Senator Rand Paul grilled Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel over the occurrences of myocarditis in young men who take the COVID-19 vaccine. At a Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee hearing, Bancel disclosed a $400 million payment to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases from Moderna as part of a deal between the government agency and the drug company for mRNA technology and intellectual property rights. TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew got a verbal smackdown from the House Energy and Commerce Committee this morning. During the hearing, Chew promoted Project Texas, TikTok's plan to address U.S. security and privacy concerns. Chew told the committee that employees of Douyin, China's TikTok equivalent, can currently access U.S. user data in China. A newly released letter from 2018 shows that Michael Cohen used his own personal funds to pay $130,000 to Stormy Daniels and that neither The Trump Organization nor Trump's campaign were party to the transaction and did not reimburse Cohen for the payment directly or indirectly.

Conjunctivitis, commonly known as pink eye, is a common eye infection that presents at pediatrician offices and often keeps kids out of school or daycare. Although conjunctivitis is commonly caused by viral infections, there are other reasons why a patient might get pink eye. As a pediatric provider, it is essential to understand the signs and symptoms of pink eye and to weigh the risks and benefits of prescribing antibiotics. This episode discusses the treatment of conjunctivitis and the role pediatricians play in antibiotic stewardship.   Guest: Nicole Poole, MD, is an assistant professor of pediatrics in the Division of Infectious Diseases at the University of Colorado and the Associate Medical Director of the Antibiotic Stewardship Program at Children's Hospital Colorado.   Episode resources:  Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) website: https://cdphe.colorado.gov/child-care-health-regulations How Sick is Too Sick?

ISMS 9: Saving Silicon Valley Bank Brings New Risks

My Worst Investment Ever Podcast

The Silicon Valley Bank crisis started when the US government shut down its economyThe Silicon Valley Bank crisis started when the US government shut down the economy from 2020 to 2021.Let's take a step back to January 29th, 2020, when President Donald Trump announced a White House Coronavirus Response task force with the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Anthony Fauci, and Deborah Brix as coordinator.The decision to shut down the economy originated from this body but was ultimately implemented by President Trump, members of congress, and eventually President Joe Biden. This decision was truly the worst decision I have ever seen a government make in my lifetime.Businesses and individuals saw their income collapseDuring that time, businesses and individuals saw their revenues collapse and could not pay the costs necessary to sustain their businesses and livelihood.The US government then came up with various programs to distribute money to these struggling businesses and individuals. Unfortunately, the government did not have this money to distribute.As we all learned in political science 101, the source of any government funds, of course, comes from its citizens, but in this case, citizens and businesses were reeling from the government's shutdown of the economy and hence had no money.The US government had to borrow moneySo the only choice the government had was to borrow money. But the US Treasury department could not borrow from the population as citizens were in dire straits. Usually, the US government would be able to borrow from foreigners; however, as other countries were suffering and for various geopolitical reasons, foreigners didn't buy much US government debt.In fact, in 2014, foreigners owned US$6.2trn of US Treasury Department bonds; five years later, in 2019, they only held slightly more at US$6.8trn. Throughout the crisis, the US Treasury Department could only get about one trillion dollars of foreign money to buy US Treasuries.The US government needed trillions of dollarsBut the US government needed a lot more money than that. In fact, between the end of 2019 and the end of 2021, the US government borrowed US$6.4trn, causing total US government debt to rise to US$29.6trn by the end of 2021, 122% of GDP.So, the US government needed US$6.4trn and couldn't get it from taxpayers or businesses at that time, so where did they get it? As I mentioned earlier, they got about US$1trn of it from foreign investors, which left a US$5.4trn hold.In 2020/21, the Fed stepped in and lent money to the US TreasuryThe solution was for the Federal Reserve to step in and lend the money to the US Treasury. Now the Fed is not allowed to buy bonds directly from the US Treasury, so the largest banks bought these bonds and then offloaded most of them to the Fed. The total assets of the Fed grew from US$4.6trn at the end of 2019 to US$8.8trn by the end of 2021, a US$4.2trn increase.To put this into perspective, from 2020 to 2021, the US government spent US$12trn and took in taxes of US$5.1trn.This massive injection of money raised depositsThis massive injection of money resulted in deposits of individuals and companies at US banks increasing by US$4.7trn during 2020 and 2021. The banks put about half of that money, or about US$2.2trn, into cash. About a third of those deposits, or US$1.6trn, went into securities at a time when interest rates were close to zero. In 2020 US 10-year Treasury bonds yielded about 0.9%, and it was about 1.5% in 2021.Banks receive short-term deposits and lend long-termBanks generally receive short-term deposits and lend that to companies on a long-term basis. But in 2020 and 2021, there was enough concern about the economy that banks didn't lend much. Instead, they put that money into cash and securities.In 2020...

The question of the SARS-CoV-2 origin: whether it was a zoonotic spillover from a wet market, or an engineered virus that escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, is seemingly a debate that will never go away. Most interestingly, while scientists with specific domain expertise seem to be building a consensus towards the former, public opinion appears to be trending towards the latter. This delta between expert and popular opinion has been helped along by the frothy discourse in mainstream and social media, with most figures that we cover in this podcast dead-set certain that it came from a lab. Most recently, Sam Harris hosted on his Making Sense podcast the molecular biologist Alina Chan and. science writer Matt Ridley, spokespersons for the lab leak case, and authors of "Viral: The Search for the Origin of COVID-19". To a layperson, and certainly to Sam, they put forward a rather watertight case. Intrinsic to the arguments advanced were the ideas that (a) experts in the area were refusing to engage with and unable to answer their arguments, and (b) a strong implication that there is a conspiracy of silence among virologists not just in China but internationally, to suppress the lab leak hypothesis.So, as a case study in the public understanding of science, it seems like a pretty pickle indeed. To help unravel the pickle(?) in this somewhat special episode, we are joined by three virologists who are amply qualified to address the topic; both in terms of the evidence and whether they are involved in a conspiracy of silence.Kristian Andersen is a Professor in the Department of Immunology and Microbiology at Scripps Research. He focuses on the relationship between host and pathogen, using sequencing, fieldwork, experimentation, and computational biology methods. He has spearheaded large international collaborations investigating the emergence, spread and evolution of deadly pathogens, including SARS-CoV-2, Zika virus, Ebola virus, West Nile virus, and Lassa virus.Prof Michael Worobey, is the head of the department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Arizona. His work focuses on the genomes of viruses, using molecular and computational biology, to understand the origins, emergence and control of pandemics. Recently, his interdisciplinary work on SARS-CoV-2 has shed light on how and when the virus originated and ignited the COVID-19 pandemic in China and how SARS-CoV-2 emerged and took hold in North America and Europe.Prof Edward "Eddie" Holmes, is an NHMRC Leadership Fellow & Professor of Virology at the Faculty of Medicine and Health at Sydney University, a member of the Sydney Institute for Infectious Diseases, a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science and a Fellow of The Royal Society. He is known for his work on the evolution and emergence of infectious diseases, particularly the mechanisms by which RNA viruses jump species boundaries to emerge in humans and other animals. He has studied the emergence and spread of such pathogens as SARS-CoV-2, influenza virus, dengue virus, HIV, hepatitis C virus, myxoma virus, RHDV and Yersinia pestis.All three researchers have specialist expertise and decades of experience directly applicable to tracking viruses and their adaption to humans, and, fair to say, are fairly eminent in their fields (Eddie in particular!). Further, they are among the relatively small set of researchers collecting and analysing primary evidence on the origins of SARS-CoV-2, communicating their findings in top-ranked journals, including Nature and Science. In this episode, Chris and Matt put to this trio of Professors the claims rasied by lab leak advocates to see what these (damn conspirators) experts have to say for themselves.LinksSam Harris Making Sense

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (03/06/2023): 3:05pm- According to The New York Post's Miranda Devine, “[n]ew emails uncovered by House Republicans probing the COVID-19 pandemic reveal the deceptive nature of Dr. Anthony Fauci.” In early 2020, Fauci commissioned a paper to “disprove the theory that the virus leaked from a lab in Wuhan, China.” You can read the opinion editorial here: https://nypost.com/2023/03/05/new-emails-show-fauci-commissioned-paper-to-disprove-wuhan-lab-leak-theory/ 3:30pm- Appearing on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo, Congressman Jim Jordan (R-OH) addressed allegations that Dr. Anthony—as Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease—pushed researchers to disprove the laboratory leak theory. Rep. Jordan called for greater transparency immediately. 3:40pm- While speaking with Margaret Brennan, former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb said, “I think we should work under the assumption that there is a probability [the COVID-19 pandemic] was a lab leak…we ought to look into outlawing that kind of research…or conduct it in… high security labs.” 3:50pm- Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told Fox News' Shannon Bream that he has no doubt that COVID-19 originated from a laboratory leak in Wuhan, China and accused Dr. Anthony Fauci of being “complicit” in its cover-up. 4:05pm- Speaking at the 2023 Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) taking place outside of Washington, D.C., former President Donald Trump referred to the World Health Organization (WHO) as “We Hide Outbreaks.” Trump also told members of the press that China needs to be held accountable for the COVID-19 outbreak, accusing China of costing the world economy an estimated $50 trillion in economic growth. 4:10pm- On Sunday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis spoke at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Ventura, California. During his speech, in front of a packed crowd, Gov. DeSantis criticized California Governor Gavin Newsom, Disney, and woke ideology. 4:15pm- Former United States Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley spoke at the 2023 Conservative Political Action Coalition (CPAC) taking place outside of Washington, D.C. over the weekend. Her speech was not well attended—is she just campaigning to be the eventual Republican Presidential nominee's Vice President? 4:35pm- According to The New York Post, the Minnesota Department of Human Rights has ordered USA Powerlifting to permit biological males who identify as female to compete in the women's division. 4:55pm- New York City Mayor Eric Adams is now telling citizens to remove their face masks when entering a store—in hopes of cracking down on shoplifting. 5:05pm- The Drive at 5: According to a report from Ari Blaff at National Review, “Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) staff attorney Thomas Jurgens was among the dozens of rioters arrested following a violent attack on police at the proposed site of the Atlanta Police Foundation's training facility, located a few miles south of the city.” The Southern Poverty Law Center is notorious for inaccurately labeling mundane conservative organizations as dangerous, hate groups. You can read the report at: https://www.nationalreview.com/news/dozens-arrested-for-attacking-cops-with-molotov-cocktails-bricks-at-atlanta-training-facility/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=breaking&utm_campaign=newstrack&utm_term=30748108 5:20pm- In response to Hershey's decision to go “woke”, The Daily Wire has released its own brand of chocolate and has already sold over 300,000 candy bars in the first 36-hours of their release. 5:35pm- According to reports, author R.L. Stine intends to edit his “Goosebump” books to have more inclusive language. 5:40pm- Comedian Chris Rock addressed Will Smith's 2022 Oscars slap during a live Netflix stand-up special on Saturday. 6:05pm- A New York Times opinion editorial by David Wallace-Wells theorizes that “we've been talking about the lab-leak hypothesis all wrong.” Wallace-Wells writes, “if you had been told, back in 2019, that this would be the state of knowledge in 2023, would it not seem extremely weird to you that there has not been a broad public conversation about the wisdom of potentially dangerous virological research in the meantime? That so much more oxygen had been eaten up by partisan theater than by public debate over the policy implications of such a possibility?... The boundaries of mainstream discourse have suggested that we should resolve the matter of pandemic origins before moving on to the implications of the lab-leak hypothesis. But this has proved a paralyzing standard.” You can read the editorial here: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/28/opinion/lab-leak-energy-department-covid.html 6:30pm- A New York Times opinion-columnist says he can no longer enjoy McDonald's because his socio-economic status has changed after attending Yale—and, consequently, fast food is now beneath him. 6:45pm- Russell Brand accuses MSNBC of bias while on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher. FLASHBACK: MSNBC's greatest lies!

e can probably all agree that any false positive test result is bad, but I think it's safe to say that some false positives, like a false positive HIV test for example, is much more anxiety provoking than others. And when it comes to HIV, there have been a number of key advances in the field over the past decade, include the development of improved diagnostics and optimized algorithmic approaches, all of which have allowed for earlier detection of infected patients, and particularly those with acute HIV. Among these advancements has been the development of 4th and 5th generation serologic assays, which offer multiple benefits over prior assay versions, but unfortunately, are not immune to the possibility of false positive results. So, confirmatory test remain a necessary – the challenge though is that depending on the institution and environment, the turnaround time for such confirmatory testing can be prolonged, leaving patients and clinicians in a kind of diagnostic limbo. So, is there a way to minimize the risk of false positive first-tier HIV serologic results? And that is the question will be the focus of our discussion today.

A third of all American workers are over the age of 50. But as much as the broader workforce is aging, the federal workforce is surpassing it, with more than 43 percent of federal employees over the age of 50. The retirement wave that hangs over the federal workforce has been slow going, but attrition without replacing those workers with younger workers means a loss of institutional knowledge, professional experience and, ultimately, mission delivery.  Anthony Fauci spent more than 50 years in government service, including as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and Max Stier is the president and CEO of the nonpartisan nonprofit, Partnership for Public Service. They are co-authors of a Washington Post op-ed headlined  “The federal workforce is aging. It's time for a new generation.” They joined the podcast to talk about how to recruit more young people into government service. *** Follow GovExec on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/government-executive
