Pharmacists have been vaccinating for years—it's about time they get the recognition (and reimbursement) they deserve. Marc Ost, Co-Owner of Eric's RX Shoppe in Horsham, PA, is here to make it happen. Marc joins us to talk about how he's driving change in vaccine access and reimbursement, from advocating with the FTC and state legislators to pioneering at-home immunization billing codes. He also shares what's new this year in vaccine administration, how pharmacies can adapt to new Part B service codes, and why telling your story to lawmakers still matters.

In episode 59 of Going anti-Viral, Dr Demetre Daskalakis joins host Dr Michael Saag to discuss his career in public health and the turnover in leadership at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Dr Daskalakis is an infectious diseases physician who served in leadership roles at the CDC from 2020 to 2025. He was director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases and was previously director of the Division of HIV Prevention at the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention. In 2022, he was appointed deputy coordinator of the White House response to the mpox outbreak. Dr Daskalakis discusses his career in public health and leadership roles in infectious diseases. Dr Saag and Dr Daskalakis have a detailed discussion about applying lessons learned from the HIV epidemic in the national response to the mpox outbreak and they discuss Dr Daskalakis's role at the CDC in response to the current measles outbreak. They also address ideologic-driven changes at the CDC under the direction of Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr. and the Department of Health and Human Services including the firing of Dr Susan Monarez and Dr Daskalakis' subsequent resignation. Finally, they discuss the current direction of the CDC and the outlook for public health without scientific leadership. They also discuss the possibility of a renaissance for public health in the future where it can be reimagined to focus on people instead of historic funding paradigms. 0:00 – Introduction1:21 – Career path in public health and leadership in infectious diseases 4:01 – Applying lessons from the HIV epidemic in response to the mpox outbreak9:48 – Transition to CDC and challenges with the new administration13:50 – CDC role in response to the current measles outbreak17:45 – Management of the CDC by Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr. and the Department of Health and Human Services 21:22 – The firing of Dr Susan Monarez from the CDC and Dr Daskalakis's resignation28:35 – The lack of scientific leadership remaining at CDC and future outlook ResourcesEpisode 50 - How Vaccines Get Approved in the US: The RSV Story and the Role of the ACIP – Dr Yvonne Maldonado__________________________________________________Produced by IAS-USA, Going anti–Viral is a podcast for clinicians involved in research and care in HIV, its complications, and other viral infections.

Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), covers the the biggest news in the health and wellness space from a holistic, naturopath perspective. First, Dr. Jack starts off with  the discussion on vaccines in Congress, especially the Hepatitis B vaccine — including the actual risks and actual benefits about which we're not typically told. There is a misconception on the stance of RFK Jr., and whether or not he is an “anti-vaxxer,” even thought he himself has been vaccinated and all but one of his children have been vaccinated. He's never once said he is against vaccines. RFK Jr.'s position is for safety studies. Circling back to the Hepatitis B vaccine, Dr. Jack shares that most newborns get the Hepatitis B vaccine on the day they're born. Hepatitis B is spread by dirty/shared needles, multiple sex partners, and other immunosuppressive behavior — with which most newborn babies are not involved. While the Hepatitis B vaccine has reduced acute cases in high-risk demographics, there is no evidence it's done the same thing with newborns. Safety concerns marring the Hepatitis B vaccine directs the fact that the one-size-fits all medical approach doesn't exist. Then, Doug joins Dr. Jack to discuss listener questions. Together, the gentlemen discuss the body's need for protein and the best way to get protein. Recently, pasta-makers have been adding protein to their noodle products to help those get the vital nutrient if they aren't eating meats to get their protein. As Dr. Jack always states, the best approach to essential nutrients is to consume it the way Mother Nature intended us to eat. Next, Doug addresses his hearing issues, and the quality of his hearing has gone down ever since a bug got stuck in his ear. Many people will easily accept a need to wear glasses, yet most will put off using hearing aids. Why is that. Doug and Dr. Jack dive in. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

China plans to include the human papillomavirus vaccine in its national immunization program, Shen Hongbing, head of the National Administration of Disease Control and Prevention and deputy director of the National Health Commission, said on Thursday.国家疾病预防控制局局长、国家卫生健康委员会副主任沈洪兵于周四表示,中国计划将人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)疫苗纳入国家免疫规划。Shen said the country would roll out HPV vaccination services this year for all eligible girls, aimed at protecting women's health.沈洪兵指出,我国今年将为所有符合条件的女孩提供HPV疫苗接种服务,此举旨在保障女性健康。So far, at least 17 provincial-level regions have announced that they will provide free HPV vaccines to eligible girls, typically those between the ages of 9 and 14. These programs use domestically developed vaccines that protect against the two most common HPV strains.截至目前,至少已有17个省级行政区宣布将为符合条件的女孩(通常为9至14岁)提供免费HPV疫苗。这些接种项目所使用的疫苗均为国产疫苗,可对两种最常见的HPV病毒亚型起到防护作用。Calls to incorporate HPV vaccines into the national immunization program have grown stronger in recent years due to the increasing availability of affordable domestic vaccines, as well as the rising burden of cervical cancer — the fifth most common cancer among women in China.近年来,随着价格亲民的国产HPV疫苗供应日益充足,加之宫颈癌疾病负担不断加重(宫颈癌目前是中国女性中第五大常见癌症),将HPV疫苗纳入国家免疫规划的呼声愈发强烈。Human papillomavirus infection is the leading cause of cervical cancer.人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染是导致宫颈癌的主要原因。The nation's free immunization program now covers 14 vaccines that can protect against 15 diseases. The program has not been expanded since 2007.我国现行的免费免疫规划涵盖14种疫苗,可预防15种疾病。该规划自2007年以来未再进行过扩容。HPV vaccinesn.HPV疫苗/ˌeɪtʃ piː viː vækˈsiːnz/eligible girlsn.符合条件的女孩

Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who resigned in protest from his position as director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, talks with Jen Psaki about the valuable work being done by the people at the CDC, and how the Trump administration, through HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is corrupting the CDC with unscientific attitudes and agendas.Jen's Version: Jen Psaki answers questions posed in today's White House press briefing, without the Trump administration's spin, and doubles down on her criticism of the Trump White House for taking no action to prevent gun violence and instead wasting time on "bad faith back-and-forth."Plus, Philadelphia D.A.
