The CDC has just posted a webinar from late August on the M. chimaera outbreak, if you are interested in an overview. It may be worth your while to look at this (or read our prior posts) this week, in anticipation of some additional information that will be coming soon (more details later this week).
The video below starts with introductions to the problem by Mike Bell and Joe Perz at CDC, than at 18:00 you can hear Chuck Daley from National Jewish discuss the clinical aspects of the outbreak, at 30:00 I discuss the local outbreak response, and at 46:00 Keith Allen provides a surgeon's perspective.
