Zakiul Hassan and Tahmina Shirin on Nipah virus disease

Phoebe Ashley-Norman talks with Zakiul Hassan and Prof Tahmina Shirin about the findings of "Interpreting the natural history and pathogenesis of Nipah virus disease through clinical data, to inform clinical trial design: a systematic review", by Zakiul Hassan and colleagues.

We also discuss Nipah virus disease more broadly, talking about recent phylogenetic findings, diagnostics, therapeutics, vaccines, and ongoing challenges.
