MARCO Grand Rounds for March 24, 2013

From Warren, KD4GUA:
 
This Sunday we will briefly mention DMSO and then shift to the 200th anniversary of John Snow's birth--he is the one who diagnosed Cholera in London and traced it to a watering pump in the Soho in 1850.  It wasn't until 1883 that Koch and Louis Pasteur introduced the germ theory--just think of getting sick in the early 19th Century--with no antibiotics!  Cholera was a big killer and they thought it was caused by bad smelly air!  (which it was in a way!).  Tune in and bring your "NUMB NOSE".,,,,,and remember, "Growing old is mandatory, growing wise is optional."
