Episode 16 - Force Health Protection and USAMRIID

In this episode of Breaking Doctrine, our host, Major Chris Parker discusses a different type of warfare, but one that’s become particularly relevant given the events of the past year; and that’s the Army’s efforts at combatting infectious disease. Thanks to COVID-19 this subject has taken center-stage, but the impact of infectious disease on warfare is nothing new. Joined by Colonel E. Darrin Cox, former commander of the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Disease (USAMRIID).
