In this podcast episode of Matter of Vax, Professor Christopher Blyth joins host Stephanie O'Connell to discuss influenza and its impact on public health. He highlights the significant decrease in influenza cases and deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic due to preventive measures such as vaccinations, travel restrictions, quarantine, hand hygiene, and mask-wearing. Professor Blyth predicts a significant flu season in 2023 as restrictions ease and people return to normal activities, and he explains why the influenza vaccine needs to be administered annually due to the virus's continuous evolution. Professor Blyth emphasizes the importance of staying home when unwell, practicing good cough etiquette, maintaining proper hand hygiene, and considering mask-wearing in crowded places to reduce the transmission of various respiratory viruses. He encourages for us to stay updated with vaccines and to follow preventive measures to protect themselves and their communities.

Another 18-year-old is in hospital with meningococcal, the second in less than 24 hours and the fourth case in Christchurch so far this year. On Wednesday a fellow 18 year old university student had contracted the disease. The Meningitis Foundation says that this could have been avioded if Pharmac and Te Whatu Ora moved more quickly to roll out the vaccine to young people living in close quarters like university halls. Funding for the jab only just came available this month. A Trustee of the Meningitis Foundation Pete Rowlands spoke to Māni Dunlop.
Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Jessica: Thank you for all you do! I have learned so much about healing myself though your podcast and running your tests as well as doing the functional medicine detox and the heavy metal detox! For my question… I know the benefits of infrared sauna. I have also heard that for women with breast implants it can cause those heavy metals to leak out of them. I was hoping that you could shed some light on this and advise if women with implants should in fact use an infrared sauna? Thank you so much! Anonymous: Dr. Cabral, I am curious if you have any experience with long term effects of meningococcal meningitis. I had it when I was an infant and, from what I was told, it was very severe. I am now 28 and struggle with very poor gut motility and overall circulation, causing unbearable constipation/trapped gas and a multitude of of problems in cold weather with my hands and feet. I don't know if there is any connection between these problems and my illness as an infant, but it is really the only major trauma event that could have caused something. I exercise daily, get good sleep, and eat extremely clean. I've tried cutting out nearly every type of food to see if there was a culprit on my plate, but to no avail. I've seen every doctor, ran FM more labs than I can afford, and am still left confused. Danica: Hi Dr. Cabral! I was recently diagnosed with adenomyosis. I can't find much in your past podcasts about it, so I was hoping you could talk a little about ideas for natural remedies. The main treatments are hysterectomy and uterine artery embolization, neither of which I want to do. I appreciate you! Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral, last 2 years I've had painful cystic acne on my upper back, many UTIs, & earlier this year I got impetigo around my mouth at the same time as I was battling hand food mouth. also get athletes foot in winter. Because of these issues, I've been thinking I maybe have a staphylococcus bacteria problem as this seems to be what many functional medicine drs believe can cause cystic acne. Candida metabolic vitamins test didn't seem to show elevated bacterial markers, but showed my vitamin C level at zero. Other labs showed CRP is at 16. I'm 34 & eat well, but stressed with small kids. In 2021, my cortisol was flatlined low all day. My TSH is borderline hyper. Question: 1) what are your thoughts? 2) what type of lab test can I run to specifically check for a staph infection? Shannon: Hi Dr. Cabral, I appreciate your time and insight and have enjoyed learning so much from you on these podcasts. My twelve year old son has been having chronic headaches for at least 5 months now. In addition, he had alopecia post C in 2020 (his hair has mostly grown back now however his upper eyelashes are still missing), plus allergies to dust, mold, cats, dogs, grass, and some trees. He is congested with very poor sense of smell all the time. I am beginning to think his headaches are due to sinusitis and possibly that his eyelashes aren't growing back because of the constant inflammation in his eyes. I would appreciate any advice as to how to help him. I have him on Quercitin , Vit. C and nettle tea already. Thank you.

Nova Scotia Public Health officials are investigating the death of a Saint Mary's University student who they suspect had meningococcal meningitis. To talk about the disease and possible preventive measures we reached Dr. Jesse Kancir with Nova Scotia Health.
Meningococcal is a word that can strike fear in the heart of parents. The disease can have potentially devastating impacts and researchers are concerned about a rise in case numbers so far this year in Australia. They want parents to be on the lookout for early warning signs and to better understand how to prevent and treat meningococcal.

The Health Minister is touting the prospect of more meningococcal vaccinations thanks to the government's extra funding for the medicines-buying agency, Pharmac. It could be included in the childhood immunisation schedule from next year, and for young people living in halls, dorms, and prisons. That's up for consultation at the moment. Health Minister Andrew Little spoke to Māni Dunlop.
Pharmac is consulting on widening access to the Meningococcal B vaccine Bexsero and put it on the childhood immunisation schedule. The drug buying agency also wants to run a catch-up programme for children up to 5 and young people aged 13-to-25 years old who are in close-living situations such as hostels or dorms. The Meningitis Foundation welcomes the news but says the vaccine which would protect against disability and death should be made available free of charge universally. A Trustee of the Meningitis Foundation Pete Rowlands spoke to Māni Dunlop.
On today's episode we have two inspiring patient stories. First is Janet's story. Janet had brain aneurysm on March 22, 2004 while walking her dog.

Next, Chris shares the story of when he was performing in a church in London over years ago and caught Meningococcal meningitis, which led to a hospitalization for coma and a near death experience.

Tom Nash was 19 years old when he fell terribly ill with meningococcal septicemia, and all his limbs were amputated. After he learned to walk again on prosthetic legs and began to navigate life with hooks for arms, he built a new life as a nightclub DJ
One of the top DJs in Australia is armless! Tom Nash, aka DJ Hookie, lost all of his limbs due to meningococcal disease 20 years ago and claims that living as a "pirate" since has required throwing yourself into the deep end. Choosing legitimate hooks for prosthetic hands Hookie has welcomed children's inquisitiveness, shunned support networks, and carved himself an unique path in the music industry—even relearning the guitar. With humour and humility, this episode illustrates what the world has to offer anyone who's willing to put their hooks up!
