Nos últimos anos, surtos de contaminação com o vírus H5N1 vem se espalhando pelo globo, e se aproximando cada vez mais do Brasil. O país, que nunca registrou sinais de gripe aviária em granjas, identificou dois casos em aves silvestres no Espírito Santo; desde então, novos focos apareceram. São 13 até agora - além do Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro e Rio Grande do Sul também têm casos. Para mensurar o risco que a doença oferece, Natuza Nery fala com Paula Salati, repórter de agro do g1, e com o economista Fernando Henrique Iglesias, analista e consultora da Safras & Mercado. Neste episódio: - Paula explica as características do vírus H5N1, um subtipo do Influenza que afeta predominantemente as aves. Ele foi detectado pela primeira vez em 1996, na China, onde também foi registrado o primeiro contágio humano – nos últimos anos, tem se disseminado pelas Américas. “É um vírus que se espalha rapidamente e tem alta taxa de mortalidade”, afirma; - A jornalista justifica a decisão do Ministério da Agricultura de decretar estado de emergência zoossanitária: “A principal preocupação é evitar que a gripe chegue às granjas”. Caso haja contaminação nos produtores dedicados ao comércio de carnes e ovos, é preciso sacrificar todas as aves, explica; - Fernando dimensiona o tamanho do mercado de aves no Brasil: segundo maior produtor do mundo, maior exportador e prevê a produção de 15 milhões de toneladas de carne de frango até o fim do ano. E ressalta que, embora “o Brasil siga os mais rigorosos protocolos sanitários animais”, o mercado pode sofrer um baque caso a gripe chegue às granjas comerciais; - Ele também comenta o impacto da crise zoossanitária na Europa e nos Estados Unidos, onde houve desabastecimento e boom inflacionário na comercialização de ovos. No Brasil, avalia, “será preciso ter um descontrole muito grande” para que a inflação geral de preços seja pressionada.

Episode #065 Amid the laughter and humor, that has not changed since they were last heard from before the Holidays. Our hosts discuss where they have been and why they have been gone for so very long. Right when Thanksgiving hit, they were preparing for the Holiday break, cooking, baking, Christmas shopping and mailing out gifts and baked goods. And then came black Friday or possibly the black plague for the two of them. They both went down with covid, Patrick added the flu, Influenza type A. Janet added Bronchitis to hers. This is when they discovered what people do not advertise or talk about. Anything that has ever gone wrong with you will rear its head again after covid hits you. So, the Holidays were exciting in an all new way for them this year and baking and dinner went out the door.With the time on their hands, they began talking more about where to take this podcast to, going on year 4. It began as trucking, then they tried expanding it for a while. Which simply put, was ok, but not where their hearts are at. So, they both decided the only way to go was back to their roots, yep, Trucking. However, this time they chose to do more research prior to recording anything. As well as finding a way to help others while they still talk about trucking.Those thoughts being said aloud, they began with notes, lots of notes. Enough for about 70 or more episodes! Beginning to seasoned veteran drivers, they desire to help all of them. And with the direction they are headed, and the notes they have, it is very likely that they will.From learning about the new ways and listening to the old ways and the stories of how things used to be. The good and the bad on both, then this is the Trucking Podcast for you. 40+ years' experience and hauled just about everything between them.

Influencers often inspire or guide the actions of others by posting about something (such as a consumer product or service) that they use or endorse based on brand partnerships. And today's episode is a sure shot response to Sue Duffield's recent "Effector" award of Top Influencer, but what she initially read was "Influenza!" The most all-inclusive definition of an influencer is a person who has the ability to influence others. So, a politician making a speech, a business expert leading a seminar, and a celebrity endorsing a product are all technically influencers, and yes even pastors, singers and keynote speakers. An infectious personality, like Sue, may know a lot, but an individual still needs the ability to advocate, sell and drum up enthusiasm. Influencers normally have high engagement rates with their audience (in person or on-line), taking on a hands-on approach with their people, showing great care, and always looking to serve their needs to better understand them. So, just how important is it to be an effective influencer for the Kingdom's sake? Everything. Let Jesus shine SO much in your life that you're infectious and that you get reports of your influence - from all generations. www.sueduffield.com

Today, Debbie re-runs the single most popular of 100+ episodes of [B]OLDER. Exactly two years ago, in the spring of 2021, she asked plague expert Nicholas Christakis, a distinguished Yale professor and author,  the burning question: when will the COVID-19 pandemic end? His answer: 2024. It startled her and burst her bubble of optimism. Vaccines were widely available by then and it seemed like the beginning of the end. Surely he was exaggerating how long it would take for the COVID pandemic to wind down? No, it was only the end of the beginning, he told her.Today that makes sense. And of course, it was prescient.Tune into a re-run of one of the most fascinating episodes of [B]OLDER. (Note that Debbie refers to it as The Gap Year Podcast, the name she gave the podcast during the height of the pandemic. It's now the [B]OLDER podcast. Same podcast; different name.) SHOW NOTES from the original interview with Nicholas Christakis (May 7, 2021)Nicholas Christakis, MD, PhD, MPH, and a Sterling Professor at Yale, has been named to TIME magazine's list of the 100 Most Influential People in the World. His fluency in explaining the intertwined science, epidemiology, psychology, sociology and history of pandemics - and his sense of humor - make this a compelling episode. You'll hear why he chose to publish his latest book, Apollo's Arrow, in the fall of 2020, before we knew the end of the story of COVID-19How his childhood experiences with illness and death affected his career choicesWhat the predictable three phases of a pandemic are (in 2021 we were still in the immediate phase)Why he thinks this pandemic won't be over until 2024They also talked about separating the biological vs. the psychological impacts of the pandemicWhat herd immunity actually means and whether we'll get thereAnd what the public health messaging around the pandemic should beDebbie asks him point blank: when is the next pandemic?

God painted His heart for the Nations throughout the pages of His Word, from Genesis to Revelation... If we live our lives, spend our money, eat/drink, exercise, pray, and practice medicine without catching this vision, we're missing out on the greatest masterpiece ever created! We create a false dichotomy of domestic healthcare and that which is international. God doesn't see it this way and neither should we.
