| 4/7/22 |  Ep 6 Scabies (Pt 2): It started with an itch | Have you been looking for a good reason to not hold strangers' hands anymore? Ever wondered how exactly a parasite can live in your skin for months without you even noticing? Have you ever asked yourself, "How does my skin react to pathogens?" Oh... do I have an episode for you and your inner hypochondriac. This week we'll be covering how the infectious skin disease known as scabies is spread, what the disease itself is like, and how your body valiantly fights against the mite in a tiny microscopic battle of the worlds. And people say science isn't fun. Interested to connect more? Website: www.infectiouscast.com Instagram: @infectiouscast Twitter: @infectiouscast Email: infectiouspodcast@gmail.com | — | |
| 3/24/22 | Ep 5 Scabies (Pt 1) : One more reason to get that rash checked out | In this episode, we'll be covering the first part of a three-part series on our new favourite disease.... SCABIES! For our start to this harrowing journey, we'll be covering everything to do with Sarcoptes scabiei (var hominins), the itsy bitsy mite approximately the size of a grain of salt that causes uncontrollable itching in the bodies of those it afflicts. We're going to talk all about their family tree (Hint: they helps us make cheese AND dust); how they love to use our skin as their own personal metropolis; why exactly these tiny little guys can't live without us; oh, and why humans are to blame for mange in dogs (woof). Throwing a special thanks to the wind for Larry G. Arlian, a professor out of Wright State University, who I SWEAR is the world expert on scabies and contributed to at least 50% of the articles I read.

| 12/12/21 |  Ep 4 River Blindness/Onchocerciasis: One more reason to swat that fly on your sandwich | Ready to really feel your skin crawl? Then this month's episode on Onchocerca volvulus, a parasite that is able to infiltrate into the eye and skin to cause intense itching and blindness, might just be the one for you! We'll learn all about why this communicable disease earned the nickname "River Blindness", its mysterious linkage to seizures, the awesome powers of ivermectin (when it's actually used for diseases it can treat), and how exactly a donkey falling into a river has helped hundreds of thousands of people. Tune in to learn more about the epidemiology, biology, and history of this infectious disease! Website: www.infectiouscast.com Twitter: @infectiouscast Instagram: @infectiouscast | — | |
| 10/29/21 |  Ep 3 Campylobacteriosis: One more reason to hate Canadian Geese | This week we'll take a deeper look into Campylobacter, one of the most prolific bacteria you might have never heard of. We'll cover the myriad of ways that you can contract this little agent (obstacle courses anyone?), why cuddling your pet chicken might just be a one way trip to the toilet, and the chilling reality of a rare outcome of this foodborne illness that can immobilize its victims, Guillain-Barre syndrome. Tune in to learn more about the epidemiology, biology, and history of this intriguing disease! | — | |
| 5/12/21 |  Ep 2 Syphilis: Mercury Saunas and Transatlantic Travel | This week we'll take a sexy journey through history following the evolution of Syphilis from its tenuous origins in the Americas to the havoc it has caused around the globe. Together, we'll learn more about how the bacteria managed to traverse the Atlantic Ocean in 1493, the weird and errr... creative? ways it was treated throughout history, and why you really need to get that little painless bump down there checked out as soon as possible! Tune in to hear it all! | — | |
| 3/5/21 |  Ep 1 Kuru: One more reason why you shouldn‘t eat Grandma | In Episode 1 we're talking about Kuru, AKA "The Laughing Death", the first infectious spongiform encephalopathy (I dare you to say that 10 times fast) to be discovered and described among humans. We'll dive straight into the heart of the Kuru epidemic in Papua New Guinea, describe its mysterious and intriguing origins, and tell you everything you need to know about what a prion is and how they work! | — |
