Did you know that people with diabetes or who need dialysis are at a high risk of getting an infection called melioidosis, especially in the wet season?

In this video, our kidney specialist Dr Jaqui Hughes explains why the antibiotics you take at the end of dialysis help prevent you from getting very sick with melioidosis. This video is part 2 of a 2-part series.
