#47 – Biological Barcodes: Vaccinations, Antibodies, MRSA & Blood Donation – Science But Simple 6 With Josh Murray

Listen on

Episode notes

This week marks the return of Josh, our favourite scientist, for the sixth episode of “Science But Simple”!

In this release, Josh explains to Mike how germs “work”, so this discussion delves into why MRSA is so dangerous, what antibiotics & antibodies are and why one should *always* finish a course of prescribed antobiotics, how people get sick including why antibiotics don’t work on viruses, why vaccines work (and why they don’t cause autism), why some blood types can’t mix when donating blood (regarding blood transfusions) and so much more!

For any newcomers, "Science But Simple" is a mini-series on Genuine Chit-Chat mostly about explaining the fundamentals of things we see in our everyday lives in an easy-to-digest manner.

Last week Mike spoke with CEO & biohacker Thom King about memento mori & being mindful of death, how they believe the universe works, spirituality and more, while the week before Thom & Mike spoke about Thom’s company, his entrepreneurial pursuits, meditation & mindfulness, the ketogenic diet and many other topics!
