Three Stages of Stigma - Morbid Curiosity

History has given us a lingering fear surrounding the venereal disease syphilis.  This episode discusses the symptoms, long term skeletal effects, history of the disease, the many treatments associated with it over the centuries as well as unpacks the cultural views surrounding those infected.

Listener discretion is advised.

*Today, syphilis is a fully treatable disease, but it spreads fast. If you think you have symptoms syphilis, please go to your doctor as soon as possible and get tested.*
