The American Academy of Pediatrics is breaking with the CDC for the first time in decades by continuing to recommend Covid-19 shots for infants and young children. By contrast the CDC, under Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., is no longer recommending the vaccine for healthy kids. Infectious disease expert Michael Osterholm joins us to help make sense of the conflicting messages. We'll also get his thoughts on federal cuts to vaccine research funding, and our readiness for future pandemics. Guests: Dr. Michael Osterholm, epidemiologist; director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy, University of Minnesota Learn more about your ad choices.

On Thursday's show: An announced rollback of mRNA vaccine development and funding comes as Texas is among the states seeing the largest rise in COVID cases this summer. Infectious disease specialist Catherine Troisi offers her take on what the rollback means.Also this hour: A Grand Parkway expansion project is just the latest sign of ongoing growth in Greater Houston's north and west sides. We discuss the project and what is behind the growth.Then, theater productions involve a lot more than actors stepping out on stage and reciting lines.

US Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Junior has announced plans to cancel funding for vaccine development. Infectious disease experts says that decision threatens lives and leaves the country ill-prepared to respond to future pandemics.

“A gentleman's hands are [always] clean” Infectious diseases caused by bacteria have killed well over half of all humans who have ever lived on Earth. Historically, bacterial infections have started major pandemics such as the bubonic plague, which is estimated to have killed 50-60 per cent of the population of Europe during the Black Death in the 14th Century. And yet when a person in Oregon came down with bubonic plague in 2024 it was a non-event. The pathogen involved was quickly identified and antibiotics given. There was no chain of infection and no epidemic. And the patient lived. Germ theory is one of the most transformative developments in human history. … Continue reading →

Infectious disease physician Janet A. Jokela discusses her article, "Measles is back: Why vaccination is more vital than ever." Recounting her own experience diagnosing a case in the 1990s, Janet contrasts that contained incident with the current crisis in 2025, which has seen over 1000 cases and the first pediatric deaths in the U.S. in 22 years. The conversation covers the critical 95 percent vaccination rate required for herd immunity, a threshold the country is falling below, and explains why measles is one of the most contagious diseases known. Janet dismantles dangerous misinformation about the MMR vaccine and ineffective alternative treatments, emphasizing that the vaccine is 97 percent effective and has saved millions of lives. For listeners, the key takeaways are to understand the severe, and sometimes fatal, complications of measles—such as pneumonia and encephalitis—and to recognize that the benefits of the MMR vaccine far outweigh any risks.

We see anaemia in cats pretty frequently, but it isn't always down to things like IMHA or haemorrhage.  There are infectious causes as well, and we need to be aware of them as veterinary nurses and technicians, so we can care for our patients well (and confidently!) and advise our clients accordingly. The main one we think about in cats is feline infectious anaemia, aka haemoplasmosis - and that's exactly what we'll be discussing today. This disease is more common than you might think, with up to 27% of cats testing positive - and many of these patients presenting with severe anaemia requiring prompt treatment and nursing care. So if you've ever felt a little unsure when managing an anaemic cat, wondered why your vet is treating anaemia with antibiotics, or felt like there must be more you can do to help these patients, we'll dive into it all in this episode. --- Resources mentioned in this episode:

What happens when an old virus makes a new appearance? In this episode, we explore the legacy and resurgence of Infectious Salmon Anemia (ISA)—a disease that has shaped the global salmon industry for decades. With recent outbreaks reported in Northern Norway, we dive into what ISA is, how it spreads, and what history can teach us from past crises in Canada, Chile, Scotland, and the Faroe Islands. You'll learn how modern tools like genetic sequencing, DNA vaccines, and strict biosecurity protocols are helping farms fight back—and what today's uptick in cases might signal for the industry's future. For more aquaculture insights head to our Fish n' Bits blog.

Infectious disease specialist Dr. Peter Bornstein has treated countless patients with sepsis. Despite his expertise, Peter found himself battling this condition as a patient, sharing how he ignored the early symptoms until they escalated rapidly. Peter talks openly about the lessons he learned about navigating healthcare as both a doctor and patient. Key Takeaways: Sepsis is serious. Early signs include shaking chills, rapid heart rate, and lightheadedness. Don't hesitate to seek urgent care. Your medical history matters. Even minor procedures weeks prior can be critical to diagnosis. UTIs require attention. Symptoms like pain or frequent urination shouldn't be ignored, especially for men. Advocate for yourself. If antibiotics don't work within 3–4 days, ask for an infectious disease consultation.

In this episode, we interview Morgan Anderson, PharmD, BCIDP, a graduate of the RFUMS College of Pharmacy, about her career path from a pharmacy resident, emergency medicine specialist, infectious diseases specialist, and now a medical sciences liaison. The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed in this podcast are solely Dr. Anderson's own and do not necessarily reflect the views, positions, or policies of her employer. This podcast is conducted in a personal capacity, and any reference to her professional background is for context only. Key Concepts Having a wide breadth of skills and making yourself marketable is important when transitioning between jobs or career paths. Skills like communication and teamwork can be improved and are applicable to a wide variety of careers within pharmacy. Medical Science Liaisons (MSLs) are a common role for pharmacists in the pharmaceutical industry. MSLs are field-based roles within the medical affairs department of the company. MSLs are medical and scientific experts who build collaborative relationships with key thought leaders, facilitate exchange of scientific information and insights, and serve as a conduit between these thought leaders and other areas of the company. Two common career paths to pharmacists becoming an MSL are via a fellowship program or after years in clinical practice. A fellowship program provides a more structured approach, including mentoring and networking, with access to a variety of areas of the company outside of medical affairs. A pathway after clinical practice is more self-directed with less structure, but provides pharmacists with a strong clinical background that can be helpful in an MSL role. Being a scientific communicator, possessing strong emotional intelligence, and being adaptable are critical soft skills that are essential for success in an MSL role. These soft skills can be improved with practice! References https://www.industrypharmacist.org/
