“The 16 August 2024 episode really helped us with a new case, in the family home, of
COVID-19. The recent Long Covid episode
was enlightening for a work situation.
Just pressed pause and made another
donation. TWIV is lifesaving.”

“These guys are so condescending. They also cling to group think. There is a strong current of refusal to consider possible ideas and theories other than their own.”

It describes 8 competencies that Operational Excellence and other Transformational leaders should aspire to get better at. Many of these I found myself agreeing with during the episode...”Read full review »

“I really listen to hear Vincent’s puns and asides, such as when he learned that horses are closest to bats biologically he exclaimed “ you mean Pegasus was real?“. How can one not listen after that! And the science is OK too.”

“I have been listening to TWiV since 2015. It helped me understand some of the basic and advanced concept in Virology on top of keeping me up to date with some of the new literature in the field. Thank you Racaniello et al!”

“If you can navigate the fear porn, it’s a great podcast. I can’t believe the number of times they’ve said “over 800 kids have died”… there have, at the time of writing, less than 20 kids (aged 0-19) who have died with no comorbidity. Quit stressing people out and just report the facts.”

“I notice when Dr Daniel was advising a listener about giving her incredibly low risk son a booster (!) he invoked the advice of Paul Offit without mentioning that Offit advised his own son not to get boosted due to the myocarditis risk.
