  • Where is the ID discussion?

    I downloaded this podcast expecting updates regarding diagnostics treatment and resistance patterns in infectious disease. Or what is essentially new in research. However, almost every episode is discussing social issues that are completely tangential of the science of ID. What is the point of this podcast?

  • Biased

    Biased. Most do not read the data to really provide appropriate recommendations. Very generalized statements. I’m disappointed.
