Hi Everyone!

Hope you're having an excellent Valentine's Day! In honor of all the romance out there, we're releasing an episode about chlamydia, one of the most successful bacterial sexually transmitted diseases in the world! The bacteria involved is a pretty funky one and is responsible for a few different diseases, so strap in and learn some new information about this old friend of humanity's.
