We hear from a Mexican city in Sinaloa state where one of the big drug cartels is locked in its own civil war. Our correspondent Quentin Sommerville visited the state capital, Culiacán, where he witnessed scenes of brutal violence that have brought pain and terror to residents. Also: Cuba says its coastguard has killed four people on board a US-registered speedboat, in an exchange of fire off the Cuban coast. It said those on the boat were Cubans, living in the US, with a history of violent activity - and "terrorist" intentions. The American Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, called the shootout "highly unusual" and said the US would conduct its own investigation into the incident and not rely on the Cuban version of events. A British clinical trial on more than 500 people across 15 countries found that a new tablet to treat HIV - which combines two current treatments - is highly effective at keeping the virus suppressed. A BBC Eye investigation has revealed that Nepal's top police officer gave the order allowing the use of live fire during last year's deadly crackdown on Gen Z protests - one of the worst in the country's history. And the robot that conducted Denmark's National Symphony Orchestra. We have the verdict on its performance. The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

The United States is ending its health programmes in Zimbabwe, including HIV treatment for one point two million people. The US embassy said Harare had pulled out of negotiations over a new health aid agreement which would have provided 367 million dollars over five years. The US has been renegotiating aid to Africa following the abolition of USAID by President Trump. Also on the programme: The influential economist, Larry Summers, resigns from Harvard over the Epstein files and the Microsoft co-founder, Bill Gates, apologises to staff about his links with the convicted sex offender; and we'll hear why Emperor penguins are facing the threat of extinction. (Photo shows a health official opening a rapid HIV test during the launch of Lenacapavir, a long‑acting HIV prevention injection outside Harare, Zimbabwe on 19 February 2026.Credit: Philimon Bulawayo/Reuters)
This week, we explore a new standard of care for high-risk HER2-positive early breast cancer, long-acting therapy for people with HIV facing adherence challenges, a first-in-class trial of a p53 reactivator, and tecovirimat for mpox. We review group B streptococcal disease and a revealing case of prosthetic joint infection. Perspectives examine the role of folate therapy, Medicare drug-price negotiation, AI in medical education, and incidental findings.
Robin Beach is an HIV specialist who began to turn a critical eye to the usefulness of body mass index (BMI) when it came to understanding the overall health of a patient. On the latest episode of NP Pulse: The Voice of the Nurse Practitioner®, she speaks with Sophia Thomas about using waist circumference as a way to measure the health of specific patient populations instead of BMI, and offers practical strategies for bringing this new tool into routine practice.

Against a backdrop of violent anti-semitic and anti-indigenous attacks and the relaxation of police restraints in response to them, Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras organizers are faced with twin controversies: the withdrawal of the Jewish group Dayenu from the event and demands for the expulsion of the New South Wales Police contingent. Veteran activist Ken Davis explains the situation (Barry McKay reports). New Yorkers defy the Trump administration and replace the rainbow flag the government “disappeared” from the Stonewall National Monument (Paul DeRienzo of WBAI reports). A Black History Month Rainbow Rewind honors Langston Hughes (produced by Sheri Lunn and Brian DeShazor). And in NewWrap: the European Parliament approves a resolution specifically calling for “the full recognition of trans women as women,” HIV-positive enlistees are once again banned from serving in the U.S. military, intersex children are now protected from undergoing unnecessary medical procedures without their informed consent in the Australian state of Victoria, Kansans can now sue if they're upset after sharing a bathroom with a trans person, U.S. Olympic women's ice hockey team captain Hilary Knight leads her team to gold and plans to lead speed skater Brittany Bowe to the altar, and more international LGBTQ news reported this week by Nico Raquel and Ret (produced by Brian DeShazor).

With Australia on track to be among the first countries in the world to eliminate the transmission of HIV, there is a lot to be optimistic about. Yet globally the rates of transmission and AIDS-related deaths are predicted to rise, disproportionately impacting marginalised communities and people living in low and middle income countries. Weakening US political commitment and recent funding cuts are threatening the delicate global healthcare architecture designed to prevent and treat HIV/AIDS. High-income countries, like Australia, have a crucial role to play in enabling accessible research, testing, treatment, healthcare and public education with international communities. Hear renowned leading infectious disease researcher and President of the International AIDS Society, Dr Beatriz Grinsztejn, in conversation with Australia’s Dr Norman Swan. From diversifying funding sources to strengthening universal public health systems and promoting community involvement, Dr Grinsztejn and Dr Swan will discuss how to overcome the setbacks deepening the inequities between who gets care and who goes without.

Infection control consultant Katherine West breaks down the latest HIV post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) guidelines published in mid-2025. Highlighting key changes since the 2013 update, she explains the shift toward less toxic antiretroviral regimens, elimination of routine baseline lab testing for PEP, and new protocols for exposures involving patients with undetectable viral loads. West emphasizes the importance of expert follow-up care, clarifies who is responsible for source patient testing, and underscores the low risk of occupational HIV transmission. She also discusses challenges faced by emergency providers managing exposures outside regular occupational health hours and the role of 24/7 consultation services. The segment covers legal nuances, especially OSHA and state laws regarding HIV testing consent, and reiterates the CDC's push for routine HIV screening to aid in the national goal of ending the HIV epidemic by 2030.

In his new book Shooting Up: A Memoir of Love, Loss and Addiction, Jonathan Tepper recounts growing up in Madrid's heroin epidemic as his missionary parents built a grassroots rehab network in one of Europe's hardest-hit neighborhoods. Surrounded by addicts, crime, and a generation devastated by HIV, he watched lives restored through faith and discipline—while also burying friends and even his own brother after a tragic accident. This is a stark, deeply personal account of addiction, redemption, and what sacrificial love looks like in the middle of cultural collapse.

"Because the premise of immune checkpoint blockade centers around elevating the immune function, we should always take a great deal of caution around those patients who have high immune risks. Those include patients with autoimmune disorders. That's one of our biggest questions that we ask, usually every consult that we're seeing with solid tumor. 'Do you have any history of autoimmune disorders? Tell me a little bit more about it. Is it being treated? What are your symptoms like?' And then also patients who have undergone organ transplants. Now, interestingly, this does include stem cell transplants," Kelsey Finch, PharmD, BCOP, oncology pharmacist practitioner at Columbus Regional Health in Indiana, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about checkpoint inhibitors.

Highlights From This Episode "Before immune checkpoint blockade, the two-year overall survival rate in metastatic melanoma was hovering around 10%. After these agents came to market, depending on the trial and the agents used, that number actually increased to about 50%–65%. So, five times the amount of patients were actually living at the two-year mark. Not surprisingly, studies then exploded across several tumor types, leading to approvals in all sorts of cancers, mostly in the solid tumor. But there are a couple hematologic as well. Lung cancer, kidney cancer, head and neck, Hodgkin lymphoma, hepatocellular, the list goes on. So, it's really just transforming the stage IV setting across all tumors, specifically from uniformly fatal prognosis to one where durable responses and long-term survival is also possible." TS 3:03 "There are four different mechanisms officially being used in therapies that are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Those are cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–associated protein 4, programmed cell death protein 1, and programmed cell death ligand 1, which I'm counting as two different mechanisms, even though they somewhat work together. And lymphocyte-activation gene 3 is the fourth one that's in there. So, all these mechanisms impact the T cell in our immune system. The T cell is traditionally responsible for protecting our body from harmful things like bacteria, viruses, and cancer. When the tumor binds to cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–associated protein 4 receptors, that happens on the T cell itself. And that inhibits the activation of the T cells, essentially allowing that tumor to then live. So when developing medications that block this receptor, they noted an added benefit that it actually increased the T-cell proliferation as well as keeping that T cell active. So not only are we not blocking the T cells, we're making them more productive." TS 5:38 "If you have a chance of any sort of tissue rejection, specifically with allogeneic stem cell transplants or where we see that focusing on it, there's a little bit of controversy, mixed bag on opinions as far as autologous stem cell transplants. But it's best to at least exercise a little bit of caution. If they have a chance of organ rejection, is that worth the risk of the therapy that we're looking to give? And then, patients with HIV, any sort of immunologic concerns at baseline that we could potentially worsen." TS 14:37 "As a rule of thumb, with immune checkpoint blockade, regardless of what mechanism you're looking at, if something in your body can get inflamed, that can wind up as an adverse event. So, whenever I talk to my patients, the key word is anything ending in '-itis.' ... The most common adverse events that we end up seeing are dermatitis and hypothyroidism. Immune checkpoint blockade can cause both hyper- and hypothyroidism. Very often, we actually start in the hyper- and then end up, for lack of better words, burning out the thyroid, ultimately leading to a sustained hypothyroidism." TS 18:34 "The half-life of immune checkpoint inhibitors is usually around 30 days, meaning that once these agents are given, the drug will be in the patient's system for up to five months. Specifically, it will probably build month to month, so often we don't even see a lot of our adverse events until month three or four. Usually, when we're that far into treatment, we're not looking for new adverse events in things like chemotherapy. But these drugs do build over time." TS 24:28 "As far as safe handling is concerned, these agents are not chemotherapy. That makes drug compounding and administration pretty straightforward. When looking at the follow-up care, the most important thing, in my opinion, is to engage in meaningful dialogue with your patients. A lot of the side effects can be nonspecific. So, really listening to the patient and evaluating changes in their lifestyle, I think it'll get you far. We usually hark in on the new, worsening, or persistent whenever we're talking to patients because they'll be looking for things as well. So, just having a dialogue of how their life has changed can certainly help." TS 26:17

Previous episodes related to HIV: -Episode 67, HIV history (September 2021) -Episode 68, HIV transmissibility (October 2021) -Episode 70 (October 2021), HIV prevention (including HIV Prep with oral medications) -Episode 98 (June 2022), we introduced Apretude, the first injectable for HIV PrEP. Apretude was approved in December 2021. What is Pre-Exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)? Pre-exposure prophylaxis, or PrEP, is the use of antiretroviral medications taken by individuals who are HIV-negative to prevent HIV acquisition. There are 30,000 new HIV infections annually in the US. How effective is it? When taken as prescribed, PrEP is highly effective at reducing the risk of HIV transmission through sexual exposure and injection drug use. Patients who are adherent to PrEP can lower their risk of contracting HIV by 99%. The effectiveness of oral PrEP is highly adherence dependent. In trials with 70% adherence, the relative risk of HIV acquisition was 0.27, compared to 0.51 with 40-70% adherence and no significant benefit with adherence ≤40%. How does PrEP work? PrEP works by maintaining therapeutic drug levels in the bloodstream and in target tissues. If HIV exposure occurs, viral replication is inhibited, preventing the establishment of infection. Brief History of PrEP. The concept of PrEP originated from early animal studies demonstrating that antiretroviral medications could prevent retroviral transmission when administered before exposure. In 2010, the iPrEx trial showed that daily oral tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (known as Truvada) with emtricitabine significantly reduced HIV acquisition among men who have sex with men and transgender women. This was the first large clinical trial to demonstrate the effectiveness of PrEP. In 2012, the FDA approved oral Truvada, which is TDF/FTC (tenofovir disoproxil and emtricitabine) for HIV prevention. Since then, additional studies have expanded indications and introduced new formulations, including long-acting injectable options. Who Should Be Offered PrEP? PrEP should be considered for any HIV-negative individual at increased risk of HIV acquisition, including Men who have sex with men, transgender individuals, heterosexual men and women with an HIV-positive partner, individuals with recent bacterial sexually transmitted infections, people who inject drugs, individuals engaging in condomless sex with partners of unknown HIV status. Remember that PrEP should be offered in a nonjudgmental, patient-centered manner, make it a safe space to talk openly about prevention of HIV. Available HIV PrEP Options. Daily Oral PrEP: There are 2 formulations of Tenofovir. There is Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)/ Truvada and Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)/ Descovy. Each is available in a tablet combined with Emtricitabine a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor. Truvada: It is approved for all populations at risk through sexual exposure or injection drug use. Something to look out for before starting this medication is for pre-existing CKD. Do not give to patients who have an estimated glomerular filtration rate of less than 60 mL/min. (6) Descovy: This option is approved for men who have sex with men and transgender women but is not approved for individuals at risk through receptive vaginal sex. It has less impact on renal function and bone mineral density compared to Truvada. It can be used in moderately reduced kidney function (GFR between 30-60 mL/min). Truvada and Descovy are taken orally once a day. After patients start taking these medications, when are they considered to be protected? Nicole: With daily oral PrEP, guidelines differ with WHO and International Aids Society-USA stating it takes about 7 days, while CDC states 21 days to allow for adequate concentration in tissues (1). Adherence is critical for efficacy. Injectable HIV PrEP. In 2021, the FDA approved the first Injectable PrEP option Long-acting cabotegravir (CAB-LA)- known on the market as Apretude. Cabotegravir is an integrase strand transfer inhibitor administered as an intramuscular injection.Dosing consists of an initial injection, a second injection one month later, and then maintenance injections every two months (1). Another option is Lenacapavir (Yeztugo). The Yeztugo as a pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV in Oct 2024. Yeztugo is the first and only FDA-approved HIV prevention treatment that requires just two injections per year, offering a long-acting option for people who weigh at least 35kg. It is given as 2 injections every 6 months. First dose is given with 2 tablets on Day 1 and Day 2, then every 6 months 2 injections on the same day. Clinical trials, including HPTN 083 and HPTN 084, demonstrated that injectable cabotegravir is superior to daily oral PrEP in preventing HIV infection. This advantage is largely due to improved adherence rather than differences in intrinsic drug potency. There have been no head-to-head comparisons between Yeztugo and Apretude, but they are both very effective. Apretude starts protecting 7 days after the first dose, and Yeztugo starts protecting 2 hours after Day 2 (if patient takes the oral loading dose) or 3-4 weeks if no oral load is taken. Injectable PrEP is particularly beneficial for patients who struggle with daily pill adherence, have trouble swallowing pills, prefer a discreet option, have difficulty storing their medication or have renal or bone disease that limits the use of tenofovir-based regimens like Truvada and Descovy (6). In one unpublished report by Medline, patients who received Apretude had an increase in bone mineral density compared to those who received Truvada (1). Tests prior to starting PrEP. Before initiating PrEP, patients must be confirmed to be HIV-negative. Baseline evaluation includes HIV testing with a fourth-generation antigen/antibody assay, HIV RNA testing if acute infection is suspected, renal function testing for oral PrEP, Hepatitis B screening, sexually transmitted infection screening, and pregnancy testing when appropriate. PrEP should not be started in individuals with known or suspected acute HIV infection. Monitoring for patients on HIV PrEP. Monitoring typically includes HIV testing every 2 to 3 months, STI screening every 3 to 6 months, renal function monitoring for those on oral PrEP (tenofovir- based), ongoing adherence and risk-reduction counseling. And for injectable PrEP, adherence to the injection schedule is essential, as delayed dosing may increase the risk of resistance if HIV infection occurs. HIV PrEP is not a prevention for other STIs. Screening for STIs and counseling about prevention is essential. Breakthrough HIV infections on PrEP are rare and most often associated with poor adherence or delayed diagnosis. Truvada is more studied in all populations and is considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding. There is less data regarding the injectable option in patients who are pregnant, may become pregnant, or whose primary risk factor is injection drug use (1). Injectable PrEP provides an important alternative for patients with chronic kidney disease and bone disease (1). Key Takeaway Pre-exposure prophylaxis is a safe, effective, and evidence-based strategy for HIV prevention. With both daily oral and long-acting injectable options available, PrEP can be individualized to meet patient needs. Normalizing PrEP discussions in clinical practice is essential to reducing new HIV infections and advancing public health goals. Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser.

BUFFALO, NY — February 19, 2026 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 18 of Aging-US on February 8, 2026, titled “Single-cell transcriptomics reveal intrinsic and systemic T cell aging in COVID-19 and HIV.” In this study, co-first authors Alan Tomusiak from the Buck Institute for Research on Aging and the University of Southern California, and Sierra Lore from the Buck Institute for Research on Aging and the University of Copenhagen, together with corresponding author Eric Verdin from the Buck Institute for Research on Aging, developed a new single-cell transcriptomic clock called T immune cell transcriptomic clock (Tictock) to measure aging in specific immune cells. Immune aging increases susceptibility to infection, cancer, and chronic inflammatory disease. Most aging clocks, used to measure it, rely on bulk measurements from mixed cell populations. As a result, they cannot determine whether age-related signals reflect shifts in cell proportions or true molecular aging within defined immune cells. To address this limitation, the research team used single-cell RNA sequencing, a method that measures gene expression in individual cells. They analyzed nearly two million immune cells from the blood of healthy adults to develop Tictock. This tool integrates automated classification of six canonical T cell subsets with cell-type specific age prediction models. This design enables the separation of systemic aging, reflected by changes in cell proportions, from intrinsic aging, which occurs within individual cells. When the team applied Tictock to patients with acute COVID-19, they found two clear effects. First, COVID-19 altered T cell composition, including significant reductions in naïve CD8 and naïve CD4 T cells. Second, the infection increased the biological age of naïve CD8 T cells. In people living with HIV who were receiving long-term antiretroviral therapy, T cell proportions remained largely stable. However, naïve CD8 T cells still showed signs of accelerated aging. The study also uncovered shared biological pathways linked to immune aging. Many of the genes that predicted age were involved in ribosomes, the structures that help cells produce proteins. The researchers also observed that older immune cells often had shorter average transcript lengths, a feature previously linked to aging. These findings suggest that changes in protein production and gene regulation play an important role in immune decline. “Gene Ontology enrichment of 209 genes shared across six clock models identified common pathways including the cytosolic small ribosomal subunit, TNF receptor binding, and cytosolic ribosome components.” Overall, Tictock was designed to measure relative aging within defined T cell populations rather than overall biological aging. By distinguishing systemic from cell-intrinsic immune aging, it provides a clearer understanding of how viral infections such as COVID-19 and HIV reshape immune function. This approach enables the study of immune aging at single-cell resolution and may support improved immune risk assessment in clinical and research settings.

Effective February 19, 2026, New York State law permits clinicians to dispense up to 72 hours (equivalent to a 3-day supply) of controlled substances, such as methadone and buprenorphine, for the management of opioid withdrawal while arranging referral and linkage to care for persons with opioid use disorder, as authorized by federal regulations (specifically, the Code of Federal Regulations or CFR number 1306.07). The federal regulations were updated in August 2023, and New York State law is just now catching up. We informally refer to the update as “The 72-Hour Rule.” Featuring Dr. Linda Wang, this episode reviews what this update means for New York State and how clinicians and healthcare administrators can think about its implementation. Are you implementing “The 72-Hour Rule” in clinical practice in New York State? We want to hear from you! Please reach out to share your experience: Lauren.walker3@mountsinai.org.

Early last year, a hundred researchers, clinicians and other experts on HIV discussed the development of an innovative vaccine that could prevent the disease. But just as the meeting was about to wrap up, the mood darkened. A new executive order signed by President Trump on Inauguration day had frozen all foreign aid, pending a review. Soon, DOGE would begin its decimation of USAID — and with it, this vaccine trial. That is – until the South African researchers came up with a new plan.

In this President's Day Radar Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan previews major stories unfolding at home and abroad, including troubling new details in the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping case in Tucson and a notable shift as Minnesota Democrats begin cooperating with ICE after weeks of defiance. Bryan also examines Hillary Clinton's surprising admission that open border policies "went too far," outlines President Trump's plan to build 92,000 new detention beds nationwide, and exposes how emotional media narratives often hide critical facts in high-profile immigration cases. He then turns to fresh revelations about partisan lawfare tied to the Trump investigations, new reporting on Jeffrey Epstein and coded communications, and a rare New York Times warning that America's marijuana experiment may be spiraling out of control. The episode closes with unsettling questions about whether advanced AI systems are beginning to think and react like humans, major signals from Europe that 100% solar and wind energy is failing, and encouraging medical breakthroughs in fibromyalgia treatment and immune health research worldwide.

I'm joined by Dr. Špela Šalamon, Nuclear Medicine Specialist Physician and biomedical scientist. She has contributed to global efforts in understanding and mitigating the impacts of COVID-19 and published several papers addressing the risks following COVID-19 infections, emphasizing the necessity for proactive health measures. In October of last year, she co-authored and published the AJPM Focus review article, COVID-19 is “Airborne AIDS”: provocative oversimplification, emerging science, or something in between? The review compares and contrasts “observations of the immunological impacts of COVID-19 and HIV infections […] examining shared and distinct mechanisms, such as immune dysfunction, vulnerability to opportunistic infections, accelerated aging and neurocognitive disorders, […] highlight[ing] critical parallels and their implications.” // Episode notes + transcript: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/spela-salamon // Sustain + support: https://www.patreon.com/lastborninthewilderness // Donate: https://www.paypal.me/lastbornpodcast

We HAVE to talk about the hyper sexual high risk married & single men who are constantly soliciting unwanted sexual acts from us online!
