Today we’re talking about what’s happening with one of the most contagious viruses on Earth. And later: a different virus that’s near the top of the list for what could cause the next pandemic.
I’m joined by “Your Local Epidemiologist” Dr. Katelyn Jetelina. She is a senior scientific advisor to several gov’t and non-profit agencies including the CDC, and she’s received multiple awards for her work including a Medal of Honor from the Department of Health and Human Services.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
