Hey! We're Salem (Raluca in the early episodes) and Mia, and we're a medical scientist and a historian who put their brains together to create this medical history podcast! We make content about anything we find interesting that is at the intersection between medicine/ medical science and history, with a queer and/ or social justice flair.

Lastly, we talk about the history of the anti-vaxx movement and how it looks in the present day. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/5955624">LeechFest Early Access Feed</a><br><p> See <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://acast.com/privacy">acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
