Podcasts about Influenza

Researchers at Saint Louis University are seeking volunteers for 10-day stays at “Hotel Influenza,” the nickname for an unusual testing facility run by Saint Louis University. The facility is designed to give researchers a rare, controlled look at how viruses affect the human body. Participants will be getting paid close to $3,500 to be infected with a strain of influenza. Dr. Daniel Hoft, director of SLU's Vaccine Center and principal investigator of an upcoming study, explains how the study will be conducted and the operation of SLU's Extended Stay Research Unit.

In his weekly clinical update, Dr. Griffin with Vincent Racaniello debate the changes in FDA vaccine approval policy especially how it is applied to COVID-19 vaccines and restricts vaccine availability/usage and Novavax's vaccine, mpox on surfaces and in the air, “bird flu”, the ongoing measles outbreak globally before Dr. Griffin reviews recent statistics on RSV, benefits of vaccination for infants, influenza and SARS-CoV-2 infections, the Wasterwater Scan dashboard, the high number of childhood deaths during this “flu” season, the May 22 VRBPAC COVID-19 vaccine meeting, where to find PEMGARDA, prolonged steroid and antibiotic therapies, provides information for Columbia University Irving Medical Center's long COVID treatment center, where to go for answers to your long COVID questions, cognitive impairment in long COVID and contacting your federal government representative to stop the assault on science and biomedical research.

Influenza en Costa Rica.

Influenza season is upon us and an expert in contagious diseases says it's a good time to book your booster shots. Epidemiologist Professor Michael Baker spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Caratteristiche, sintomi e morti dell'influenza spagnola. Storia della febbre spagnola che tra il 1918 e il 1920 uccise decine di milioni di persone.

Com a queda das temperaturas pelo país, durante o outono e inverno, os casos de Síndrome Respiratória Aguda Grave (SRAG) aumentam. Provocada por infecções virais graves, como Covid-19, Influenza e o vírus sincicial respiratório (VSR), a SRAG costuma exigir internação hospitalar devido a gravidade dos sintomas, que incluem a baixa oxigenação.Para analisar a situação de cada Estado brasileiro, a Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (Fiocruz) monitora semanalmente a incidência dos casos, através do boletim InfoGripe. Até a última semana, os dados apontam para um cenário que preocupa: embora a incidência de VSR em crianças pequenas tenha começado a cair em alguns locais, os números ainda permanecem elevados, principalmente para adultos e idosos. Em entrevista à CBN Vitória, a pesquisadora da Fiocruz Tatiana Portella detalha os dados e reforça a importância da vacinação para prevenção de todos.

After a record number of flu cases last year in Australia, experts are warning all Australians of the need to get the latest updated annual vaccine - as well as adopt other hygiene measures to reduce their risk. So far this year, 63,000 cases of influenza have been recorded nationally, and experts say it's already a relatively high number for this time of year - the start of the flu season. But whether this year will be a severe flu season depends on a number of factors. - После рекордного количества случаев гриппа в Австралии в прошлом году эксперты предупреждают австралийцев о необходимости сделать новую прививку, а также принять другие меры для снижения риска. В этом году в стране зарегистрировано 63 000 случаев гриппа, и эксперты говорят, что это уже относительно высокое число для этого времени года — начала сезона гриппа. Но будет ли этот год тяжелым сезоном гриппа, зависит от ряда факторов.

ME/CFS (Myalgische Enzephalomyelitis / Chronisches Fatigue Syndrom) ist eine schwere körperliche Multisystemerkrankung. Ihr Auslöser sind nicht nur, aber vor allem bakterielle oder virale Infekte, wie etwa Covid-19 oder eine Influenza. Das Hauptsymptom, mit dem sich ME/CFS sich von anderen Krankheiten mit Fatigue abgrenzt, ist die „Post Excertional Malaise“, kurz PEM. PEM ist eine Belastungsintoleranz, die eine Zustandsverschlechterung von vielen Symptomen gleichzeitig bereits nach geringer körperlicher oder kognitiver Belastung verursacht. Diese Verschlechterung tritt meist etwas zeitverzögert auf und kann beliebig lang anhalten, auch eine permanente Verschlechterung ist möglich. Die Liste der weiteren Symptome ist lang und enthält unter anderem Schlafstörungen, Kreislaufregulationsstörungen, dauerhaft grippeähnliche Symptome oder Gelenkschmerzen. Die Symptome variieren von Patient*in und Patient*in, gemein haben sie eine hohe Krankheitslast: 60 Prozent der Personen mit ME/CFS sind nicht arbeitsfähig, 25 Prozent sind ans Haus oder Bett gebunden, viele davon pflegebedürftig.  mosaik hat sich mit Sandra und Dini getroffen, die beide nach einer Corona-Erkrankung an ME/CFS erkrankt sind, woraufhin sich ihr Leben schlagartig änderte. Im Gespräch, das wir aufgrund der damit verbundenen Anstrengung in mehrere Etappen aufgeteilt haben, berichten sie davon, wie das neoliberale Gesundheits- und Sozialsystem Österreichs sie in den letzten Jahren nicht nur ignoriert, sondern aktiv abweist, aber auch davon, wie Betroffene sich solidarisch zusammenschließen.  Ein Nachtrag: Kurze Zeit nach unserer Aufnahme hat das Nationale Referenzzentrum für postvirale Syndrome neue Schätzungen für Betroffenenzahlen in Österreich herausgegeben. Stand jetzt geht man von einer Gesamtzahl von 73.586  ME/CFS-Erkrankten hierzulande aus, was 0,8 Prozent der Bevölkerung entspricht.  - - Foto: Lea Aring / Deutsche Gesellschaft für ME/CFS

In this episode, Dr. Jessica Steier and Dr. Sarah Scheinman welcome Dr. Paul Offit to discuss the evolution of COVID-19 from pandemic to endemic status, the challenges of misinformation and public health messaging, and the importance of rebuilding trust in science. The scientists explore the challenges of effective public health communication amid widespread misinformation, examining how trust in scientific institutions has been affected. Dr. Offit shares insights on mRNA vaccine technology and addresses the evidence surrounding SARS-CoV-2's origins, emphasizing the scientific consensus supporting natural emergence rather than laboratory origin.

Association Between COVID-19 Vaccination and Atrial Arrhythmias in Individuals with Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices   Guest: Malini Madhavan, M.B.B.S. Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D.   In a study of over 7000 individuals with a cardiac implanted device in the Biotronik CERTITUDE registry, the burden of device detected AF was noted to be higher in the 3 months after covid vaccination compared to the 3 months preceding vaccination. A similar trend was observed for Influenza vaccinated individuals. However, when comparing a propensity matched group of controls without COVID vaccination, the trend towards increased burden of AF was similar in the 2 groups. This led the authors to conclude that the observed increase in AF burden represents the natural progression of AF risk rather than vaccine related changes.   Topics Discussed: The study of atrial fibrillation burden after COVID vaccination, including the conclusion. How the incidence of AF after COVID 19 vaccination compares to that after influenza vaccination. Other studies that have investigated arrhythmia occurrence after COVID vaccination. Safety for patients with cardiovascular disease to get vaccinated for COVID 19.

Today we’re talking about bird flu. It’s infecting flocks of chickens, causing egg prices to rise across the country, plus herds of dairy cattle and people are getting sick too. And all of this is happening amid sweeping changes at U.S. federal health agencies. The Trump administration has ordered mass firings and limits on public communications at agencies including the Centers for Disease Control, hindering its ability to keep the public informed. On the show today,  Jessica Malaty Rivera, an epidemiologist and science communicator explains the scale of the current bird flu outbreak, how the response in the United States has been disrupted by chaos in the federal government, and why state health systems may struggle to fill the gaps after years of underfunding. Plus, for one listener, doing something is better than nothing. And, another listener shares how they changed their mind about the value of government work. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Urgent CDC Data and Analyses on Influenza and Bird Flu Go Missing as Outbreaks Escalate” from KFF Health News “Mass firings at HHS: Thousands impacted across federal health agencies including CMS, FDA” from Fierce Healthcare “RFK Jr. confirmed, elevating anti-vaccine activist to nation's top health post” from The Washington Post “How Trump's Medical Research Cuts Would Hit Colleges and Hospitals in Every State” from The New York Times “The U.S. and the WHO: An Imperfect but Essential Relationship” from Johns Hopkins What’s something you thought you knew but later found out you were wrong about?
