by Eliot Rifkin

Some of us have experienced friends or family who all of a sudden contracted sepsis or have even experienced it ourselves.  Sepsis seems to onset quickly and can be deadly.  How do you know it’s coming on? When do you go to your GP versus call an ambulance? Is sepsis reversible?

Here's Mark Coulthard's bio along with his research partner Trent Woodruff as well as some support for those listener's who've been affected by sepsis - Surviving Sepsis.
