114: Rhesus monkey shortage

from Far From Fact · host Husein Merchant and Keshav Naidu

The lads are back, Husein informs us about the joys of pregnancy as part of the personal diaries section, even as Keshav informs us about a setback in his quitting journey. The big story for the week is a COVID-19 piece where American scientists are finding it hard to test vaccines due to a shortage in Rhesus macaques. This leads to an interesting development, where labs are deciding to skip directly to human trials. Catch the nincompoopery masquerading as scientific journalism. Only two animals were hurt in the making of this episode, and that’s because you didn’t send them any love on Insta. + Music credit - Simon D’Souza+ Write to us - [email protected] + Follow us https://www.instagram.com/farfromfact/
