About this episode

We begin this episode by discussing our article of the week from the New England Journal of Medicine entitled “Hydrocortisone in severe community-acquired pneumonia.“. In the second half of our episode, we bring a medical eye to popular events. We begin with a discussion about how the federal drug administration recently approved a drug to treat some symptoms of menopause. Then we take a closer look at the affordable care act mandate for preventative care. Last, but not least, we have a conversation about pride month and inequalities that exist in the healthcare system for the LGBTQ+ community and Nirsevimab, an antibody that can help prevent severe symptoms of RSV in infants!
