Episode 11 - Christmas Special with Courtney and Craig

Hello and welcome to our special Christmas episode of the Meaning of Health, where we focus on a selection of more light-hearted studies that were published in the Medical Journal of Australia’s Christmas issue. We finish off with a discussion of what we felt were some of the big health issues in 2019, and what we think will be some of the big issues in 2020 (and beyond). Apologies to any baby boomers who may be offended. The articles that we discuss in this episode are: Yuki Furuse (2019). What would happen if Santa Claus was sick? His impact on communicable disease transmission R John Massie (2019). Repurposing medical equipment Dennis Zetner et al. (2019). Blondes do not have more fun: a non‐blinded crossover field study You can find these articles here: https://www.mja.com.au/journal/2019/211/11 Thank you for listening this year, and we wish you an excellent break over the holiday period.
