Podcasts about Chagas

In honor of Pride Month, the OneHaas Alumni Podcast is pleased to welcome Lucas Chagas Vital to the show. Lucas is a graduate of the full-time MBA program and a principal in corporate strategy and development for Intuit. For Lucas, growing up gay in Sao Paolo, Brazil wasn't always easy. He knew he was gay from a young age, but between attending conservative catholic schools and starting his career in the conservative banking world of Brazil from over a decade ago, he worried he wouldn't be accepted if he came out at work. So he set out to find a more welcoming and accepting culture for LGBTQ people, and found one at Berkeley Haas. On this episode, Lucas joins host Sean Li to talk about his childhood in Sao Paolo, his fulfilling experience with Q@Haas as co-president, and how he's continued that advocacy work since then through inclusion programs at Intuit and other workplaces. *OneHaas Alumni Podcast is a production of Haas School of Business and is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:On his decision to leave Brazil for the U.S.  ”So I was not out in the work place. I grew up attending a Catholic school and a Catholic university. And even though I was out earlier than many back then, because I came out in junior high school, I was gay-bashed with my two lesbians friends, so there were a lot of stories of coming out and being back in the closet and getting discriminated against and working through that. And when I learned more about the difference of the reality here, at least 10 years ago, that was one of the things that motivated me a lot, right?”On the work that still needs to be done for LGBTQ rights ”Our rights should never be taken for granted, right? Because the LGBTQ+ rights and any other minority rights, they can be lost at any time… Definitely as a cisgender gay man, I acknowledge the better privilege that we have when we compare with the transgender population, right? They are in the front. They are the ones who have so much more attacks and hate and we're hearing more and more right now. So how can we be an ally for that?”On celebrating Pride“ Thinking about the Pride month ahead of us, I feel that Pride Month, it's not only for fun and parties. I think Pride Month, it's how we got here, right? …I remember when I got here in the US and I was so excited with all the Pride initiatives, and I used to hear a lot of complaints of people saying, "Oh, but there is so much corporate all around."And I said, "Yeah, but the first Prides, most of the early Prides actually that I went to in Brazil, we didn't have any corporate support, and we did not have that much visibility. We didn't have that much support, and we had to hide a lot" So there are positive things that we can think about how far we got here”On his time with Q@Haas“ I spent most of my time at Haas, apart from recruiting, at Q@Haas. So we had a very active group of people…So we organized many events…one event was called Not Your Gay Best Friend, to help break all the stereotypes of just being “the gay best friend”, which for me was very interesting as well because it was also a very American culture thing to learn.And then of course, the Coming Out Week, which was a big event. The Coming Out Monologues was actually my first time telling my coming out story to a big audience, and in English.”Show Links:LinkedIn ProfileQ@Haas

O Ministério da Saúde anunciou um investimento de R$ 12 milhões para reforçar o combate à doença de Chagas em 155 municípios prioritários, distribuídos em 17 estados. A iniciativa busca ampliar a vigilância, o diagnóstico e o controle de uma doença que ainda atinge milhões de pessoas e que, apenas em 2024, causou cerca de quatro mil mortes. Considerada negligenciada, a doença de Chagas continua sendo um desafio relevante de saúde pública, especialmente em regiões mais vulneráveis. Para analisar o impacto do investimento e os caminhos para o enfrentamento da doença, o JR 15 Minutos conversa com o infectologista Hemerson Luz.

Na última terça-feira, 14 de abril, foi celebrado o Dia Mundial da Doença de Chagas, causada pelo protozoário Trypanosoma cruzi e transmitida pelo inseto conhecido como "barbeiro". Estimativas apontam cerca de 3 milhões de infectados no Brasil, sendo o Pará o estado com mais número de casos. Marcelo Gonçalves, farmacêutico e bioquímico, explica como a doença é contraída, os riscos das formas crônicas e os desafios que representa para a saúde pública. Acompanhe a entrevista.

Por muito tempo, as mães foram acusadas erroneamente de ser uma “fonte de infecção” para a doença congênita “ao passar o parasita às crianças”; realidade mostra que falta de prevenção e tratamento impedem auxílio; mundo tem 8 milhões de infecções e 10 mil mortes por ano.

Hoy es el Día Mundial de la Enfermedad de Chagas. Hace más de 100 años, el médico brasileño Carlos Chagas identificó esta enfermedad parasitaria y desde entonces lleva su nombre. Durante décadas se ha estudiado su impacto y posibles tratamientos, pero la detección precoz sigue siendo clave. La mayoría de los contagios se producen por la picadura de una chinche conocida como “besucona”, cuyo “beso” puede causar graves complicaciones e incluso la muerte. Se estima que hasta 10.000 personas fallecen cada año, principalmente en América Latina, donde es endémica. Sin embargo, los expertos advierten que la globalización está favoreciendo su expansión a otras regiones del mundo. Charlamos con la doctora Irene Losada, coordinadora de la Iniciativa de Chagas en ISGlobal y con la doctora Marina Gold, directora de Fundación Mundo Sano.También abordamos el cambio de rumbo de Gustavo Petro en la guerra arancelaria con Ecuador; el nuevo cargo de Vladimir Padrino en el ejecutivo venezolano o el último bombardeo de EE.UU. en el Pacífico en el marco de la operación 'Lanza del sur'.

Welcome back Arthro-Pod listeners! Chagas disease has been in the news this year after a recent paper stated that it should be considered endemic to the United States. But what does that mean, and what evidence is there for the claim? This week Michael leads the crew in a discussion about Chagas disease and the kissing bugs that vector the pathogen that causes it. We talk about where the disease is primarily found, potential evolutionary history of the pathogen and kissing bugs, non-bug transmission routes, and whether we should be concerned that it is endemic to North America north of Mexico.   ----------------------------------------------- Get the show through Apple Podcast, Spotify, or your favorite podcatching app!

This week, Aebhric talks with Jason Jarvis, a former Special Forces medic and current PhD candidate, and discusses Chagas disease, a tropical disease transmitted by the kissing bug. He explains the life cycle of the bug, the transmission of the disease, its clinical presentation, and the challenges in diagnosis and treatment. The conversation emphasises the importance of awareness and preventive measures, especially as Chagas disease is spreading to new regions, including parts of the United States. The discussion concludes with key take-home messages for healthcare providers and the need for ongoing education in tropical medicine.TakeawaysChagas disease is transmitted by the kissing bug, primarily in Central and South America.The life cycle of the kissing bug involves several stages, including the transmission of the parasite through its faeces.Clinical diagnosis is essential, especially in endemic areas where the disease is prevalent.The acute phase of Chagas disease is easier to treat than the chronic phase, which can lead to severe complications.Preventive measures include avoiding exposure to kissing bugs and ensuring blood products are screened for the disease.Chagas disease can also be transmitted through blood transfusions and organ transplants.Healthcare providers should be aware of the symptoms and risk factors associated with Chagas disease.The disease is now spreading to parts of the continental US, raising public health concerns.Ongoing education and awareness of tropical diseases are crucial for healthcare providers.The conversation highlights the importance of understanding the global health implications of diseases like Chagas.

Peter Gillooly reflects on Charlie Kirk's legacy as a vaccine skeptic and podcaster, warns about rising political violence, and discusses spike protein detox solutions and new concerns over the parasitic disease Chagas.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. knows all too well the pain of political assassination. Having lost both his father and uncle to assassins’ bullets, RFK Jr. now reflects on the brutal killing of Charlie Kirk. On Stinchfield, we highlight his powerful words about Charlie, and the haunting parallels he faces with his own family’s tragic history. This is a conversation that puts into perspective the cost of leadership in a nation under spiritual and cultural attack. But the threats facing America aren’t just political — they’re biological. A new health crisis is creeping into our borders: Chagas disease. Once thought to be confined to Latin America, it is now spreading across the United States, carried by the so-called “kissing bug.” We break down why experts are warning this could become a full-blown epidemic, and Dr. James Thorp joins us with the medical truth you won’t hear from the mainstream media. This episode pulls no punches. From the assassination of a conservative icon, to the bio-threats silently invading our communities, Stinchfield exposes the dangers America must face head-on.

Chagas disease has become so ubiquitous in the southern part of the United States that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently put out a report saying that it's now time to consider it “endemic.” Let's go through what the disease is, how it's spread, and what you can do to keep yourself safe.

Is it finally happening? I've been railing for years that if we can't fix something as simple as the gas can, we can't fix America. Now the EPA agrees and is working to “Make Gas Cans Great Again by Improving Flow”. Angela and I also discuss increased electric rates, bathroom issues in Yavapai County, Chagas disease, Rep. Ansari's disconnect, the EV collapse, Gavin Newsom and his aspirations, vegetable powered mega yachts so billionaires can feel good and more!
