The CDC provides a wide variety of health-related podcasts for the public – and in some cases, for clinicians – on their website. Some are just audio files (MP3) while others are offered as videos as well.
Most are short, running less than 10 minutes.
Recent topics include Recognizing Whooping Cough, Bloodstream Infections with Mycobacterium Tuberculosis among HIV patients, and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Increased Risk for Malaria Infection.
An eclectic selection, but just a small sample of hundreds available. To view the latest offerings use THIS LINK.
With the flu season just ahead, one of the offerings this week is a 4-minute briefing for clinicians on this years’ ACIP flu vaccination recommendations.
While produced for Health Care Providers, these clinician’s podcasts are also available to the general public.
