admittedly, this is an older lecture that is probably out of date by now but it's really impossible to listen past the first few minutes. he does not do a very good job of introducing some of the basic concepts and their relevance to the conversation. talking about optical density on a test when you really just need to explain the prothrombotic tendency seen in adenoviral Vector recipients Muddy's the waters and did nothing to advance and understanding of how the vaccine itself might cause problems there's a lot of people out there like this, who know their material but don't do a very good job of explaining it to the uninitiated and I doubt that medical students and residents came away from this lecture with a clear headed understanding of what he was trying to communicate. even as an experienced clinician, I had a tough time following his chain of ideas
