Osterholm now sounding like Tracy Beth Hoeg “I am 71 yrs old and had long COVID for months but since I exercise there is no need for respiratory protection in crowds!” Brain fog or peer pressure?

Thank you for being a reliable information source on COVID. It is so hard to get trustworthy information. I look forward to every episode! You have a magnificent show and team!

A couple of years ago, I wrote this about this podcast: “Dr. Osterholm sounds like one of the kindly old ministers in the Minnesota-based church I grew up in, which is comforting in a way. The hard-headed science he presents is often not so comforting but it’s still there whether we want to hear...Read full review »

Are you able to explain with data the number of excess deaths and white blood clots? Who is at risk?

It’s hard to find information about Covid now so this is a much appreciated resource.

I’ve listened to every episode from the beginning. Dr. Osterholm is my trusted sources for pandemic news. Thank you to the entire team.

Excellent, excellent information! Dr Osterholm and guests cover all subjects and questions related to infectious disease with measured, empirical and emphatic advice. I will do my part in this struggle to get my family and friends to vaccinate and mask as much as I can.
Mike ,not Doctor via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/08/24
Good natured expert Dr Osterholm generously shares accurate information along with weekly humour, stories and favorite song lyrics. Very accessible for non-med folk like myself. However, there is very little emphasis on the longterm impact of repeated covid infections. Almost everyone I know...Read full review »
kimtart via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/29/23
The message of this podcast as I hear it is be afraid, stay afraid, get the modRNA injection, and get the boosters. Pay attention to what the host doesn’t address. Negative information about the “vaccine” that is being discovered and entering public knowledge? Early treatment options, known...Read full review »

Really appreciate the best of this podcast/ the kindness, the broad, experienced take on the pandemic as well as periods of intense data delivery/ guidance on how to navigate from a consistent perspective in a world where we disagree so dramatically on what is happening. Really wonder what...Read full review »

Every week there are rumors and News items about Covid 19 and other lesser known infectious diseases. I wait intently for the bi-weekly “Osterholm Update” for a thorough science-based review of the latest developments.
grdavis53 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/29/23
As many places stop paying attention, this podcast continues to inspire and inform. Dr. Osterholm is well qualified to produce it, and gives us data we can rely upon and use in our lives to help us handle this pandemic.
Maajic via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/22/23
I love getting the accurate info from doctor o. Even at this late point in the pandemic.
alexanderdownsaaa via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/25/23
Valuable and up-to-date information for those of us still interested in the state of the pandemic. Sincere thanks to Dr. Osterholm for his painstaking research, analysis… and compassion. His podcasts reveal that he is a man of science with a kind and generous heart. His detailed narrative of his...Read full review »
Robin from NY via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/09/23
I hate to downgrade my feelings on this podcast. I have listened since the beginning, and I can no longer follow Dr. Osterholm’s advice. It is pretty much down the line CDC recommended advice that hasn’t changed since the beginning. I now follow the advice of the FLCCC. I cannot believe that...Read full review »

Great up to the minute data and insights. It’s important to be reminded that the virus is not done with us and how that conclusion is drawn, and what to do with this information. I enjoy the variety in the manner of presentation each week. The various parts of the show are quite different and...Read full review »

Your podcast is priceless. Incisive, reliable information at a time when that is all too rare. Thank you. Chris, I’m begging you, get a pop filter for your mic.

I am a NP and have listened faithfully to this podcast. This is also the podcast I refer my patients to listen to when they want to deep dive on COVID information. Thank you!

I listen to this every week or so. It is my single most reliable and up to date source of information on COVID variants, public health issues, vaccines, and more. Thank you.
tragus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/04/23
I’ve listened to this podcast from the early days of the pandemic. Thank you Dr Osterholm and team for giving us the science and the facts and telling it like it is. Our own government in the UK has failed dismally on all counts. Keep up the good work - it’s much appreciated.

I have been listening faithfully to this podcast since 2021.

I am viewed as a sort of crazy Cassandra, still wearing my mask, not gathering, etc. I live in New York City and I really feel it’s going to be a difficult winter.

Best podcast hands down. No one can hold a candle to Dr. Osterholm. He brings not only his expertise and exceptional fund of knowledge to listeners but he strives for honesty and openness . His honesty is what separates him out from the crowd. You know he’s always going to tell the truth no...Read full review »

the best covid podcast.
TeriLeV via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/30/22
Obviously Covid is in a separate group as individuals must breathe and thus the Covid is widespread. Monkey Pox on the other hand is spread almost exclusively through sexual intimacy. Breathing is important, whilst sex is not, is it to much to expect individuals to slow down on their sexual...Read full review »

My partner and I are extremely thankful to Dr Osterholm and his team for this podcast. Along with the critical thinking, we appreciate the the dedications (the shelter animal dedication made us cry).

R0ccoP via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/08/22
It is great to listen to this podcast from the beginning. So much analysis now proven 100% wrong. While claiming to be humble it is a reminder that he is just a man, albeit a doctor, who is misunderstanding current data and guessing on the future. Take the time to pause and look up what...Read full review »

I’m so great full for this thoughtful, carefully reasoned and researched podcast. I learn so much from every episode. Dr O is a real humanitarian and at times I’m left in tears.
T1v4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/23/22
Have enjoyed these podcasts while trying to stay on top of pandemic info the last year or so.

The most informative source I have found after 2 years obsessing about Covid. The podcast is the resource I trust the most, not afraid to say when we just do not yet have the research completed on a particular topic or aspect (also delivered with compassion and humility).

Honest, unbiased and scientific info to help us through this difficult and distressing time! Many thanks to Dr Osterholm and the whole podcast team for being there for us all every week!

You’re a national treasure Dr. Osterholm. The ending to your 100th episode was the best ever. You’re obviously very loved.
