HELIOX: WHERE EVIDENCE MEETS EMPATHY 🇨🇦 🧬 Hunting Disease X Beneath Our Streets Jul 4, 2026 • 1:06:44 56% of the genetic material in raw city wastewater is biologically unknown. Scientists just catalogued 17,000 previously undiscovered viruses from it — and they may hold the cure for antibiotic-resistant superbugs. This episode explores the CASPER Consortium's Wastewater Virome Database, the ethics of biological surveillance, and the stunning possibility that the next great medicine is already flowing beneath our feet.
