The guy who finds COVID in poop
Two Nice Jewish Boys is a weekly Israeli podcast in English. Naor Meningher and Eytan Weinstein offer you a glimpse of Israel and some of the interesting people here. Since February 2017 Two Nice Jewish Boys is featured on the website of the Jewish Journal, America’s top Jewish news outlet. Naor Meninger is an independent filmmaker. He’s obsessed with Italy and runs the Israeli parmesan black-market. Eytan Weinstein is an interactive scriptwriter. He grew up in Birmingham, Alabama and pronounces the word “drawer” funny.
Since Delta is on the rise, we thought it would be a great idea to revisit our old friend, Covid. But this time, from a different angle.
The poop angle.
Dr Yair Lewis is part of the Health Ministry’s national lab for environmental virology led by Dr Itay Bar-Or, which is testing sewage across Israel to help pinpoint high risk coronavirus infection areas.
Dr Lewis is also the VP Medical at Navina, a medical AI startup that makes patient data accessible for care providers. He earned his MD from the Hebrew University, and is board certified in Internal Medicine. Yair also holds a PhD in molecular biology from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology.
We are super excited to be joined by Dr Yair Lewis today to talk about Covid … and poop.
