Sibongile Zulu is among the 7.7 million south Africans who are HIV positive.西邦吉莱·祖鲁是770万感染艾滋病毒的南非人中的一员。She takes a cocktail of antiretroviral drugs to suppress the virus.她服用了一组抗逆转录病毒药物来抑制病毒。When south Africa imposed a coronavirus lockdown in March, Zulu lost her job.当南非在3月份实施新冠疫情封锁措施时，祖鲁失去了工作。Weeks later her local clinic began to run short of some medication.几周后，当地的诊所开始出现药物短缺。I think for two months, I was using only one that I was supposed to use two. And if I don't use both of them, it's a big risk and I can get sick.我想有两个月的时间，我只服用了一种药物，而我应该服用两种。如果我不同时服用两种药物，风险很大，我可能会生病。Across the world doctors say the coronavirus pandemic and the subsequent lockdowns will likely hamper the fight against other killer diseases like tuberculosis or TB, malaria and HIV.世界各地的医生表示，新冠疫情大流行以及随后实施的封锁措施可能会阻碍对抗结核病、疟疾和艾滋病等其他致命疾病的斗争。Epidemiologist Dr Salim S. Abdool Karim advises the south African government on the coronavirus and has led research into other infectious diseases in Africa.流行病学家萨利姆·阿卜杜尔·卡里姆博士就新冠疫情为南非政府提供建议，并领导了非洲其他传染病的研究。People are scared to go to healthcare services. We have seen a decline in the number of tests for tuberculosis.人们害怕去医疗服务机构。我们看到结核病检测数量有所下降。We've seen a decline in the number of patients coming in to get their medications.我们已经看到前来取药的患者数量有所下降。So that's of deep concern because it could undo the years of work that it has taken us to get to this point.这让人深感担忧，因为这可能会让我们多年来为达到目前这一阶段所付出的努力付诸东流。TB cases and deaths have fallen year on year in south Africa and many other countries.南非和许多其他国家的结核病病例和死亡人数同比下降。But it remains one of the world's biggest killers with an estimated 1.5 million deaths last year.但它仍是世界上最致命的疾病之一，去年估计有150万人因此丧生。We know there's 50% decrease in TB testing in south Africa at the moment.我们知道，目前南非的结核病检测量下降了50%。So people are not able to go to the clinic or go to hospitals and so on.人们无法前往诊所或医院等等。And they're not being diagnosed with TB, and this means that they can then transmit TB further to other people. So it's just going to sort of snowball.他们没有被诊断出患有结核病，这意味着他们随后可能会将结核病进一步传染给其他人。情况就会像滚雪球一样越来越糟。Malaria deaths in Africa could double in 2020 warn researchers from Imperial College London, unless disrupted services such as mosquito net distribution and malaria treatments are maintained.伦敦帝国理工学院的研究人员警告称，除非蚊帐分发和疟疾治疗等中断的服务得以维持，否则2020年非洲的疟疾死亡人数可能会翻倍。Despite thedireforecasts, Karim says there is opportunity.尽管预测情况严峻，但卡里姆表示仍存在机遇。The opportunity to look at integration, integration between covid, HIV, TB and other conditions.这个机遇在于审视整合，即新冠、艾滋病、结核病和其他疾病之间的整合。So that when we are investing for our coronavirus vigilance, we are benefiting not just the covid epidemic, but the epidemics of HIV and TB as well.当我们为应对新冠病毒保持警惕而投入资源时，受益的不仅是新冠疫情防控，还有艾滋病和结核病的防控。The global community must look at the bigger picture, says McQuaid.麦奎德说，国际社会必须着眼大局。We start to lose gains that we've been making in recent years, hard-fought gains that we've made.我们开始失去近年来取得的成果，那些我们经过艰苦努力才取得的成果。And we could be pushed back five, ten, twenty years even.我们的成果甚至会倒退五年、十年、二十年。Huge resources have been dedicated to the fight against the coronavirus.大量资源被用于抗击冠状病毒。Doctors say it's vital that other deadly diseases are not neglected.医生表示，至关重要的是不能忽视其他致命疾病。

„To jest niemożliwe, że ty żyjesz. To jest dosłownie niemożliwe”.Monika Więcek opowiada o wolontariacie misyjnym w Afryce, podczas którego zachorowała na malarię mózgową czwartego stopnia. Straciła świadomość, została zaintubowana, przestały pracować jej nerki, a lekarze nie wiedzieli, czy się wybudzi.Tuż przed planowanym transportem do szpitala w Nairobi odzyskała świadomość.To poruszająca rozmowa o spowiedzi, która miała być ostatnią, pogodzeniu się ze śmiercią, modlitwie ludzi z całego świata i życiu po doświadczeniu, które inni nazywali cudem.„Nie jestem cudem. Doświadczyłam cudu”.Posłuchaj tej poruszającej historii

What happens when a deep-seated thirst for childhood revenge turns into a career in genetic engineering? You get an absolute badass who is plotting the ultimate downfall of the world's deadliest killer. Krystal is a Ugandan entomologist (aka a massive bug nerd) who has dedicated her life to taking down the mosquito. Growing up in Uganda, surviving malaria was basically a terrifying game of Russian roulette. Crystal shares the raw, heart-wrenching origin story that fueled her career: watching her little brother suffer through brutal, fever-induced seizures all night while her family simply couldn't afford the medication to treat him. Crystal completely schools Jeremie and Brian on what malaria actually does to the human body - and it is no joke. We're talking brain damage from cerebral malaria, "black water fever" (where your urine turns black from liver damage), and even gangrene that leads to amputations. We also dig into the wild fact that out of the 3,500 species of mosquitoes on Earth, only about four are the real assholes responsible for the vast majority of malaria transmission in Africa. This episode is a massive reality check about the devastating barriers to healthcare in the developing world, the literal life-saving impact of the Global Fund, and the badass science that might just eradicate this disease for good.

¿Qué relación existe entre la malaria, la química y la ropa de color púrpura? Mucha más de la que parece.En este episodio de Salud por la Historia, Andrés Kalawski y Paula Molina cuentan cómo un intento fallido por sintetizar la quinina terminó dando origen al primer color sintético de la historia.El joven químico William Henry Perkin, mientras buscaba una cura para la malaria, descubrió por accidente el color malva, un hallazgo que revolucionó la industria textil, la moda, la química moderna y abrió el camino a los tintes sintéticos que hoy usamos a diario.Esta carambola histórica recorre la Inglaterra de la Revolución Industrial, el auge de la investigación científica, la fiebre del color malva, el papel de la emperatriz Eugenia y la reina Victoria, y cómo un descubrimiento inesperado cambió para siempre la forma de vestir, producir telas e innovar.Una historia sobre ciencia, innovación, errores que terminan cambiando el mundo y el enorme impacto que puede tener la curiosidad humana cuando se atreve a experimentar.Salud... por la Historia.Descubre más episodios en Cooperativapodcast.cl

Ich war 23. Krankenschwester. In Kenia. Ich sah ihn – und war sofort verliebt. Wir trafen uns heimlich. Nachts am Strand. In einer Buschbar mitten im Nirgendwo. Und dann folgte ich ihm mitten in der Nacht durch den Busch. Alleine. Mit Mondlicht und Tiergeräuschen überall. Weil ich ihn nicht verlieren wollte. Was ich in seiner Unterkunft fand – und was er danach tat – hat mich nie losgelassen. Er kam mit einem Stuhl zurück. Damit ich mich wohler fühle. Das ist die Geschichte von Liebe, Scham und Würde. Davon wie weit wir gehen für das Gefühl geliebt zu werden. Und was es uns kostet wenn wir dabei uns selbst verlassen. Er starb später an Malaria. Derselben für die ich ihm meine Medikamente gegeben hatte. Verbindung ist immer möglich. Auch wenn wir uns selbst verloren haben. Wenn du gerade nickst und denkst – das klingt irgendwie nach mir – dann lass es uns herausfinden. Ein erstes Gespräch kostet nichts: https://andreaholthaus.de/gesprach-vereinbaren/

Broadcast on KSQD, Santa Cruz on 6-18-2026:>/p> Dr. Dawn opens with Virginia Tech research showing yellow fever mosquitoes can learn to associate DEET with blood meals after just four pairings, with over 60% of trained mosquitoes lunging at DEET alone. She emphasizes using DEET at sufficient concentration since under-application could teach mosquitoes a "life lesson" that compromises one of our best protections against malaria, dengue, and Zika. A controversial new theory from the University of Bonn proposes that iron-rich macrophages in the pigeon liver serve as the long-elusive magnetic compass. Pigeons given drugs that wiped out their liver macrophages became completely disoriented when released on a cloudy day, though critics argue the trace iron is too weakly magnetic and birds may have been agitated by the drug itself. A COVID-era crowd-movement study found that in 32 of 33 trials, people preferred to turn counterclockwise regardless of handedness or culture (Spain and Japan). Animals show no such bias, suggesting a uniquely human biochemical asymmetry—Dr. Dawn speculates this may relate to left-hemisphere language centers near the inner ear, and notes racetracks worldwide run counterclockwise. A caller in Ben Lomond reports mouth irritation from FYGG nanohydroxyapatite toothpaste. Dr. Dawn suspects bystander ingredients (flavorings, paste-consistency agents) rather than the hydroxyapatite itself—which acts as remineralizing "grout" filling tiny tooth cracks—and recommends switching to a different fluoride-free brand like Tom's after the caller confirmed reaction on rechallenge. The same caller asks about turmeric liver toxicity. Dr. Dawn explains that reputable companies following good manufacturing practices stay within 5-10% accuracy on dosing, and her recommended dose (one teaspoon turmeric, one-eighth teaspoon black pepper, around 5g daily) stays far below toxic levels. Curcumin inhibits NF-kappa-B, the master switch for inflammatory cascades. An emailer in Bonny Doon asks about treating chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Dr. Dawn recommends electrical acupuncture which works more than half the time, combined with methylated B12 (2,000 micrograms daily), methylated folate (1,000 micrograms twice daily), alpha lipoic acid (300mg twice daily, also effective for tinnitus), and acetyl-L-carnitine (1,500mg daily). She also recommends photomodulation devices using 635nm red light with near-infrared. A caller raises magnetic field effects on humans. Dr. Dawn discusses human adaptability, referencing Chernobyl black moths that increased melanin epigenetically and ongoing efforts to upregulate radiation-resistance genes via mRNA for future space travel. The conversation turns to evolution of unique human hair patterns, with Dr. Dawn proposing sexual selection (armpit/pubic hair for pheromones) and neoteny (women's facial smoothness resembling infants triggering protective responses) as explanations. Dr. Dawn responds to a crowdsourced question about why Santa Cruz "makes people weird," attributing it to the area's low penalties for aberrant behavior and high tolerance for nonconformity. She explains how mirroring within small subgroups creates internal conformity even amid outward "weirdness," with sixties counterculture as a foundational influence. For another crowdsourced question on vitamins for women in their mid-twenties, Dr. Dawn recommends prenatal vitamins because they include extra iron for menstruating women plus adequate B vitamins. For those eating standard American diets or in dorms, she suggests B100 complex, 500mg calcium, and vitamin C.

Gerade Medikamente oder kleine gesundheitliche Vorsorgemaßnahmen werden vor Reisen häufig unterschätzt. Dabei können verlorene Koffer, lange Flüge oder ungewohnte Temperaturen schnell zum Problem werden.In dieser Folge sprechen wir darüber, warum Medikamente unbedingt ins Handgepäck gehören, welchen Risiken man sich bewusst sein sollte und warum es von Vorteil ist zu wissen, wo man eigentlich hinreist.

In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. Laurie Sehn interviews Drs. Reuben Kapur and Robert Campbell on their latest articles published in Blood. This episode highlights two groundbreaking studies exploring how inflammation drives serious blood and immune-related diseases. In the first interview, Dr. Kapur discusses how inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can both promote and worsen clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), with large-scale human data and mouse models identifying REF1 as a key mediator and potential therapeutic target. The second segment features Dr. Campbell, who explains how heme released during malaria infection activates platelet mTOR signaling, intensifying cerebral malaria and suggesting new avenues for platelet-targeted treatments. Together, the conversations reveal how inflammatory pathways and immune signaling contribute to disease progression while opening the door to novel precision therapies. 

In September 2025, the U.S. Department of State, Gilead Sciences, and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria announced a novel partnership to procure and deliver lenacapavir—a groundbreaking twice-yearly injectable pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention—to up to two million people over next three years.  On Tuesday, April 14, the leadership of these three entities convened to discuss the partnership now that doses have begun to arrive in country and have been delivered. Katherine E. Bliss, Director of Immunizations and Health Systems Resilience and Senior Fellow with the CSIS Global Health Policy Center moderated the conversation with Jeremy P. Lewin, Senior Official for the Office of the Under Secretary for Foreign Assistance, Humanitarian Affairs, and Religious Freedom at the U.S. Department of State; Daniel O'Day, Chairman and CEO of Gilead Sciences; and Peter Sands, Executive Director of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.  Together they examined how this deal fits into a renewed U.S. strategy for foreign assistance focused on big bets and advancing American innovations around the world, what challenges lie on the horizon as implementation unfolds, and what additional innovations may accelerate scaling this effort. 

This week, Aebhric is again joined by Zach Andrews, who leads the latest episode of CoROM Conversations, which explores the recognition and management of severe malaria in resource-limited and austere environments. Drawing on field-relevant clinical reasoning, the discussion focuses on the progression from uncomplicated to life-threatening disease, with emphasis on Plasmodium falciparum as the primary driver of severe pathology.The conversation highlights the diagnostic challenges faced by remote medics, where laboratory confirmation may be delayed or unavailable, and underscores the importance of clinical pattern recognition, early intervention, and ongoing reassessment. Particular attention is given to complications such as cerebral malaria, severe anaemia, metabolic acidosis, and hypoglycaemia—all of which significantly increase mortality if not rapidly addressed.From a prolonged field care perspective, the episode integrates pragmatic strategies for stabilisation, monitoring, and evacuation decision-making. It reinforces the need for structured patient assessment using frameworks such as CABCDEFGH, along with trending vital signs over time. The discussion ultimately bridges tropical medicine with austere critical care, offering actionable insights for medics operating far from definitive care.Key Learning PointsSevere malaria is a time-critical diagnosis, most commonly associated with Plasmodium falciparum, requiring immediate treatment even before confirmatory testing.Red flag features include altered mental status, respiratory distress, severe anaemia, hypoglycaemia, and shock.Hypoglycaemia is both a complication of malaria and a side effect of treatment (e.g., quinine), necessitating frequent glucose monitoring.In austere environments, clinical diagnosis often precedes laboratory confirmation, requiring high suspicion in febrile patients with travel or endemic exposure.Fluid management must be cautious, balancing the risks of hypovolaemia and pulmonary oedema.Prolonged care requires integration of nursing principles (HITMAN, SHEEP VOMIT) to prevent secondary deterioration.Early administration of parenteral antimalarials (e.g., artesunate where available) is critical to survival.Evacuation planning should be initiated early, but delays must not postpone life-saving interventions.Timestamps00:00 – IntroductionOverview of the case and relevance to austere medicine02:30 – Pathophysiology of Severe MalariaMechanisms of microvascular obstruction and organ dysfunction06:00 – Clinical PresentationRecognising early vs severe disease in the field10:30 – Assessment FrameworksApplying structured approaches (CABCDEFGH, CPRO, BEAST)15:00 – Management PrioritiesAntimalarials, glucose, fluids, and airway considerations20:30 – Complications and MonitoringCerebral malaria, acidosis, anaemia, and respiratory failure25:00 – Prolonged Field Care ConsiderationsNursing care, documentation, and trending30:00 – Evacuation and Decision-MakingWhen and how to move the patient33:00 – Key Takeaways and Closing ThoughtsClinical Pearls / Take-Home MessagesTreat first, confirm later: In suspected severe malaria, delays in treatment increase mortality.Check glucose early and often: Hypoglycaemia can be rapidly fatal and easily missed.Think beyond fever: Altered mental status or respiratory changes may be the first sign of severe disease.Your greatest tool is reassessment: Trends in vital signs are more valuable than single data points.Good nursing care saves lives: Positioning, hydration, hygiene, and monitoring are critical in prolonged care environments.Suggested ReferencesWorld Health Organization.

Malaria ist immer noch eine große globale Gesundheitsbedrohung. Laut Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) wurden im Jahr 2024 weltweit etwa 610.000 Todesfälle verzeichnet. Besonders betroffen sind Kinder unter fünf Jahren in Subsahara-Afrika. Wo stehen wir aktuell bei der Eindämmung von Malaria? Stefan Troendle im Gespräch mit Dr. Anna Bachmann, Bernhard-Nocht-Institut für Tropenmedizin, Hamburg.

In dieser Folge erzählen Laura und Kai die Geschichte einer unscheinbaren, aber mächtigen Waffe gegen Malaria: das Bettnetz. Mit zahlreichen Forschenden sprechen sie über die lange Wissenschaftsgeschichte der Netze und warum es Jahrzehnte dauerte, bis sie breit eingesetzt wurden. Sie erklären, was Bettnetze wirklich erreicht haben, wie ein Ausrutscher an der Fernbedienung zur Geburtsstunde einer der wichtigsten Hilfsorganisationen im Kampf gegen Malaria wurde – und warum dieser Kampf ausgerechnet jetzt ins Stocken gerät. Mit Rob Mather, Abraham Mnzava, Brian Greenwood, Pedro Alonso, Fredros Okumu, Kirsten Moore-Sheeley, Kate Kolaczinski und Cordelia Kenney.

On today's episode, we talk about an incredibly deadly creature, which has determined the course of nearly all human history just by existing: The Mosquito. How has the mosquito determined the course of war, and what wars might have gone differently if it didn't exist?

In this episode, we're joined by Dr Kate Wylie, GP and Executive Director of Doctors for the Environment Australia, and a long-time friend of the show. One of Australia's leading voices on climate and health, Kate helps us unpack the United Nations' Global Water Bankruptcy report and what it means for all of us.Put simply: we are running out of water. We're using more than we have in supply, so much that in many places we're pushing past the point of recovery and can't repay our debts. Driven by climate change, over-extraction, and pollution, this growing ‘water bankruptcy' is fuelling food and water insecurity, disease, and deepening global inequities.Closer to home, we explore what this looks like in Australia, from the declining Murray-Darling to pressures on the Great Artesian Basin, and why this crisis is as much about public health as it is about the environment.A sharp, urgent conversation about one of the defining challenges of our time and the role we all must play in protecting the resource that underpins life itself.In this episode, we discuss:Kate's background and her work at the intersection of human and planetary healthThe UN's Global Water Bankruptcy report and Kate's recent InSight+ article outlining what this means for us in AustraliaOur unsustainable water use and the industries driving the greatest extractionThe deep inequities of water insecurity, with the Global South bearing the greatest burdenKey health concerns, including unsafe drinking water, food insecurity, and the mental health effects of droughtRising risks of vector-borne diseases like Malaria, Dengue Fever, and Ross River VirusThe dual extremes of drought and flooding, and their impact on food systems and livelihoodsAustralia's unique challenges as the driest inhabited continent, and the need for more sustainable agricultureGrowing strain on critical systems, from the Murray-Darling Basin to the Great Artesian Basin, and flow-on effects like South Australia's algal bloomThe hidden water and energy costs of modern technology, including AI and cloud computing, and why we can't ‘tech' our way out of thisThe critical role of health professionals in advocating for climate and water securityWhy climate and environmental health must be embedded in medical educationThe vital work of Doctors for the Environment Australia and their latest advocacy efforts, including an open letter to Australian governments calling for an end to our dependence on global oil—add your name to the submission hereTo view all the links to the websites and documents, visit the show notes on our website.Please support our work and enable us to deliver more content by buying us a coffee or becoming a member of Athletes for Nature.Follow us on Instagram and Facebook, subscribe to this podcast, and share this episode with your friends and family.

On this episode of the Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery podcast, Jennie and Dianne are joined by author Gigi Berardi to talk about "Bianca's Cure", her fact-driven historical novel about Bianca Capello, who in real life was famed for her beauty, but Gigi's Bianca is a scientist centuries ahead of her time,  hunting a malaria cure with the herb artemisia. Malaria, took the lives of many in Italy in the 14th century, including several members of one of Italy's most famed royal families, the Medicis. The same family Bianca married into. When her husband, the Grand Duke Francesco de' Medici died, they found arsenic in his bones. And Bianca? Her body was never found. Denied a Medici tomb, she likely vanished into an unmarked grave.Listen in for a fascinating discussion of medicine, politics, passion, and mysteries beyond some of Italy's most Ordinary Extraordinary graves.Purchase your copy of "Bianca's Cure" here: https://gigiberardi.com/Need an Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery Podcast tee, hoodie or mug?

What does it really take to lift millions out of poverty and prevent needless deaths?In this special compilation episode, 17 past guests — including economists, nonprofit founders, and policy advisors — share their most powerful and actionable insights from the front lines of global health and development. You'll hear about the critical need to boost agricultural productivity in sub-Saharan Africa, the staggering impact of lead poisoning on children in low-income countries, and the social forces that contribute to high neonatal mortality rates in India.What's so striking is how some of the most effective interventions sound almost too simple to work: banning certain pesticides, replacing thatch roofs, or identifying village “influencers” to spread health information.Full transcript and links to learn more: https://80k.info/ghdChapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Luisa's intro (00:00:58)Development consultant Karen Levy on why pushing for “sustainable” programmes isn't as good as it sounds (00:02:15)Economist Dean Spears on the social forces and gender inequality that contribute to neonatal mortality in Uttar Pradesh (00:06:55)Charity founder Sarah Eustis-Guthrie on what we can learn from the massive failure of PlayPumps (00:14:33)Economist Rachel Glennerster on how randomised controlled trials are just one way to better understand tricky development problems (00:19:05)Data scientist Hannah Ritchie on why improving agricultural productivity in sub-Saharan Africa is critical to solving global poverty (00:24:36)Charity founder Lucia Coulter on the huge, neglected upsides of reducing lead exposure (00:47:48)Malaria expert James Tibenderana on using gene drives to wipe out the species of mosquitoes that cause malaria (00:53:11)Charity founder Varsha Venugopal on using village gossip to get kids their critical immunisations (01:04:14)Rachel Glennerster on solving tough global problems by creating the right incentives for innovation (01:11:31)Karen Levy on when governments should pay for programmes instead of NGOs (01:26:51)Open Philanthropy lead Alexander Berger on declining returns in global health, and finding and funding the most cost-effective interventions (01:29:40)GiveWell researcher James Snowden on making funding decisions with tricky moral weights (01:34:44)Lucia Coulter on “hits-based giving” approaches to funding global health and development projects (01:43:01)Rachel Glennerster on whether it's better to fix problems in education with small-scale interventions versus systemic reforms (01:48:12)GiveDirectly cofounder Paul Niehaus on why it's so important to give aid recipients a choice in how they spend their money (01:51:09)Sarah Eustis-Guthrie on whether more charities should scale back or shut down, and aligning incentives with beneficiaries (01:56:12)James Tibenderana on why we need loads better data to harness the power of AI to eradicate malaria (02:11:22)Lucia Coulter on rapidly scaling a light-touch intervention to more countries (02:20:14)Karen Levy on why pre-policy plans are so great at aligning perspectives (02:32:47)Rachel Glennerster on the value we get from doing the right RCTs well (02:40:04)Economist Mushtaq Khan on really drilling down into why “context matters” for development work (02:50:13)GiveWell cofounder Elie Hassenfeld on contrasting GiveWell's approach with the subjective wellbeing approach of Happier Lives Institute (02:57:24)James Tibenderana on whether people actually use antimalarial bed nets for fishing — and why that's the wrong thing to focus on (03:05:30)Karen Levy on working with governments to get big results (03:10:53)Leah Utyasheva on how a simple intervention reduced suicide in Sri Lanka by 70% (03:17:38)Karen Levy on working with academics to get the best results on the ground (03:29:03)James Tibenderana on the value of working with local researchers (03:32:15)Lucia Coulter on getting buy-in from both industry and government (03:35:05)Alexander Berger on reasons neartermist work makes sense even by longtermist standards (03:39:26)Economist Shruti Rajagopalan on the key skills to succeed in public policy careers, and seeing economics in everything (03:47:42)J-PAL lead Claire Walsh on her career advice for young people who want to get involved in global health and development (03:55:20)Audio engineering: Ben Cordell, Milo McGuire, Simon Monsour, and Dominic ArmstrongContent editing: Katy Moore and Milo McGuireMusic: CORBITCoordination, transcriptions, and web: Katy Moore

“Malaria is an all of society challenge. When you look at the environmental issues, addressing the breeding sites for mosquitoes, it's an all of society issue…it is not just the responsibility of the heads of state.”Daniel Dadzie hears from Joy Phumaphi, Executive Secretary of the African Leaders Malaria Alliance, or ALMA.ALMA was founded with the goal of eradicating malaria in Africa by 2030. Now, Joy Phumaphi concedes this is not going to happen. In fact, she says only a few countries across the continent will hit this target, thanks to a “perfect storm” of climate change, insecticide and drug resistance, spiralling costs and cuts in aid. She also highlights the risk that private sector development projects can create breeding grounds for mosquitoes.

Providing primary health care in a war zone presents some extraordinary challenges. This presentation delves into the complex world of healthcare delivery amid conflict and chaos.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 3-19-2026: Dr. Dawn warns that stacking multiple gummy supplements can cause GI distress from sugar alcohols like xylitol, sorbitol, and mannitol, with symptoms persisting up to three days after stopping. She recommends limiting sugar alcohol intake to 6mg daily and switching to non-gummy formulations if experiencing bloating, cramping, or diarrhea. An emailer asks about finding treatment for abdominophrenic dyssynergia, a condition causing progressive abdominal distension after meals. Dr. Dawn recommends using AI search to locate physical therapy centers offering EMG-guided biofeedback, and suggests ruling out SIBO and low stomach acid. Researchers at the American Chemical Society have created modified psilocybin variants designed to release the active compound more slowly, potentially reducing hallucinogenic effects while maintaining therapeutic benefits. Dr. Dawn expresses concern that such patentable alternatives could prevent legalization of natural psilocybin for addiction treatment. Japanese researchers used PET imaging to discover that ketamine rapidly relieves treatment-resistant depression by altering the distribution of AMPAR glutamate receptors in the brain. Within two weeks, patients' receptor patterns normalized to resemble healthy controls, with enduring changes tracking symptom improvement. A study found CBD and CBG improved fatty liver disease markers in mice by increasing phosphocreatine energy reserves and reactivating cellular recycling centers. Dr. Dawn notes the compounds were injected directly into the abdominal cavity, making the results impossible to translate to oral consumption, an example of headlines exceeding reality. King's College London research found that root canal treatment for apical periodontitis improved blood sugar, cholesterol, and inflammation markers over two years. Dr. Dawn advises regular flossing and periodically tapping teeth with a metal instrument to detect painful teeth needing attention. An emailer asks about Crohn's disease and the gut-brain axis. Dr. Dawn explains that the vagus nerve serves as a bidirectional highway between brain and gut, with gut bacteria producing serotonin that affects mood, while stress increases intestinal permeability and worsens inflammation. In medical news of the weird, scientists discovered that malaria parasites contain tiny iron crystals powered by hydrogen peroxide—the same fuel used in rockets. This first-ever biological self-propelled nanoparticle could inspire new approaches to powering medical nanobots.

Science commentator Allan Blackman joins Kathryn with some new science studies. 

The cage breaks open. Caravaggio breaks with it.Chained in a torture chamber beneath the fortress, Caravaggio faces the Grand Master one last time. Faith against flesh. Obedience against desire. What follows is an escape down a fortress wall, a boat in the dark, and a fugitive painter running not toward freedom but toward the only thing he has left.Act Three is the fall. Brutal. Beautiful. Inevitable.Sicily. Caravaggio paints like a man on fire. In Syracuse, a burial. In Messina, a nativity. Each canvas more desperate than the last. Each one a confession he cannot say out loud. The genius is still there. The man holding the brush is disappearing.Back in Rome, the news arrives. Lena. The woman whose face launched his greatest work. Gone. Caravaggio learns what it costs to leave someone behind in a city that devours the unprotected.Cardinal Del Monte makes his final play. A pardon. A real one. Signed by the Pope himself. But the pardon needs a delivery and Caravaggio needs to stay alive long enough to receive it.Naples. A prison cell. Malaria. Chains. The Grand Master finds him one last time. Two men who could never say what they meant finally say it. It is too late for both of them.Then a swamp. Bandits. A boiling sun. A beach. A boy. Two nuns. And the Tyrrhenian coast, where the greatest painter of his generation reaches for the light one final time.The pardon arrives. The man does not.Act Three is reckoning. Loss. Grace. The moment the fuse runs out.What you see in the art, you will find in the artist. What you see in the artist, you will find in the man.Cast Dennis Kleinman · Narrator Craig Parker · Caravaggio Dan Lauria · Cardinal Del Monte Bruce Davison · Alof de Wignacourt Shaan Sharma · Stefano della Croce Catherine Lidstone · Lena Sarah Elmaleh · Maria Brendan Bradley · Annibale Carracci Noah James · Ranuccio Tomassoni Josh Sterling · Ottavio Tomassoni Zeke Alton · Giovan Tomassoni Nick Monteleone · Mancini Matt Curtin · Toppa Bjorn Johnson · Pope Paul V Ray Abruzzo · Pope Clement VIIIWritten by Richard VetereExecutive Produced by Jack Levy, Shaan Sharma, and Mark KnellTable Read is a Manifest Media production.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Our Titan of Science this week is leading light in the field of malaria, Jane Carlton.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Sheena: Hi Dr C! Hope you and your team are well. I've been hearing a lot about colostrum lately and it piqued my interest. Can you speak a little about it? Do you use it? Is there a brand you would recommend? Is it safe for anyone? Who should avoid it? Side effects? I take a probiotic everyday, can colostrum replace this?? Looking forward to hearing your response. Thanks in advance!                                                                                                                                                         Frankie: Hi Stephen, My name is Frankie Im 21 years old, and I wanted to follow up from Episode 3382, where you mentioned my symptoms could be connected to gut issues, low vitamin D, magnesium, metals, or GERD. Since then, I followed a strict LPR diet for about two months  no gluten, coffee, alcohol, peanuts, oats, onions, garlic, broccoli, beans, etc. My LPR symptoms improved by around 70%, and while I still have some mucus in my throat, its nowhere near as potent as before. During and after the protocol, I focused on rebuilding my gut with some gut-rebuilding supplements and slowly reintroducing foods. Its now been about three months since finishing the protocol, and Ive gained around 14 pounds. I also still deal with loose stool almost every day, which hasnt improved much. It’s honestly shocked me because Im very dialed in with both my food and workouts, yet the weight gain and digestive changes still happened. I wanted to get your thoughts on what direction to take from here. I havent run the Big 5 protocol since Im based in Canada, and it would end up costing quite a bit more with shipping and exchange rates. Also, I just wanted to mention its surprising how many young people my age are struggling with digestive and gut related issues. Its becoming way too common. Thanks again for all the work you do, and I hope you have a great day I listen to you every morning. Frankie     Gary: Hi Dr. Cabral. Im 49, male & over the last 4 years taken a deep interest in my health. I had cerebral malaria (2003) & as a result developed essential tremor both hands. Listened to 2 podcasts & working on noticeable triggers like ltd caffeine & alcohol. It hasnt got worse, but really is there any way to reverse it? Neurologist says surgery has no guarantee.  I would value the truth & if it were your wife what you would do please. So much life ahead 🙏 (PS. Partner is an IHP so DESTRESS at the heart of our approach) we want to do EVERYTHING we can. Thank you     Sienna: Hi Dr. Cabral - so excited about your new Pea Protein, got great feedback from the support team, however would love your response. Pea Protein safe for kids? Since DNS is I would approach it in same way, Dr. AI says generally kids get enough from food so not recommended… Do you give this to your daughters in same way you have it? Ie a little more protein in smoothies *daily* or just in baked goods like pancakes occasionally. Thank you! Happy holidays      Anonymous: What are some ways to improve gut motility, I'm already on a supplement program and ginger tea.
