According to Insider Intelligence, 1 in 5 adult Americans cannot afford the lifesaving prescription drugs they need. And according to the American Hospital Association, approximately 3.5 million patients in the U.S. cannot receive the medical care that they need due to the absence of transportation access to their providers. This statistic does not take into account the reality of the lack of medical providers in itself in given communities across the nation. "Underserved populations" are groups who are disenfranchised due to limited or lack of access to resources, especially within the medical sphere (health insurance, presence of healthcare providers, and treatment modalities). Though often interchangeable, "vulnerable populations" often experience additional barriers to care access (not limited to racial and ethnic minorities, the elderly, and the socioeconomically disadvantaged). Truly, we see exacerbated health conditions in patients from underserved and vulnerable communities.We are joined today by Dr. Arunima Bera, a double board-certified pediatric critical care hospitalist physician with a focus on underserved populations in Madera County, California. She received her MD from Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar in 2014, Pediatrics residency at University at Buffalo/John R. Oishei Children's Hospital in 2017, and Pediatric Critical Care Fellowship at UCLA/Mattel Children's Hospital in 2020. In 2019, Dr. Bera won the Young Investigator Research Award from the American College of Chest Physicians, focusing on the clinical outcomes of sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome in pediatric patients. She furthers her research on respiratory illnesses in children, such as bronchiolitis and asthma. Beyond medicine, Dr. Bera devotes herself to the arts through dances and vocal performances hosted by the Indian Embassy in Qatar.Livestream Air Date: October 3, 2022Arunima Bera, MD, FAAP: IG @nimanotes.mdFriends of Franz: IG @friendsoffranzpod & FB @friendsoffranzpodChristian Franz (Host): IG @chrsfranz & YT Christian FranzThankful to the season's brand partners: Clove, BETR Remedies, Eko, Lumify, RescueMD, Medical School for Kids, Your Skincare Expert, Twrl Milk Tea

Alarmed by the closure of a rural hospital earlier this year, California lawmakers on Thursday voted to loan $150 million to struggling medical centers in the hope of preventing a cascade of similar failures across the state. The only hospital in Madera County closed in December, leaving the community of nearly 160,000 people with no medical center within a 30-minute drive. A town once deemed "most hippie" in Washington recently outlawed drug use after a spike in fentanyl overdoses that included the death of a 5-year-old girl. Edwin Williams, a city council member in Bellingham, Washington, said overdoses became so commonplace in his city that one dead body was left on a bench for 12 hours. Governor Newsom says, he has launched his “Campaign for Democracy” to help project California's progressive values into the benighted red states of America, where Republican leaders make their citizens' lives so much worse. President Joe Biden on Monday said the Transportation Department will propose later this year new regulations detailing how and when airlines must provide cash or other compensation and cover expenses for meals, lodging, and rebooking when carriers are responsible for stranding passengers. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Throughout California, hospitals are being forced to reduce services and even shut down.

Long before the pandemic, hospitals and their services were under strain. But throughout the state, some hospitals are now at risk of closing for good, which would leave thousands of Californians without basic access to healthcare. In many rural counties, local community hospitals are the only option for both primary care and life-saving emergency services. The abrupt closure of Madera County's only such hospital is the first in what could become a string of hospital closures, requiring remaining facilities to pick up more patients at a time when staff and resources are stretched thin. We'll talk about this vulnerability in California's healthcare system and what is being done to remedy it.

On this episode of They Walk Among America… Chowchilla was a rural town in Madera County, California. In 1976 the population of the farming community was around 5,000, spread across sprawling acres of land. Most of those living in Chowchilla had been born and raised there, in the Central Valley. The isolated countryside didn't provide much for kids to do during the summer months, so many enrolled in summer school. Dairyland Elementary had been assigned as the location for classes in the summer of 76 and over 125 children signed up to attend. 26 of those pupils would become victims of one of the most notorious mass kidnappings in US history…*** LISTENER DISCRETION IS ADVISED *** ‘They Walk Among America' is a Law & Crime podcast network production.This episode was hosted by Nina Innsted.Researched and written by Eileen Macfarlane.Editing and scoring by Kory Hilpmann.

It’s a Tuesday morning in March and Madeline Harris with the Leadership Counsel for Justice and Accountability is knocking on doors in Fairmead, a small community in Madera County, to let residents know about a mobile vaccine clinic coming to the town that weekend. “We’re just passing out flyers about a mobile vaccine clinic that we’re going to do on Sunday,” Harris says to resident Mary Ann Moor. Harris says residents can register at the clinic but they must prove they work in the food and agriculture industry. Moor says she likes living in Fairmead because it’s quiet. But the community’s location is remote. That means that during the pandemic, it’s been hard to get COVID-19 information from her local health department. She says this is the first time someone has shown up at her doorstep with information about the vaccine. “My daughter is going to go online and make an appointment because I’m disabled I can’t do much,” Moor says.

Armando Celestino walks between rows of grapevines in a Madera County vineyard. He’s handing out small zip lock bags to farm workers filled with hand sanitizer, masks and information on the COVID-19 vaccine. Celestino works with Centro Binancional, a community organization that assists those who speak, indigenous languages like Mixtec and Zapotec. When Celestino hands a bag to Bernadino Cruz, Cruz stops trimming the vines and turns to speak with him. Celestino asks Cruz a series of questions: his name, his age, what languages he speaks, is work going well? Finally, he asks Cruz if he is interested in getting the vaccine. “Well I think yes because well thank god I haven’t gotten COVID, so yes,” Cruz says. Cruz says it’s his first time being approached about the vaccine so he’s not sure what the process entails. Celestino says many farm workers don’t know what to expect. “That’s why we also ask if they’re open to attending a meeting where we can have a specialist talk to them and give

The Madera County Sheriff’s Department declared a local state of emergency Wednesday due to worsening weather conditions. It also issued an evacuation warning for residents above Road 225 and Cascadel Road, near the Creek Fire burn scar area. The county, which previously dealt with the Creek Fire, is now bracing for another potential natural disaster. National Weather Service Meteorologist Scott Row says flood warnings have been placed on Madera county as well as neighboring Fresno and Merced counties. “There’s a potential, again because of the degree of heavy rainfall, that could result in flash flooding and debris flow,” Row said. He said residents can prepare by following law enforcement recommendations and heeding evacuation orders if necessary. “And just be weather ready and weather aware,” he added. “Have a plan in place in case you do have to leave at a moment's notice.” As of Thursday, the Madera County Sheriff’s department had not issued any evacuation orders.

As the first 327,000 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine begin arriving in California, most San Joaquin Valley hospitals expect their initial shipments within the next few days. Some hospitals, however, have already begun receiving them. In a video posted to Twitter, employees of Valley Children’s Hospital applauded next to a freezer set to negative 78 degrees Celsius , the temperature colder than Antarctica’s annual average that’s needed to store the vaccine produced by Pfizer and BioNTech. The Madera County hospital was one of the first to receive the 17,000 doses in this first batch slated for the Valley. Madera County has received 975 doses, of which 535 will remain with Valley Children’s. Fresno County has also received its shipment of 7,800 doses. Bakersfield’s three Dignity Health hospitals are expecting their first doses on Thursday or Friday. In a media call, Dignity Health Central California Chief Medical Officer Dr. Emmal Kothary explained the hospital’s vaccine priority list

UFO Buster Radio Link: https://www.spreaker.com/show/ufo-busters-tracks Are Ghosts Real? — Evidence Has Not Materialized Link: https://www.livescience.com/26697-are-ghosts-real.html If you believe in ghosts, you're not alone. Cultures all around the world believe in spirits that survive death to live in another realm. In fact, ghosts are among the most widely believed of paranormal phenomenon: Millions of people are interested in ghosts, and a 2013 Harris Poll found that 43% of Americans believe in ghosts. (The Harris Poll surveyed 2,250 U.S. adults online from Nov. 13-18. No margin of error was provided. 57 percent of U.S. adult say they believe in the virgin birth of Jesus. Sixty-four percent say they believe in the survival of the soul after death. 36 percent say they believe in UFOs, 29 percent say they believe in astrology, 26 percent say they believe in witches and 24 percent say they believe in reincarnation) People have tried to (or claimed to) communicate with spirits for ages; in Victorian England, for example, it was fashionable for upper-crust ladies to hold séances in their parlors after tea and crumpets with friends. Ghost clubs dedicated to searching for ghostly evidence formed at prestigious universities, including Cambridge and Oxford, and in 1882 the most prominent organization, the Society for Psychical Research, was established. A woman named Eleanor Sidgwick was an investigator (and later president) of that group, and could be considered the original female ghostbuster. In America during the late 1800s, many psychic mediums claimed to speak to the dead — but were later exposed as frauds by skeptical investigators such as Harry Houdini. Personal experience is one thing, but scientific evidence is another matter. Part of the difficulty in investigating ghosts is that there is not one universally agreed-upon definition of what a ghost is. Some believe that they are spirits of the dead who for whatever reason get "lost" on their way to The Other Side; others claim that ghosts are instead telepathic entities projected into the world from our minds. Still others create their own special categories for different types of ghosts, such as poltergeists, residual hauntings, intelligent spirits and shadow people. Of course, it's all made up, like speculating on the different races of fairies or dragons: there are as many types of ghosts as you want there to be. If ghosts are the spirits of those whose deaths were unavenged, why are there unsolved murders, since ghosts are said to communicate with psychic mediums, and should be able to identify their killers for the police. And so on — just about any claim about ghosts raises logical reasons to doubt it. It is widely claimed that Albert Einstein suggested a scientific basis for the reality of ghosts, based on the First Law of Thermodynamics: if energy cannot be created or destroyed but only change form, what happens to our body's energy when we die? Could that somehow be manifested as a ghost? Ultimately, ghost hunting is not about the evidence (if it was, the search would have been abandoned long ago). Instead, it's about having fun with friends, telling stories, and the enjoyment of pretending they are searching the edge of the unknown. After all, everyone loves a good ghost story. Dorothea Helen Puente Dorothea Helen Puente (January 9, 1929 – March 27, 2011) was an American convicted serial killer. In the 1980s, Puente ran a boarding house in Sacramento, California, and murdered her elderly and mentally disabled boarders before cashing their Social Security checks.[1] Her total count reached nine confirmed murders, and six unconfirmed. Newspapers dubbed Puente the "Death House Landlady".[2] Puente was born Dorothea Helen Gray on January 9, 1929, in Redlands, California, to Trudy Mae (née Yates) and Jesse James Gray.[3] She had a traumatic upbringing; her parents were both alcoholics, her mother was a prostitute, and her father attempted suicide in front of her.[4] Her father died of tuberculosis in 1937 when she was 8, and her mother died in a car accident the following year. She was sent to an orphanage,[3] where she was sexually abused.[4] In 1945, Gray was married for the first time, at the age of 16, to a soldier named Fred McFaul, who had just returned from the Pacific Theater of World War II. Gray had two daughters between 1946 and 1948, but she sent one to live with relatives in Sacramento and placed the other child for adoption. She became pregnant again in 1948, but suffered a miscarriage. In late 1948, McFaul left her. Gray was sentenced to a year in jail for forging checks; she was paroled after six months. Soon afterwards, she became pregnant by a man she barely knew and gave birth to a daughter, whom she placed for adoption. In 1952, she married a Swede named Axel Johanson, and had a turbulent 14-year marriage. In the 1960s, Gray was arrested for owning and managing a brothel and was sentenced to 90 days in the Sacramento County Jail. After her release, she was arrested again, this time for vagrancy, and sentenced to another 90 days in jail. Following that, Gray began a criminal career that over time became more serious. She found work as a nurse's aide, caring for disabled and elderly people in private homes. In a short time, she started to manage boarding houses. Gray divorced Johanson in 1966 and married Roberto Puente, a man 19 years her junior, in Mexico City. The marriage lasted two years. Shortly after it ended, Dorothea Puente took over a three-story, 16-bedroom care home at 2100 F Street in Sacramento; she would later rent an upstairs apartment at 1426 F Street. Puente got married for the fourth time in 1976 to Pedro Montalvo, who was a violent alcoholic. This marriage lasted only a few months, and Puente started to spend time in local bars looking for older men who were receiving benefits. Puente forged their signatures to steal their money. She was caught and charged with 34 counts of treasury fraud, for which she received probation. The Murders Link: https://www.crimemuseum.org/crime-library/serial-killers/dorothea-puente/ In April 1982, Puente's friend and business partner, Ruth Monroe, rented a space in an apartment she owned. Shortly after moving in, Monroe died from an overdose of codeine and Tylenol. When she was questioned by police, Puente said that Monroe had become depressed because of her husband's illness. Police officially ruled the death a suicide. Several weeks later, 74-year-old Malcolm McKenzie accused Puente of drugging him and stealing his pension. Puente was charged and convicted of theft in August of that year and was sentenced to five years in jail. When she was serving her sentence, she began a pen-pal relationship with 77-year-old Everson Gillmouth. When she was released in 1985, after serving three years, she opened a joint bank account with Gillmouth. On January 1, 1986, the box was recovered by a fisherman, who called the police. When police arrived and opened the box, they found the decomposed remains of an elderly man- who would not be identified as Everson Gillmouth for another three years. During this time, Puente collected Gillmouth's pension and forged letters to his family. Puente also hired Florez to build a box that was six feet by three feet by two feet, which she stated that she would use to store “books and other items.” She and Florez then travelled to a highway in Sutter County and dumped the box in a riverbank. On January 1, 1986, the box was recovered by a fisherman, who called the police. When police arrived and opened the box, they found the decomposed remains of an elderly man- who would not be identified as Everson Gillmouth for another three years. Puente was charged with nine counts of murder, for the seven bodies found at her house in addition to Gillmouth and Montoya. She was convicted of three of the murders, as jury could not agree on the other six. Puente was sentenced to two life sentences which she served at Central California Women's Facility in Madera County, California until her death in 2011 at age 82. Until her death, she continued to insist that she was innocent and that the tenants had all died of natural causes.

Rebecca Martinez — Clerk/Recorder/Registrar of Voters for Madera County

Listen in on Mark Keppler's conversation with Rebecca Martinez, Clerk/Recorder/Registrar of Voters for Madera County about Madera County's new voting process.

I grew up originally in Merced CA which meant that we knew and visited people often just over the line in Madera County, in the town of Chowchilla. One time when traveling through the area my father took us outside of town to drive past a small ranch property. This site had all sorts of statues and windmills covering the property, all made out of welded and cut scrap metal. You had dinosaurs and insects, creatures of all shapes and sizes pieced together from old tractor parts, rebar, large gears, chains, leaf springs, and about anything else you can think of. This was when I learned the name of Carmon Neff. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
