La Journée mondiale contre la polio rassemble les membres du Rotary, les défenseurs de la santé publique et tous ceux engagés pour un monde sans poliomyélite, afin de reconnaître les progrès et de renforcer les efforts pour éradiquer la maladie. Observée le 24 octobre, cette journée sensibilise à l'importance de la vaccination et rappelle les actions menées pour éliminer la polio dans le monde. Bien que la poliomyélite soit aujourd'hui absente à Maurice, le virus sauvage reste endémique en Afghanistan et au Pakistan, et certains variants réapparaissent dans des régions où les campagnes vaccinales ont été perturbées. Le District Governor du Rotary, Bernard Leong Son, rappelle que la vaccination demeure essentielle même sans cas sur le territoire, soulignant que certaines personnes à Maurice vivent encore avec les séquelles de la maladie. Plusieurs activités ont été organisées à Maurice pour marquer cette journée et réaffirmer l'engagement du Rotary et de ses partenaires dans la lutte contre la poliomyélite.

Today is World Polio Day, marking global efforts to eradicate poliomyelitis. Despite progress, the fight against polio continues, with vaccination campaigns and community engagement playing a crucial role. The World Health Organization's European Region was declared polio-free in 2002 and has maintained this status since. Elvis Presslin will be discussing the importance of polio vaccination and the progress made so far with Okon Abdi Guhad, a Kenyan polio survivor and community champion

Le monde va-t-il se débarrasser de la poliomyélite ? L'Afghanistan et le Pakistan sont les deux seuls pays où le virus de la polio reste endémique. Malgré les campagnes de vaccination nationale et l'aide internationale chapeautée par l'OMS, ces deux États n'ont pas réussi à enrayer la transmission de la maladie. En Afghanistan, deux régions restent des foyers de propagation : l'est du pays, densément peuplé, et le sud, très conservateur, où les campagnes de vaccination ne reçoivent pas l'adhésion totale des autorités. Jusqu'en 2022-2023, l'Afghanistan a fait des progrès importants vers l'éradication complète de la polio, avant de connaître une recrudescence de cas. Les expulsions massives d'Afghans depuis le Pakistan font craindre une augmentation supplémentaire dans les prochains mois. Une campagne de vaccination a été organisée à Kunar, province récemment sinistrée par un séisme et proche de la frontière pakistanaise. De notre correspondante à Kunar, Margot Davier À Dar-i-noor, depuis quelques jours, les équipes s'activent à plein régime pour rassembler les enfants de moins de 5 ans éligibles au vaccin contre la polio. Les sites de vaccination, particulièrement rudimentaires, comme ici au milieu des vaches, sont déployés dans chaque localité. Un représentant de l'OMS, désireux de rester anonyme, témoigne : « Donc, nous avons trois personnes dans notre équipe. L'un d'entre eux est un mobilisateur. C'est une femme. Elle va de maison en maison, et grâce à l'aide de la communauté, elle essaie de conduire les enfants à ce site, depuis leurs maisons. Et ce site, si nous regardons le plan, correspond à trois maisons. Dix enfants sont associés à ces habitations. » Les femmes jouent un rôle crucial pour sensibiliser les familles, comme l'explique Najibullah, l'un des vaccinateurs : « Les femmes se rendent directement au sein des maisons et peuvent s'adresser aux mères de familles, elles les invitent à se rendre sur les centres de vaccination. Les femmes sont vraiment importantes. Avant que la campagne ne commence, cette mobilisatrice sociale se rend dans les maisons, met à jour les registres. Si des bébés sont nés, s'il y a de nouveaux arrivants, surtout en ce moment, les listes changent rapidement. Par exemple, avant, il y avait cinq enfants dans cette maison, maintenant, il y en a sept. » Vaccination orale et injectable pour une efficacité de la campagne Dans les provinces les plus conservatrices du pays, à Helmand et Kandahar, au sud, les femmes n'ont pas le droit de participer aux campagnes. En conséquence, les résultats sont beaucoup plus faibles qu'à l'Est. À Kunar, 97% des équipes accueillent au moins une femme. 98% des enfants devraient être vaccinés à la fin de la campagne. Une petite fille arrive justement avec son père, elle fait la grimace. « Normalement, on ne donne qu'un vaccin oral pour cette campagne. On fait le vaccin oral, mais aussi le vaccin injectable. » C'est la première fois que les deux vaccins sont utilisés en même temps pour renforcer l'efficacité de la campagne. La petite fille voit deux de ses ongles coloriés au feutre noir. Cette marque sert à distinguer les enfants vaccinés des autres. La densité de population, les faibles conditions d'hygiène et la malnutrition sont des facteurs de transmission, selon le responsable de l'OMS. « Malheureusement, la plupart de ces facteurs existent à l'est du pays. C'est pourquoi nous sommes plus exposés aux risques ou plus susceptibles de contracter ce virus. Donc, nous menons davantage de campagnes ici. À l'Est, nous avons noué des partenariats avec nos collègues de Wash pour améliorer les conditions sanitaires et d'hygiène dans les zones les plus problématiques. » Quatre cas de polio ont été recensés en Afghanistan depuis le début de l'année.

Hii leo jaridani tunakuletea mada kwa kina inayoangazia siku ya Umoja wa Mataifa na tutasikia kutoka mashinani wananchi na asasi za kiraia zina yapi ya kusema kuhusu shirika hili kubwa na la kipekee linalounganisha nchi wanachama 193 duniani.Mashirika manne ya Umoja wa Mataifa lile la uhamiaji IOM, la kuhudumia wakimbizi UNHCR, la Kuhudumia watoto UNICEF na la mpango wa chakula duniani WFP leo yametoa wito wa dharura kwa dunia kuchukua hatua mara moja kukabiliana na janga la kibinadamu linaloongezeka nchini Sudan. Zaidi ya watu milioni 30 wanahitaji msaada, nchini humo wakiwemo watoto milioni 15 na wakimbizi karibu milioni moja.Mahakama ya Kimataifa ya Haki (ICJ) jana Oktoba 22 ilisema Israeli lazima itimize majukumu yake kama “anayekalia kimabavu” kwa kuhakikisha kuwa msaada unaweza kupita bila vizuizi na kwa kuheshimu haki za Umoja wa Mataifa na mashirika mengine ya kibinadamu yanayofanya kazi katika Ardhi ya Palestina Iliyokaliwa kwa Mabavu. Katibu Mkuu wa Umoja wa Mataifa António Guterres ameelezea maoni hayo ya ICJ kuwa “muhimu sana,” akiongeza kuwa yametolewa wakati ambapo Umoja wa Mataifa unafanya kila juhudi kuongeza kasi ya misaada kuingia Gaza baada ya kusitishwa kwa mapigano.Nchini Kenya, wahudumu wa afya waliokuwa wakisubiri hadi siku 15 kupata malipo sasa wanapokea pesa ndani ya saa 72 pekee, shukrani kwa mfumo mpya wa malipo ya kidijitali uliotolewa na Shirika la Sfya la Umoja wa Mataifa WHO na Wizara ya Afya ya nchi hiyo. Mfumo huu unapeleka fedha moja kwa moja kwenye pochi za simu za wafanyakazi, ukipunguza ucheleweshaji, gharama na kuongeza motisha. Wafanyakazi zaidi ya 120,000 sasa wanafaidika, kuboresha ufanisi wa kampeni za chanjo na juhudi za kudhibiti polio.Mwenyeji wako ni Anold Kayanda, karibu!

Several preventable diseases are experiencing a resurgence due to declining vaccination rates. These include:  Diphtheria: A bacterial infection that can lead to a thick membrane in the throat and respiratory failure.  Tuberculosis: A bacterial infection that can affect the lungs and other organs.  Chickenpox: A viral infection that can cause blisters and scarring.  Polio: A viral disease that can cause paralysis.  Measles: This highly contagious virus can lead to serious complications, including pneumonia and encephalitis.  Mumps: A viral infection that can cause swelling of the salivary glands and complications such as meningitis.  Rubella: A viral infection that can cause birth defects in pregnant women.  Pertussis (whooping cough): A bacterial infection that can cause severe coughing fits and respiratory problems, especially in infants.  It's important to note that these diseases can also spread among vaccinated individuals, but the vaccines significantly reduce the risk of infection and its severity.   

Jaridani leo jaridani tunakuletea mad akwa kina inayoangazia mjadala Mkuu wa mkutano wa Baraza Kuu la Umoja wa Mataifa. Pia tunakuletea muhtasari wa habari na ufafanuzi wa neno la wiki.Tume ya Uchunguzi ya Umoja wa Mataifa imesema Israel imetekeleza mauaji ya kimbari Gaza. Ripoti ya tume hiyo hiyo iliyotolewa leo mjini Geneva pia inamtaja Waziri Mkuu Benjamin Netanyahu na maafisa wengine wakuu wa Israel kwa kuchochea vitendo hivyo. Israel imepinga vikali, na kuuita ripoti hiyo kuwa ni “kashfa.” Taarifa hii imetolewa huku mashambulizi makali ya anga yakiendelea usiku kucha mjini Gaza bila dalili za kukoma.Hapa makao makuu ya Umoja wa Mataifa, shirika hilo limekamilisha makadirio mapya ya bajeti ya mwaka 2026, yakionesha kupunguzwa kwa zaidi ya dola milioni 500. Hatua hiyo ni sehemu ya mpango wa mageuzi ya UN80, unaolenga kuongeza ufanisi wakati Umoja wa Mataifa ukiadhimisha miaka 80. Bajeti mpya inapendekeza kupunguzwa kwa rasilimali kwa zaidi ya asilimia 15 na nafasi za kazi kwa karibu asilimia 19 ikilinganishwa na mwaka 2025.Huko Nairobi, Kenya leo imezindua maabara ya kisasa ya polio iliyoidhinishwa na Shirika la Afya la Umoja wa Mataifa Duniani WHO katika Taasisi ya Utafiti wa Tiba ya Kenya, KEMRI. Kituo hicho, kilichofadhiliwa na WHO na wakfu wa  Gates, kimeelezwa kuwa nyenzo muhimu katika kugundua mapema na kukabiliana na virusi vya polio pamoja na magonjwa mengine yenye uwezekano wa kusambaa, si tu nchini Kenya bali pia katika kanda nzima ya Afrika.Na katika kujifunza lugha ya Kiswahili hii leo,  mtaalam wetu Onni Sigalla, Mhariri mwandamizi wa Baraza la Kiswahili la Taifa nchini Tanzania, BAKITA, anafafanua maana za neno "MJOLI"Mwenyeji wako ni Leah Mushi, karibu!

RFK Jr.'s testimony in the Senate Finance Committee is a total sh*t show. RFK didn't mention who was president in 2020. RFK didn't know how many Americans died of COVID. West coast states announced healthcare alliance. Tiny Trump blames AI for window tossing video. Florida Surgeon General announces an end to ALL vaccine mandates, including Polio! Epstein Survivors rallied at the Capitol yesterday. Did Donald order military flyovers to disrupt the rally? Is Jim Comer ratf*cking Donald? ADP reports anemic 54,000 jobs added in August.

Today's Headlines: Epstein survivors demanded the full release of government files on his trafficking network. Haley Robson, abused by both Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, stressed the issue isn't political and called out banks that looked the other way while Epstein moved huge sums of cash. Survivors also noted Epstein's favorite brag: his friendship with Trump. In response, Trump staged a loud military flyover to drown them out, held his own Oval Office event with Poland's new right-wing president, and again dismissed the survivors' claims as a “hoax”—despite warning GOP lawmakers the night before that forcing DOJ to release the files would be an act of betrayal. Meanwhile, China's massive military parade rolled out thousands of troops and cutting-edge weapons for Xi, Putin, Kim Jong-un, and two dozen other world leaders. Putin even floated meeting Zelensky in Moscow, though given Russia's use of North Korean fighters in Ukraine, that seems like a stretch. Back home, the latest jobs report shows more unemployed Americans than job openings for the first time since 2021. A federal judge also smacked down the Trump administration's $2.6B in Harvard research funding cuts, calling them retaliation dressed up as “antisemitism” concerns. Florida went full Wild West on public health, ending vaccine mandates for all childhood diseases—measles, polio, the works—while the state's surgeon general bizarrely compared mandates to slavery. And in tech news, Oura's new partnership with the Department of Defense sparked consumer concern about data-sharing, though the company insists civilian users' info won't be touched.

With the dismantling of the CDC, who will step up to provide science-based public health guidance to the U.S. and the world? Will it be states? Will it be entrepreneurs? Will it be providers? Will it be foundations? David W. Johnson and Julie Murchinson speculate on, “Come for the Sunshine, Stay for the Polio,” the new episode of the 4sight Health Roundup podcast, moderated by David Burda.

Episode: 2790 The Dynamics of Vaccine Scares.  Today, let's talk about vaccine scares.

Today on part two the Rarified Heir Podcast, we continue our conversation with Sharyn Felder, daughter of the late, great songwriter Doc Pomus and trust us, this episode is as jam packed and fun-filled as part one from last week. Last week we spoke to Sharyn on the release day of a new box set of her father's music, You Can't Hip a Square: The Doc Pomus Songwriting Demos on Omnivore Recordings, a six-CD set of lost, archival tracks. We continue that conversation today and learn that there just may be more tracks in her father's archive that have never been released co-written by a very famous musician from New Orleans. We also hear more about her father's second career as a card player when the royalty money dried up in the 1970s and the characters who inhabited that word – the mobsters, the octogenarians, the hypochondriacs, the gun-toting security and more. We also learned why the games stopped (take a guess) and how Doc began the second phase of his songwriting career, years after his career started. Sharyn's colorful stories on this episode include two very popular music business folks who absolutely hated each other, Doc Pomus' connection to a massive film in the 1970s that launched a comedy duo and became part of pop culture icons, how a bathhouse singer gained massive fame via Doc's help but never acknowledged it publicly and much more. Part two is every bit as good as part one as you will hear right now on this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast. Everyone has a story.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Andrew Wakefield, physician-turned-filmmaker and one of the most controversial voices in modern medicine. From his early days as a gastroenterologist in the UK to becoming an outspoken critic of vaccine policy, Andy shares the story of how listening to parents and pursuing uncomfortable questions about children's health ultimately cost him his profession, country, and medical license. Andy and I discuss the rise in autism diagnoses, the explosion of the vaccine schedule, and the erosion of public trust in health authorities—alongside the role of media, censorship, and film in shaping public awareness.Whether you agree with him or not, Andy's perspective challenges us to confront uncomfortable questions about integrity, power, and responsibility in medicine. It's a conversation about courage, conviction, and what it takes to speak out when the stakes are at their highest.

Send us a textIn this special, two part travelogue, we take you along with our host through Atlanta and south west Georgia as we visit several of the most historic spots in the nation. In this first episode we head into Atlanta and visit the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library. We will look back on some of the major accomplishments of the Carter years and some of his post Presidency work helping with elections, eradicating diseases, and continuing to teach Sunday School in his local Church. We will in this visit show you around the museum and relive a few of these special moments. Then we will drive about five minutes down the street to visit the Martin Luther King Jr National Historic Site run by the National Park Service. It encapsulates an entire Atlanta neighborhood and features the historic Church, Ebenezer Baptist Church, where Dr. King served as an assistant Pastor alongside his father. It also includes his boyhood home and an extraordinary museum about his life where you can see his Nobel Peace Prize. In fact, Atlanta boasts one of the few places where you can see two Nobel Peace Prizes on display with in five minutes of each other between Dr. King and President Carter. You can tour the Ebenezer Baptist Church, and the King Center, and walk down by the reflecting pool and Eternal Flame where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and his wife Coretta Scott King are entombed. It is an extraordinary Historic Site and we hope you will tune in and learn about the Civil Right Era that was born here in this Atlanta neighborhood. Then in our next episode, we will head out into rural Georgia to visit the historic Little White House where Franklin D. Roosevelt stayed off and on for 21 years as he fought to recover from his debilitating Polio illness, and we will also visit the small southern , rural , Georgia town that Rosalyn & Jimmy Carter called home, Plains.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

He dismantles modern medicine's war on germs, exposing how severed ties to nature's code fuel chronic disease and societal collapse. From the biological necessity of kissing to the myth of genetic destiny, Maready's radical insights challenge everything you know about health. Join us for a mind-bending journey into the Great Restoration, where touch, community, and ancient wisdom could heal our fractured world. Prepare to rethink life itself. GUEST: Forrest Maready is a provocative author and renegade thinker challenging the foundations of modern medicine. With The Reason We Kiss, he introduces syntropy—a unifying force connecting life's biological, social, and cosmic threads.

In 1952, polio was everywhere: killing or paralyzing roughly half a million people annually. Yet just 10 years later, paralytic polio cases in the US dropped by 96% and we were on track to get rid of polio for good. But in recent years, the virus started striking back. So, what's behind these recent spikes? Explore the dangers of poliovirus and the possibility of eradicating this deadly disease. [Directed by Anton Bogaty, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Stephen LaRosa].After the talk, Shoshana interviews Dr. Grace Lee, a pediatric infectious diseases physician and the former Chair of the U.S. Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, to cover how vaccine decisions get made and the ripple effects it has on communities.Want to help shape TED's shows going forward?

While Sydney welcomes African-American entertainers, Moree bans Aboriginal Australians from exercising their human rights on the land that's always been their home. But this regressive act will have progressive consequences… eventually. Plus, while Australia plans to vaccinate against polio and the government commits ground forces to a war in Asia, the manhunt for escaped murderer Patrick Platts reaches a climax.

A mysterious disease called acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) has been appearing in emergency rooms for about a decade. The disease has caused otherwise healthy children to lose the ability to move their arms and legs, and some become completely paralyzed. AFM is caused by a virus that's a cousin of the polio virus, earning it the nickname "the new polio.” Journalist and physician Eli Cahan joins Host Flora Lichtman to explain what doctors have been observing, the research efforts toward developing a vaccine, and what this emerging disease reveals about our readiness for future outbreaks and pandemics.Read Cahan's article about what fighting this “new polio” might look like as our healthcare infrastructure gets dismantled.And, learning more about some non-cancerous cells may help researchers better understand how cancer progresses. When you think about how cancer spreads in the body, you're probably thinking about cancer cells—they divide uncontrollably, form into tumors, and hide from the immune system. So, it makes sense that studying the behavior of these cells is critical to our understanding of cancer. But now, researchers are looking more closely at the non-cancerous cells that co-exist within tumors and the surrounding tissues. They make up what's called the “colocateome.” Taking this more holistic approach to cancer research may help explain why some treatments don't work for all patients, and eventually may lead to more effective therapies. To better understand this expanding field, Host Ira Flatow talks with Sylvia Plevritis, a Stanford University cancer researcher. Guests:Dr. Eli Cahan is a journalist and physician based in Boston, Massachusetts.Dr. Sylvia Plevritis is a professor of biomedical data science and radiology at Stanford University.Transcript is available on sciencefriday.com.

Energy with a grain of saltResearchers have developed a new sodium metal powered fuel cell with up to triple the output for its weight of a lithium-ion battery. The team from  MIT, including Yet-Ming Chiang, think these fuel cells could have enormous potential for electric vehicles — including flight. They say sodium can be electrically produced from salt on a large scale to facilitate this technology. The research was published in the journal Joule.Plants hear their pollinators, and produce sweet nectar in responseA new study has found that plants can respond to the distinctive vibrations of pollinating insects by activating sugar-producing genes to produce rich nectar. In contrast they respond to the sound of nectar-stealing non-pollinators by cutting back on sugar. Francesca Barbero, from the University of Turin in Italy, presented this work at a recent joint meeting of the Acoustical Society of America and 25th International Congress on Acoustics.Penguin poop helps create the cooling clouds over Antarctica Penguin guano is rich in ammonia, and when it accumulates in penguin rookeries in Antarctica, that ammonia is released into the atmosphere, encouraging cloud production. Those clouds reflect sunlight into space, but can also trap sunlight reflected from the ice, so have complex climate interactions. This connection was discovered by University of Helsinki researcher Matthew Boyer, and was published in the journal Nature.Giant sloth family tree suggests trees are just a recent part of itSloths used to be giants the size of bears and even elephants before disappearing around 12,000 years ago. An international group of paleontologists including University of Toronto's Gerry De Iuliis have assembled a comprehensive family tree of the sloth to understand how a group that used to dominate the landscape was winnowed away to only a handful of relatively small, tree dwelling species. The research was published in the journal Science.Eradicating diseases — Can we wipe out ancient and modern plagues forever?In 1980 the World Health Organization declared Smallpox officially eradicated, meaning that for the first time, a plague that killed hundreds of millions of people had been eliminated by human ingenuity. It opened the question of whether we could do this for other lethal threats? We look at efforts to eradicate Polio, an ancient plague, and HIV, a more modern epidemic, to understand how researchers are trying to eradicate these diseases , how close they've come, and what's preventing their final victory.Quirks spoke to Stan Houston, an infectious disease specialist and professor of medicine and public health at the University of Alberta in Edmonton. He's worked on treating HIV and tuberculosis in places such as Zimbabwe, South Sudan, Ecuador and Alberta.Catherine Hankins was the chief scientific adviser for the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS in Geneva, Switzerland. And in 2013, she was named to the Order of Canada and in 2023 was inducted in the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame.

It would start with a headache, a fever, maybe a funny tummy. But soon enough your knee would give out, or your arm would hang limp, or you would struggle to breathe. You'd be taken to the hospital, where you'd get your diagnosis - polio. If you survived, you ran the risk of doing so with paralyzed limbs, struggling to walk on bulky leg braces. Your parents would be terrified they might lose you, and so everybody wanted the one thing that could stop all of this - a vaccine.

Last week, we shared Part 1 of Joseph “Joe Lupo” Rulli's story. You learned about his rise in the boxing world at a young age, his battle with Polio that tragically ended his career too soon, and Joe's eventual rise within the mafia. For a while, things were looking good for Joe, but by April of 1971, a mafia turf war was raging. Several of Joe's associates, including his partner, had been murdered. Joe was warned that he was next. He was a marked man.In the weeks leading up to his disappearance, Joe had a tense encounter at his doorstep. FBI agents, along with his older brother, Dennis, an investigator for the New Jersey State Police, offered Joe a way out: become an informant and receive protection. But Joe refused. He wasn't a rat.Not long after, Joe hosted a going-away dinner for one of his higher-ups. This event was supposed to mark a new chapter for him. But before the party even started, Joe stepped out for what he claimed was a quick errand, and he never returned. His wife, Cynthia, arrived at the party only to find her husband missing. A wave of panic washed over her. Cynthia had been at home when the FBI had approached Joe, offering him protection. She understood the gravity of the situation and the danger her husband was in.In the days that followed, Cynthia reported Joe missing. His car was later found riddled with bullets and soaked in blood. It looked like a textbook mafia hit. When Joe's brother, Dennis, arrived on the scene, he assumed he would find Joe's body in the trunk, but all he found were Easter baskets filled with melted candy. There was no body. And the blood? It wasn't Joe's. It was animal blood.This discovery turned the case on its head. It was no longer a simple mafia hit. The possibility emerged that Joe had orchestrated his own escape. Had he secretly taken the FBI's offer to start a new life? Did a family member help him slip away undetected while everyone else partied? Or had Joe been murdered, and someone staged the scene with animal blood?These questions have haunted Joe's son for decades. By bringing his father's story to light, he hopes someone with answers will finally step forward and help solve this decades-old mystery.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Joseph "Joe Lupo" Rulli, please contact the New Jersey State Police Missing Persons Unit at (609) 882-2000 ext. 2554 or email missingpinformation@njsp.gov. You can also reach out to Joe directly at lupo144@aol.com.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramTwitterPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
