Welcome to the vaccine episode! There are vaccines for both bacterial and viral infections. In this episode we want to tell you about the first vaccine, which was for smallpox (a pretty terrible virus), and how its discovery involved milkmaids and old scabs. Learn how vaccines work, how they’re made, and why Edward Jenner was a pretty weird dude.

ARMOR on the Air is a student-led podcast based out of the University of Colorado Boulder. We discuss the antimicrobial resistance crisis and what we as members of the public can do to help! Join our hosts, graduate student Dana and Danish pharmacist Karoline, as we learn more about superbugs and how to stop them!

ARMOR is an outreach organization at CU Boulder. We promote safe and responsible use of antibiotics, support research into new antibiotics, and encourage the public to take steps in their daily lives to limit development of more superbugs!

Thank you to Prod. Riddiman for our intro/outro music! Serenity - Lofi Hip Hop Beat
