About this listen

 July 5 2025-A New Sepsis-Testing Tool & Nate Leipciger Appointed to Order of Canada The World Health Organization has declared Sepsis a global health crisis and a trio of Canadian researchers has developed a new blood test that can detect the infection in hours instead of days. Dr. Claudia do Santos, a physician and scientist at Toronto’s St Mike’s hospital, says her research was spurred on by the case of a 22-year old man with pneumonia. She spoke with guest host Kathy Hyde. And Nate Leipcigar has led an extraordinary life: a survivor of Auschwitz, he emigrated to Canada after the war, became an engineer and has spent decades educating young people about the Holocaust and the dangers of bigotry and intolerance. Libby spoke with him earlier this year, during the 80th anniversary of the LIberation of Auschwitz.
