Listen "Summer Safety"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Hot Mic Cold Virus, I dive into the sticky, sweaty world of infection prevention during summer fun. Whether you're hitting the lake, grilling in the backyard, or sending your kids to camp, summer brings a whole new set of germ risks.
We unpack the most common summer infections—from poolside pathogens like Naegleria fowleri to foodborne illnesses, bug bites, and everything in between. You’ll hear practical tips on water safety and wound care, vector control, and what to pack in your ultimate summer safety kit.
Let’s talk ticks, towels, and why that potato salad might be the real villain of your BBQ.
