The CDC characterized the 2025-2026 influenza season as moderate overall, but the burden in the United States was substantial, with suboptimal seasonal influenza vaccine uptake among adults and children. It is important to communicate to patients that the clinical benefits of the influenza vaccine extend beyond prevention of disease and mortality, particularly for the most vulnerable populations. In anticipation of the upcoming influenza season, stream this podcast, featuring audio from a live webinar led by experts Paul G. Auwaerter, MD, MBA, and Ravi Jhaveri, MD, FIDSA, FPIDS, FAAP, to increase your competence in optimizing influenza vaccine uptake in pediatric and adult patients.For more, and to download the accompanying slides, visit our program page.Topics covered include:Flu Vaccines for the 2026-2027 SeasonA Preview of the 2026-2027 Season From the Southern HemisphereStrategies for Influenza Vaccine SelectionIntegrating New Developments Into PracticeGet access to all of our new podcasts by subscribing to the Decera Clinical Education Infectious Disease Podcast on Apple Podcasts, YouTube Music, or Spotify.Presenters:Paul G.

During an extraordinary career, Dr. Anthony Fauci led the federal response to HIV-AIDS, SARS, H1N1, Ebola, and Zika. He always advocated funding for pandemic preparedness, vaccine development, immunology and pathogen research. Then came COVID-19, which, unlike outbreaks past, was trapped in a politicized online disinformation and conspiracy-mongering stew. As he was pushing 80, Fauci rode the dragon of a novel coronavirus pandemic that was leaving piles of bodies in Italy, India, and New York. He served as the interface between scientists, government, and the public, all while learning about the virus in real-time. Like any good public health communicator, he sought to save lives using the best available knowledge. Like any good scientist, he kept an open mind about what was not yet known. But the pandemic-grievance industry made him the face of a conspiracy theory. Did he cause a catastrophically deadly pandemic, decimate American freedoms, or ruin the economy over a largely harmless flu? Today we discuss the release of his “diaries” and tune into last week's Senate hearings, where crackpots bullied, berated, and slandered the 85-year old public servant.

As a society, and as an industrial complex, we've made health complicated…and expensive. But, epidemiology suggests that what we need to do to achieve and maintain personal health is really quite simple. Dr. Tom Frieden returns to the show to talk about the second half of his book, The Formula for Your Health. Through extensive research and review of hundreds of epidemiological studies, he distills the findings down to six basic things we need to be doing in order to be healthy. Dr. Frieden acknowledges that there is nuance, but he also affirms that history is clear. There are other societies in the world that were and are far healthier than the US population, and NOT because they had wearables, packaged food, home massagers, or Pelotons. Dr. Frieden is author of the book, The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own. He is also the founder and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives, a global health organization that accelerates action against the world’s deadliest health threats. Resolve to Save Lives has worked with governments and other partners in more than 60 countries to save millions of lives. Dr. Frieden previously served as director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and New York City Health Commissioner, where he led efforts that increased life expectancy by 3 years and helped end major health crises including the largest US outbreak of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, the 2014 West Africa Ebola epidemic, and responses to H1N1, Zika, and other threats.
What should the public know about the H1N1 influenza virus, and how can people separate evidence-based information from misinformation during a public health event? In this informative episode of The ‘X' Zone, Rob McConnell welcomes physician, author, and healthcare advocate Len Saputo to discuss The Truth Behind H1N1. Dr. Saputo examines the H1N1 influenza pandemic from a medical and public health perspective, discussing how influenza viruses spread, the challenges of responding to emerging infectious diseases, and the importance of reliable scientific information. He also shares his views on healthcare policy, prevention strategies, patient education, and the need for informed decision-making during times of public concern. Throughout the conversation, Rob and Dr. Saputo explore topics including risk communication, vaccination, public health preparedness, and the evolving nature of medical knowledge. Listeners are encouraged to evaluate health information critically, consult qualified healthcare professionals, and understand that medical recommendations may change as new evidence becomes available. Whether you're interested in infectious diseases, public health, preventive medicine, or the history of the H1N1 pandemic, this episode offers a thoughtful discussion about one of the most significant health events of the early 21st century.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

In this episode of NOON we have Sarah Vance.Sarah is an ICU nurse, critical care educator, and fierce patient advocate. She shares how staying at the bedside keeps her grounded, sharp, and connected to the real challenges nurses face every shift.We talk about going from almost becoming a Spanish teacher to stepping into the ICU during H1N1 and later COVID-19, the emotional weight of those years, and why confidence in nursing only comes from stepping into hard things. Sarah opens up about advocating for patients when it wasn't popular, protecting her license, and why education should open doors, not close them.Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/1vAokfqG5aifoRBKk9MAUh?si=T8DipSBCQzWfOeiBW3h-VwFB Page: https://m.facebook.com/groups/nineoneonenonsense/?ref=shareInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/911nonsense/X: https://twitter.com/911NonsenseBonfire Merch: https://www.bonfire.com/store/nine-one-one-nonsense/?utm_source=copy_link&utm_medium=store_page_share&utm_campaign=nine-one-one-nonsense&utm_content=defaultContent Warning: This episode contains discussions about death, including graphic and potentially triggering details.

Nous sommes le 4 mars 1918, au camp militaire de Funston, dans l'Arkansas, l'un des états du sud des Etats-Unis. Dans la matinée, Albert Gitchell, le cuisinier, se rend à l'infirmerie : il souffre de fièvre, de maux de gorge et de tête. Quelques heures auparavant, le personnel médical avait déjà reçu une centaine de cas similaires Dans les semaines qui suivent, la progression est telle que l'on doit réquisitionner un hangar pour accueillir tous les malades. Albert Gitchell n'est peut-être pas le premier cas de grippe espagnole, mais il l'un des premiers officiellement enregistrés et, par convention, il est désormais admis qu'il marque le début d'une pandémie qui va toucher le monde entier : de l'Amérique du Nord à l'Iran, de l'Inde à la Russie et à la Chine en passant par le Brésil et l'Afrique du Sud et, bien sûr, par L'Europe. A l'échelle du globe, la grippe espagnole va provoquer la mort de 50 millions à 100 millions de personnes. Elle est, vraisemblablement, la plus grande pandémie que l'humanité ait jamais connue. Et pourtant, sa mémoire a longtemps été enfouie : pourquoi ? Quelles sont les origines et les causes de cette tragédie ? Quelles ont été ses conséquences sur le déroulement de la Première Guerre mondiale.

In this episode of Transmission Interrupted, host Jill Morgan interviews Dr. Laura Evans, the new executive director of the National Special Pathogen System (NSPS), about her path from critical care leadership at Bellevue to national special pathogen preparedness. Dr. Evans recounts how the 2009 H1N1 pandemic and the 2014 Ebola outbreak shaped her focus on protecting healthcare workers while delivering high-quality care, and she describes Bellevue's teamwork-driven responses, including Hurricane Sandy's power crisis and evacuation supported by a fuel “bucket brigade.” She outlines NSPS's goal of a tiered, trauma-like network built to be nimble and adaptable, discusses challenges such as sustaining hospital engagement, expanding Level 3 and 4 participation, and strengthening patient transport capacity, and frames upcoming mass gatherings like the World Cup as opportunities to advance preparedness nationwide.

After more than 600 media interviews in five years, Catherine Troisi learned a powerful truth: in public health, clarity beats credentials every time. In this compelling episode, Dr. Troisi returns to the podcast six years later to reflect on what it really means to communicate science in a politically charged world. From managing jail health programs and serving as Incident Commander during Hurricane Katrina and the H1N1 pandemic at the Houston Health Department, to navigating pandemic-era media scrutiny, she shares hard-earned lessons on translating complex epidemiology into language that resonates beyond academia. This conversation goes deeper than communication. It's about rebuilding public health at a time when systems feel fragile. It's about daily, strategic advocacy, including calling elected officials, writing consistently, and playing the long game. It's about finding hope in unexpected places, like the overwhelming public support she witnessed at the first-ever March for Public Health during the American Public Health Association conference. If you've ever wondered how to use your voice more effectively, how to advocate without burning out, or how to make your science matter in real communities, this episode will challenge and inspire you. Press play and discover why plain language may be your most powerful public health tool.

As a society, and as an industrial complex, we've made health complicated…and expensive. But, epidemiology suggests that what we need to do to achieve and maintain personal health is really quite simple. Dr. Tom Frieden returns to the show to talk about the second half of his book, The Formula for Your Health. Through extensive research and review of hundreds of epidemiological studies, he distills the findings down to six basic things we need to be doing in order to be healthy. Dr. Frieden acknowledges that there is nuance, but he also affirms that history is clear. There are other societies in the world that were and are far healthier than the US population, and NOT because they had wearables, packaged food, home massagers, or Pelotons. Dr. Frieden is author of the book, The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own. He is also the founder and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives, a global health organization that accelerates action against the world’s deadliest health threats. Resolve to Save Lives has worked with governments and other partners in more than 60 countries to save millions of lives. Dr. Frieden previously served as director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and New York City Health Commissioner, where he led efforts that increased life expectancy by 3 years and helped end major health crises including the largest US outbreak of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, the 2014 West Africa Ebola epidemic, and responses to H1N1, Zika, and other threats.

Josh Sigurdson reports on the mass fear mongering campaign by the media regarding the so-called "Super Flu" which like most years is "an illness no one has seen before." Every year, we find out about an illness and it seems everyone claims they've never been so sick before. The reality is, this is just the latest pandemic hoax based on fraudulent PCR tests. As the United States records its first child flu death of the year, the so-called "Super Flu" aptly named to terrify the public is one of the most talked about issues in the media currently. So what is it? Well, first of all, publications like The Daily Mail insist on writing step by step guides to help you "tell the difference" between the Super Flu and Covid. The irony of this is that a PCR test will come up positive for pretty much anything and in 2020, doctors would blindly say "it must be positive for Covid." Now, if a doctor gives someone a PCR test, they will blindly say "it must be positive for the Super Flu." Realistically, that's how you tell the difference. No actual science is involved. There is no doubt that people's immune systems are shot these days. This is due to many contributing factors such as fluoridated tap water, processed foods, industrial chemicals in the air, heavy metals falling from the sky and obviously mass vaccination which according to countless studies shows a direct correlation with autoimmune function. Are people getting more sick these days? Yes. Is it due to some scary pandemic? No. It's due to people being more unhealthy. Meanwhile we are simultaneously seeing fear mongering in the media over Measles and Bird Flu. In fact, multiple types of Bird Flu are being pushed for maximum fear as countless chickens and cows are culled. H1N1, H5N9 and H2N9. It's convenient that the largest ever pandemic exercise just happened in the fall, named Project Polaris. In France, there is a mass culling of cows as the army is called in to mass inject cattle under the guise of stopping "Lumpy Skin Disease." This has lead to thousands of farmers protesting. If people don't yet read between the lines, they will be fodder in the next global pandemic scam. Stay tuned for more from WAM! BUY TICKETS HERE! https://anarchapulco.com/ Use Code WAM & Save 10%!

China's influenza activity has rapidly increased in recent weeks but remains within the expected winter range, with no novel or unknown variants being detected, health authorities said recently.卫生部门近日表示,中国流感活动水平近几周迅速上升,但仍处于冬季预期范围内,未检测到新型或未知变异株。Latest data from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention shows that flu levels are increasing in both northern and southern regions. This surge led to 955 reported infection clusters in the week beginning Nov 10.中国疾病预防控制中心最新数据显示,流感疫情在南北地区均呈上升趋势。11月10日当周,全国共报告955起流感聚集性病例。The H3N2 subtype of influenza A is currently dominant, accounting for over 99 percent of samples from flu-like cases, with the remainder being the H1N1 subtype of influenza A and the influenza B strain.甲型流感H3N2亚型目前占主导地位,占流感样病例样本的99%以上,其余为甲型流感H1N1亚型和乙型流感病毒株。"The nation has entered a period of rapidly increasing flu cases, with the majority of regions seeing a medium to high level of virus circulation," said Peng Zhibin, a researcher at the China CDC, at a news conference on Friday.中国疾控中心研究员彭质斌周五在新闻发布会上表示:"全国流感病例正进入快速增长期,多数地区病毒传播处于中度至高度水平。"Peng also noted a significant rise in outbreaks at schools and nurseries, with the flu positivity rate among children and adolescents aged 5 to 14 markedly higher than in other age groups.彭质斌还指出,学校和托儿所的疫情爆发显著增加,5至14岁儿童和青少年的流感阳性率明显高于其他年龄段。Last winter's flu season was primarily driven by the H1N1 strain, while the current dominant strain is the H3N2 strain.去年冬季的流感季节主要由H1N1病毒株驱动,而当前占主导地位的病毒株则是H3N2病毒株。A specific H3N2 subclade, known as K, has also driven up infections in parts of the northern hemisphere, including the United Kingdom, Canada and Japan, fueling concerns that this signals a faster evolving or more severe virus.一种名为K的特定H3N2亚系病毒也在北半球部分地区(包括英国、加拿大和日本)引发感染激增,这引发了人们对该病毒可能具有更快的进化速度或更强的致病性的担忧。In response, Peng said that the flu virus is prone to minor mutations. The current flu activity still remains at the normal, seasonal epidemic level and does not indicate that the virus is becoming increasingly fierce.对此,彭质斌回应表示流感病毒容易发生轻微变异。当前流感活动仍处于正常季节性流行水平,并不表明病毒正在变得越来越凶猛。"So far, all detected cases are common and known pathogens, with no unknown or newly emerging pathogens," she said.彭质斌表示:“迄今为止,所有检测到的病例均由常见且已知的病原体引起,未发现未知或新出现的病原体。”Wang Dayan, director of the Chinese National Influenza Center, said during an earlier news conference that the composition of each year's flu vaccine is updated to best match the strains expected to circulate, including this year's dose.中国国家流感中心主任王大燕在早前举行的新闻发布会上表示,每年流感疫苗的成分都会根据预计流行的毒株进行更新调整,今年的疫苗也不例外。"The matching level for the H3N2 virus has improved compared to previous years, while the matches for H1N1 and influenza B are even higher," she said. "Over 95 percent of circulating strains are antigenically similar to the vaccine strains."王大燕表示:“与往年相比,H3N2病毒的匹配水平有所提升,而H1N1和B型流感的匹配度更高,超过95%的流行毒株与疫苗毒株具有抗原相似性。”Experts said that the optimized period to get vaccinated is before the start of the flu season, so as to reduce the possibility of severe symptoms and prevent infection clusters.专家表示,接种疫苗的最佳时机是在流感季节开始之前,这样既能降低出现严重症状的可能性,又能防止感染聚集性病例的发生。However, Peng said that even individuals who have already been infected can benefit from the shot, as the trivalent vaccine contains all three circulating strains and can provide protection against those they have not contracted.不过彭质斌强调,即使已经感染过的人群也能从接种中获益,因为三价疫苗包含所有三种流行毒株,能够为未曾感染过的毒株提供保护。Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention中国疾控中心influenza A甲型流感trivalent vaccine三价疫苗

RE-RELEASE: This episode was originally released in February 2025.In this episode, Dr. Anthony Fauci joins A'ndre for an in-depth conversation about his decades-long career in public health and his experiences leading the U.S. response to some of the world's most pressing infectious disease challenges. Dr. Fauci reflects on his early work during the HIV/AIDS crisis, the evolution of treatments that saved millions of lives, and his role in launching PEPFAR, one of the most significant global health initiatives in history. He discusses his leadership at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), navigating crises such as Ebola, Zika, H1N1, anthrax, and COVID-19, while working alongside multiple U.S. presidents to shape national and global health policies.Beyond his career in government, Dr. Fauci shares his thoughts on the intersection of public health and national security, the growing challenges of vaccine skepticism and misinformation, and the vital role of institutions like the NIH and CDC in protecting public health. He also highlights the major health threats that remain overlooked in mainstream discourse. Now a professor at Georgetown University, Dr. Fauci reflects on his transition to academia and the importance of training the next generation of medical leaders in an era of evolving global health challenges.You can purchase his recent memoir, On Call, here.
The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. His career in law enforcement wasn't just about chasing criminals, it was about living on the edge of two worlds. He spent decades kicking in doors, infiltrating drug rings, and selling weapons to cartel figures under the guise of a hardened criminal. “I didn't just study crime,” Paul Milone says. “I lived in it, walked in it, and came out the other side.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Paul Milone, retired Omaha Police Department is our guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most podcast platforms. From the gang unit to narcotics, and later sixteen years on one of the busiest SWAT teams in the Midwest, Milone became known as Ram One, the man tasked with breaching doors in high-stakes operations. He estimates he has broken down more than a thousand doors over the span of his career. “The adrenaline, the danger, it all became part of me,” he reflects. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . But his career wasn't only shaped by the criminals he pursued. It was the deaths of fellow officers and friends that changed him most deeply, both as a cop and as a human being. The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. Milone recalls the loss of Officer Gregory Hamill, who contracted the H1N1 flu virus during a narcotics search in January 2014. Hamill's health deteriorated rapidly, and he died in February 2015 from complications. “Greg was one of us,” Milone shares. “We go into these homes thinking about the guns, the violence, the suspects. But sometimes, it's something you can't see that ends up taking your brother.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. He also carries the memory of Sergeant Jason “Tye” Pratt, who was shot in the head while helping search for a fleeing suspect in Omaha. Pratt died after a week in a coma. “Tye's death hit me hard,” Milone admits. “You train, you prepare, you do everything right, and still—violence in America claims another officer. These are the moments that never leave you.” Violence in America and the Numbers Behind It Milone's personal losses echo a troubling national trend. According to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund's 2024 Fatalities Report, officer deaths in the line of duty rose by 25% from the previous year. In 2024 alone, 147 officers across the United States died while serving. Gunfire was the leading cause, claiming 52 officers' lives. Traffic-related deaths also spiked 48% from the previous year, with a particularly alarming rise in officers being struck by vehicles. The data paints a stark picture: law enforcement professionals are facing escalating dangers in every facet of their work. The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “These numbers aren't just statistics,” Milone explains. “They're friends, they're fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters. For me, they're Greg. They're Tye. They're the guys you rode with yesterday who aren't coming back tomorrow.” From Omaha to the National Conversation The Omaha Police Department (OPD), Nebraska's largest law enforcement agency, has seen its share of tragedy and sacrifice. With more than 900 sworn officers protecting nearly half a million residents, Omaha represents the frontline reality of American policing. Milone, who spent much of his career with OPD, believes these stories must be told beyond the police world. “If the public doesn't understand the risks we face, then the deaths of these officers get buried in the news cycle,” he says. “We can't let that happen.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. A Story Told Through Social Media and Podcasts Today, Milone shares his experiences through social media platforms like The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast's Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, connecting with audiences who may never have walked in a cop's boots. His story has also been featured across news outlets, podcasts on Apple and Spotify, and he often speaks about his journey in interviews. The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. He has even turned his reflections into a book, detailing the gritty reality of undercover work and the personal toll of losing colleagues to violence. “The book is not just about me,” Milone emphasizes. “It's about the men and women who didn't get to write theirs.” Why These Stories Matter Milone's life is a raw testimony to the cost of public safety in America. From hostage rescues and riots to the quieter, more haunting losses of fellow officers, his journey speaks to the reality behind the badge. “The public often sees the uniform, the badge, the authority,” Milone says. “What they don't see are the funerals. What they don't see are the empty seats at family dinners. What they don't see is how the deaths of police shape those of us who survive.” The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Carrying the Legacy Forward For Milone, sharing his story isn't about reliving the past, it's about ensuring those who paid the ultimate price are remembered. By speaking through social media, podcasts, and his book, he hopes to keep their names alive in a world where tragedy often gets overshadowed by the next headline. “I want people to know Greg Hamill. I want them to know Tye Pratt. Because their stories are America's story,” he says. “The violence in America isn't just something you read about. It's something we lived, and some of us didn't survive. That's the truth.” The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America.
INTRO:I'm finally back after my NDE from a month-long bout with H1N1 earlier this year. I'm Hank Davis, a nineteen year podcasting veteran, filmmaker, and soon to be musician (more on that in the coming weeks) and this is my review of Marvel's Fantastic Four.This is a spoiler-filled review of the movie and if you are overly sensitive to satire (that may or may not be funny) this won't be the podcast for you. SETTINGS:When it comes to the sets and immersion I feel that Fantastic Four shines. This is the first Marvel movie in recent years (that I've watched anyway) that has areas which actually feel populated and expansive. Maybe there are simply more people on Earth-828. We'd need to see the census data compared to Earth-616 but I digress.The retro design of the areas, vehicles, building interiors, clothing, and household items gave me a Jetsons meets Flash Gordon vibe. I thought they nailed costumes which are darn near impeccable. The aesthetics coalesce to create a believable world that simply hasn't been present in a Marvel film in quite some time. But a world is only as good as the characters you put in it.CHARACTERS:Vanessa Kirby's Sue Storm is believable, balanced, and didn't overpower the movie like Marvel tends to do female leads.Ben Grimm's portrayal is about as spot on as there's been in any incarnation of the character.While not my favorite, Joseph Quinn's Johnny Storm is likeable but not as punchy as the Chris Evans version. Thankfully, we didn't get the awkward “how are they related” gymnastics like the 2015 version. Outside of the writing Ralph Ineson does a solid job of bringing Galactus to life on the big screen.My sister's 8th grade sports trophy springs to life as Julia Garner attempts to give us a different take on Silver Surfer. While there's nothing like the original, Shalla-Bal didn't negatively impact the movie (outside of those initial concept renderings). Ultimately she portrayed a conflicted character that was believable. I laughed out loud when Stingray from Cobra Kai rolled in as the Mole Man. I guess Cobra Kai truly never dies! It's just been driven underground.Which unfortunately leads me to Reed Richards himself portrayed by Pedro Pascal. Pedro Pascal is as much Mister Fantastic as I'm Denzel Washington. I needed to see another Pedro lead like a golf club to the head (SFX). If you know, you know. He delivers amazing lines like "I don't know." and others that make you second guess the idea that he's the smartest man alive. I am suffering from Pedro fatigue!HITS:I'll say it again, the costumes were excellent! Even though I couldn't help but itch myself uncomfortably while looking at that material, the suits were incredible.The Thing was done justice in this movie! I thought about how cool playing a video game would be as he smashed through the columns of that building. Can we get The Thing vs The Hulk please? That's one of my favorite comic book childhood matchups.I liked the blending of high and low tech items. Seeing physical records made me nostalgic but didn't take away from the sophisticated feel the film delivers.The message of world-wide unity in the face of extreme turmoil was a refreshing insertion that didn't feel like a ‘nine iron to the head' political lecture.Who doesn't love a superpowered baby? Although I wished they would have fleshed that out more in this particular movie instead of hoping I watch what's next. A cute baby trumps an obnoxious dog any day of the week.

What if your Google searches could predict disease outbreaks before traditional surveillance methods? That's exactly what happened during the 2009 H1N1 pandemic when researchers discovered online search patterns matched CDC data – but delivered results much faster.Welcome to the fascinating world of infodemiology, where digital footprints become powerful tools for public health. In this eye-opening conversation with experts Dr. Heather Duncan and Dr. Patrick Murphy, we explore how researchers analyze everything from tweets to search queries to understand health trends, track disease spread, and even identify mental health risks.The implications are both promising and concerning. While infodemiology offers unprecedented speed and insights for public health response, it raises critical questions about privacy, ethics, and the responsibility that comes with identifying health risks online. If AI flags someone as potentially suicidal based on their social media activity, what obligations exist to connect them with resources?Perhaps most shocking is the revelation that just 12 individuals were responsible for 60% of the anti-vaccine content circulating on certain platforms. This precision mapping of information flow demonstrates infodemiology's potential to target interventions effectively.As social media increasingly becomes Americans' primary source of health information, understanding these digital dynamics becomes crucial for public health. Dr. Duncan shares her vision of creating accessible, automated tools that would allow even small health departments to harness these powerful insights without extensive resources.Subscribe to Infectious Science for more fascinating conversations at the intersection of technology and public health, and share your thoughts on how digital surveillance might shape the future of healthcare.Thanks for listening to the Infectious Science Podcast.

Vidcast: https://www.instagram.com/drhowardsmithreports/reel/DHWnueHvHxv/The World Health Organization and the UK's Francis Crick Institute sponsored an international meeting of influenza virologists to select those strains of the flu virus to be included in the 2025-2026 Influenza vaccines. This vital conclave, usually held in the US on an annual basis, was just canceled by the our current government.The 3 strains selected for next season's vaccines include two influenza A strains and one influenza B strain. As in the past, the WHO continues to recommend a trivalent vaccine. They are for egg-based vaccines: A/Victoria/4897/2022 (H1N1); A/Croatia/10136RV/2023 (H3N2; and B/Austria/1359417/2021 (B/Victoria lineage). For cell culture-, recombinant protein- or nucleic acid-based vaccines they are: A/Wisconsin/67/2022 (H1N1); A/District of Columbia/27/2023 (H3N2); and B/Austria/1359417/2021 (B/Victoria lineage). For those vaccine with 4 strains, so-called quadrivalent, the B/Phuket/3073/2013 (B/Yamagata lineage) is added.Because of this timely European meeting, vaccine production for next year can begin immediately in order to permit availability in 6 months time even here in the United States. In the fall of 2025, we should all be revaccinated with these latest flu strains but also with the latest CoVid boosters for optimal protection next winter. If you haven't had an RSV vax yet, get that too. We should also be thankful that we have a WHO virology group to complete the job abandoned by our own government. https://www.crick.ac.uk/news/2025-03-03_scientists-decide-makeup-of-this-years-flu-vaccinehttps://www.crick.ac.uk/sites/default/files/2025-03/WHOCC_London_Seasonal_VCM_NH2024-25.pdf#influenza #vaccine #20252026 #trivalent #quadrivalent #who
In this episode, Dr. Anthony Fauci joins A'ndre for an in-depth conversation about his decades-long career in public health and his experiences leading the U.S. response to some of the world's most pressing infectious disease challenges. Dr. Fauci reflects on his early work during the HIV/AIDS crisis, the evolution of treatments that saved millions of lives, and his role in launching PEPFAR, one of the most significant global health initiatives in history. He discusses his leadership at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), navigating crises such as Ebola, Zika, H1N1, anthrax, and COVID-19, while working alongside multiple U.S. presidents to shape national and global health policies.Beyond his career in government, Dr. Fauci shares his thoughts on the intersection of public health and national security, the growing challenges of vaccine skepticism and misinformation, and the vital role of institutions like the NIH and CDC in protecting public health. He also highlights the major health threats that remain overlooked in mainstream discourse. Now a professor at Georgetown University, Dr. Fauci reflects on his transition to academia and the importance of training the next generation of medical leaders in an era of evolving global health challenges.You can purchase his recent memoir, On Call, here.
We speak with Emeka Iloegbu, a DrPH student and global health leader with over 15 years of experience in tackling infectious diseases and strengthening health systems. From his early days volunteering with the Red Cross in New York City to playing critical roles in pandemic responses for H1N1, Zika, Ebola, COVID-19, and monkeypox, Emeka has worked at the intersection of laboratory science, public health, and policy. As an assistant professor at CUNY and a United Nations representative, he is engaged in HIV research, antimicrobial resistance, and the integration of molecular diagnostics into public health strategies. He discusses his transition from analyzing cells under a microscope at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital to influencing policy decisions at the UN and Department of Health, emphasizing the importance of adaptive leadership, community-based surveillance, and strengthening global health infrastructure. We also dive into his research in implementation science, his role in advancing sickle cell disease interventions, and how he is using his vast experience to bridge the gap between scientific discovery and real-world impact.

Father Nigel Mumford has had 2 most unusual and profound NDEs! The first happened while serving in the Royal Marines as a Green Beret. During a scuba diving outing he was saved from drowning, but not before seeing a tunnel, traveling, then seeing a slideshow of his life. In addition to a life review during his near death experience, Nigel saw many other 'good' things, nothing bad. He felt no guilt. Nigel's second NDE happened years later when he contracted swine flu or H1N1 virus. He fell deathly ill, couldn't breath, spent 3 weeks in a coma and 3 months in the ICU. While unconscious, he had a near death experience in which he literally felt his spirit leave his body and go out through the ceiling of the hospital. He saw a blade of grass, granite steps, 3 white tulips, mansions, and even his house which was made of glass. Ultimately, he saw Jesus on the cross. This NDE episode dives into spiritual insights and asks a barrage of questions. _______________ Video versions of this podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@roundtripdeathRoundTripDeath.comhttps://www.fathernigel.com/Donate to this podcast @ https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/

The Flu Vaccine: Science at its Worst Richard Gale and Gary Null Progressive Radio Network, December 20, 2024 Joshua Hadfield was a normal, healthy developing child as a toddler. In the midst of the H1N1 swine flu frenzy and the media fear mongering about the horrible consequences children face if left unvaccinated, the Hadfield family had Joshua vaccinated with Glaxo's Pandermrix influenza vaccine. Within weeks, Joshua could barely wake up, sleeping up to nineteen hours a day. Laughter would trigger seizures. Joshua was diagnosed with narcolepsy, “an incurable, debilitating condition” associated with acute brain damage.[1] Looking back, Pandermrix was a horrible vaccine. Research indicates that it was associated with a 1400% increase in narcolepsy risk. A medical team at Finland's National Institute for Health and Welfare recorded 800 cases of narcolepsy associated with this vaccine. Aside from the engineered viral antigens, the other vaccine ingredients are most often found to be the primary culprits to adverse vaccine reactions. The Finnish research, on the other hand, indicated that the vaccine's altered viral nucleotide likely contributed to the sudden rise in sleeping sickness.[2] Although Pandermrix was pulled from the market for its association with narcolepsy and cataplexy (sudden muscle weakness), particularly in children, it should never have been approved and released in the first place. The regulatory fast tracking of the HINI flu vaccines is a classic, and now common, example of regulatory negligence by nations' health officials. The failure of proper regulatory evaluation and oversight resulted in Joshua and over 1,000 other people becoming disabled for life. Settlements to cover lawsuits exceeded 63 million pounds in the UK alone. No one should feel complacent and assume flu vaccine risks only affect young children. Sarah Behie was 20 years old after receiving a flu shot. Three weeks later her health deteriorated dramatically. Diagnosed with Guillain-Barre syndrome, a not uncommon adverse effect of influenza vaccination, four years later Sarah remains paralyzed from the waist down, incapable of dressing and feeding herself, and rotting away in hospitals and nursing homes.[3] Flu vaccines are perhaps the most ineffective vaccine on the market. Repeatedly we are told by health officials that the moral argument for its continued use is for “the greater good,” although this imaginary good has never been defined scientifically. Year to year, how effective any given seasonal flu vaccine will be is a throw of the dice. Annual flu vaccine efficacy rates in the US have demonstrated significant variability. Data from the CDC reveal efficacy estimates of approximately 39% for the 2020–2021 season, 37% for 2021–2022, 52% for 2022–2023, and a preliminary estimate of 50% for the 2023–2024 season. Preliminary CDC estimates for this flu season estimates 34% likely efficacy. Although these are CDC's figures, independent figures are consistently much lower. At their best, flu vaccines in recent years are around 50% effective according to official health analysis. During some seasons, vaccine efficacy is a bust. For example, the 2014-2015 flu season strain match was such a failure that the CDC warned the American public that the vaccine was only 23% effective.[4] Nevertheless, these rates underscore the vaccine's inconsistent protection. Studies such as those by Skowronski and Belongia further highlight flu vaccines' variability and force to question whether the vaccine is capable of providing any reliable protection.[5,6] Moreover, Cochrane Collaboration reviews, known for their rigorous analyses, consistently find that flu vaccines reduce influenza-like illness by only about 1% in healthy adults and have negligible impact on hospitalizations and mortality rates. This limited efficacy raises critical concerns about the vaccine's utility, particularly when weighed against its risks. Perhaps the most useless flu vaccine that should have never been approved was Medimmune's live attenuated flu vaccine (LAIV) FluMist, which the CDC later had removed from the market because it was found to so ineffective—only 3 percent according to an NBC report.[6] However the real reason may be more dire, and this a fundamental problem of all live and attenuated vaccines: these vaccines have been shown to “shed” and infect people in contact with the vaccinated persons, especially those with compromised immune systems. Consequently, both the unvaccinated and the vaccinated are at risk. The CDC acknowledges this risk and warns “Persons who care for severely immunosuppressed persons who require a protective environment should not receive LAIV, or should avoid contact with such persons for 7 days after receipt, given the theoretical risk for transmission of the live attenuated vaccine virus.”[7] According to the FDA's literature on FluMist, the vaccine was not studied for immunocompromised individuals (yet was still administered to them), and has been associated with acute allergic reactions, asthma, Guillain-Barre, and a high rate of hospitalizations among children under 24 months – largely due to upper respiratory tract infections. Other adverse effects include pericarditis, congenital and genetic disorders, mitochondrial encephalomyopathy or Leigh Syndrome, meningitis, and others.[8] The development and promotion of the influenza vaccine was never completely about protecting the public. It has been the least popular vaccine in the US, including among healthcare workers. Rather, similar to the mumps vaccine in the MMR, it has been the cash cow for vaccine makers. Determining the actual severity of any given flu season is burdened by federal intentional confusion to mislead the public. The CDC's first line of propaganda defense to enforce flu vaccinations is to exaggerate flu infections as the cause of preventable deaths. However, validating this claim is near impossible because the CDC does not differentiate deaths caused by influenza infection and deaths due to pneumonia. On its website, the CDC lumps flu and pneumonia deaths together, currently estimated at 51,000 per year. The large majority of these were pneumonia deaths of elderly patients. Yet in any given year, only 3-18% of suspected influenza infections actually test positive for a Type A or B influenza strain.[9] As an aside, it is worth noting that during the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic, an extraordinary and unprecedented phenomenon occurred: influenza infections, which have long been a seasonal health challenge, seemingly disappeared. Federal health agencies such as the CDC attributed this sharp decline in flu cases to the implementation of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) like mask-wearing, social distancing, and widespread lockdowns. However, this explanation raises critical questions about its plausibility. If these measures were effective enough to virtually eliminate influenza, why did they not similarly prevent the widespread transmission of SARS-CoV-2? This contradiction highlights the need to critically examine the possible explanations behind the anomaly, questioning whether the disappearance of the flu was truly a result of public health measures or due to other factors such as diagnostic practices, viral interference, and disruptions to seasonal flu patterns. If these interventions were indeed effective, their impact should not have been so starkly selective between two similarly transmitted viruses. This contradiction undermines the plausibility of attributing the disappearance of flu cases solely to NPIs. A more plausible explanation for the disappearance of flu cases lies in the diagnostic focus on SARS-CoV-2 during the pandemic. Individuals presenting with flu-like symptoms were overwhelmingly diagnosed for COVID-19 with faulty PCR testing methods rather than influenza, as public health resources were directed toward managing the pandemic. This prioritization inevitably led to a significant underreporting of flu cases. Furthermore, the symptoms of influenza and COVID-19 overlap significantly, including fever, cough, and fatigue. In the absence of influenza testing, many flu cases were wrongly diagnosed as COVID-19, further inflating SARS-CoV-2 case numbers while contributing to the perceived disappearance of the flu. One of the more controversial findings in recent flu vaccine research involves the phenomenon of viral interference, wherein vaccinated individuals may become more susceptible to other respiratory pathogens. To date there is only one gold standard clinical trial with the flu vaccine that compares vaccinated vs. unvaccinated, and it is not good news for the CDC, the vaccine makers, and the push to booster everyone with the Covid-19 mRNA vaccines. This Hong Kong funded double-blind placebo controlled study followed the health conditions of vaccinated and unvaccinated children between the ages of 6-15 years for 272 days. The trial concluded the flu vaccine holds no health benefits. In fact, those vaccinated with the flu virus were observed to have a 550% higher risk of contracting non-flu virus respiratory infections. Among the vaccinated children, there were 116 flu cases compared to 88 among the unvaccinated; there were 487 other non-influenza virus infections, including coronavirus, rhinovirus, coxsackie, and others, among the vaccinated versus 88 with the unvaccinated.[10] This single study alone poses a scientifically sound warning and rationale to avoid flu vaccines at all costs. It raises a further question: how many Covid-19 cases could be directly attributed to weakened immune systems because of prior flu vaccination? A 2019 study conducted by the US Armed Forces investigated the relationship between influenza vaccination and susceptibility to other respiratory infections, including coronaviruses. Analyzing data from over 9,000 individuals, the researchers found that people who received the flu vaccine were more likely to test positive for certain non-influenza respiratory viruses. Notably, influenza vaccination was associated with an increased likelihood of contracting coronaviruses and human metapneumovirus.[11] These findings suggest a complex interaction between influenza vaccination and susceptibility to different respiratory pathogens, and challenges the belief that flu vaccines provide greater benefits over risks. The same researchers' follow up study in in 2020 furthermore concluded that “vaccine derived virus interference was significantly associated with coronavirus and human metapneumovirus.[12] Additional recent studies, such as those by Bodewes, which identified immune interference due to repeated annual flu vaccinations,[13] and Shinjoh, which highlighted increased viral interference in vaccinated children, provide further evidence of this relationship.[14] These findings challenge the prevailing assumption that flu vaccination has only positive effects on immune health and raise important questions about the broader implications of repeated annual vaccination. In a follow up study after the H1N1 swine flu scare, Canadian researcher Dr. Danuta Skowronski noted that individuals with a history of receiving consecutive seasonal flu shots over several years had an increased risk of becoming infected with H1N1 swine flu. Skowronski commented on the findings, “policy makers have not yet had a chance to fully digest them [the study's conclusions] or understand the implications.” He continued, “Who knows, frankly? The wise man knows he knows nothing when it comes to influenza, so you always have to be cautious in speculating.”[15] There is strong evidence suggesting that all vaccine clinical trials carried out by manufacturers fall short of demonstrating vaccine efficacy accurately. And when they are shown to be efficacious, it is frequently in the short term and offer only partial or temporary protection. According to an article in the peer-reviewed Journal of Infectious Diseases, the only way to evaluate vaccines is to scrutinize the epidemiological data obtained from real-life conditions. In other words, researchers simply cannot -- or will not -- adequately test a vaccine's effectiveness and immunogenicity prior to its release onto an unsuspecting public.[16] According to Dr. Tom Jefferson, who formerly led the Cochrane Collaboration's vaccine analyses, it makes little sense to keep vaccinating against seasonal influenza based on the evidence.[17] Jefferson has also endorsed more cost-effective and scientifically-proven means of minimizing the transmission of flu, including regular hand washing and wearing masks. There is also substantial peer-reviewed literature supporting the supplementation of Vitamin D. Dr. Jefferson's conclusions are backed by former Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine scientist Peter Doshi, PhD, in the British Journal of Medicine. In his article Doshi questions the flu vaccine paradigm stating: “Closer examination of influenza vaccine policies shows that although proponents employ the rhetoric of science, the studies underlying the policy are often of low quality, and do not substantiate officials' claims. The vaccine might be less beneficial and less safe than has been claimed, and the threat of influenza appears overstated.”[18] A significant body of research proves that receiving the flu shot does not reduce mortality among seniors.[19] One particularly compelling study was carried out by scientists at the federal National Institutes of Health (NIH) and published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). Not only did the study indicate that the flu vaccine did nothing to prevent deaths from influenza among seniors, but that flu mortality rates increased as a greater percentage of seniors received the shot.[20] Dr. Sherri Tenpenny reviewed the Cochrane Database reviews on the flu vaccine's efficacy. In a review of 51 studies involving over 294,000 children, there was “no evidence that injecting children 6-24 months of age with a flu shot was any more effective than placebo. In children over 2 years of age, flu vaccine effectiveness was 33 percent of the time preventing flu. In children with asthma, inactivated flu vaccines did not prevent influenza related hospitalizations in children. The database shows that children who received the flu vaccine were at a higher risk of hospitalization than children who did not receive the vaccine.[21] In a separate study involving 400 asthmatic children receiving a flu vaccine and 400 who were not immunized, there was no difference in the number of clinic and emergency room visits and hospitalizations between the two groups.[22] In 64 studies involving 66,000 adults, “Vaccination of healthy adults only reduced risk of influenza by 6 percent and reduced the number of missed work days by less than one day. There was a change in the number of hospitalizations compared to the non-vaccinated. In further studies of elderly adults residing in nursing homes over the course of several flu seasons, flu vaccinations were insignificant for preventing infection.[23] Today, the most extreme wing of the pro-vaccine community continue to diligently pursue mandatory vaccination across all 50 states. During the flu season, the debate over mandatory vaccination becomes most heated as medical facilities and government departments attempt to threaten employees and schools who refuse vaccination. Although this is deeply worrisome to those who advocate their Constitutional rights to freedom of choice in their healthcare, there are respectable groups opposing mandatory flu shots. The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons “objects strenuously to any coercion of healthcare personnel to receive influenza immunization. It is a fundamental human right not to be subjected to medical interventions without fully informed consent.” The good news is that the majority of Americans have lost confidence in the CDC after the agency's dismal handling of the Covid-19 pandemic. Positive endorsement of the CDC would plummet further if the public knew the full extent of CDC officials lying to Congress and their conspiracy to commit medical fraud for two decades to cover=up evidence of an autism-vaccine association. When considering the totality of evidence, the benefit-risk ratio of flu vaccination becomes increasingly problematic. The poor and inconsistent efficacy rates, combined with the potential for serious adverse reactions and the phenomenon of viral interference, clearly indicates that the vaccine does not deliver the public health benefits it promises. Public health strategies must balance the benefits of vaccination against its risks, particularly for vulnerable populations such as children and pregnant women. Imagine the tens of thousands of children and families who would have been saved from life-long neurological damage and immeasurable suffering if the CDC was not indebted to protecting the pharmaceutical industry's toxic products and was in fact serving Americans' health and well-being? One step that can be taken to begin dismantling the marriage between the federal health agencies and drug companies is to simply refuse the flu vaccine and protect ourselves by adopting a healthier lifestyle during the flu season.

There once was a time when indoor smoking was allowed in workplaces all across the United States, when trans fats were ubiquitous, and when fast food restaurants didn't have to post calorie information on their menus. That wasn't so long ago, and it's in large part thanks to the pioneering efforts of Tom Frieden, MD, MPH, Health Commissioner of New York City from 2002 to 2009, that these changes were made. Dr. Frieden's city-wide initiatives during this time included steps to reduce tobacco use (by banning indoor smoking, increasing tobacco taxes, and aggressive anti-tobacco ads), to ban trans fats and mandate proper nutrition labeling in restaurants, and to rapidly expand screening for diabetes and HIV. All of these efforts have since been adopted nationwide and have gained practically universal acceptance by the public. Prior to this, Dr. Frieden spearheaded tuberculosis control measures in New York City and India, drastically slashing rates of multidrug resistant tuberculosis. He was also director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, during which time he led the CDC's response against the H1N1 influenza pandemic, the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, and the Zika virus epidemic. Most recently, he leads Resolve to Save Lives, an initiative aiming to prevent cardiovascular disease primarily through advocacy of lifestyle interventions. Over the course of our conversation, Dr. Frieden shares his personal path to a career in infectious disease and public health, lessons learned from his work on tuberculosis control, striking the balance between curbing personal liberties and protecting community health, key insights into effective public health communication particularly when dealing with incomplete information or data, the evolution of the political and partisan nature of health policy, why preventing heart disease is so critical, and more.In this episode, you'll hear about: 3:00 - How a conversation with his father drew Dr. Frieden to a career in public health5:40 - Dr. Frieden's early work tackling tuberculous as a “management problem”9:05 - Balancing individual rights with the health of the public17:55 - The formula Dr. Frieden has used to choose which particular public health issues to focus on 28:08 - Strategies for effective health communication with the public33:08 - The mission of Dr. Frieden's organization Resolve to Save Lives39:16 - Dr. Frieden's thoughts on how to navigate public health communications in the light of changing scientific knowledge45:50 - The important lessons that Dr. Frieden learned from his patients about public health during his time as a clinician Dr. Tom Frieden is the President and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives.

Dr. Paul Alexander Liberty Hour – The H5N1 avian bird flu 'pandemic' is another fraud, just like H1N1 and COVID. Using over-cycled PCR tests, they manufacture false positives to create fake pandemics. Respiratory viruses cannot truly cause pandemics due to their instability. This time, we must not be deceived by the hysteria. Trust critical thinking and be prepared to see through the lies propagated by authorities and health agencies.
Tonight was a little unhindged. The doc for the week was chaotic to say the least. We delivered though and you're going to get the news and the head fakes that mass media is pumping out. Iran, the US, and Israel are in the news again because Israel took a big swing at Iranian higher ups. Earthquakes galore were felt around the world but the folks in Jersey freaked out. Greta got fake arrested again, but there was a twist this time. We talked about dead penguins, Bird Flu, and a salt areosal test in SF that's trying to cool the earth! Oh yeah and horny zombie cicadas that are into watersports. If you know what I mean.
