2020 | Updated October 2024, 25 minutes ago.
What can we learn from the HIV/AIDS crisis during this current pandemic? Michael O’Loughlin, America’s National Correspondent and Host of the podcast Plague: Untold Stories of AIDS and the Catholic Church, speaks with Father William Hart McNichols, the celebrated artist and iconographer.

As a young priest, Father Bill was in New York as the AIDS crisis became an epidemic. He dropped everything and devoted himself full-time to ministry to people with AIDS.

Father Bill joins us from his home in New Mexico to talk a little bit about the similarities and differences between that plague and this one and offers some ways to cope with the fear and anxiety we’re all feeling.
