On April 27, 2026, WISH-TV medical expert Dr. Janelle Gordon highlighted the ongoing mental health impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly on young people, six years after its initial outbreak, while also offering practical methods for managing stress. Previously, on January 19, 2026, Dr. Janel Gordon, also a WISH-TV medical expert, addressed a study published in January in The Lancet. This study, which reviewed 43 instances of prenatal acetaminophen exposure, concluded there is no evidence linking the medication to autism, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, or intellectual disabilities, thereby reinforcing current medical guidance for managing pain and fever during pregnancies. This follows the December 11, 2025 announcement that WISH-TV became available for live streaming on YouTube TV, offering Central Indiana viewers additional ways to access its local news, weather, and sports content under the CW8 channel listing.
