Malaria: The Empire Strikes Back | LeechFest Ep 46

This month we're talking about malaria! This episode is quite similar to our early ones, in that we take a disease, talk about its pathology/ treatment, the role it has played in history, and then look toward the future. None of this politics crap we've been doing lately, just pure, unadulterated medical history. Although, we do complain about imperialism and also people being racist towards the Chinese a bit, so perhaps just a bit of politics.

Om Podcasten

Hey! We're Salem (Raluca in the early episodes) and Mia, and we're a medical scientist and a historian who put their brains together to create this medical history podcast! We make content about anything we find interesting that is at the intersection between medicine/ medical science and history, with a queer and/ or social justice flair.Support the show: patreon.com/LeechFestPodcast
