Podcasts about Ebola

Dive into the wildly unpredictable world of "The Other Side of Midnight," an open-ended late-night talk show where absolutely no topic is off-limits. Hosted by the endlessly inquisitive Lionel, this episode seamlessly pivots from the terrifying realities of zoonotic viruses and bat caves in Uganda to intense caller debates over geopolitics and the history of vaccines. When he's not questioning the origins of Ebola or pondering telepathic UFOs and Einstein's time dilation, Lionel geeks out over the mathematical magic of drum beats, the history of analog music gear, and the clever street-sound samples used by Billie Eilish. It is an entertaining, rapid-fire ventilation of ideas exploring everything from demanding apologies from aliens to the lost art of 1918 vaudeville buck-and-wing dancing.

Deep in the heart of Mount Elgon in Kenya lies Kitum Cave, a natural wonder carved out of volcanic rock that has become infamous not for its beauty, but for the terrifying biological mystery lurking within its dark recesses—the Marburg virus. In this video, we're diving headfirst into the intersection of geology, ecology, and virology to unravel why this cave has earned a reputation as one of the deadliest places on Earth. Kitum Cave is home to colonies of Egyptian fruit bats, which scientists have long identified as the natural reservoir of filoviruses like Marburg, and it's here that humans have had fateful encounters leading to some of the most horrifying outbreaks of viral hemorrhagic fever known to science. Marburg virus, closely related to Ebola, is a filovirus capable of causing catastrophic systemic infection—destroying vascular integrity, shutting down the immune system, and essentially liquefying organs as cytokine storms ravage the body. We'll be breaking down the biology of how the virus hijacks host cells using its glycoproteins, replicates rapidly within monocytes and macrophages, and creates a cascade of tissue necrosis, coagulopathy, and multi-organ failure. Beyond the cellular level, we'll also examine the evolutionary advantage bats hold as viral carriers, from their high metabolic rates and unique immune adaptations to their ecological role as disease reservoirs that bridge the gap between wildlife and human infection. Kitum Cave itself plays a critical role, acting as both a mineral salt lick for elephants and antelope and a densely populated roost for bats—making it a hotspot for cross-species viral spillover events. In this breakdown, we'll revisit historical cases such as the 1980 and 1987 Marburg outbreaks linked to visitors of the cave, analyze how modern epidemiology tracks the spread of the virus, and look into why the Marburg pathogen remains a Level 4 biosafety threat with no approved vaccine or specific antiviral treatment. Instead, containment relies on quarantine, barrier nursing, and supportive care, a grim reminder of just how vulnerable humans still are to zoonotic spillovers from caves like Kitum. As we peel back the layers of geology, ecology, and virology, you'll see how this single cave represents a perfect storm for disease emergence—a literal natural laboratory where viruses incubate in the shadows, waiting for the next unlucky host to step inside. So if you've ever wondered why Kitum Cave became the epicenter of viral legend and why Marburg continues to terrify virologists to this day, buckle in—because this is the biology of one of the most dangerous viral hideouts on Earth.

Discover the chilling reality of illegal Chinese bio labs operating on U.S. soil and why these facilities represent a sophisticated threat to national security. This episode of the P.A.S. Report features retired FBI Supervisory Intel Analyst George Hill, who exposes the dangerous intersection of biological agents, foreign funding, and domestic disruption. As federal agencies receive billions in funding and remain silent, it was a local housing inspector who uncovered a high-level laboratory containing pathogens like Ebola and COVID-19 hidden in plain sight. Professor Nick Giordano and George Hill also examine the emergence of organized, insurgency-style movements, government complacency, and the political class's failure to respond to escalating threats. What You'll Learn Understand how Chinese bio labs in the U.S. create biological and strategic national security risks Discover why biological agents can function as weapons of mass disruption without traditional warfare Explore how foreign-funding and our tax dollars are being funneled to NGOs fueling domestic political instability Identify the warning signs of insurgency-style coordination across multiple U.S. cities Hear why current domestic tensions more closely resemble the Russian Bolshevik revolution than the civil unrest of the 1960s As geopolitical tensions rise and internal divisions deepen, vigilance and accountability are no longer optional. Listen now for a serious analysis of the threats facing the republic and what it means for America's future.

LEO Round Table with Chip DeBlock S11E029, Special Ops Officers Fatally Shoot Gunman Who Was Harboring A Teenage Girl LEO Round Table: Federal Injunctions, Bio-Hazard Threats, and Agency Dynamics LEO Round Table: Law Enforcement News Professional perspectives on the California Mask Ban ruling and national security threats. Feb 12, 2026 Top Story Analysis Federal Judge Blocks California's "No Secret Police Act" Judge Kristina Schneider (Clinton appointee) issued a preliminary injunction against the law forcing ICE agents to remove masks during operations, citing the Supremacy Clause. "These federal agents are harassed, doxed, obstructed, and attacked on a regular basis just for doing their jobs. We have no tolerance for it."— Pam Bondi, Attorney General Legal Conflict CA exempted state officers while penalizing feds with $10k fines. The "Win" Claim Newsom claims victory as the court upheld agency ID requirements. Incident Briefings Vegas Illicit Bio Lab 1,000+ pieces of evidence found in home owned by Chinese nationals; labels for HIV, Ebola, and COVID-19. Baltimore OIS Suspect on bicycle fired a .357 Taurus revolver at officers during a ground struggle; suspect fatally shot. Vermont Use of Force Officers cleared in fatal shooting of suspect attempting to ram them with a vehicle in reverse/drive. Panelists Chip DeBlock (Host)Dr. Joel Schultz (Chief)Dr. Travis Yates (Major) #PublicSafety #ConstitutionalLaw #OfficerSafety Reading Time: ~8 mins • Target: Law Enforcement Professionals This episode of the LEO Round Table features a panel of law enforcement veterans discussing a federal judge's block of California's mask ban for ICE agents, the discovery of an illicit bio lab in Las Vegas, and a rigorous debate on the competence and challenges of small-town versus large-city policing. The discussion highlights the intersection of constitutional law, national security, and tactical reality. Detailed Summary 1. Legal Victory Against California's "No Secret Police Act" A federal judge, Kristina Schneider, issued a preliminary injunction against California's law that sought to prevent ICE agents from wearing masks during operations. The court ruled that the act likely violates the Supremacy Clause, as it specifically targeted federal agents while exempting state and local officers. The panel criticized Governor Gavin Newsom's attempt to frame the ruling as a "win" for accountability, arguing that the law was political theater designed to facilitate the doxing and harassment of federal officers. Legal Focus: The Supremacy Clause The court's decision hinged on the principle that federal law takes precedence over conflicting state laws. Key points included: Discriminatory Enforcement: The law penalized federal agents while allowing state officers to remain masked. Operational Safety: Masking is essential to prevent federal agents from being doxed or targeted by retaliatory threats. Injunction Status: Granted because the federal government is highly likely to prevail on the merits. 2. The Debate: Small Town vs. Large Agency Competence The panel engaged in a sharp debate regarding the "second string" stereotype of campus and rural police. While host Chip DeBlock suggested that elite candidates gravitate toward large agencies like Tampa PD, Dr. Joel Schultz and Dr. Travis Yates countered that small-town officers often possess a broader range of experience because they must handle investigations from start to finish. They emphasized that rural officers face unique dangers, such as responding to high-risk calls solo with backup often an hour or more away. 3. National Security: Illicit Bio Lab in Las Vegas Authorities recently uncovered a bio lab in a Las Vegas residence owned by Chinese nationals. The site contained over 1,000 pieces of evidence, including vials labeled with pathogens such as HIV, Ebola, Malaria, and COVID-19. The panel expressed concern over the lack of national media coverage and emphasized that local patrol officers or informants are often the first line of defense against such unconventional threats. They also noted the importance of maintaining specialized equipment like hazmat suits, which are often funded through post-9/11 federal grants. Evidence Summary: Las Vegas Bio Lab Pathogens Found: HIV, Ebola, TB, Malaria, COVID-19 Ownership: Chinese National (Xu), previously linked to a CA lab Scale: 1,000+ pieces of biological/hazardous material 4. Tactical Analysis of Officer-Involved Shootings The panel reviewed two recent incidents: Baltimore, MD: Officers shot a suspect who produced a .357 Taurus revolver during a struggle. The panel noted the importance of "tactical reloads" and the need for high urgency when a suspect is known to be armed. Springfield, VT: A suspect was fatally shot after attempting to use his vehicle as a weapon against officers. The panel defended the officers' actions, stating that the legal standard is "reasonable and articulable fear," and that a vehicle's intent is defined by the officer's perception of the imminent threat. Key Data $10,000: The starting civil fine California intended to charge for each violation of the mask ban. 1,000+: Pieces of evidence recovered from the Las Vegas illicit bio lab. 250,000: Deployments of "The Glove" (conductive distraction technology) with zero reported deaths. .357 Taurus: The high-caliber revolver used by the suspect in the Baltimore shooting. To-Do / Next Steps Training Requirement: Officers must practice tactical reloads without taking their eyes off the threat. Report Writing: Officers must ensure reports for use-of-force incidents are "articulable," documenting the science of perception and physics to justify deadly force. Vigilance: Local agencies must remain alert for unconventional threats like illicit labs, as they are often the first to encounter them before federal intervention. Conclusion The discussion underscores a period of high tension between state policy and federal law enforcement safety. Whether dealing with biological threats in residential areas or the split-second decision to fire on a vehicle, the panel concludes that rigorous training, clear report writing, and constitutional protections remain the primary safeguards for law enforcement professionals.

//The Wire//2300Z February 3, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: US NAVY SHOOTS DOWN IRANIAN DRONE NEAR THE ABRAHAM LINCOLN CSG. IRANIAN FORCES ATTEMPT TO HIJACK STRATEGIC AMERICAN OIL TANKER. CHINESE BIOLAB RAIDED AT RESIDENCE IN LAS VEGAS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: This afternoon the US Navy shot down an Iranian drone that was approaching the USS Abraham Lincoln CSG, as it was conducting maneuvers off the coast of Oman. No further details have been provided on the shootdown, though Iranian forces have continued drone surveillance of American forces in the region.Earlier this morning, the UK Maritime Trade Operations Center (UKMTO) reported an incident in the Strait of Hormuz, involving unidentified forces in small boats hailing a commercial vessel in an attempt to persuade the vessel to stop. This vessel was later identified as the M/T *STENA IMPERATIVE*, and the ship was escorted through the Strait by an American warship.Analyst Comment: Iranian forces hijacking ships is an extremely common occurrence throughout the region, but trying to snatch the STENA IMPERATIVE was a bold move. This is not just any random oil tanker, this vessel is one of the main ships in the US Navy's Tanker Security Program, serving as one of the main vessels transporting fuel and oil around the world for the US Navy. As such, the Iranians attempting to target a strategic military resource, on the same day that negotiations began regarding their nuclear program, is probably not a wise move when it comes to avoiding American airstrikes.-HomeFront-Minnesota: The checkpoints that were established over the weekend in south Minneapolis were dismantled by the Minneapolis Police Department yesterday evening. No arrests were made at the scene.Throughout the Twin Cities intelligence collection efforts continue, as ICEWatch activists remain observant for ICE activity. More direct crimes are also being committed as well, as activists have begun lasing Border Patrol aircraft, continuing a tactic that has been used in other far-left strongholds throughout the nation. Nevada: Yesterday, details came to light regarding a raid that was conducted by the FBI at a residential address in Las Vegas on Saturday. During the raid, centrifuges and freezers allegedly containing samples of infectious diseases were found at this location, along with approximately 1,000 dead mice. One individual, Ori Solomon, was arrested at the scene, and is assessed to be the property manager for this facility.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The kingpin involved in the Nevada biolab appears to be David He, also known as Jiabei "Jesse" Zhu...the same individual presently indicted for setting up similar biological facilities in Reedley, California back in 2022. During that initial investigation, Jessie was indicted for allegedly selling fake COVID test kits. However, after the story went viral, it eventually became clear that a number of suspects were not actually making fake medical devices (as they were initially charged with)...they were actually running a clandestine biological weapons facility. The Reedley Lab was investigated by multiple entities, to include a Congressional Committee that was stood up to investigate this location.The Reedley Biolab was found to be running multiple illegal biological research projects, all of which appeared to be weaponizing diseases such as tuberculosis, Ebola, and agricultural blight, for release within the United States. As this 2022 case is still being prosecuted, not many details have been made public, beyond the initial DoJ notice on the arrests. At the time of this earlier case, the CDC famously did not cooperate with the investigation, did not test all samples, and tried to cover up the incident altogether (as indicated by the Congressional report, at least). Perhaps the most

"The United States does not have a national cancer registry. We have a bunch of state registries. Some of those registries do collaborate and share information, but the issue is the registries that do exist typically do not report cancer by occupation. So, we cannot get our arms around the potential work-relatedness of the health outcome given the current way the state registries collect information. What we're trying to set up, is a way to make what is currently an invisible risk, visible," ONS member Melissa McDiarmid, MD, MPH, DABT, professor of medicine and epidemiology and public health director of the division of occupational and environmental medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the University of Maryland School of Medicine Hazardous Drug Safety Center Exposure Registry.

Highlights From This Episode "We thought that in order to answer some of the unclear questions about health risk, we would set up an exposure registry, in this case, for oncology personnel who handle the drugs. This would then create a cohort that we could ask questions to. For example, we could try to characterize whether there is a cancer excess in this group. Or characterize the reproductive abnormalities in excess that people are experiencing." TS 6:21 "It's sort of counterintuitive that the healthcare industry, whose mission itself is care of the sick, is a high-hazard industry. We typically think about the risk as being from infectious diseases, and certainly we've all lived in our practice lifetime through some examples of that. Even before COVID-19, some of us were doing preparation for Ebola and that sort of thing. So, we're kind of used to that. But the hazards that you kind of grew up with, we've routinized or normalized handling group one, human carcinogens, which a number of these drugs are—it's just something we do every day. Well, it is, but we have to do it with respect and with care every day. And I think sometimes in that routineness of it, we have sort of lost sight of the vigilance that we need to maintain." TS 11:19 "It's very easy in the life cycle of a drug in an organization to do something that doesn't just impact you, but unknowingly, you've contaminated a surface for somebody who comes behind you. Who maybe doesn't have plastic protective equipment on because something that got contaminated shouldn't have been contaminated in the first place. If we could all be thinking of it as more of a team sport, especially in terms of safe handling, that our disposition and drug handling affects not just us and our health, but those of our colleagues." TS 24:47 "For the job history pieces, we ask what year you started, what year you stopped, and we ask about estimations of handling. So we'll be able to come up with either a duration or some kind of metric for the intensity and duration of your handling history, which will then permit us to sort the population who completed the survey into sort of low, medium, high. And we'll see whether the health outcomes that are being reported are influenced by that drug handling history." TS 27:45 "The idea that we aren't exposed to the same therapeutic dose we give to our patients is absolutely true. However, the dosing schedule to them versus us is very different, and we are exposed frequently, if not daily, to very small concentrations. They don't reach a cytotoxic dose necessarily, but we do know from a lot of studies that either ourselves or our colleagues are taking up drug from contaminated work environments. And you've probably seen there is an awful lot of intermediate evidence looking at genotoxic insult in pharmacists and nurses who handle the drugs. So clearly we're showing uptake and we're showing that there are biologically plausible, concerning measures that are taking place in us. So, I think that we need to come back and circle around the idea that we need to have deep respect for the toxicity of these agents." TS 35:03

As we all learned in 2020, getting ahead of the next major pandemic is a matter of global concern. For the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, or CEPI (cepi.net), it is their reason for existing. Joining me for this conversation are Valentina Bernasconi, Head of Laboratory Science for CEPI, and Marie-Eve Poupart, Lead Scientist In Charles River's Immunology department. Together we discuss CEPI's progress so far, how Charles River is contributing to the cause, and how we can plan for the unknown Disease X while simultaneously handling current outbreaks of deadly diseases like Ebola, Marburg, Nipah virus, Lassa Fever, and chikungunya.

You've solved other problems in the past. You can solve this one.Millions of people worldwide face the devastating impact of cancer, with countless lives lost each year to tumors that no longer respond to existing treatments. Dr. Dale Walker, Co-founder and CEO of The Burlington HC Research Group (BHCRG), is working to change that narrative with her groundbreaking development of a new family of anti-cancer drugs. These drugs have the potential to revolutionize treatment for cancers that have become resistant to current therapies.“We tested our drugs against 15 human cancer cell lines, representative of seven different tissues, and the drug works against all of them,” Dale explained. In the U.S. alone, over 600,000 people die annually from cancer, often because their tumors no longer respond to treatment. Dale's research offers a glimmer of hope for patients and their families.Unlike traditional drug development that focuses on a single compound, Dale and her team have created a family of drugs—called BRG drugs—by combining two FDA-approved ingredients in a novel way. These drugs not only enhance the effectiveness of existing cancer treatments but also demonstrate the ability to kill nearly all cancer cells after a single dose in preclinical studies. “Most anti-cancer agents just slow tumor growth. Ours hit both marks—killing tumor cells at a safe dose level,” she said.With such promising results, Dale and her husband Vernon, who co-leads the research, are pushing forward. However, taking these drugs through the necessary safety and efficacy tests requires significant funding. To accelerate progress, BHCRG is raising capital through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on the FundingHope platform. Crowdfunding offers a faster alternative to traditional funding sources, enabling the Walkers to bypass lengthy government grant timelines.“Crowdfunding is a lifeline. We have family members and friends with cancer. We can't wait years,” Dale shared. For investors, the opportunity to back a potential game-changing cancer therapy is compelling, both for its societal impact and long-term financial potential.Dale's passion and perseverance shine through in her work. Her innovative approach to drug development could save countless lives. Supporting her mission on Funding Hope isn't just an investment in a company—it's an investment in hope.tl;dr:Dale Walker shares her innovative work on new anti-cancer drugs targeting resistant tumors.BHCRG's BRG drugs show promising preclinical results, killing almost all tumor cells with one dose.Dale explains crowdfunding's role in accelerating drug development for life-saving cancer treatments.She discusses perseverance as her superpower, solving challenges by embracing and examining problems.Today's episode highlights how crowdfunding enables investors to support impactful innovations in healthcare.How to Develop Perseverance in Problem-Solving As a SuperpowerDale's superpower is her extraordinary ability to solve complex problems and persevere through challenges. In today's episode, she explained, “When I run into a problem, the first thing I have to do is tell myself, don't be afraid. You've solved other problems in the past. You can solve this one.” Dale emphasized that problems often contain valuable information that leads to solutions, encouraging others to examine challenges closely rather than avoiding them.After discovering that an FDA-approved drug had antiviral activity, Dale faced a seemingly insurmountable challenge: making the drug work effectively in people. “I thought, I will not be able to solve this problem. It's too hard,” she admitted. Yet, she persevered, combining the drug with another FDA-approved ingredient. This breakthrough created the BRG family of cancer drugs, which kill nearly all cancer cells in preclinical studies after a single dose. Her ability to persist through doubt and difficulty exemplifies her superpower.Tips for Developing Perseverance in Problem-Solving:Acknowledge Your Strengths: Remind yourself that you've solved tough problems before and can do it again.Examine Problems Closely: Instead of avoiding challenges, look for clues within the problem itself to guide solutions.Break Down the Problem: Address each component of the challenge one step at a time.Stay Focused: Resist the urge to pivot too quickly; often, solutions lie in persistence.Find Inspiration: Remember the impact your work can have on others to stay motivated.By following Dale's example and advice, you can make perseverance in problem-solving a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileDale M. Walker (she/her):Co-founder, owner, and Chief Executive Officer, The Burlington HC Research Group, Inc. (BHCRG)About The Burlington HC Research Group, Inc. (BHCRG): BHCRG is working to advance a new family of investigational drugs called BRG Therapeutics. Based on pre-clinical studies, two members of this family show potent anticancer activity across human cancer cell lines representing seven different tissues of origin, including lung cancer (four subtypes), prostate cancer (three types), triple-negative breast cancer (two types), ovarian cancer (two types), pancreatic cancer (one type), pleural mesothelioma (two types), and pre-myeloblastic leukemia (one type, tested with a single BRG drug). In tissue-culture models, BRG drugs demonstrate an unusually strong ability to eliminate nearly all cancer cells after a single dose while achieving this result at doses that are non-toxic to normal human cells. Each BRG drug delivers two active ingredients, and the primary component (ingredient #1) also inhibits the replication of viruses spanning all three major viral genome classes—DNA viruses, RNA viruses, and reverse-transcribing/retroviruses—with activity shown in vitro against influenza, COVID-19, HIV, and Ebola and other viruses. Although such breadth is uncommon and has led some observers to believe no drug could achieve these effects, the evidence shows that the human body naturally produces several essential compounds with similarly broad anticancer and antiviral functions; BRG drugs work through analogous biochemical mechanisms but produce stronger effects in controlled laboratory studies. These naturally occurring comparators include N-acetylcysteine, glutathione, and vitamin C (only at pharmacologic doses). Taken together, BRG Therapeutics represents a next-generation, multi-targeted approach designed to overcome one of the central limitations of modern oncology—drug resistance—by restoring normal cellular regulation, reactivating p53, correcting redox imbalance, and neutralizing reactive species to selectively eliminate cancer cells while preserving healthy tissue.Website: bhcrg.comCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/profile.php?id=61584197824692Other URL: invest.fundinghope.com/offering/brg/detailsBiographical Information: My husband Vernon and I work together as a team, and we have advanced BRG therapeutics to their present state of development by collaboration. We both are veterinarians with advanced training in pathology, so that make us ‘veterinary pathologists'. Vernon also has a PhD in experimental and molecular pathology. What many people do not know is that veterinary pathologists have key roles in drug development and safety testing. Before the discovery of the BRG drugs, most of our work focused on health risks from human exposures to environmental, workplace, or medicinal agents/compounds. We were working with BRG active ingredient #1, which is FDA-approved as the active form of a cell protective drug – that means that it protects normal cells from the damaging effects of radiation and some chemicals. We were testing the ability of this agent to protect normal cells from the deleterious effects of some of the first drugs like AZT developed to treat HIV. We were surprised to learn that this cell protective drug had antiviral activity all on its own. Even though this active ingredient had been around for several decades, no one had ever reported these results before we did. We soon learned why we were the first to make this discovery - the active ingredient of this cell protective drug worked well in tissue culture as an antiviral agent, but antiviral effects were not achieved in living animals. This sent us on a long road figuring out why this was – after all, this agent worked to protect normal cells in living animals and people, so why would it not work as an antiviral agent in the same animals and people? It actually took several years to understand the nature of the problems, and even more time to figure out a solution. That solution was the BRG therapeutics.Vernon and I had little experience studying viruses, and much more experience studying cancer and anticancer drugs, and we knew that this active ingredient had anticancer activity, so we decided to start with testing a BRG drug as an anticancer agent. Our first experiment in a human, pre-myeloblastic leukemia cell line showed us anticancer effects beyond anything that we could have imagined. We were so excited, but we still had a long journey of work and discovery ahead of us. To date we have tested two BRG drugs and they kill cancer cells in all human cancer cell lines tested to date (one drug tested in 15 human cancers, the other tested in 14). A paper summarizing these results was published in 2023.LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/dale-m-walker-bhcrgPersonal Facebook Profile: facebook.com/profile.php?id=61556212335476Support Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

On this podcast, I look at the recently declared over Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the current Marburg virus outbreak in Ethiopia. Watch the video version

It's Tuesday, December 2nd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Trump urges Venezuelan president to leave country U.S. sabers are rattling off the coast of Venezuela.   The Miami Herald reported that President Donald Trump offered Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro an ultimatum over the weekend: He said, “You can save yourself and those closest to you, but you must leave the country now.”   For any assistance in leading to Maduro's arrest, the U.S. government has placed a bounty of $50 million on the Venezuelan President.   Also, President Trump issued a warning on Saturday via Truth Social. He wrote, “To all Airlines, Pilots, Drug Dealers, and Human Traffickers, please consider THE AIRSPACE ABOVE AND SURROUNDING VENEZUELA TO BE CLOSED IN ITS ENTIRETY.” Trump designates Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist group The President also designated certain chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood organization as a terrorist group, as of Sunday.  CounterExtremism.com has counted 48 extremist individuals and groups tied to the Brotherhood. As a Muslim Brotherhood host, the nation of Qatar has transferred $1.8 billion to Gaza since 2012, some of which reportedly has gone to Hamas. That information was revealed through recent audits. 65 people died from Ebola in Congo, Africa The Democratic Republic of the Congo is dealing with another Ebola outbreak — 65 cases confirmed and 45 deaths, reports U.S. News & World Report. The last major Congolese outbreak occurred in 2018. The virus is as dangerous as rabies, the Marburg virus, and the Avian flu. Exodus 4:11 reminds us that God is in control of all health issues: “So the Lord said to him, “Who has made man's mouth? Or who makes the mute, the deaf, the seeing, or the blind? Have not I, the Lord?” Russian-Ukrainian negotiations at stalemate In other world news, the Russo-Ukrainian conflict negotiations are approaching another stalemate. Ukraine announced they will not accept territorial concessions. And French President Emmanuel Macron announced an endorsement of using frozen Russian assets to help fund Ukraine's defense. Japanese court upholds ban on homosexual marriage Japan's Tokyo court upheld the homosexual marriage ban as constitutional, reports the BBC. Of Asian states, only Thailand, Nepal, and Taiwan have legalized the practice thus far. Christian ministries ranked most and least transparent Ministry Watch has released its 2025 ratings of American ministries for financial efficiency, transparency, and donor confidence. Of the largest ministries in the United States, Medicine For All People International, Grand Canyon University, World Relief, Christian Aid Ministries, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and the Christian Broadcasting Network rate the highest. Lowest ratings go to Samaritan's Purse, Convoy of Hope, Baylor University, Pepperdine University, and Hillsdale College. Some controversy has been brewing recently over the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability and the Billy Graham Evangelical Association's withdrawal from the organization.  Top 3 ministries serving the persecuted Of the six ministries serving the persecuted saints, Ministry Watch rates International Christian Concern, Equipping the Persecuted, and Persecution Project highest for financial efficiency, transparency, and donor confidence. Voice of the Martyrs is rated lowest.   Equipping the Persecuted focuses on Nigeria, and Persecution Project has been actively serving the persecuted saints in Sudan, Africa. Folks, think about giving to the poor and the suffering this Christmas season. Proverbs 28:27 says, “He who gives to the poor will not lack, but he who hides his eyes will have many curses.” U.S. government ran a $1.8 trillion deficit The financial numbers are in for the U.S. government's fiscal year 2025, ending in October. The government ran a deficit of $1.8 trillion for the year. That's down $41 billion or 2% compared to the previous year.  However, revenues increased by $317 billion due to higher tariffs on imported goods. Spending was up a whopping 4% or $275 billion, driven by welfare and benefit programs, as well as rising interest payments on the public debt. Trump to pick new Federal Reserve Chairman U.S. President Donald Trump will soon announce his next pick for chairman of the Federal Reserve. The new pick is slated to replace Jerome Powell in May of next year. Gold hits $4,230/ounce and silver hits $58/ounce Metals are still on the rise again. Gold hit $4,230 per ounce and silver topped $58.00 per ounce. Bitcoin is still down 31% over two months ago. FDA admits COVID-19 shots killed U.S. kids The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has acknowledged, for the first time, that COVID-19 vaccines have killed American children. According to Politico, Vinay Prasad, the vaccine chief for the FDA, issued a memo in which he revealed that FDA staff “found … at least 10 children have died after and because of receiving COVID-19 vaccination.” This comes from an “initial analysis of 96 deaths (associated with the vaccine taking place) between 2021 and 2024.” TN Democrat opposes Christian prayer in public forum And finally, the Christian faith appears to be at stake -- in a tight election in Tennessee for the 7th District Congressional seat. The Democrat candidate Aftyn Behn has gone on record stating she is opposed to Christian prayer in the public forum.   President Donald Trump took to Truth Social yesterday. He warned that Behn “hates Christianity, will take away your guns, wants Open Borders. . . men in women's sports, and openly disdains Country music.” The latest polls show the Republican candidate, Van Epps, is holding a slight lead in today's election.

Pandemics aren’t only about pathogens, they’re about people, politics, and the deep inequities in our health systems. In this episode of The Health Advocates, Steven Newmark speaks with Dr. Tyler Evans, an infectious disease and public health leader whose career has spanned the front lines of global outbreaks from Ebola to COVID-19. As the former Chief Medical Officer for New York City and co-founder of the Wellness and Equity Alliance, Dr. Evans brings firsthand insight into how societal structures can shape, and sometimes worsen, the course of a public health crisis. The conversation dives into key themes from Dr. Evans’ new book, Pandemics, Poverty, and Politics (Johns Hopkins Press, August 2025), which examines how inequality, poverty, and fractured health systems accelerate the spread of disease. Dr. Evans explains why scientific breakthroughs alone aren’t enough, we must also tackle the injustices that leave vulnerable communities at greatest risk. From vaccine mandates to climate change’s role in infectious disease, from disinformation to the erosion of public trust, this episode offers both a sobering reality check and a call to action. Whether you’re a healthcare professional, policymaker, or concerned citizen, you’ll come away with a deeper understanding of why true pandemic preparedness starts with equity.To learn more about Dr. Tyler Evans’ book, Pandemics, Poverty, and Politics, click here.

What happens when life-and-death decision-making meets the boardroom? Today our guest is Dr. Geoffrey Mount Varner—a physician, author of "FAST DECISIONS: Think Fast. Be Bold. Be Fearless", and leadership expert—shares how his experience in emergency medicine led him to develop a powerful framework for decision-making under pressure. As the former head of Washington D.C.'s emergency Ebola response, Dr. Varner learned that hesitation can be deadly. Today, he brings that same clarity and urgency to the world of business leadership. Dr. Varner explains how most leaders waste valuable "decision energy" by treating every choice as equally important. His approach teaches executives to quickly identify which decisions deserve deep thought and which can be made in seconds. At the core of his DPD framework—Deep Breath, Pause, Decide—is a deceptively simple but scientifically grounded process that empowers leaders to quiet emotion, activate intuition, and make confident, timely decisions. He and Peter Winick dive into how the corporate world often rewards inaction—where delayed or avoided decisions are seen as safe career moves. Dr. Varner argues that indecision is, in fact, a decision—and one that can cripple organizations. He offers practical, repeatable ways for leaders to break through analysis paralysis, train their teams for agility, and create a culture of accountability and speed. Finally, Dr. Varner reflects on his own transition from medicine to thought leadership—transforming his crisis-tested experience into a business-ready system. Through books, speaking engagements, and workshops, he's building a new generation of leaders who make better choices, faster. Because in both medicine and business, the ability to decide well can be the difference between success and failure. Three Key Takeaways: • Decisiveness Is a Trainable Skill. Great leaders aren't born decisive—they're trained. Dr. Varner's DPD framework (Deep Breath, Pause, Decide) helps leaders manage emotion, engage intuition, and act with confidence under pressure. • Not All Decisions Deserve Equal Attention. Leaders often waste energy treating minor choices like major ones. Dr. Varner categorizes decisions by consequence—low, medium, and high—so leaders can spend their time where it matters most. • Indecision Is Still a Decision. In business as in medicine, delayed action carries risks. Dr. Varner reminds leaders that avoiding decisions is itself a choice—one that can stall progress, weaken accountability, and erode trust. If you found value in this episode's focus on making faster, smarter decisions under pressure, you'll want to check out "Making Better Decisions Through Thought Leadership" with Thomas Lahnthaler. In that conversation, Thomas explores how the strategic use of thought leadership isn't just about ideas—it's about preparing teams for inevitable crisis-points, creating choices rather than waiting for them, and harnessing collective insight when the pressure's on. Listen to both episodes back-to-back to unlock how frameworks + mindset + action combine to turn uncertainty into advantage and hesitation into leadership momentum.

In episode 135 of Nonprofit Mission: Impact, Carol Hamilton talks with organizational design consultant Julian Chender about how nonprofits can move beyond simple restructuring to intentional organizational design that aligns strategy, structure, and process.  They discuss: how organizational design is not the same as restructuring how design choices impact effectiveness, collaboration, and long-term sustainability.  the pitfalls of designing around personalities,  the importance of strategic clarity when facing downsizing or merger decisions.  The conversation offers nonprofit leaders practical insights into building organizations that are resilient, adaptable, and positioned for impact.   Episode highlights: The Why Behind the Work -  [00:08:08]  Defining Organizational Design - [00:13:53]  Structure, Silos, and Collaboration - [00:14:41]  Common Mistakes in Nonprofit Design -  [00:18:23]  Balancing Human-Centered Values and Strategy -  [00:20:40]  Downsizing by Design - [00:24:36]  Participation and Ownership - [00:23:32]  Benchmarking vs. Mass Customization -  [00:30:01]  Strategic Plans Require Organizational Design - [00:37:40] Mergers and Strategic Alliances -  [00:41:21]  Examples of Successful Mergers -  [00:44:16]  The Key Question for Leaders - [00:47:57]    Guest Bio: Julian Chender is the founder of 11A Collaborative, an organization design firm focused on creating healthy society through healthy organizations. In his early years, Julian was an internal consultant at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) under Tony Fauci during the agency's response to the global Ebola and Zika crises.

Lessons from Rwanda's Marburg Virus Outbreak and Building Resilient Systems in Global EM. Hosts: Tsion Firew, MD Brian Gilberti, MD https://media.blubrry.com/coreem/content.blubrry.com/coreem/Marburg_Virus.mp3 Download Leave a Comment Tags: Global Health, Infectious Diseases Show Notes Context and the Rwanda Marburg Experience The Threat: Marburg Virus Disease is from the same family as Ebola and has historically had a reported fatality rate as high as 90%. The Outbreak (Sept. 2024): Rwanda declared an MVD outbreak. The initial cases involved a miner, his pregnant wife (who fell ill and died after having a baby), and the baby (who also died). Healthcare Worker Impact: The wife was treated at an epicenter hospital. Eight HCWs were exposed to a nurse who was coding in the ICU; all eight developed symptoms, tested positive within a week, and four of them died. The Turning Point: The outbreak happened in city referral hospitals where advanced medical interventions (dialysis, mechanical ventilation) were available. Rapid Therapeutics Access: Within 10 days of identifying Marburg, novel therapies (experimental drugs and monoclonal antibodies) and an experimental vaccine were made available through diplomacy with the US government/CDC and agencies like WHO, Africa CDC, CEPI and more. The Outcome: This coordinated effort—combini...

In February, the Trump administration announced cuts to more than 90% of USAID’s foreign aid contracts and $60 billion in overall assistance around the world. In July, the agency’s remaining programs were brought under the control of the State Department. Thousands of USAID staff and contractors working in the US and around the world have been fired or laid off, including Portlander Leah Petit. A global health professional for nearly 20 years, Petit was a senior program advisor at USAID’s Office of HIV/AIDS when she lost her job in late January. Her projects focused on strengthening local health systems in Africa and Asia to sustain long-term HIV prevention, monitoring and treatment efforts.    In August, Petit embarked on a new career when she launched “Global Development Interrupted,” a podcast she hosts and produces featuring former USAID workers who help dispel misconceptions about the agency’s work overseas and how it has benefited Americans here. Established nearly 65 years ago, USAID has delivered lifesaving humanitarian assistance and medicines, mobilized to halt the spread of deadly diseases like Ebola, expanded access to clean drinking water and sanitation, along with countless other relief and development programs. Petit joins us to share more details about her podcast and what’s at stake when the US reverses its leadership on international aid, including the millions of lives that are expected to be lost with the dismantling of USAID.
