All Sides with Ann Fisher - 3-22-2023 B - Wellness Wednesday - Safety tips for Americans traveling outside the US for medical treatment
Medical tourism and traveling abroad for health procedures have been in the news recently. This was a result of the abduction of four Americans in Mexico on a medical tourism trip.
Josef Woodman, the CEO of Patients Beyond Borders, a resource for international health travel shares what you should know before leaving U.S. borders to receive health care.
The health care landscape juggled many challenges this winter from a surge in respiratory illnesses to widespread drug shortages to treat them.
Then there was the flu, which returned to pre-pandemic highs and, of course, COVID.
And now, a fungal infection known as Candida auris is spreading across the U.S.
It's an age-old question: Why do leftovers sometimes taste better the next day?
There's a two pronged answer. The food and you.
Guests:
Josef Woodman, CEO of Patients Beyond Borders
Dr. John Swartzberg, infectious disease specialist at UC Berkeley's School of Public Health
Pamela Dalton, psychologist at the Monell Chemical Senses Center
