Description:[Dr. Rasmussen] Welcome to Defining Moments in MMWR History. I’m your host, Dr. Sonja
Rasmussen, Editor-in-Chief of the MMWR.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, an outbreak of a disease called Toxic Shock Syndrome made healthy women sick. CDC’s disease detectives helped unravel the link between Toxic Shock Syndrome and high-absorbency tampons.
Today, I'm talking with Dr. Kathy Shands, former chief of the Toxic Shock Syndrome Task Force and one of CDC’s original disease detectives who worked on this outbreak. Dr. Shands received a U.S. public health service commendation medal for her work on Toxic Shock Syndrome. Thank you for coming, Kathy.
