Outbreak News This Week Radio Show 11-4-18

Crazy things in the media this week, and it's not politics--that's one of the major things I look at on the show today--anti-vaxx article being pulled and the massive Twitter backlash, fear mongering, buffoonish statements concerning infectious diseases crossing the US-Mexico border and warnings not to dress up your chickens for Halloween. In addition, I look at some dengue vaccine news, malaria's rise in Papua New Guinea, typhus in LA and some thoughts from CDC director, Dr Robert Redfield and what keeps him up at night. The Outbreak News This Week Radio Show, the first and only radio program dedicated to infectious disease and health news and information, airs every Sunday at 1 pm ET in the Tampa Bay area on AM 1380 The Biz and online at http://1380thebiz.com/
