Podcasts about Influenza

Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DQdjEezCeTe/With all the confusion and lack of credible information coming from the usual public health channels, I want to arm all you parents and grandparents with the latest immunization recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics.  These guidelines are all based on the latest scientific information which demonstrates that these vaccines are safe and very, very effective at preventing and/or minimizing the effects of sometimes deadly childhood diseases. Now let's review, by months and years, the AAP immunization blueprint. At Birth: The RSV protective antibody nirsevimab up to 6 mos if mom not vaccinated in pregnancy up to 6 mos; 1st dose of Hepatitis B vax. 1 month: Hep B, 2nd dose, to 2 mo.2 months: Rotavirus- RV1 Vax, 2 doses; RV5 Vax, 3 doses, 1st dose; DTaP (Diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis); Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b); Pneumococcal; Inactivated Poliovirus4 months: RV1, RV5, 2nd dose; DTaP, Hib, Pneumococcal, Inact Poliovirus, 2nd doses6 months: Hep B, 3rd dose to 18 mo; RV5, 3rd dose; DTaP, 3rd dose; Hib, 3rd dose to 12 mo; Pneumococcal, 3rd dose; Inact Poliovirus, 3rd dose to 18 mo; CoVid, 1 or more doses to 18 yrs; Influenza, 1-2 doses/yr to 6 yrs12 months: Hib, 3rd or 4th dose to 15 mo; Pneumococcal, 4th dose To 15 mo; MMR; Varicella; Hepatitis A, 3 dose series, to 23 mo15 months: DTaP, 4th dose to 18 mo4-6 yrs: DTaP, 5th dose; Inact Poliovirus, 4th dose; MMR, 2nd dose; Varicella, 2nd dose7-10 yrs: HPV, 2 dose series to 12 yrs11-12 yrs: DTap, 6th dose; Meningococcal, 1st dose of 2, second at l6 yrsThese are the vaccines that every child should receive beginning at birth and extending over the first 18 years of life. Look at this as a scorecard for you to follow along with your pediatric team. These days, so many of our families are so mobile, vaccination records may be scattered and not up to date in any single medical record, electronic or otherwise. Your own checklist, either on paper or digital, should be the most complete.I have posted the American Academy of Pediatrics summary chart of all pediatric immunizations on my website at drhowardsmith.com/pediatric-immunizations-2025-6.Summary chart: https://www.drhowardsmith.com/pediatric-immunizations-2025-6AAP guidelines: https://tinyurl.com/467f5c9b#pediatrics #immunizations #vaccines #aap

Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DQdknrnjVnr/For nearly the first time in the history of American public health, there is mass confusion and lack of credible information coming from our usual public health channels about which vaccines adults should receive. I want to arm all of you you with the latest immunization recommendations from the American Academy of Family Physicians and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.  These guidelines are all based on the latest scientific information which demonstrates that these vaccines are safe and very, very effective at preventing and/or minimizing the effects of sometimes deadly diseases. For Pregnant Women since you are immunizing for yourself and your new baby:TDap, in 3rd trimester; Influenza, anytime during flu season; CoVid, anytime; RSV, late 3rd trimester during RSV season.Adults, 18 through 64 year of age: Td/TDap, every 10 years; MMR, if not immune, 1-2 doses; Varicella, if not immune; HPV, through age 26 or 45 if never immunized; Influenza, annually late October; CoVid, 2-3 times a year with latest vaccines; Hepatitis A/B, as needed for travel or chronic illness; Meningitis, as needed for high risk, travel, outbreak, complement deficiency; Pneumococcal, if never immunized, high risk, immunodeficient; RSV,  if never immunized, high risk, immunodeficient.Seniors, 65 years and older: Influenza, yearly, high dose or adjuvated; CoVid: high potency mNEXSPIKE (Moderna) or equivalent Twice yearly, regular potency 2-3 times a year; RSV, single dose ? Every 2 years; Pneumococcal, PCV20 or PCV15+PCV23; Shingles, RZV or Shingrix, 2 dose series at 50 years or more, 19 years or more if immunocompromised; TDap, every 10 years.These are the vaccines that each of us should have. Look at this as a scorecard for you to follow along with your medical team. These days, so many of us are mobile, vaccination records may be scattered and not up to date in any single medical record, electronic or otherwise. Your own checklist, digital or paper, should be the most complete. When you do get a vaccine, let's say at your local pharmacy, be certain to text or email your medical team so that the information can be added to your electronic medical record.I have posted the American Academy of Family Physicians summary chart of all adult immunizations on my website at drhowardsmith.com/adult-immunizations-2025-6.https://www.aafp.org/family-physician/patient-care/prevention-wellness/immunizations-vaccines/immunization-schedules/adult-immunization-schedule.htmlhttps://www.drhowardsmith.com/adult-immunizations-2025-6#adults #pregnancy #seniors #immunizations #vaccines

El departamento de Agricultura, Ganadería y Alimentación del Gobierno de Aragón ha dictado una resolución por la que se adoptan medidas sanitarias de salvaguardia con el objetivo de prevenir la introducción y propagación de la influenza aviar altamente patógena en Aragón. El Gobierno de Aragón irá "ajustando" las medidas contra la gripe aviar en función de la evolución de la enfermedad, según ha avanzado este martes el consejero, Javier Rincón, quien ha señalado que la principal medida es el confinamiento de las aves. Los agricultores de Cutanda se reunían esta mañana con el director general de Desarrollo Rural para expresarle su malestar por la demora que arrastra el proceso de concentración parcelaria en esta pedanía de Calamocha, solicitado hace ya 16 años. El proyecto Previnovic busca sensibilizar al sector ovino y caprino y a la sociedad en general sobre la importancia de la presencia de pequeños rumiantes en el control del crecimiento vegetal y su impacto en la prevención de incendios.

A Secretaria de Estado da Saúde (Sesa) está testando mais de 300 patógenos, entre vírus, fungos e bactérias para descobrir a origem do surto de contaminação registrado no Hospital Santa Rita, em Vitória. As investigações realizadas pela pasta até o momento já descartaram que as infecções possam ter sido causadas por vírus da Covid e da Influenza A e B (gripe). Em entrevista à CBN VItória, na manhã desta segunda-feira (27), o secretário de Estado da Saúde, Tyago Hoffman, disse acreditar que a contaminação pode estar ligada a uma causa ambiental, como água, comida ou filtro de ar-condicionado na ala frequentada pelos profissionais contaminados. Amostras diversas coletadas do hospital seguem em análise no Laboratório Central/ES e na Fiocruz. Resultado devem sair até esta sexta (31).Segundo o Secretário de Estado da Saúde, Tyago Hoffmann, o número de funcionários contaminados internados caiu de 8 para 6. Nenhum paciente que já estava em tratamento na unidade foi infectado, mas 12 acompanhantes apresentaram sintomas e estão internados em hospitais da Grande Vitória.

In his weekly clinical update, Dr. Griffin with Vincent Racaniello are distressed by the continuing government shutdown, first locally acquired chikungunya virus infection, President Trump's suggestion for removing aluminum from vaccines, H5N1 isolation from backyard birds and turkey farms, and the suggestion of establishing an alternative to the CDC's MMWR and asymptomatic measles infections before Dr. Griffin deep dives into recent statistics on the measles epidemic, RSV, influenza and SARS-CoV-2 infections, the Wasterwater Scan dashboard, Johns Hopkins measles tracker, the quarantining in the US due to measles, access to anti-influenza antiviral, where to find PEMGARDA, how to access and pay for Paxlovid, can you be retreated with Paxlovid, long COVID treatment center, where to go for answers to your long COVID questions, if colchicine is effective for long COVID, and contacting your federal government representative to stop the assault on science and biomedical research.

Over-the-counter (OTC) pain and fever medications are widely used despite having marginal efficacy and significant side effects that hospitalize hundreds of thousands of Americans each year While a widespread practice, using these medications to reduce fevers has long been controversial, both due to their toxicity and the notion that fevers are essential for health During the 1918 Influenza pandemic, one of the most critical lessons was that avoiding fever suppression was vital for protecting patients from dying While considered the “safest” option, Tylenol has a wide range of issues, including liver damage, gastrointestinal issues, blood cancers, and kidney injuries An extensive body of data connects using Tylenol during pregnancy or in infancy to the development of neurological injuries (e.g., autism). Many of these tragic cases illustrate a longstanding observation within natural medicine — suppressing superficial reactions (e.g., fevers) can transform illnesses into chronic ailments that can cause far more issues

Listen to today's podcast... Children have been back to school now for a month and we're starting to see the rise of colds and other ailments, both in our children and in our workplaces. Though these are not usually cases of influenza, it is a reminder that the true flu season is just around the corner, and that we need to protect our families and our co-workers. Influenza is an infection of the nose throat and lungs caused by the influenza virus. For most people the flu is uncomfortable, tiring, and can keep you bedridden for many days. But for some, the flu can be serious. Each year the flu causes many unnecessary deaths. The most common way the flu is spread is through flu germs on people's hands. If you touch something with the flu germs on it, then touch your face or mouth, you could get infected. Flu germs can also travel through the air. If a person with the flu sneezes, or coughs, their spray can carry the virus to your nose, mouth, and our eyes. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      Today's Tip For Building Resiliency And Celebrating Flu Prevention Month: Wash your hands often and consider getting the flu shot. For some the flu shot is the best defense. For more information, check me out on twitter at SOS To Stress. #mentalhealth #hr

Ernæringsvejleder Ninni Kjær har aldrig oplevet kærlighed på den måde, hun gør, da hun møder kæresten Anders, som vi kender fra instagramprofilen @andershemmingsendk. Anders bliver Ninnis første kæreste og da parret står over for at skulle i fertilitetsbehandling tager Ninni skeen i egen hånd i ventetiden. Hun forsøger gennem livsstilsændringer - med sit store kendskab til sundhed - at forberede sin krop så optimalt som muligt på at blive gravid. Og kort tid efter står hun med en positiv test i hånden. Trods kvalme og humørsvingninger har Ninni en ukompliceret og god graviditet. Men da terminen nærmer sig, bliver Ninni lagt ned af influenza, der sender hende ind og ud af hospitalet. Ninnis fødsel går spontant i gang og har fuld fart på. Og stolt og udmattet efter sit sygdomsforløb - står hun 9 timer efter sin første ve - med lille Helmut i armene.    Episoden er sponsoreret af Änglamark

Ja, hallöchen! Für mich war's heute Morgen. Ich hab's langsamer angehen lassen, meine Influenza auskuriert, ein bisschen ist noch da. Was für ein Wochenende! Erst Berlin, dann Hamburg – Maga stark! So viele Begegnungen, so viel genetzwerkt – einfach großartig. Tausend Dank für die vielen Glückwünsche und Geschenke – ich war wirklich überwältigt! Ich habe sie noch nicht alle geöffnet, aber das hat nichts mit Despektierlichkeit zu tun – ich nehme mir die Tage Zeit dafür. Gestern Abend bin ich einfach ins Bett gefallen. Der Zug hatte Verspätung, dann Rückfahrt nach Bad Dürkheim – da ging einfach nichts mehr. Jetzt geht's zum Osteopathen. Warum? Weil du deinen Körper nicht nur fordern, sondern auch etwas zurückgeben musst. Und bevor jetzt jemand sagt: „Siehst du, hast ja Influenza bekommen“ – ich kenne genug Leute, die fordern ihren Körper gar nicht und werden trotzdem krank. Es ist okay. Ich hab's angenommen und bin dankbar, dass es mir heute besser geht. Sonntagnacht ging's los – Schüttelfrost und das volle Programm. Was macht man da? Hinlegen und auf morgen freuen. Ich bin kein Fan von Chemie, aber ich sag's ehrlich: Gott sei Dank gibt es Ibuprofen. Nach 66 Jahren kenne ich meinen Körper. Ich weiß, was er braucht – und was nicht. Früh aufstehen ist nicht meins. Wenn Veranstaltungen um neun Uhr starten und du um sieben schon im Shuttle sitzt... puh. Aber okay, es gehört dazu. Ich hab unglaublich viel mitgenommen: Erkenntnisse, To-do-Listen, KVP-Listen. Und dann kommt der Moment: „Das wolltest du auch schon machen... hast du aber noch nicht angefangen.“ Wird höchste Zeit. Ich schreibe oder diktiere direkt ans Team – damit es sofort umgesetzt wird. So ist übrigens auch der Podcast entstanden. Hat nur fünf Jahre gedauert, bis ich gemerkt hab: Ich brauch das. Und dann kam KI. „Brauche ich nicht“, hab ich gedacht. „Neumodischer Quark aus den USA.“ Aber dann war ich beim Schindler Circle – ein Mathematikprofessor sagte: „Beschäftigt euch täglich 30 Minuten mit KI – es verändert eure Welt.“ Beim ersten Mal dachte ich: bla bla. Mittlerweile: fester Bestandteil. Auch im Team. Lernen, umsetzen, lernen, ein Leben lang. Motivation von außen bringt nichts. Du brauchst intrinsische Motivation – die von innen kommt. Dann verändern sich Dinge. Und zwar nachhaltig. Heute Abend: TV-Erfolgssendung, 22 Uhr. Mit Milena Kostic, der Top-Therapeutin für die schwierigen Fälle. Und Tibor Bauer, Mr. Schufa – Hammer Typ mit Hunderttausenden Followern. Abschließend: Danke für die vielen Geburtstagswünsche – ich melde mich. Danke an die großartigen Menschen in Berlin und Hamburg – es war inspirierend. Danke an Dirk Kreuter und Team für die Mega Organisation. Danke an Bernhard Schindler für den Schindler Circle und das Matchforum. Danke an sein Team. Und danke an dich, dass du hier dabei bist, kommentierst, zuhörst.

L'autunno ci regala colori meravigliosi, ma anche i primi starnuti. Inizia la stagione dei malanni e tra raffreddori, tosse e mal di gola si affaccia anche l'influenza vera e propria e il Covid. Ma come distinguerla? E soprattutto: cosa possiamo fare per affrontarla al meglio, proteggendo noi stessi e chi ci sta intorno? Ne parliamo a Obiettivo Salute risveglio con il professor Massimo Ciccozzi, epidemiologo del Campus Bio-Medico di Roma.

Flu season is around the corner and we should take a look at the virus for preparation purposes. Influenza Every few years, I revisit this virus in my writing, not only to keep it on your radar in preparation, but also because of the significant illness and death it continues to cause. It's never wise to dismiss its potential impact. Influenza reliably returns each year, difficult to escape even with strict isolation. The flu is different from the common cold in many ways as the flu has: 1) Rapid onset with high spiking fevers 2) Muscle and headaches 3) Little to not sneezing and sore throat 4) Rapid and robust cough onset Influenza season is beginning in the United States this fall. Who gets sick? In short, people of all ages. Seasonal influenza has a reproductive rate of just over one, meaning that each infected person typically spreads the virus to one or two others through coughing or sneezing in close proximity. The virus also survives on surfaces for up to 24 hours, creating another common route of transmission, especially in children. Young kids frequently touch surfaces and each other, then touch their faces, providing the perfect pathway for infection. Because of this, schools remain a major hub for flu transmission across the country. Preventing the virus from taking root in your body is the key to avoiding a bad outcome. Things that I think of as critical to avoiding or preventing this infection: 1) Keeping your vitamin D level greater than 50 ng/ml is an important way to prevent influenza infections. Get tested and supplement accordingly. As always the sun is your natural route to normal D levels 2) Get adequate sleep based on your age to keep your immune system in great shape. Sleep is very important for immune health...... and more on asthma driving mental health issues. Dr. M

CDC approves new immunization schedule; new treatments approved for edema, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and high risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma; and the FDA grants Breakthrough therapy designation to a novel influenza therapy.

In questo articolo parliamo di un argomento che mi sta particolarmente a cuore: gli errori più comuni che sento fare spesso da chi studia l'italiano. E sapete una cosa? Anche molti italiani madrelingua cadono in questi tranelli! È arrivato il momento di sistemarli una volta per tutte. Preparate carta e penna per prendere appunti: perché stiamo per analizzare i 5 errori che potrebbero farvi sembrare un po' meno fluenti di quello che siete davvero! Scopriamoli insieme e impariamo come evitarli definitivamente. Non commettere più questi 5 ERRORI IN ITALIANO! Errore #1: "FA SENSO" - L'Influenza dell'Inglese ❌ SBAGLIATO: "Questo fa senso"✅ CORRETTO: "Questo ha senso" Perché è sbagliato? La confusione nasce dall'influenza dell'inglese "it makes sense". Molti studenti traducono letteralmente questa espressione, ma in italiano il verbo corretto è AVERE: "avere senso", che significa essere logico, ragionevole, comprensibile. Esempi corretti nell'uso quotidiano: "La tua spiegazione ha senso, ora capisco meglio" "Non ha senso arrabbiarsi per così poco" "Ha senso partire presto per evitare il traffico" "Il suo discorso non ha alcun senso" Curiosità linguistica importante: "Fare senso" in italiano esiste, ma significa "disgustare", "provocare nausea". Quindi se dite "questo cibo fa senso", state dicendo che vi fa schifo! Non proprio quello che volevate esprimere, vero? Questa differenza è cruciale per evitare malintesi imbarazzanti. Altri esempi con "fare senso" (nel significato corretto): "Quell'odore mi fa senso" (mi disgusta) "Non riesco a guardare quel film dell'horror, mi fa troppo senso" Errore #2: "GUIDO/VOLO/CAMMINO A CASA" - La Questione del Focus ❌ SBAGLIATO: "Guido a casa", "Volo a Roma", "Cammino al lavoro"✅ CORRETTO: "Vado a casa in macchina", "Vado a Roma in aereo", "Vado al lavoro a piedi" Perché è problematico? I verbi GUIDARE, VOLARE e CAMMINARE mettono l'enfasi sull'azione stessa (cosa sto facendo), a differenza di verbi come ANDARE, TORNARE, PARTIRE, che mettono l'enfasi sulla destinazione (quale luogo devo raggiungere). Dal punto di vista grammaticale queste espressioni sono tecnicamente accettabili, ma dal punto di vista semantico e dell'uso naturale della lingua, suonano innaturali agli orecchi di un madrelingua italiano. La regola pratica: Quando il focus è sulla destinazione: "Vado/Torno/Parto + destinazione + mezzo di trasporto" Quando il focus è sull'azione: "Guido/Cammino/Volo + complemento di tempo/modo/compagnia" Esempi corretti con focus sulla destinazione: "Vado a casa in macchina" (invece di "Guido a casa") "Torno in ufficio a piedi" (invece di "Cammino in ufficio") "Parto per Milano in aereo" (invece di "Volo a Milano") Esempi corretti con focus sull'azione: "Guido da tre ore senza sosta" "Cammino ogni mattina per mantenermi in forma" "Volo spesso per lavoro" Errore #3: "FORSE TU ABBIA RAGIONE" - Il Congiuntivo Mal Utilizzato ❌ SBAGLIATO: "Forse tu abbia ragione", "Probabilmente lui sia arrivato"✅ CORRETTO: "Forse tu hai ragione", "Probabilmente lui è arrivato" Perché è sbagliato? "Forse" è un avverbio di dubbio, ma non richiede il congiuntivo perché il congiuntivo si usa solo dopo espressioni che contengono un verbo principale (credo che, penso che, è possibile che, può darsi che...). La regola d'oro per non sbagliare mai: FORSE/PROBABILMENTE/SECONDO ME + INDICATIVO: "Forse piove domani", "Probabilmente arriva tardi" ESPRESSIONI DI DUBBIO (con verbi) + CONGIUNTIVO: "Può darsi che piova", "È possibile che tu abbia ragione", "Credo che sia giusto" Altri esempi corretti con avverbi: "Forse Maria arriva tardi" "Probabilmente hanno sbagliato strada" "Forse è meglio aspettare" "Secondo me dovremmo partire ora" Esempi corretti con espressioni verbali: "È probabile che Maria arrivi tardi" "Può darsi che abbiano sbagliato strada"

Despite being only 40-60% effective, the vaccine significantly reduces hospitalizations, outpatient visits, and deaths while protecting vulnerable populations who cannot be vaccinated.• Influenza causes 9-41 million illnesses, 140,000-960,000 hospitalizations, and 12,000-80,000 deaths annually in the US• Everyone aged six months and older should receive the flu vaccine yearly• The vaccine must be updated annually because the flu virus changes each year• Getting vaccinated helps protect vulnerable populations like infants and immunocompromised individuals• Common misconception that the vaccine causes flu is false – it cannot give you the flu• Only 40-46% of Americans get the flu vaccine annually despite its proven benefits• The best time to get vaccinated is before flu season begins, but getting it later still helps• Flu vaccination reduces strain on hospitals during peak seasonsGo get your flu shot today!

A Special Agent with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for over 20 years, Ed Newcomer worked in Los Angeles in a variety of international posts before retiring in 2022. During his career, he conducted numerous high-profile international wildlife trafficking investigations involving every continent, including Antarctica, and is known for bringing down some of our planet's most notorious wildlife criminals. He is a recipient of the Humane Law Enforcement Award from the Humane Society of the United States and holds a record six Law Enforcement Awards from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles. Listeners can learn more about Ed Newcomer on his podcast - Nature’s Secret Service, and on LinkedIn @EdNewcomer In February 2004, an Idaho hiking trail became a deadly crime scene when 58 elk-meat “meatballs” laced with a lethal pesticide were scattered in a known wolf habitat. The suspect’s goal? Kill endangered gray wolves. What followed was an extraordinary, boots-in-the-snow investigation involving forensics, environmental science, and sheer tenacity. In this episode of Zone 7, Crime Scene Investigator, Sheryl McCollum, and Ed Newcomer, a retired special agent with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, walk us through the forensic lab breakthroughs that tied the poison, the elk meat, and even a suspect’s boots directly to the scene. Along the way, you'll hear how a rookie game warden’s decision to bag “yellow snow” ended up sealing the case. If you’re heading to CrimeCon, don't miss Sheryl and Ed on the main stage for Creator’s Row. They’ll be covering another unbelievable wildlife crime case live and in person. Y’all are gonna want a front-row seat!
