Customer Reviews
Dull presentation of interesting stuff
This podcast is only topical by accident, but the non-pharmacological control methods for pandemic influenza and implications for coronavirus was really good, I understand mask use now. Thanks to the professor from Hong Kong for saying something “scary” and putting it out there, and thanks EID for going there, please take more risks like this in future. Descriptions of cover art episodes don’t work in an audio format, please drop these!
Robotic and now mislabelled
EID is a great journal, one of a kind, goes where no one else goes etc. So why the producers of this podcast have felt the need to script every single remark is inexplicable. As of 2012 what despite the robotic interview style was still highly informative has become a meaningless dialogue for the general public. "can you explain what an anti-viral is?" "Sure. And thanks for asking. I'd be glad to" Hopefully things will return to just plain dull soon. If it remains dull and dumb it's not worth listening to
