Undiagnosed disease in DR Congo — what could it be?

ABC  

Tegan Taylor: Norman, I know you're a gym junkie, and I love that about you. Norman Swan: Yeah, so because it's just you and me and nobody else is listening to the conversation, I've always aspired to a six-pack but gave up on that a long time ago. Tegan Taylor: But first, Norman, it's time for us to discuss health news, and there was a really unsettling release from the World Health Organisation this past week or so, saying 'undiagnosed disease that we're worried about', and you and me, with our pandemic trauma still lurking, decided to take a closer look at it. Norman Swan: They've refined the vaccine, what's stimulating the immune system, to where the virus actually binds to the cell in the body. Tegan Taylor: There's been some really fabulous reporting on the ABC News website about the impact that obesity stigma or weight stigma can cause people.
