On Sunday’s airing of the Outbreak News This Week Radio Show, we looked at the new fluoroquinolone antibiotic, Baxdela, which garnered FDA approval recently.
Assistant Professor of Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, James McKinnell, M.D. joined me to discuss the importance of this approval.
During the second half, I began the first in a series on travel health with a thorough look at how to prepare for travel to the Philippines.
