Voyage of the Damned: A Cruise through the Coronavirus Epidemic Remains to be Seen

In this episode, we delve accurately if irreverently into the Covid-19 epidemic.  It’s everything you’ve always wanted to know (and probably a few things you didn’t) about how viruses reproduce, or where they hide when they’re not causing us trouble.  Along the way, we misidentify the inventor of PCR and riff on the exotic bathroom tissues of Japan and Australia, find out why that surgical mask may not be the protection that you were hoping for, and ring the changes on yeast, Yiddish, and why Batman is always patient zero.
