G’day and welcome back to another episode of the Yarns from the Paddock by AgForce Queensland. 

On today’s episode we sit down with Dr. Robert Horvath, an infectious disease physician and microbiologist based at the Prince Charles Hospital in Brisbane. Dr. Horvath sheds light on the pressing issue of Q Fever, a potentially dangerous infectious disease, and shares valuable insights on the current state of research and vaccination efforts.
 
 In our conversation, we delve into the world of Q Fever with Dr. Horvath, exploring questions such as what Q Fever is and how individuals can contract it. We also discuss the recent surge in Q Fever cases, offering a glimpse into Dr. Horvath's experiences and thoughts on the matter.
 
 Furthermore, Dr. Horvath provides a glimpse into the existing Q Fever vaccine and the promising new vaccine currently under research. As we uncover the potential impact of a new vaccine on families in rural areas, we ponder on the positive changes it could bring to those living in the bush.
 
 With a focus on progress and advancement, Dr. Horvath shares his insights on the future of Q Fever research and the crucial support needed to drive it forward. From discussing the financial requirements to outlining the goals and achievements expected with increased funding, we explore the path ahead for Q Fever research and advocacy.
