Cold and Flu

It is that time of year where you, and everyone else, is coughing and sniffling and sneezing and generally getting gross germs all over the place. That is why for this episode of Relatively Prime Samuel Hansen speaks with Benjamin Morin about infectious disease modeling and the best mitigation strategies those models indicate to deal with disease while minimizing cost, both for individuals and for societies. Fair warning, those best strategies may be depressing and definitely not what Samuel was hoping for. Don't forget to support Relatively Prime on Patreon and make sure Samuel can afford to make rent next month. Download the Episode Subscribe: Apple Podcasts or RSS Music Supermilk
