Infectious Disease & Vaccines with Dr. Anusha Viswanathan, MD - Episode 88

For this episode, I am joined by Dr. Anusha Viswanathan, MD, pediatric infectious disease specialist. Dr. Viswanathan and I discuss bacteria, viruses, signs & symptoms, fevers, antibiotics, antibiotic resistance, vaccines, vaccine hesitancy & denial, and Anusha’s own podcast with Diana Leygerman, “Everyone Deserves Sunshine,” which is about the HBO Max show, Heated Rivalry. Outbreaks of diseases that have been under control for decades are popping up all over the United States because of vaccine hesitancy. Dr. Anusha explains the scientific legitimacy of vaccines and why this poses a danger to public health.
