I’ve done a few radio and TV shows in the past, and of the two, I prefer radio. Mostly because the last time I did a TV show, a friend commented that it looked like I’d put on more weight.
I explained the camera always adds 15 pounds, to which he replied, `Just how many cameras did they have on you?’
Moving on . . . last night I had the pleasure of pre-recording a segment with Microbiologist Robert Herriman, host of the Outbreak News This Week radio show. Although broadcast live Saturday mornings on several radio stations in the Tampa Bay Area, his show is also streamed live online, and archived as a podcast for later download here.
In recent weeks his guests have included Professor Vincent Racaniello, Christina Nelson, MD, MPH, FAAP, Medical Epidemiologist with the CDC’s DVBID, Abbey Canon, DVM, MPH, LT, USPHS , Epidemic Intelligence Service Officer, Roger S. Nasci, PhD, Chief of the Arboviral Diseases Branch at the CDC’s DVBID, among others.
Robert and I discussed this season’s H1N1 seasonal flu and the MERS-CoV outbreak in the Middle East, after which he counts down his top 10 infectious disease stories of 2013.

I had a good time, and would like to thank Robert for inviting me. I expect we’ll do this again in a few weeks.
