We decided to throw out a little bit of a bonus episode. In what we're calling the Curious Case Vault for now, we'll go into the archives of a well-established medical journal and read a real case report from long ago--1841, to be exact.
In this case, with our help as physicians, Alba will puzzle through the case of a 53 year old patient who, unfortunately, developed a sore throat in the 19th century. We'll go through the case, do our best to figure out what happened, and we'll compare the care and capabilities of an 1840's physician to what we have in the modern time. We'll talk about a variety of medicine topics using this real historic case as a framework. If you're a curious sort of person that enjoys a bit of medical knowledge along with your history of medicine type podcast, we're hoping this is for you.
If you enjoyed this experimental side project, please let us know. If you'd like to see us do more of these type of episodes in addition to our normal show, drop us a line through our website, email, or on our social media pages. Listener feedback goes a long way in helping us know what our community likes to hear.
