Louis Pasteur special edition: Rabies
Episode description
Louis Pasteur was involved in the creation of the first rabies vaccine in the 1880s, but today one person every ten minutes still dies from rabies, with all of the deaths concentrated in low and middle-income countries. Prof. Katie Hampson joins Gavin and Jessamy to talk about the history of the vaccine and why it's proven so difficult to eliminate rabies.
