Season 2 - Episode 8 - Maya Nadimpalli

03 Apr 2025

Description

What do pigs and chickens have to do with antibiotic resistance? In this episode of the Virulent Vortex, Maya Nadimpalli explains how the overuse of antibiotics in the livestock and poultry industry selects for drug-resistant bacteria that can end up causing untreatable infections in humans in low-income settings. Reducing the unnecessary use of antibiotics is key, but as Nadimpalli explains, improving water and sanitation infrastructure can also go a long way.Hosted by Ausha.
