After years of using a ZERO COVID strategy in China, which led to many lockdowns and economic questions, the country has dropped all COVID restrictions in recent weeks. Dr. Amesh Adalja of the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security joins Stephanie Desmon to discuss what has happened in China, what the consequences are now and what they will be in the future. Adalja says both policies were destined to fail and we could see China in 2023 look a lot like the United States in 2020.
By most objective measures, the Covid pandemic is over. Because of impressively rapid technological innovations, most people are now able to easily manage risks to their health posed by the virus. But not everyone agrees that this means the pandemic is over. Some argue that as long as even a handful of high-risk individuals are threatened by Covid, we should not think it proper to resume normal life. What ideas are responsible for this approach to the ethics of infectious disease? What attitude does it betray toward healthy people and toward the innovations that allow us to preserve and perfect it? What has been the impact of this approach? By contrast, what is a rational approach to the ethics of infectious disease? Join Ben Bayer as he interviews Dr. Amesh Adalja to discuss these and other issues addressed by a recent article by Adalja in Areo Magazine.

What's the difference between COVID reinfection, rebounding, and a new infection? Are people contagious and can they have recurring symptoms with a COVID rebound? Can antivirals like paxlovid cause COVID rebounds? Can paxlovid prevent long COVID? Amesh Adalja returns to the podcast to talk with Josh Sharfstein and answer your questions sent to publichealthquestion@jhu.edu.
In this talk, Dr. Adalja will discuss the science behind vaccine platform technologies such as the mRNA vaccines. He will also describe how changes in the scientific context impact the role of vaccines, the misconception of science as omniscient, and how the arbitrary must play no role in scientific-medical matters. Recorded live on July 6, 2022 as part of the Objectivist Summer Conference
Dr. Amesh Adalja of Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security discusses the latest on Covid testing.
How did omicron numbers affect hospitalization rates? Why are positivity rates so high in some areas, and should we even pay attention to those? How accurate are rapid tests, and how forgiving are they of user error? Are our immune systems more “naive” after two years of physical distancing and masks? Dr. Amesh Adalja from the Center for Health Security returns to the podcast to talk with Lindsay Smith Rogers and answer your questions sent to publichealthquestion@jhu.edu.
Dr. Scott Knoer, PharmD is the CEO of the American Pharmacists Association. Scott has been very vocal about the FDA eliminating barriers to Pharmacists prescribing COVID antivirals and how the American Medical Association (AMA) seeming to be more concerned with their 'turf' and political position compared to the benefit to public health within America. Amesh Adalja, MD wrote in MedPage Today, an article titled: "A Successful 'Test-to-Treat' Program Requires All Hands on Deck" Within the article, Dr. Adalja wrote. In encouraging news, President Biden just announced a new plan to increase faster access: test-to-treat. The plan will enable pharmacies to become one-stop shops for COVID-19 diagnosis and oral antiviral treatment. Having treatment available at the point-of-diagnosis has the potential to significantly improve prescribing rates, which will have the downstream impact of reducing hospitalizations. More sick patients will quickly be able to access treatment. "We can't have a guild-like mentality that seeks to use government force to exclude qualified persons from engaging in a field for which the AMA wants physicians to be the exclusive purveyors. This has been evident in organized medicine's general opposition to expanded practice scopes for nurse practitioners, physician assistants, psychologists, and -- as is clear -- pharmacists. It's bad enough to advocate for this on a day-to-day basis. To do so during a public health emergency, where all hands are needed on deck, is destructive." -- Amesh Adalja, MD Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The recent Joe Rogan/Spotify backlash over the misinformation presented in his recent episode on the Covid-19 vaccines raises some difficult and important bioethical questions for society: How can people know which experts to trust? What should big tech gatekeepers do about false claims promoted on their platforms? How should the scientific establishment respond to heterodox viewpoints from experts who disagree with the consensus? When is silencing of dissent merited, and when is it problematic? Journalist Kira Peikoff asks infectious disease physician and pandemic scholar Dr. Amesh Adalja to weigh in.
A conversation with infectious disease specialist Amesh Adalja MD wherein we discuss the "new" Omicron variant, and where Dr. Adalja weighs on the controversy surrounding Spotify, podcaster Joe Rogan and the efforts to silence his presentation of arguably dangerous countervailing vaccine science.

Welcome from Joel Gelfand, MD, MSCE :10 About Calabrese and Adalja :11 At day five, what's your recommendation for clinicians how to counsel people about testing to get out of isolation? Do you recommend people go ahead and get tested to end isolation or to just end isolation if not having much symptoms or improving? :51 How should we counsel our immunocompromised patients? Should they really isolate for 20 days? 5:21 Can people continue to test positive and antigen test beyond the infectious period? 10:13 In the clinical setting, you know, should physicians be wearing N95 masks, and if so, what's that databased on? 15:22 If a person has a positive antigen test but a negative PCR on the same day, how do you interpret that information for a patient? 22:12 Now we finally have emergence of effective therapies for people with COVID-19. How do you think about these different therapies? Do you have an algorithm that you'd recommend to clinicians in the field about which one to reach for first? 24:05 When someone has a COVID infection how soon thereafter can you give them a COVID immunization? 27:47 With Omicron working its way through the US and obviously through the world, where do you see the next three to six months going? 28:34 Thank you everyone 31:29 Amesh Adalja, MD, FIDSA,is senior scholar at Johns Hopkins and a practicing infectious disease and critical care physician in Pittsburgh.

Senior Scholar at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Health Security, Dr. Amesh Adalja, joins Dr. Marc Siegel and discusses COVID vaccines, boosters, the complexity of measuring COVID-19 immunity, and why he believes there is a need to make messaging for COVID-19 goals more clear.
If a vaccinated person is exposed to COVID but doesn't get sick, does that affect that person's immunity? Is weekly testing for unvaccinated coworkers really sufficient to protect everyone? Are any new variants keeping you up at night? Should people switch vaccines for their booster doses? Amesh Adalja of the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security and Josh Sharfstein address COVID-19 questions submitted to publichealthquestion@jhu.edu.
In late October, experts in the US stopped talking about taking extreme precautions against Covid-19 and started talking about learning to live with the virus. Does this represent a change of heart or a change in the science? It's been hard for experts to detangle their scientific opinions from their feelings and values. In this episode I'll talk with Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health. He's long advocated an approach called harm reduction, which was used in the AIDS crisis to help guide people toward having safer sex rather than asking them to give it up forever. He says many experts initially pushed a Covid-19 strategy akin to abstinence only, but it's becoming more obvious by the day that this is unsustainable, and the virus isn't going away. “Follow the Science" is produced, written, and hosted by Faye Flam, with funding by the Society for Professional Journalists.

Boris Johnson has announced a wholesale "bonfire" of Covid-19 rules with a new plan to get England to live with the virus.The British Prime Minister has announced almost all restrictions, including gathering limits, mask mandates, social distancing rules and work from home guidelines, will no longer apply from July 19.That's despite rising cases of the more infectious Delta strain, across the UK and parts of Europe.New Zealand, meanwhile, is continuing to stick to the elimination strategy. Covid-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins told RNZ that the country needs to "work hard over the next little while, the next probably couple of years" to keep Covid-19 out. Amesh Adalja, infectious diseases expert from Johns Hopkins University, told Heather du Plessis-Allan this is the wrong strategy."It is not something that can be eliminated or eradicated. This is something we want to tame with vaccine in high-risk populations, and possibly make similar to other respiratory viruses that we deal with."He says that island nations may think they can keep it out, but "it is not going anywhere", and sustainable approach that allows life to continue is more realistic, and our population will need to be educated about that. "I think the New Zealand, Australia approach isn't reflective of that." LISTEN ABOVE

There has been a huge demand in Silicon Valley for very expensive “raw water”. Raw water is supposedly unfiltered, untreated, unsterilized spring water according to a NY Times report. The rationale is that the existing water supply and tap water has many chemicals and pollutants and naturally occurring minerals that are filtered out when water is treated. What about this trendy fad and what are the health risks? Amesh Adalja, MD joined me to talk about raw water. Dr Adalja is a Senior Associate with the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security.
Since the Haiti cholera outbreak began in October 2010, months after the Jan. 12, 2010 earthquake, more than 800,000 cases have been reported, including about 9500 deaths.

Amesh Adalja, MD joined me to discuss cholera. Dr. Adalja is a Senior Associate with the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says “Hepatitis” means inflammation of the liver. The liver is a vital organ that processes nutrients, filters the blood, and fights infections. When the liver is inflamed or damaged, its function can be affected. Heavy alcohol use, toxins, some medications, and certain medical conditions can cause hepatitis. However, hepatitis is most often caused by a virus. In the United States, the most common types of viral hepatitis are Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C. Hepatitis A has been in the news with some frequency as significant outbreaks have been reported in the Detroit and San Diego areas and Europe is experiencing a big outbreak. Senior Associate with the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, Amesh Adalja, MD joined me to answer some questions about hepatitis A.
