Podcasts about as omicron

The new subvariant of Omicron of COVID-19 that caused a spike – variant XBB.1.5 has caused some concern. As Omicron has been by far the most contagious variant of COVID-19. To what extent we should be worried about it? - Subvarian baru Omicron dari COVID-19, varian XBB.1.5 telah menyebabkan lonjakan – yang menimbulkan kekhawatiran. Sejauh ini Omicron merupakan varian COVID-19 yang paling menular. Oleh sebab itu, sejauh mana kita harus mengkhawatirkan varian baru Omicron itu?

As Omicron case numbers and reinfections rise, could the country benefit from making a second booster shot more widely available? The answer from one immunologist is a firm, 'no'. At the moment people over the age of 50, the immune-compromised and healthcare, aged care and disability workers are all eligible for a second booster shot, if it's been six months since their first. Professor Nikki Turner, Director of the Immunisation Advisory Centre, explains why second booster shots aren't being given to younger people just yet.

As Omicron rages in New Zealand, attention is turning to a possible fourth Covid-19 vaccine dose. The Director-General of Health, Ashley Bloomfield, has asked for advice on how helpful an additional booster could be, particularly for older people and those with pre-existing conditions. University of Auckland vaccinologist Helen Petousis-Harris spoke to Susie Ferguson.

As Omicron continues to spread through the country, hospitality businesses feel like they're about to fall as they try jump Covid's latest hurdle. At RED, venues using vaccine passes are limited to 100 people. But, Hospitality New Zealand said most places weren't getting anywhere near that number, and they were struggling. Its chief executive Julie White spoke to Guyon Espiner

As Omicron spreads, and more of our test results are self-reported do the daily COVID numbers still mean anything? Professor Nigel French talks to Jesse about the relevance and accuracy of the figures.

As Omicron bites and more people are being forced to isolate for extended periods of time, the staff shortages in this country across just about every sector have become critical. The aged care sector is an example - a broad coalition of residents, workers and facility operators has written to the Health Minister warning him that staffing shortages in the sector could become catastrophic if more workers go into isolation. And it's not just the aged care sector that's suffering.  In the New Zealand Herald, Jane Phare, a business reporter, has done another story on the staffing shortages in this country. And across every sector. We're all going to have a problem with the worker shortage with or without Omicron isolation.  You might say it doesn't affect you, but it will soon with increased inflation, delays in infrastructure and building, poor service closures and everyday price rises. Fruit is going to stay unpicked. If there are no pickers, it will stay on the trees until it falls to the ground and rots and you will pay more for it.  You won't be able to get to the supermarket after work or when you usually did, because they are reducing the hours that they're open because they don't have the staff. You're not going to be able to get the car fixed because your workshops are closed and so on and so forth.

Former Attorney General Bill Barr says that Jeffrey Epstein really did kill himself. It doesn't have a name, but it's everywhere. As Omicron fades, a new variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19 has been detected in every U.S. state. Dr. Seuss's estate has announced the release of new books featuring previously unpublished sketches by the author. An Estonian cargo ship has sunk after possibly hitting an undersea mine off the coast of Ukraine near the port city of Odessa. A family is suing the state of Illinois, a child welfare investigator contracted by the state, and others, alleging their three children were taken away for more than a year over the investigator's hurt feelings. The White House and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra have issued statements condemning Governor Greg Abbott's direction to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to investigate the parents of children who have undergone “so-called ‘sex change' procedures.” While a Texas district judge blocked an investigation by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services of parents of a 16-year-old who claims to be transgender due to a lawsuit filed by the ACLU on the family's behalf.  My Patriot Supply: https://mypatriotsupply.com/?rfsn=4146636.103ca0  Built Bar: https://shareasale.com/u.cfm?d=700110&m=81988&u=2425692&afftrack=  Pre-Order The Woking Dead: How Society's Vogue Virus Destroys Our Culture: https://www.amazon.com/Woking-Dead-Societys-Destroys-Culture/dp/1637583680/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2IMZL8JRKL6B9&keywords=aj+rice%2C+post+hill&qid=1645080317&s=books&sprefix=AJ+Rice%2Cstripbooks%2C152&sr=1-1

The Federation Internationale Feline bars Russians from competing in cat contests as IKEA shuts its stores in Russia. But will this pussy whip be enough to persuade Vladimir Putin to turn back his tanks? Former Major General and serving Australian Senator Jim Molan joins the Swill with his verdict. As Omicron rips through Western Australia like a 2am kebab, Caroline di Russo embraces the spirit of glasnost by driving a battered Trabant across the Nullarbor Plain to join Nick Cater and Tim Blair on the other side of the iron-ore curtain.

On today's Monday Wire Charlie spoke with Yurko Galdun, Chairman of the Ukrainian Association of New Zealand Northern Regions, about the peaceful protest against Russia's military action that happened in Auckland. As Omicron raises staff shortage concerns in the health sector, Bindi Norwell, CEO of ProCare, discussed their ‘Mission Possible' initiative with Charlie. Green MP Chloë Swarbrick also spoke with Charlie about an open-letter to improve cultural infrastructure. Sam spoke with Marcelle Dawson, sociology professor at Otago University about the anti-mandate protests happening in Welington. As many students went back to university today, once again online, Sam spoke with two post graduate students about wanting a partial refund on fees.

Shorter isolation periods and Rat tests for teachers could prevent a total return to online learning, according to an Auckland principal struggling to staff classes. As Omicron cases grow in the community, schools are increasingly having to manage with teachers away - either isolating or with Covid. As a result Western Springs College in Auckland has introduced a rolling roster, with year levels taking turns to learn from home one day per week. Principal Ivan Davis has got a lot of teachers benched due to Covid.

As Omicron infections escalate, so is concern from Pasifika outreach organisations about whether Government and public health initiatives endorsing home isolation, and community care are going to keep Covid positive people, who live in large households, safe. Some hospitals services are strained, and then there's the sobering figure from Auckland's Middlemore hospital, that one in 10 patients presenting to the Emergency Department are testing positive for Covid. The hospital serves the South Auckland community which has many multi-generational family households. Kathryn talks to Counties Manukau DHB Chief Medical Officer Dr Andrew Connolly, Pacific healthcare provider South Seas Healthcare Trust CEO Lemalu Silao Vaisola Sefo and to Dr Debbie Sorensen, who is the chief executive of the Pasifika Medical Association and she is also at the helm of Pasifika Futures, which is a Whanau Ora commissioning agency.

As Omicron continues to spread in aged care homes, mounting deaths and severe staff shortages have placed pressure on the federal Government to act urgently – but are they doing too little, too late? Guardian Australia medical editor Melissa Davey speaks to Laura Murphy-Oates on the stark realities being faced by frontline workers battling Covid-19.

As Omicron cases dip government mandates continue to rise. This has led to a surge in opposition to pandemic restrictions continuing into their third year led by the Canadian Truckers Convoy. On tonight's Tim's News Explosion I look at the push for a return to tradition and normality. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As Omicron surged across the country, Democratic and Republican governors alike doubled down on indoor mask mandates and declared states of emergency. But when asked whether he would make masks mandatory, Gov. Jared Polis of Colorado declared, “The emergency is over.” Unlike Ron DeSantis of Florida, Greg Abbott of Texas and other governors who have refused mandates, Polis is a lifelong Democrat. His take: Omicron is “a very different situation than early 2020” and there's a “silent majority” who are already vaccinated and want to choose how they manage their risk. Or, as he put it in an interview, “At this point, if you haven't been vaccinated, it's really your own darn fault.”In this conversation, Kara Swisher presses Polis to explain his relatively laissez-faire approach to pandemic response. They also discuss the political landscape of his purple state, why Polis got love on Tucker Carlson's show and whether his centrist approach makes him similar to Joe Manchin.You can find transcripts (posted midday) and more information for all episodes at nytimes.com/sway, and you can find Kara on Twitter @karaswisher.

As Omicron cases increase, health authorities have warned people need to be ready to isolate at home, and manage symptoms if you come down with Covid. So what needs to go into a Covid care kit? Our reporter Louise Ternouth and camera operator Marika Khabazi went to find out.

This past Thursday marked the one-year anniversary of the Biden-Harris Administration in office and one topic that stole the spotlight was the future of the filibuster. FOX News Congressional Correspondent, Chad Pergram joins Jared to explain the role of the filibuster in Congress and why there appears to be a clear divide on its efficacy. Chad shares the potential influence filibuster discussions will have on midterm election campaigns and the possibility of the Build Back Better bill being re-presented to the Senate in “chunks.” Just days into the Biden Administration's COVID-19 at-home test kit rollout, Senior Director of Special Pathogens for  NYC Health + Hospitals, Dr. Syra Madad joins Jared to discuss what this means for handling potential COVID-19 variant surges. As Omicron-related hospitalizations fluctuate across the country, Americans are beginning to get confused and overwhelmed by the messaging surrounding the virus. Dr. Madad addresses how necessary, pandemic-related information, is getting lost in communication because it's not being presented in a digestible way. However, Dr. Madad acknowledges that the at-home test kit rollout is a game-changer for equipping Americans with the necessary measures to combat future variants. Learn more about your ad choices.

As Omicron leads to nation-wide COVID-19 surges, many jurisdictions face the decision to activate crisis standards of care, a decision-making guide that helps healthcare providers give the best care during situations where resources are scarce. These guidelines focus on care for groups of people rather than individuals and are steered by ethical principles to avoid discrimination. Crisis standards of care can be especially impactful for people living with disabilities who may require access to certain resources, such as ventilators, as part of their routine medical care. In this episode, Katey Redmond (former Disability and Preparedness Specialist, Alaska Department of Health and Social Services) and Dr. Alexis Travis (State Health Officer, Michigan Department of Health & Human Services) speak about disability inclusion in crisis standards of care and share advice on how to build partnerships with the disability community.

As Omicron spreads across the US, Claudia Hammond is joined by Professor Matt Fox from Boston University to discuss the latest Covid-19 news, including President Biden's pledge to make high-quality masks available across the country. Wheezing and feeling breathless is a fact of life for the 262 million people around the world who have asthma. Some worry that exercise will worsen their asthma symptoms. But UK researchers say that evidence shows that all people with asthma can exercise safely – even if that's just walking across a room. Lung specialist Andrew Wilson says that the risks are low as long as the symptoms are controlled with medication. Health psychologist Leanne Tyson recommends setting small goals and regular rewards to help keep up the habit. Asthma patient Bill Day, who's in his 50s, says now that his asthma is under control, he can swim two miles a day to keep fit and healthy. Yellow and green boxes on social media feeds mean that your friends have been sucked into the world of Wordle, the increasingly popular free online word game. Guessing a new five-letter word every day sounds simple, but Catherine Loveday, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Westminster, explains just how much work the brain does to help solve the puzzle.

As Omicron cases continue to strain hospitals across the country, the Surgeon General is warning that the worst is yet to come. Here in Cook County, new data shows that Black Chicagoans and suburban residents over 60 are dying at disproportionate rates.

As Omicron cases surge, many of the most reliable treatments are still effective. Infections are less serious, and the need for vaccinations is limited. Locally, Littel is having success filling ivermectin prescriptions, which joins a long list of proven therapeutics.

Dr. Ayisha Kurji first noticed the uptick in children and teens admitted to hospital in the spring of 2020. Some had cardiovascular damage. Some had gastrointestinal issues. But it wasn't because of Covid-19. Instead, she kept seeing children and adolescents hospitalized with eating disorders. "They were so sick, so medically unwell," said Kurji. "We started to track it." As familiar routines evaporated and face-to-face interactions vanished after school cancelations, Kurji said across Canada, outpatient referrals for eating disorders shot up 60 per cent, largely driven by an increase in anorexia nervosa. Kurji is one of the only paediatricians in Saskatchewan who specializes in treating children and teens with eating disorders. During the pandemic, she said inpatient hospitalizations for eating disorders tripled. The phenomenon is not isolated, with doctors in Canada and internationally observing the same spike, Kurji said. "In the pandemic where we've seen school closures and things like that, we've also seen more kids with depression, more kids with anxiety, and this eating disorder trend is huge," she said. Kurji shared red flags for eating disorders, and emphasized the need for parents to keep an eye on children and teens who develop new habits around food and exercise. "As a pediatrician, as a mom, we need to be putting our kids first," said Kurji. In this episode, she talks about her path to pediatrics, one that included a bachelor's degree in psychology before she entered medical school at the University of Calgary.  Kurji completed her residency in Saskatchewan, and is now an assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Saskatchewan's College of Medicine. Almost two years into the pandemic, she's now compiling her observations on the spike in eating disorders into an article for peer review.  As Omicron infects a growing number of people, she said it's important to learn from the early days of the pandemic. "I think we need to be really careful how we approach things like school closures and delays," she said. "Sometimes they might be needed, but we need to keep in mind that that's going to have an effect on our kids and we need to be prepared." Kurji also said popular culture and social media sites also tend bombard young people with questionable messages about food, body image, and beauty. "When you're watching together, or if you see something like that, it's a good idea that you say 'let's pause this and let's talk about it," Kurji said.  She said parents need to actively reframe discussions around outward appearances, in favour of talking about active living, and what a person's body can do. "Eating disorders really speak to me as my special thing where I feel like I can make a difference," she said.  Left untreated, she said patients who suffer from anorexia and purging often go on to struggle with food as adults, increasing their risk of death by five per cent each decade. "Catching things early makes a huge difference," said Kurji Further resources are available at The National Eating Disorder Information Centre (NEDIC) and at the Kelty Mental Health resource centre.   

As Omicron infections spike, some experts say it's time to accept that Covid is here to stay, but we need a new strategy for living with it.

As Omicron sweeps the world Guy and Matthew speak with Darcy Jaffe, a Senior Vice President at the Washington State Hospital Association responsible for Safety and Quality. Darcy discusses how collaboration, cooperation, and communication across hospitals has increased COVID safety and what safety in a hospital really means. We discuss how rural hospitals have met the challenges of COVID and the serious risks when a neighboring state has a different response to COVID and drains local resources. Conversations explore the complications, and the vital needs, of mental health care during the pandemic, how maternity care and giving birth in hospitals has changed during COVID, and why Washington state is a leader in COVID care. Also, Guy helps Matthew learn what a travel nurse is and how to correctly pronounce 'Om... Om.. Omicron". 

Another soggy lead from the US spurred cautious local trading, although with the Nasdaq clawing back losses our tech sector experienced selective buy the dip action. Financials had an awful day - closing down over 1% - despite the fact that banks tend to benefit from rising interest rates.

As Omicron and Delta infections run wild across Canada and the U.S., and many healthy people tout it's mildness (like they they've been saying it's a "flu" in March 2020), who is speaking up for the vulnerable and elderly they are destined to infect? Dr. Jennifer Baumbusch is my guest. And how about the nurses on the front lines. They've been silenced by administrators and unions and now they're being told to wear an N95 mask only with approval when Omicron is so contagious. RN Paula Leveke joins me. Plus, men now have one more compelling reason to get a COVID-19 vaccine — doctors suspect the new coronavirus could make it hard to perform in the bedroom. And what are the most common New Year's resolutions? Finally, what yours need to be in a pandemic. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rich discussed how some medical experts believe we might be over-vaccinating the population now that Omicron has become wide spreading across the world. As Omicron is known to be more infectious but show less symptoms/disease, it could be the sign of the end of the pandemic.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In our continuing series looking at the latest medical research and news on COVID-19, Larry Mantle speaks with Dr. Shruti Gohil professor of medicine and associate medical director for epidemiology and infection prevention at UC Irvine's School of Medicine. Topics today include: FDA authorizes Merck's COVID-19 pill, but stresses its use should be limited.  Why does the Omicron variant spread so easily?  Biden announced 500 million free test at-home test kits, but when will they be available?  The changing definition of “fully vaccinated” as Omicron spreads.  After the flu virtually disappeared last year, it's made an unwelcome comeback.  Study suggests three doses of China's Sinovac vaccine fails to protect against Omicron.  ‘Staggeringly fast rise' in L.A. County coronavirus cases triggers alarm.  Experts say that Covid-19 is shifting towards becoming an endemic disease.  Omicron surge further complicates a year filled with unruly passengers for airlines.  Israel considers approving fourth vaccine dose.  Israel agreed to trade data on their vaccination efforts in exchange for locking down a supply, now privacy concerns have arisen.  As Omicron spreads, older americans are displaying a mix of worry and resolve.  California will send at-home tests to K-12 students.  This program is made possible in part by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, a private corporation funded by the American people.

As Omicron (the new variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus) threatens to overwhelm hospitals around the world, Vishal Bali, Executive Chairman of Asia Healthcare Holdings, calls for public and private hospitals to plan together to tackle the possible surge in India. And with another pandemic-dominated year drawing to an end, Bali foresees more “virtualisation” of care through remote or online methods, even as he stresses the need for reforms in medical education to graduate more doctors, nurses and paramedical staff. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/business-line/message

As Omicron cases rise in the lead up to Christmas, many families are confused about whether they will be allowed to visit their loved ones in aged care facilities due to inconsistent guidelines, particularly around unvaccinated visitors. Some advocates are calling for clearer and more coherent COVID rules to ensure that aged care home residents are kept safe without being cut off from their families.

As Omicron cases rise exponentially across the country... we look at the potential 'long term effects' of the virus, even if you get a mild case. Colin Furness of the University of Toronto explains why avoiding getting sick is important.

When it comes to the surging Omicron variant of COVID, just about all I'm hearing is advice about holiday planning. Should one attend a holiday party? Travel? Meet friends at a restaurant?Much of the answer boils down to how to calculate one's tolerance for risk when so little is known about Omicron except that it spreads easily. Experts are throwing around a lot of numbers. Columnists are sharing their own personal calculations. I understand. We're all a bit spooked and don't know exactly what to do. Calculations offer a degree of reassuring certitude. But why does America need to turn this latest COVID surge — as we do so much else — into a question of individual risk, personal calculation, and self-concerned choice? Personal responsibility is important, of course. But I worry that this hubbub over individual risk assessment is distracting us from what we need to do now as a society to be readier for Omicron than we were for Delta or for the first COVID surge.It also plays directly into the hands of anti-vaxxers who want to believe COVID is only about personal choice. On Friday's Fox Business, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was asked if he was getting the booster. DeSantis smirked, shook his head no, and then went into a long harangue about why people should make vaccine decisions “for themselves.”This past weekend, at Turning Point USA, the MAGA college Republican spin-off (whose founder died from COVID-19 last summer), Sarah Palin said it would be “over my dead body” that she got vaccinated (no pun intended). And Tucker Carlson (perhaps the most harmful person in America these days) railed against those who are urging vaccination, saying they just want to “punish people.” Carlson then praised the “naturally immune” who “earned it.”It's too easy for the rest of us to respond to this rubbish by telling ourselves that anti-vaxxers will pay the price because they're putting themselves at much higher risk of being hospitalized and even dying. But this kind of thinking reflects the same dangerous fallacy — that each of us must make such life-or-death decisions for themselves. On Friday, Jeff Zients, the White House COVID coordinator, inadvertently promoted this fallacy by telling reporters that while the administration will work to minimize Omicron disruption for the vaccinated, the unvaccinated should expect “a winter of severe illness and death for yourselves, your families....”In reality, all of us are in this together. And so far, all of us together are failing. America's rate of deaths from COVID is the highest of all advanced nations. Fewer than 62 percent of us are fully vaccinated — the lowest of all advanced nations. Those who continue to refuse to get vaccinated are endangering the rest of us — and not just because they're increasing the risk of a “breakthrough” infection in those of us who have been fully vaccinated. As Omicron surges, the unvaccinated are likely to overwhelm hospitals throughout the land, making it harder for our entire health system to respond to all health needs and emergencies.The unvaccinated are also incubators for the next variant.Anti-vaxxers aside, the emphasis on individual risk is allowing us to forget the social needs that became exposed when the pandemic first hit in early 2020 — most of which are still unmet. Thanks for subscribing to my newsletter. If you'd like to support this work, please consider a paid or gift subscription. We're still doing almost no contact tracing compared to other advanced nations. Rapid COVID tests are still difficult to find, and too expensive. (The free tests that the Biden administration is touting won't be available until next month.) N95 masks are still in short supply. There's still little or no coordination among different levels of government. Biden's order that large businesses require employees to be vaccinated remains stuck in the federal courts. Hospitals in many places still don't have enough Intensive Care Units. We could once again face a shortage of ventilators.In addition, too many workplaces are still unsafe. They're still not required to test employees and report all COVID infections. They still don't have to provide personal protective equipment. Workers still can't stay home for fear getting the Omicron variant at work because we still don't have a national system of paid leave (thanks to Joe Manchin and senate Republicans). They can't quit their jobs because extended unemployment insurance has run out.  I'm unable to advise you about whether you should attend that holiday party or cancel your travel plans. But I can assure you that what we're facing is not just a matter of personal choice or individual risk tolerance. We're facing another test of America's capacity to respond to a public-health crisis. And the safety of every one of us depends on the nation doing better this time than we did before. What do you think? This is a public episode.

As Omicron cases rise, Labor says Scott Morrison is failing to act on public health advice calling for mask mandates.

As Omicron cases emerge around Australia, vaccine providers are struggling to meet demand for boosters. Trent Twomey, the National President of the Pharmacy Guild of Australia, says the small number of pharmacies participating in the booster rollout are "completely overwhelmed" by the current spike in demand.

Sen. Joe Manchin deals a potential death-blow to President Biden's "Build Back Better" plan. Can any of Democrats' social agenda survive? As Omicron sweeps the U.S., many are wondering why Americans who are vaccinated and boosted can't just cope with the virus like they do the seasonal flu. And, why a viral TikTok threat has disrupted dozens of school systems across several states just before Christmas.

As Omicron threatens to swamp the country, the current booster rollout is lagging, with fewer than half those eligible for a third shot actually getting the jab. That issue will be on the table at tomorrow's emergency meeting of National Cabinet.

As Omicron variant cases spread in other countries, there's a rush to impose travel bans. At least 46 countries and territories have imposed travel restrictions from several African countries following the discovery of the variant. Japan and Israel have banned all foreign nationals from entering their countries. Late today, responding to the potential threat, and the word "potential" should be underscored here, the CDC amped-up its advice on vaccine boosters. The old word was that anyone 18 or older "may" get a booster. The new word they've chosen is "should." Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla joins Anderson to talk boosters, possible new versions of the vaccine and a pill the company has been testing to treat Covid.  Also, Tiger Woods says his days of being a full-time golfer are over.
