In this episode I facilitate a thought provoking discussion on the recent case of a former WHS Manager of the Queensland Museum being prosecuted after a worker caught Q-Fever. Special Guests for this discussion are Naomi Kemp (Chair of Australian Institute of Health and Safety), Georgia Henry (CEO/ Founder of Henry Reed), Nektarios Karanikas (Associate Professor of Health, Safety and the Environment at Queensland University of Technology) and Alan Girle (Special Counsel for Macpherson Kelley Law Firm).
An important and informative CattleCast where Kat Hart talks to Renzo Di Florio, a farm vet with a special interest in infectious diseases who transferred from practice to industry in 2022 to work with Ceva. He tells us about the diagnosis, symptoms, and treatment of Q Fever, also known as coxiellosis, a highly contagious bacterial disease that primarily effects cattle, sheep and goats. Join them to explore the most recent studies, consider management strategies, and gain an understanding of the zoonotic risk to farm vets.

Coxiella burnettii causes Q Fever, a zoonotic disease that is rarely acquired by humans. But Q Fever has a history of being developed as a bioweapon because of its ability to be spread by aerosols and cause debilitating but not lethal disease. Dr. Stacey Gilk is an Associate Professor at the University of Nebraska Medical Center who studies Coxiella. Dr. Gilk talks about what makes Q Fever a potential biothreat agent, how figuring out how to grow Coxiella outside of cells revolutionized the study of this bacterium that was thought to only grow intracellularly, how a large outbreak in the Netherlands led to the deaths of thousands of dairy goats, how cholesterol affects the ability of Coxiella to grow, how falling in love with Toxoplasma led her to pursue infectious disease research, and what a wonderful place Nebraska is to do science. This episode was supported by Gordo Sheepsay's My Dope Microscope, the kitchen appliance that may literally save your life. Participants: Karl Klose, Ph.D. (UTSA) Stacey Gilk, Ph.D. (Univ.

When the opportunity arose to interview Chris Thomas about his time of farming in the mid-north of South Australia during the great drought of 1982, not even flood-damaged roads could stop Steve from travelling to Crystal Brook to record the stories. Meanwhile, a different climate story was celebrated in Adelaide last week; 50 years of Seeley International and its mission to provide reliable, innovative, and affordable cooling to people everywhere. While we don't cover that story directly, there is a snippet in the introduction of Steve's recollection of the night at Ayers House, that uncovers a quirky bit of SA history. And as a board member of Radio 5mbs, Steve often listens to the station's Liston On Demand programs and during one recently he heard a song by local band, Suedan, that demanded to be played on this episode.

Oh, and here's our index of all episode in one concise page Running Sheet: Farming Through Drought 00:00:00 Intro Introduction to the show. This week this includes a recollection from the Seeley International 50th Anniversary dinnar at Ayers House, where Steve sat next to friend and client, Donald Kay, from Don Alan Pty Ltd. Steve mentioned this during his regular segment about small business on FIVEaa with Richard Pascoe, and it seems Donald will be hauled into FIVEaa before too long. However, Donald was mentioned because of some trivia about Sir Henry Ayers that he discovered and shared. Also, Steve recorded the rare and boisterous "Go Power" chant that Sir Frank Seeley is known for. He did a moderate version in front of the dignitaries on Wednesday night, which Steve captured for posterity. 00:00:00 SA Drink Of The Week No SA Drink Of The Week this week. It now an occasional segment when stellar beverages are discovered. 00:06:32 Chris Thomas One of Steve's clients, and a former guest from episode 353, Alex Thomas from the Plant A Seed For Farm Safety and Save A Life, Listen To Your Wife campaigns, was heading to Crystal Brook last week to see her father, farmer, Chris Thomas, who farmed during the dramatic 1982 drought. Given that Australia is currently experiencing flood, Steve thought it would be the perfect time to remind all of us of the extremes of nature that farmers need to contend with to keep us eating fresh food. Chris also got very ill during his farming career, due to Q Fever and a series of other complications, meaning Alex has had to care for him since she was 15; inspiring her to spearhead a down-to-earth farm safety business. She delivers talks and runs workshops all around Australia and as you'll hear in the interview with her dad, farmers have a certain mindset and make up which is all about "getting the job done" and not so much about "self care". That is changing but it's also how these dogged humans have been able to push through and craft farming enterprises to support society here in Australia. This is not an exhaustive documentation of farming or the drought; it is a story about passion and the eeking of a living in South Australia. 00:42:50 Musical Pilgrimage In the musical pilgrimage, we have One Day by Suedan. Steve heard this on River Blues, a blues program on Radio 5mbs, which you can listen to via their website or by subscribing in a podcast app (there are also jazz, world music, and classical programs). Suedan was formed by Sue Filmer and Danny Filmer in 2016 as a musical duo. They had played in bands for many years but never together. Although Sue Filmer and Danny Filmer had played in many bands before they had never played together. Steve first became aware of them while working with them through his business, Talked About Marketing, helping them set up their website. To then hear them on 5mbs with a song befitting the mood and tone of farming through drought was too much of a coincidence not to feature the song in this episode. Suedan produces roots and blues music, using cigar box guitars, cajun drums, blues harp, and vocals. Catch their music, check out their upcoming shows, and hire them, via their website, Suedan Music.Support the show: https://theadelaideshow.com.au/listen-or-download-the-podcast/adelaide-in-crowd/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Coxiella burnetii is the bacteria that causes coxiellosis in goats and Q-fever in humans, and although it is not super common, all goat owners need to be aware of it so that they can prevent their goats and themselves from being infected.Coxiellosis in goats is highly infectious and can cause abortion storms in herds. Humans can be infected via aerosols (like COVID), birth secretions, feces, and raw milk. This disease can be especially bad in pregnant women.In this episode, I am talking to infectious disease expert Dr. Charles Gaiser from the USDA about the transmission, symptoms, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of this devastating disease.Full show notes here -- https://thriftyhomesteader.com/q-fever-and-coxiellosis-in-goats/To see the most recent episodes, visit ForTheLoveOfGoats.com

Este es Medical commons un podcast de la academia de atención Primaria para el mejoramiento de la calidad de la atención en salud de las Américas, a continuación intentaremos dar una revisión sistemática por los temas mayormente preguntados en los exámenes de residencias médicas en Colombia y que frecuentemente son motivo de consulta en atención primaria.

La fiebre Q rara vez es mortal y no existen datos precisos sobre si se deben realizar pruebas de detección de infección en mujeres embarazadas durante un brote. La tasa de mortalidad es del 2,4%. Algunos autores abogan fuertemente por la monitorización serológica después de un episodio de fiebre Q aguda durante dos años para la detección más temprana de la fiebre Q crónica o endocarditis. La razón de esto es un mayor riesgo (39%) de endocarditis en pacientes con lesiones valvulares. En una población de este tipo, se puede realizar un ecocardiograma de detección transtorácica para detectar endocarditis. Si el ecocardiograma es negativo y los títulos serológicos aumentan, pueden ser útiles pruebas adicionales como la PCR de sangre y la tomografía por emisión de positrones para buscar un foco de infección persistente. Se recomienda la monitorización serológica y de los niveles de fármaco durante el tratamiento de la endocarditis. Patil SM, Regunath H. Q Fever. [Updated 2020 Mar 21]. In: StatPearls [Internet].

Q Fever is an emerging zoonotic infection worldwide, and presentations are non-specific, variable and often misdiagnosed. In this podcast Infectious Diseases Physician Prof Andrew Lloyd discusses the issues faced by medical practitioners in testing patients for Q Fever, its clinical features - which may present as acute or chronic infection or the post-Q Fever fatigue syndrome, and treatment and prevention.
Mike Graham speaks to defence journalist Sean Rayment about the plight of after-care for people leaving the armed forces. People who can't sing are starting to join special choirs and there's been an increase in Chinese people visiting Scotland. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
What are the policy makers doing about Q fever? How are the scientists improving the vaccine and who is lobbying on behalf of the public and industry?
Thought of as an abattoir disease, Q Fever is much more than that.

You don't have to be working with cattle to be exposed to this problem! Q-Fever recently struck veterinary staff working with cats and dogs in small animal practice. The disease causes severe flu-like symptoms but can easily progress to the victim being unable to work for months, even years while suffering the pain of chronic fatigue symptoms, or worse, liver or heart damage. However Q-Fever is a disease which is entirely preventable thanks to Australia having the world’s only vaccine… but not all veterinary workers are currently protected… Dr Guy Weerasinghe who’s head of the Australian Vets for Public Health explains more.
