Imagine surviving a snake bite only to battle depression for years. Half of hospitals can't properly treat snake bites and almost all healthcare workers struggle to administer life-saving anti-venom in many ways.

From recent strides in quality control to universal antivenom approaches and simple prevention measures, this conversation reveals the challenges of snakebite envenoming and the promising solutions that could finally end it.
