It's contagious! A discussion with Dr. Paul Pottinger about specializing in infectious disease, learning antibiotics and antimicrobial stewardship and mountaineering

We sit down with Dr. Paul Pottinger, infectious disease and tropical medicine specialist at the University of Washington for an engaging discussion about working in the field of infectious disease. We also get Dr. Pottinger's advice on learning and clinical resources for using antibiotics, and what antimicrobial stewardship, the future of antimicrobial resistance and how we--as future medical professionals--can be good stewards! We also get to hear about Dr. Pottinger's mountain climbing 'hobby', which includes summiting the tallest mountain on every continent! 

We also have a brief announcement from UWSOM's Infectious Disease Interest Group (IDIG) about their upcoming Vaccine Hesitancy Panel on April 25th, 2019
