Malpractice Podcast Sydnee Spruiell Eldridge & Jessica Oswald

This week, Syd and Jess are here to talk all about IVF, fertility treatments, IUI, and all of the other topics that fall under the umbrella of Assisted Reproductive Technology. According to the CDC, about 1 out of every 5 people trying to conceive a child are unable to do so within a year, and that’s what they call infertility. 10-30% of infertility cases are considered unexplained, but science is now playing a huge role in helping people conceive!

This week Syd & Jess are BACK and ready to talk about the mysterious ailment plaguing CIA officers and US Diplomats across the globe - Havana Syndrome. In 2016, American and Canadian diplomats in Cuba began suffering STRANGE neurological symptoms. The debate is still alive regarding whether it was a sonic attack, some kind of environmental exposure, or a case of mass hysteria, but we're here to talk theories!
