Ken McCarthy returns to the podcast to discuss his latest book, The Hep B Chronicles: The Story of a Virus, a Vaccine, and Industrial-Sized Vats of Genetically Modified Baker's Yeast. In the book, he explores the history of hepatitis B, the development of the vaccine, and the broader questions he raises about public health policy, pharmaceutical influence, vaccine regulation, and informed consent…

The history of hepatitis B and how public health strategies evolved throughout the 20th century.
-
Ken's perspective on booster recommendations and vaccination policy.
