Chronic fatigue and weakness. Dizziness. Swollen limbs. Sudden, excruciating pain in the chest, back, legs, and arms. Uncontrollable, painful erections or priapism. Tissue necrosis. Organ damage. Increased susceptibility to bacterial infection. Death at a young age from stroke, heart attack, or organ failure. These are but a few of the awful symptoms of Sickle Cell Disease, also known as Sickle Cell Anaemia. Resulting from a defective gene that causes sufferers’ blood cells to collapse into a distinctive crescent shape, this inherited disorder afflicts nearly 8 million people worldwide and kills over 34,000 every year, with most sufferers hailing from - or tracing their ancestry to - tropical regions such as Sub-Saharan Africa. As a result, Sickle-Cell Anaemia is often seen as a predominantly “Black disease”, tragically affecting access to care for millions of sufferers. But while this affliction causes untold suffering worldwide, condemning millions to a lifetime of pain - and, in many cases, an early grave - there is a silver lining: an unexpected evolutionary advantage that has allowed Sickle Cell Anaemia to persist for thousands of years. Join us as we take a deep dive into one of the world’s most fascinating yet overlooked diseases.

Love you guys super entertaining

It makes me sad to see your view to sub ratio. A tip of mine would be to maybe mention in the description when you start with what topic (can’t be to much work). Also maybe through in some quicker facts maybe? Like what fans ask. Ill make sure to ask some after this review. I also hope this is the American iTunes cuz im a broke as hell student and could use the giftcard a lot haha. Keep up the good work guys.

This podcast has the perfect ratio of banter to information. I always listen to it during work and it’s usually the only thing keeping me awake. 10/10 would listen again.

Amazing podcast

These guys are getting always subjects with an impressive amount of details and fact checking. I started with Today I found that YouTube channel and I am also a constant listener of the podcast. Great job and I was one of the guys which really enjoyed the space series.
Good luck for the future
