Did COVID escape from a lab? Can viruses do that? How often might that happen? Are there rules to prevent viruses from escaping? Are there teeny tiny virus security officers?
Dr. Jen the vet and Dr. Jason are joined by an expert in bio containment, Dr. Lisa Kercher, to learn all about virus research, bio attacks, and what type of regulations exist in the US to prevent catastrophes...and viral mishaps! Dr. Kercher has more than 20 years of experience working in viral research and founded Kercher Consulting to provide sophisticated guidance in bio containment techniques and regulatory compliance to professional research programs.
Not only does Dr. Jason expand his vocabulary in this episode, we also get the first installment of "V's View from Vet School!" Want to know V's top three tips for preparing to start vet school? Check out her view!
