ESWI Airborne's Podcast

In this educational podcast series, our host Clare Taylor talks with the members and partners of ESWI, the European Scientific Working Group on Influenza about their work with acute respiratory viruses such as influenza, sars-CoV-2 and RSV. Clare unearths career choices and paths discovering what brought these distinguished members to become experts in their respective fields. As listeners, we get acquainted with the fascinating world of viruses while she asks thought-provoking questions on issues ranging from how to keep viruses at bay, how vaccines work, why vaccination is important to certain risk groups, how to tackle fake news, and much, much more. This podcast series is adapted to the level of interest of healthcare professionals, patients belonging to risk groups, policy-makers and the public at large. Its purpose is to convey the thoughts and points of view of our guest speakers. Its purpose is not to provide specific medical advice to individuals or substitute consultation with medical practitioners.

Clare Taylor

My work centres on communicating ideas and policies for a better world; favourite topics include sustainable energy, environment and concepts like One Health. I especially love talking with people who are experts in their field.

Mostly I am a word-worker, typical projects include media advocacy, supporting national authorities' implementation of EU energy directives, writing and research for TV and podcast series, documentaries and journalism. As a former magazine publisher, I enjoy skilful communications, wicked problems and well-plotted thrillers.
