Extraordinary Stories is a spin off of the podcast series in Polish. It is a tribute to the old radio days, when interviews took longer than several minutes. If you miss old style conversation in which guests are indeed important and we are under no pressure to elicit sensational headlines – you are in the right place. And thank you for staying with us.

My first guest for the series is Professor Paul Offit
An inventor.
A scientist who published over 150 medical papers.
An acclaimed author of medical bestsellers.
But first and foremost – a pediatrician. As he underlines himself – attending physician in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

In the podcast we discuss:

safety of pediatric vaccines including COVID shots.
clinical trials results
definition of prudent risk in science
vaccine hesitancy and erosion of trust towards physicians
hate and threats against doctors educating about vaccines
health literacy
and of course the latest book published this fall:
You Bet Your Life: From Blood Transfusions to Mass Vaccination, the Long and Risky History of Medical Innovation

Enjoy the show and do not hesitate to comment. Thank you!
