Hi, I'm Joe Alton MD, medical preparedness writer and founder of Doomandbloom.net, where you'll find over 1000 articles, podcasts, and videos for any disaster. Along with my nurse-practitioner wife Amy, we're the authors of NY Times and Amazon Bestselling books like the Survival Medicine Handbook, now in its 700 page third edition, Alton's Antibiotics and Infectious Disease, and several others. We also design medical kits for hunters, hikers, campers, and for long-term survival settings at store.doomandbloom.net. You might know me as "Dr. Bones" of the Survival Podcast's expert council and from my many articles in American Survival Guide, Survivor's Edge, Backwoods Home, and other fine magazines.
