Bacteria? Eating MY Flesh? | LeechFest Ep 43

A short and sweet episode for you this month- no mucking about with this one. We discuss flesh-eating bacteria, every tabloid's favourite germ to fear monger about. Salem covers the medical and biomedical part, specifically what causes flesh-eating disease, how the disorder manifests and what to expect if you end up having it, and Mia talks about how we came to learn more about this condition (and also delivers a long rant about medical doctors half-assing the history section in their papers). Enjoy!
