Podcasts about Malaria

Le zanzare producono sempre più preoccupazione per la sanità pubblica. L'aumento delle aree colpite da West Nile, il verificarsi ormai costante di casi autoctoni di dengue e chikungunya, fanno riflettere sugli effetti che i cambiamenti climatici ed il sempre maggiore movimento di uomini e merci possono avere sulla salute. Dopo aver sconfitto la malaria con la scomparsa delle zanzare anofeli dal nostro territorio pensavamo che la partita fosse chiusa. Invece è più che mai aperta. La presenza di zanzare Aedes (la zanzara tigre) rendono possibile lo stabilirsi di malattie da sempre considerate "tropicali". Ovviamente la domanda da un milione di dollari è: possono le zanzare avere un ruolo in una prossima pandemia? Le pandemie hanno da sempre accompagnato la storia dell'uomo, ma la frequenza con cui oggi si verificano non ha precedenti. Di zanzare e pandemie parleremo in questa puntata del podcast. Buon ascolto!

Josh Sigurdson reports on the emergency Covid style pandemic mandates being enforced in parts of China as the government reports 7,000 cases of Chikungunya virus, an illness alleged to come from mosquitoes. The illness being reported in the Guandong province of China, specifically Foshan City is leading to forced quarantines and arrests as well as mass fogging of the city with pesticides. The illness carries hallmarks of autoimmune disorders usually caused by things like vaccination. It is interesting to note that China among many other places worldwide have taken part in the use of weaponized mosquitoes in the past. In fact, the US government has what they call "Flying Syringes" which are mosquitoes which are genetically modified and are used via their saliva to inject unsuspecting people with "vaccines." Bill Gates also has an initiative called the World Mosquito Program which releases genetically modified mosquitoes into public areas to "stop pandemics." These mosquitoes have been released throughout Africa causing some major illness outbreaks and have indeed been released on several occasions in Florida. There have also been many tests for mosquitoes vaccinating people for Malaria. Are we seeing yet another weaponization agenda? We know as of recently, Moderna is releasing an aerosol that sprays the food supply with mRNA. There is also now vaccine dental floss which we've previously reported on as well as mRNA meats and vaccines that can be sprayed from planes or put in the water supply. With the fear mongering surrounding Bird Flu, this also gives the state the ability to target the food supply. With the largest pandemic exercise ever, Exercise Pegasus coming in the fall, we should be asking a lot of questions. Are we going to allow them to continue targeting us and our children?

A new study in Kenya shows that mass drug administration of ivermectin safely reduced malaria cases by 26%, offering a promising supplement to insecticide-based prevention. Transcript Bed nets and insecticides are commonly used to prevent malaria transmission. But insecticide resistance is making those tools less effective. There's a growing interest in ivermectin, an antiparasitic drug normally used to treat neglected tropical diseases such as river blindness or scabies, that is also capable of killing the Anopheles mosquitoes that transmit malaria. In a new study in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers from ISGlobal, an institute in Barcelona, investigated whether ivermectin given to at-risk populations en masse – in a policy of ‘mass drug administration' – might supplement the use of insecticides to reduce malaria transmission. In Kwale, a coastal county in Kenya where malaria is present year-round, nearly twenty-nine thousand people took part. Half were given ivermectin at 400μg per kilogram of bodyweight. The other half were given 400mg of albendazole, not an antimalarial drug, but an anti-worming drug comparable to ivermectin. Each group took the drug once a month for three months. The study looked at both the efficacy and safety of the two interventions. Both drugs proved safe, but ivermectin had a greater impact, leading to a 26% reduction in malaria cases – higher than the 20% efficacy benchmark set by the World Health Organization.

We explore what allyship really means in the fight for gender justice. Co-hosted by Ishrat Jahan from the Countering Backlash, Reclaiming Justice programme, the conversation unpacks how power, privilege, and positionality shape allyship, and how solidarity must move beyond tokenism to be truly transformative. Our guests reflect on allyship within health systems, across movements, and in the face of patriarchal and political backlash in Brazil and India. Part of our mini-series Backlash, Resistance and the Path to Gender Justice, this episode highlights lived experiences and fresh perspectives from long-standing gender justice advocates.In this episode: Ishrat Jahan - Research Fellow at the Centre for Gender and Sexual and Reproductive Health at BRAC James P.

Ist die Welt nicht bunt? Da gibt es zum Beispiel Käse oder beste Freundinnen! Und - auf der anderen, weniger positiven Seite - nur zwei Beispiele: Malaria. Und Jessica. Der Beitrag Käse, Malaria und ich erschien zuerst auf Morgenradio.

Das Medikament wurde speziell für Neugeboren und Babys entwickelt. Für sie gab es bisher keine Behandlung, obwohl sie besonders häufig an Malaria sterben. Autorin: Noelle O'Brien-Coker. Von Daily Good News.

A collection of lab-reared mosquitoes were dumped on Hawaii in June 2025. In 2008 the Gates Foundation paid Jichi Medical University $100,000 “to design a mosquito that can produce and secrete a malaria vaccine protein into a host's skin.” In 2010 Science Magazine online called these mosquitoes “flying vaccinators.” Years later genetically modified mosquitos were released in California and Florida, along with countries like Brazil. The reasoning varies: to stop invasive species, to breed away disease carriers, and to prevent malaria. But when you introduced modified species into a local population then you are introducing invasive species. When you try to limit population numbers you could end up killing all the local population. These experiments have all but failed completely. Besides, Malaria has a standard set of symptoms and most cases in the US and even Japan are from Africa, Southern Asia, and South America. There are virtually no domestic cases and so we know that mosquitos and bacteria do not cause malaria. So what's the point in releasing engineered insects? Perhaps it has something to do with black magic. The Japanese KODOKU and Chinese GU systems of magic involve the use of insects to inflict harm or obtain protection. Poisonous and venomous insects are placed in a container where they fight and die. The last surviving insect is then used to create poisons or protective charms. Consider this: genetically modified insects are released in large contained areas to fight insects carrying serious diseases. They are intended to kill off the local insect populations, at which point the invasive modified insect can be used to inject proteins into the local human population. In other words, this isn't just mad science, it's KODOKU.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

BEST OF TSTSHOW 1: In 2008 the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation financed Jichi Medical University in Japan to develop “a mosquito that can produce and secrete a malaria vaccine protein.” The initiative was aimed at creating a “flying syringe, to deliver protective vaccine via saliva.” In 2010 they gave money to UK-based biotech company Oxitec to develop genetically modified mosquitoes that could be lethal to carriers of dengue, zika, and yellow fever. Science Magazine published a report that year on this Japanese research and discussed what they called “flying vaccinators.” In 2015 the people of Florida, set to be the Oxitec testing ground, signed a petition against such open-air lab trials. In 2021 the trial proceeded regardless and in April 2022 Nature published a report on the results which found that although mosquitoes died in large numbers there was no reduction in disease spread or need for pesticides, which often cause the very symptoms of the diseases. A few days ago a mosquito-malaria-vaccine trial was carried out in Washington State. Of 14 participants, 7 were diagnosed with malaria leading researchers to declare their mosquito-vaccine was 50% effective. However, they made no mention of how the other half of the group could be exposed to ‘malaria' and yet not develop the disease with its vague ‘symptom complex' list. There is no question why such a malaria vaccine should be tested in the U.S. where cases rarely top 2,000 and where death rarely reaches double digits. Meanwhile, Africa is home to 95% of cases and 96% of deaths, while India is home to most of the world's polio. It is likely these ‘disease' are caused by environment, as demonstrated by official WHO data, rather than tiny invisible particles. While focus has been on the mosquito, the NIH and B&MGF have also been researching a needle-less vaccine. Such research goes back to Spain in 1999 where researchers were able to spread vaccine-induced antibodies to non-vaccinated rabbits via vaccinated rabbits. All was done in natural interaction without needle, misquotes, or any other tool. SHOW 2: Malaria is supposedly on the rise in the United States, where seven cases between Florida and Texas have been reported in the last few weeks. The CDC issued a public health alert as a result and the media collectively is spreading the terror of malaria with graphs, charts, stories, and symptoms. The strange thing is that malaria is always present, particularly in those two states, where in 2012 cases were 102 in Texas and 59 in Florida. Over the years those numbers went up and down, peaking in 2019 and then dropping significantly in 2020. This is why the media can claim cases are on the rise even if they are below the previous decade peak. From NPR to the New Scientist there are, of course, solutions to this terrible outbreak that isn't much of an outbreak: vaccines and genetically modified mosquitoes that could produce antibodies against malaria parasite. However, these same genetically modified insects have been in development since 2008 and were released in Florida after 2015. They were created with money from the B&MGF: “a mosquito that can produce and secrete a malaria vaccine protein.” But what if gm-mosquitoes are another alternative lab-leak theory? Malaria's symptoms are themselves invariably described in the same way that heat stroke symptoms are: headaches, fever, muscle aches, nausea, etc. Any mosquito issue, genetically modified or otherwise, can of course be treated with new drugs and chemicals, like the Pyriproxyfen that caused Microcephaly which was blamed on zika and mosquitos. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Have we found Betelgeuse's ‘Betelbuddy?' An astronomical mystery seems to be solved as the long-predicted stellar companion to the bright star Betelgeuse has been detected by a team of researchers led by Steve Howell of the NASA Ames Research Center using the Gemini North telescope in Hawaii. Steve discusses this breakthrough alongside astronomer Andrea Dupree of the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, who has discussed the predictions of this star on previous Science in Action programmes. Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease caused by the parasite plasmodium that kills more than half a million people each year. George Dimopoulos of the Johns Hopkins Malaria Research Institute is using gene editing and gene drive technology to target the parasites as they develop in the guts of mosquito. Can this new method disrupt the malaria parasite life cycle safely and sustainably? Our gut microbiomes are linked to our brains, but how can the bacteria in our colon communicate with our nervous system? M. Maya Kaelberer of the University of Arizona explains this neurobiotic sense, suggesting that the microbes in our large intestine communicate with specialised sensory cells in the gut. These cells send signals up to our brain and regulate our appetite. So, who really decides when you're hungry? Is it you, or is it your microbiome?

Novartis het goedkeuring ontvang in Switserland vir Coartem Baby, die eerste middel wat malaria in babas en baie jong kinders behandel. Babas is tot dusver formulerings gegee wat vir ouer kinders bedoel is, wat die risiko van oordosis verhoog. Malaria-entstowwe word ook nie vir die jongste babas goedgekeur nie. Agt Afrika-lande wat aan die assessering deelgeneem het, sal na verwagting die behandeling vinnig goedkeur. Dr. Caroline Boulton, hoof van Novartis se globale malaria-program, lig die skaal van die probleem uit.

In the 1970s and 80s, Caroline Eshghi was a young girl living in Bristol, Somerset, and Wiltshire. From the moment she was born until she ran away at the age of 15, Caroline was beaten, burned and starved by her mother. In May this year, Melanie Burmingham was jailed for 20 months for abusing her daughter more than 50 years ago. Caroline tells Krupa Padhy why she is now petitioning for a change to the law around historical cases that only allows a sentence available at the time of offending. The first malaria treatment suitable for babies has been approved for use. We speak to BBC Africa Health Correspondent Dorcas Wangira in Nairobi to find out how this may empower healthcare workers in the battle against the disease that takes the lives of hundreds of thousands of people each year.One of the key measures that Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood is reported to be considering as part of her Sentencing Bill is a national rollout of drugs that suppress sexual arousal to try and tackle sex offenders. There is currently a working pilot in the South West of England, and several of the clinicians, psychiatrists and forensic psychologists have raised concerns about making such a scheme mandatory. Krupa talks to Don Rubin, Emeritus Professor in Forensic Psychology at Newcastle University, and a consultant to the pilot programme. Fatima Timbo, known as Fats Timbo, is a content creator and comedian who has amassed an incredible 3 million followers on TikTok. Since appearing on TV show The Undateables in 2018, she's also been part of the team bringing us the Paralympics coverage from Paris last year. Born with achondroplasia, a form of dwarfism, she documents her experiences of being - as she describes it - ‘a little person', and now she's sharing her tips for succeeding in a world where it's difficult to be different in her book Main Character Energy: Ten Commandments for Living Life Fearlessly.

Das Schweizerische Heilmittelinstitut Swissmedic hat ein Medikament gegen Malaria von Novartis zugelassen, das speziell für Kleinkinder ist. Bei Erwachsenen wird das Mittel schon seit Jahren eingesetzt, nun wurde es in acht afrikanischen Ländern auch bei Kleinkindern getestet. Weitere Themen: Bundesrat Albert Rösti hat am Dienstag zu einem Sommergespräch auf den Moléson geladen. Ziel war es, über Themen aus seinem Departement zu berichten, die Stromversorgung etwa oder die Verkehrsinfrastruktur. Der Transportminister Russlands, Roman Starowoit, wurde wegen Korruption abrupt entlassen. Stunden später wurde sein Tod vermeldet, offenbar Suizid. Vieles ist unklar. Klar ist hingegen, dass Starowoits Tod ein Schlaglicht auf die grassierende Korruption im Land wirft.

We all know by now how much Rena Sarigianopoulos of KARE-11 hates live music, loud restaurants, or going anywhere at any time. Today's visit with Chad only served to confirm all of it.

In this newscast, I look at the recent locally acquired malaria cases reported in North Queensland, Australia.

La malaria afecta a 260 millones de personas en el mundo y causa 600.000 muertes al año. El 94 por ciento de los casos se dan en el África subsahariana. Y tres de cada cuatro fallecidos son niños menores de cinco años. Costa de Marfil, con la ayuda de GAVI (organización internacional cuyo objetivo es mejorar el acceso a las vacunas y la inmunización en los países menos desarrollados), se ha convertido en el primer país africano en incluir la vacuna contra la enfermedad en su calendario de vacunación infantil. En "Más cerca" (Radio 5) hemos hablado con la investigadora del CSIC Margarita del Val, testigo directo de las primeras vacunaciones. Escuchar audio

Send us a textCould gene drive mosquitoes be the key to ending deadly diseases like malaria and dengue or do the risks outweigh the benefits? In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks talks with Dr. Michael Santos about the controversial yet potentially groundbreaking technology known as gene drive. Unlike traditional genetically modified organisms, gene drive mosquitoes are engineered to pass on specific traits to nearly all of their offspring, drastically altering or suppressing mosquito populations that spread disease. With real-world field trials set to begin very soon, we dive into how this technology works, how it differs from standard genetic modification, what diseases it targets, and what could go wrong. We also explore how the trials will be conducted, regulated, and monitored to ensure safety and transparency. Is this the dawn of a public health breakthrough or are we opening a Pandora's box we can't close? Dr. Michael Santos is the Senior Vice President of Science Partnerships and Chief Population Health Science Officer at the Foundation for the NIH. He leads global programs focused on biomedical innovation and health equity, and directs the GeneConvene Global Collaboration, which supports informed decision-making around genetic biocontrol technologies like gene drive. Prior to this, he held leadership roles at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and was a Principal at Boston Consulting Group, working across global health strategy. Dr. Santos began his career in astronomy and holds a Ph.D. from Caltech. To learn more about GeneConvene, Gene Drive Mosquitoes (and gain access to the infographic discussed in the episode) please click here. You can contact Dr. Eeks at bloomingwellness.com.Follow Eeks on Instagram here.Or Facebook here.Or X.On Youtube.Or TikTok.SUBSCRIBE to her monthly newsletter here!

On this week's podcast episode, we unpack U.S. President Donald Trump's 2026 budget request, which proposes sweeping cuts to foreign aid and includes the elimination of funding for major global health initiatives such as Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance and The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. The administration has also submitted a $9.4 billion rescission proposal to the U.S. Congress, seeking to formally cancel previously approved funds, much of it earmarked for foreign assistance. If approved, the move would codify into law cuts already made by the Department of Government Efficiency. The upcoming congressional response will be a critical test of foreign aid advocacy. We also discuss what happened at last week's African Development Bank meetings in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, where delegates discussed the need to diversify funding sources in the wake of U.S. aid cuts and focus on more reliable partnerships. The meetings also marked a leadership transition, with Mauritania's Sidi Ould Tah appointed as the AfDB's new president, vowing to mobilize private sector investment and deepen partnerships with the Gulf states. To discuss these stories, Devex Senior Editor Rumbi Chakamba is joined by reporters Michael Igoe and Ayenat Mersie for this episode of This Week in Global Development.

00:45 Treating mosquitoes for malariaResearchers have developed two compounds that can kill malaria-causing parasites within mosquitoes, an approach they hope could help reduce transmission of the disease. The team showed that these compounds can be embedded into the plastics used to make bed nets, providing an alternative to insecticide-based malaria-control measures, which are losing efficacy in the face of increased resistance.Research article: Probst et al.10:42 Research HighlightsThe sunlight-powered device that can harvest drinkable water from desert air, and evidence that the world's richest people are disproportionately responsible for climate impacts.Research Highlight: Atacama sunshine helps to pull water from thin airResearch Highlight: The world's richest people have an outsized role in climate extremes13:02 The genetics that can lead to pregnancy lossResearchers have found specific genetic mutations that can lead to pregnancy loss. It's known that errors, such as the duplication of chromosomes, can lead to nonviable pregnancies but less has been known about non-chromosomal genetic errors. The new work identifies DNA sequence changes that can lead to a non-viable pregnancy.
