Even to this day, the health and wellness communities are unaware of the hidden epidemic. The medical communities are unaware, the trendy bio hack communities are unaware and the health authorities are unaware. The hidden epidemic isn't the Covid virus, it's the stealth viruses that have invaded humankind in the last 100 years by design of classified medical research and science, the very body of science that engineered the Covid virus and every flu virus since the early 1900's. Stealth viruses such as the Epstein-Barr virus, shingles virus and more have been making life hell for millions on Planet Earth. These viruses, along with others, have caused everything from thyroid disease to chronic fatigue syndrome and hundreds of symptoms. In this episode, learn how the hidden epidemic works...   In this episode… Learn what the hidden epidemic is and when and how it started. See how the health industry doesn't understand chronic illness or the true causes. Discover what neurotoxins are and how they affect the body. Find out how there are many different varieties of viruses and how someone can carry around multiple varieties inside them. Learn how strep works and what causes acne.

Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are valuable given their broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and their high penetration into various tissues. Yet FQs have also caused concern, with some market withdrawals, important and sometimes long-lasting adverse drug events, and substantial collateral effects on the microbiota. In this episode of Communicable, hosts Emily McDonald and Thomas Tängdén invite Staffan Tevell (Karlstad, Sweden) and Bernadette Young (Oxford, UK) to weigh in on the pro-con debate of FQ use, especially for periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs), which can entail longer treatment durations. They review the standard of care for PJIs, including FQs in combination with rifampicin vs other antibiotic combinations, the impact of the OVIVA trial advocating for early oral switch strategies, the long list of rare but important side effects, and how best to preserve FQs for clinical indications that most need them.      This episode is a follow-up from Tevell and Young's recently published systematic review of the role of FQs in PJIs [1]. It was edited by Kathryn Hostettler and peer reviewed by Ljiljana Lukić of University Hospital for Infectious Diseases in Zagreb, Croatia. The executive producer of Communicable is Angela Huttner. ReferencesTevell S, et al. To heal or harm: A systematic review of the role of fluoroquinolones in periprosthetic joint infections.

In a conversation that peels back layers of both fiction and reality, Michael Ball demonstrates why Adelaide sits at the heart of Australia’s intelligence network while his character Zoe Baird navigates a bio-terror plot during a pop concert. Ball’s journey from RAAF intelligence sergeant to published author reveals the hidden world of modern espionage, where accountants and IT managers pose greater threats than gun-wielding operatives, and where Adelaide’s unassuming facade masks its role as a significant intelligence hub. The SA Drink of the Week delivers a genuine surprise as Bickford’s new sugar-free cordial range passes the ultimate test of a self-proclaimed “super taster” who typically rejects artificial sweeteners. These magnificent recreations using fruit juice concentrate and stevia prove that innovation can honour tradition without compromise. Our Musical Pilgrimage celebrates the decade that defined a generation with Denim and Stripes, an original eighties anthem crafted for radio newsreader extraordinnaire, Mel Usher, weaving together Madonna’s Adelaide Oval concert memories with the fashion and music that shaped an era.

Running Sheet: Bomb Plot At Adelaide Oval With Michael Ball 00:00:00 Intro Introduction 00:03:43 SA Drink Of The Week This week’s SA Drinks Of The Week, are the five flavours available in Bickford’s new sugar-free cordial range. When Sofia from Bickford’s reached out offering samples of their new sugar-free cordial range, my immediate instinct was decline. As a self-proclaimed super taster with hypersensitive olfactory sensors, artificial sweeteners typically leave a metallic, clingy aftertaste that ruins any drinking experience. My honesty about this aversion only strengthened Sofia’s determination to prove these products different. The verdict: these cordials are magnificent. Released during Dry July, Bickford’s has achieved something remarkable with their five-flavour range including lime juice, lemon juice, tropical, lemon lime bitters, and raspberry. Using fruit juice concentrate for flavour and a naturally derived stevia blend for sweetness, they’ve eliminated the telltale artificial aftertaste that plagues most sugar-free alternatives. The lime cordial, crucial to get right given Bickford’s heritage, delivers authentic citrus punch without compromise. The raspberry, typically the most challenging flavour to recreate without leaving tanginess from artificial substitutes, tastes indistinguishable from its sugared counterpart. At just eight calories per serve and available nationally through Coles, these cordials prove that innovation can honour tradition. For anyone who’s sworn off sugar-free beverages after previous disappointments, these warrant one more attempt. 00:08:18 Michael Ball Michael Ball’s entrance into our studio carries the quiet confidence of someone who spent over a decade analysing threats most of us never consider. His latest novel drops readers directly into Adelaide Oval during a terrorist attack, but this isn’t mere sensationalism. Ball knows something most South Australians don’t: our seemingly sleepy state operates as a genuine intelligence hotbed. “Adelaide is a hotbed of intelligence and spies,” Ball reveals, explaining how military intelligence units, research facilities, and cutting-edge technology create exactly the environment where modern espionage thrives. “Spies these days aren’t James Bond running in with guns. If you’re doing that, something’s gone horribly wrong.” Today’s intelligence operatives work as accountants and IT managers, quietly extracting data without dramatic car chases or explosions that would signal operational failure. The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Ball explains his role as an intelligence analyst, serving as the enemy’s representative in planning rooms. Using empathy as a weapon, analysts must think like adversaries to provide decision superiority. “You cannot climb Mount Everest without climbing all the other hills and mountains beforehand,” he explains when discussing resilience, connecting military discipline to the broader challenges facing young people today. Ball’s path to writing began during a severe mental health episode, part of the PTSD that affects many intelligence veterans. His wife’s challenge that “you always give up” sparked the determination to complete his fantasy novel, but it was watching his three-year-old daughter enjoy Taylor Swift that triggered the darker inspiration for Zoe Baird’s story. The bastard in him, as he puts it, wondered what would happen if someone deployed a bio-weapon at such an event. The author’s approach to character development draws directly from his intelligence training. Writing 14-year-old Zoe required the same psychological profiling skills he used to understand enemy mindsets. Listening to Paramore songs on repeat for ten days, Ball immersed himself in the emotional landscape of his protagonist, creating a character his daughter could admire when older. “I wanted this to be a character that my daughter can read when she’s older and want to be like,” Ball explains. Zoe succeeds not through superhuman abilities but through intelligence, resourcefulness, and resilience. She fails frequently but continues forward, embodying the same qualities Ball taught in his military leadership workshops. Ball’s current work with Disaster Relief Australia provides another lens through which to understand his writing. Veterans flock to disaster zones because “a disaster zone is just a war zone without bullets,” offering familiar territory where they can serve again while processing their own trauma. The organisation’s research proves that helping others reduces PTSD symptoms, creating a positive cycle of service and recovery. The author’s workshops in schools teach failure as a learning tool, using intelligence concepts like center of gravity to help students identify what truly matters in their goals. His four-stage failure framework helps young people understand that most setbacks stem from unclear goals, changing circumstances, bad advice, or lack of proper support systems.

Zoe Baird’s: Popstars & Pathogens on Amazon. 01:34:09 Musical Pilgrimage In the Musical Pilgrimate, we play a track by Steve Davis & The Virtualosos, Denim & Stripes, a new 80’s anthem written for Adelaide newsreader, Mel Usher. Adelaide Oval’s role as the setting for Michael Ball’s fictional terrorist attack connects to its reality as a venue for major international artists, from Madonna and the Rolling Stones to Adele and Pink. This link to pop culture stardom provides the perfect bridge to celebrate one of South Australia’s most recognisable media personalities. Radio newsreader Mel Usher’s recent milestone birthday revealed her status as an absolute tragic for eighties culture. Her social media shares about denim, stripes, and the decade’s distinctive fashion aesthetic sparked inspiration for a collaborative tribute. Steve wrote the song and then used his virtual session band, Steve Davis & The Virtualosos to bring it to life, crafting an eighties anthem that weaves together the era’s defining musical and fashion elements. “Denim and Stripes” celebrates everything that made the decade memorable: the fashion choices we now view with nostalgic affection, the music that defined a generation, and the unapologetic embrace of style over subtlety. From peroxide tips to padded shoulders and acid-wash, the song captures the decade’s spirit for anyone who lived through or appreciates that transformative period in popular culture. The track is now available across all streaming platforms, serving as both a birthday tribute to Mel and a broader celebration of the decade that continues to influence contemporary style and sound.Support the show: https://theadelaideshow.com.au/listen-or-download-the-podcast/adelaide-in-crowd/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, we're going to talk about poop shape and color, and address gut warning signs in your stool. Normal poop should be brown and sausage-shaped. Small, hard, pellet-shaped poop indicates that something may be wrong higher up in the digestive tract.Soft stool indicates that you may have some missing microbes or food allergies. Pathogens can cause loose stool as your body tries to quickly eliminate them. Unfortunately, with diarrhea and liquid stool, good bacteria are also eliminated. Consume kefir or yogurt with blackberries to restore the good bacteria in your digestive tract. Thin, pencil or cigar-shaped stool signifies a problem in the colon. This could mean the colon is impacted, you have many polyps, or there's some obstruction in the bowels. You'd want to get this checked by a medical professional.Normal stools should be brown in color. If you have a problem with your liver or you have thickened bile or bile sludge in the bile ducts, your poop will be light-colored or gray. Floating stool that is also light-colored further confirms this problem.If your problem is linked to the pancreas, your stool will have a bad odor and may appear greasy. Rarely, this could be associated with cancer, but most of the time, it is caused by an overworked pancreas. Black stool is often a sign of something more serious, usually caused by oxidized blood. Blueberries and blackberries can also cause black stool. Beets can cause your stool to appear red. Hemorrhoids can cause red stool due to fresh blood. Collinsonia root is an excellent remedy for hemorrhoids. Green stool is usually caused by chlorophyll from vegetable consumption.It's not normal to poop once every 2 to 3 days. You should have a bowel movement 1 to 2 times daily. Intermittent fasting is the most important thing you can do for your digestive tract. Frequent eating is very problematic and never allows your digestive system the chance to reset.Incomplete digestion usually results from low stomach acid. Betaine hydrochloride is the best remedy for this problem. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting. He is the Director of Dr. Berg Nutritionals and author of the best-selling book The Healthy Keto Plan. He no longer practices, but focuses on health education through social media.

He is an evolutionary anthropologist whose principal focus is contemporary humans. His research currently focuses on a number of domains, including: emotions; disease avoidance; morality; prosociality and cooperation; conflict, aggression, and risk-taking; cultural transmission; food and eating; and sex and reproduction. In this episode, we first talk about physical formidability: what it is, and how it is assessed in men and women. We then talk about preferences for male muscularity, and how men can overestimate the degree of muscularity women prefer. We also discuss moral parochialism and moral condemnation. We talk about ectoparasites, disgust, and pathogen-avoidance. Finally, we discuss the link between pathogen-avoidance and political and social conservatism, and what explains the reactions of liberals and conservatives to the COVID-19 pandemic.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

New Zealand farmers use well over 3,000 tonnes of pesticide annually. But a new genomic study has discovered a way to potentially cut that by 80%. Using DNA sequencing technology, Lincoln University scientists believe it's possible to stop mass applications and instead switch to a targeted approach. Currently the project - led by Lincoln University Associate Professor Dr Chris Winefield - is focusing on vineyards

In this lively and informative episode, the Hort Culture team dives deep into the seasonal challenges facing Kentucky gardeners, particularly the rising threat of plant diseases during a historically cool and wet spring. Join Brett, Alexis, and Ray start for a chat about plant health and integrated pest management (IPM).Listeners get an in-depth look at the “disease triangle” — the key combination of a susceptible host, conducive environment, and active pathogen — and why this year's weather has been perfect for early disease outbreaks. The team shares real-world examples from tomatoes, zinnias, squash, and even bonsai trees, emphasizing the importance of timing, cultural practices, and preventative treatments.They clarify that “pesticide” is not a dirty word, breaking down the term to include both organic and conventional options, and reinforcing the necessity of following label instructions precisely. The conversation covers tools and equipment for small-scale spraying, the differences in approach between home gardeners and commercial growers, and why sometimes, even with the best practices, a plant may still succumb to disease — and that's okay.The episode closes with practical tips for identifying issues, using extension resources, scouting effectively, and leveraging tools like the UK Ag Weather app for disease alerts.Related Links & Resources: UK Ag Weather Center App Get real-time alerts on disease and weather conditions specific to Kentucky.

The Pathogens of Finance: How Capitalism Breeds Vector-Borne Disease (University of California Press, 2025) by Dr. Brent Z. Kaup & Dr. Kelly F. Austin is an exploration of how the rising power and profits of Wall Street underpin the contemporary increases in and inadequate responses to vector-borne disease. Over the past fifty years, insects have transmitted infectious diseases to humans with greater frequency and in more unexpected places. To examine this phenomenon, Dr. Kaup and Dr. Austin take readers to the exurban homes of northern Virginia; the burgeoning agricultural outposts of Mato Grosso, Brazil; and the smallholder coffee farms of the Bududa District of eastern Uganda. Through these case studies, the authors illuminate how the broader financialization of society is intimately intertwined with both the creation of landscapes more conducive to vector-borne disease and the failure to prevent and cure such diseases throughout the world. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Send us a textThe cutting edge of infectious disease control isn't just about vaccines or treatments—it's increasingly about data. Dr. Stephen Molldrem, Assistant Professor at the Institute for Bioethics and Health Humanities, takes us deep into the world of pathogen genomics and the remarkable ethical questions that emerge when we sequence disease-causing microorganisms.What happens when genetic analysis can potentially reveal who infected whom with HIV? Why do some communities welcome these technologies while others resist them? From the controversies surrounding HIV surveillance in America to the enthusiastic adoption of TB genomics in Botswana, Dr. Molldrem reveals how the same scientific tools can take on dramatically different meanings depending on context, trust, and community involvement.The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the global adoption of pathogen sequencing, bringing terms like "variants" and "mutations" into everyday conversation. But this technological revolution has also revealed deep inequities—when South African scientists identified the Omicron variant and transparently shared this information, their reward was travel bans rather than support. This pattern reveals how scientific advancement doesn't happen in a vacuum but within complex social and political realities.At the heart of Dr. Molldrem's work is a fundamental reminder: behind every genetic sequence is a person, a community, and a set of lived experiences. As one HIV advocacy slogan puts it, "We are people, not clusters." The challenge for public health isn't just implementing new technologies but doing so in ways that respect human dignity and build rather than undermine trust.Whether you're fascinated by the science of disease tracking, concerned about health privacy, or interested in how new technologies reshape our understanding of outbreaks, this episode offers a thought-provoking journey through the socio-technical landscape of modern infectious disease control. Join us as we explore what happens when cutting-edge science meets complex human realities.Thanks for listening to the Infectious Science Podcast.

The Pathogens of Finance: How Capitalism Breeds Vector-Borne Disease (University of California Press, 2025) by Dr. Brent Z. Kaup & Dr. Kelly F. Austin is an exploration of how the rising power and profits of Wall Street underpin the contemporary increases in and inadequate responses to vector-borne disease. Over the past fifty years, insects have transmitted infectious diseases to humans with greater frequency and in more unexpected places. To examine this phenomenon, Dr. Kaup and Dr. Austin take readers to the exurban homes of northern Virginia; the burgeoning agricultural outposts of Mato Grosso, Brazil; and the smallholder coffee farms of the Bududa District of eastern Uganda. Through these case studies, the authors illuminate how the broader financialization of society is intimately intertwined with both the creation of landscapes more conducive to vector-borne disease and the failure to prevent and cure such diseases throughout the world. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (06/04/2025): 3:05pm- During Tuesday's press briefing, Peter Doocy asked White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt about former President Joe Biden's reliance on the auto pen for pardons. Doocy's investigation concluded that Biden's authentic signature only appears on the former president's pardon of his son Hunter Biden. 3:10pm- New York City mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo doesn't know how to order bacon, egg, and cheese—and some New Yorkers are saying Cuomo should be disqualified for his awkward breakfast sandwich order! Rich suspects Cuomo will win the Democrat Party's nomination—and ultimately win the general election. But Cuomo's political ambitions don't end there—he's definitely interested in a 2028 presidential run. 3:20pm- On August 24th, 2021, then New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was forced to resign following a State Attorney General report which determined he sexually harassed multiple women—including state employees. Now, he is poised to become the next mayor of New York City. Is this quietly one of the most bizarre political comebacks in American history? It certainly demonstrates the Democrat Party's continued struggles to find quality candidates. 3:40pm- According to reports, two Chinese nationals affiliated with Michigan University have been charged with smuggling a biological pathogen into the United States. The pathogen, according to the FBI, “is responsible for billions of dollars in economic damage world-wide every year.” Fox News correspondent David Sprunt reports that the deadly fungus could be used for “agro-terrorism.” 4:00pm- A video released by the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party shows “two brave anti-Chinese Communist Party students” speaking out against a CCP Ambassador who inaccurately touted Chinese “democracy” during a Harvard University event last year. In response, the protesters were “assaulted,” according to the House Select Committee—but instead of punishing their attacker, Harvard reprimanded them for taking a stand against the CCP! 4:30pm- While appearing on Face the Nation with host Margaret Brennan, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the Trump Administration is not necessarily trying to “decouple” from China, but that the U.S. must “de-risk” from China. According to FBI estimates, China's intellectual property theft alone costs the U.S. economy between $225 billion and $600 billion annually. 4:40pm- Are we all going to turn into fungus people? Or is it fungi people? 5:05pm- Newly released documents suggest the Biden-era FBI's targeting of “traditionalist” Catholics was more wide-spread than initially believed. During congressional testimony, then-FBI Director Christopher Wray's claimed it was merely a single field office guilty of the offense—however, evidence now shows it extended to multiple FBI field offices. 5:15pm- Susan Crabtree—RealClearPolitics National Political Correspondent & Author of the book, “Fools Gold: The Radicals, Con Artists, and Traitors Who Killed the California Dream and Now Threaten Us All”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Newsom Administration officials holding closed door trade cooperation talks with Chinese officials, Chinese nationals charged with smuggling a biological pathogen, and former Acting Secret Service Director Ron Rowe is finally out after remaining on the payroll as a “senior advisor” for more than 4 months! You can find her book here: https://a.co/d/1g9qLKf. 5:40pm- Justin Kite—PragerU Kids Creative Director & former Public School Teacher—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his role in the creation of PragerU's Trailblazer book series.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is slowly creeping into daily life. And it's not just people using it for work. Some people are turning to it for therapy, while others are looking to it for medical diagnoses. Some are starting to regard it as a replacement for talking to a friend. This is all raising concerns over whether AI could lead to a new type of social pathogen that could even deepen the darker parts of human nature.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
