Freakonomics radio – Bad medicine Part 1 t/m 3

I highly recommend you listen to all episodes of this mini serie about medicine! The first episode is about our standard for perfect body temperature, namely: 98.6°F or 37°C. This number is based on research done a loooong time ago. The question is: is this number still right?
Episode 2 is about drugs. Especially about drugs that turned out not to be so helpful, harmful even. The last episode, episode 3, is about death by medical error.

On this site you can find podcasts I listened to and find worthy of sharing with you. You will find that I mostly listen to This American Life, Stuff You Should Know, Strangers, Freakonomics and Radiolab. I will add more podcasts as I listen to them, so this register will be updated (and thereby grow) regularly.
