This week brings us to the Lancaster Medical Heritage Museum in Lancaster, Pennsylvania to talk with their director, Kim Jovinelli.  She does just about everything at the museum and you might recognize her if you've spent any time looking at medical history stuff on TikTok where she and her staff give glimpses of life at the museum and share fun medical history facts.

In addition to learning a bit about the museum, we'll talk about iron lungs and polio.  We'll talk about Lancaster's famous vaccine farm.  We'll talk about reasons a modern physician may still practice good old fashioned bloodletting.  We'll also talk about why some people eat other people after they're buried in honey for 100 years.  Seriously, there's a lot to chat about. 

 Happy Thanksgiving from the Poor Historians Podcast!
