The Refill #5: Hantavirus, Norovirus and Cruise Ship Medicine

SHOW NOTES The Refill — Ep 27: The Sea Breeze We're refilling your glass. Episode 27 was our deep dive into cruise ship medicine alongside ABC's Dr. Odyssey — what really happens when someone gets sick at sea. We're re-releasing it because two real outbreaks just happened in the same month, on two very different ships, with two very different pathogens. And the science on one of them changed significantly since we first recorded this. Same episode. A lot more urgency. Listen first, then come back for the sources.
