    Samhita and Thomas Gidney discuss the Spanish flu of 1917-1920, a global pandemic that could provide analogies for the current Covid 19 crisis. They discuss how the Spanish flu has been often forgotten in history, and how the flu compares and contrasts with today’s pandemic.

    Ep 2: COVID-19 Convo with Vinh-Kim Nguyen

    Did you know that by social distancing, you can literally save lives? In this second Health Intl podcast episode on the COVID-19 pandemic, Professor Vinh-Kim Nguyen, co-director of the Global Health Centre at the Graduate Institute and VP of MSF Switzerland, calls in from Montreal (where he flew to be on the frontlines of the response to the outbreak) to chat with students Esther Pak and Ezekiel Boro about COVID-19 and age, vegetarianism, vitamins, immunity and soap. They also talk epidemiology (and a bit of math) and how real the reported global numbers are, as well as what we can all do to help each other during these trying times. Professor Nguyen is an HIV and Emergency physician and medical anthropologist who has been on the frontlines of the Ebola epidemic as MSF team leader, and since 1994 has worked extensively with community organizations responding to the HIV epidemic in West Africa as a trainer and physician.
