This episode features a highlighted segment from the ROI Centered Care Virtual Summit, produced by Bright Spots Ventures in partnership with TytoCare and the American Telemedicine Association. In this conversation, Eric Glazer sits down with Fernando Carnavali, MD, Associate Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Chief of General Internal Medicine at Mount Sinai Health System, to explore how large academic health systems can translate patient experience, diagnostics, and technology innovation into measurable ROI. Rather than focusing on new tools for their own sake, Dr. Carnavali reframes the challenge: how to use existing data, connected devices, and AI-enabled diagnostics to improve the full patient journey, before, during, and after the visit while also supporting a stretched clinical workforce. Drawing on Mount Sinai's real-world operating environment, the conversation explores how experience, communication, and clinical efficiency are increasingly inseparable from financial performance, especially in inpatient and general internal medicine settings. This discussion moves beyond pilot thinking to address what it takes to operationalize innovation at scale inside a complex health system. What you'll learn in this episode: Why patient experience is a longitudinal journey, not a post-visit survey score How Mount Sinai is using technology and diagnostics to strengthen communication, not replace clinicians The role of AI and connected devices in improving both patient and provider experience Why workforce constraints in primary and general internal medicine demand new care models How health systems can focus on what's already within their control to drive ROI Why proving clinical and economic value upfront is essential to scaling innovation About Dr. Fernando Carnavali: Dr. Carnavali is the Chief of the Division of General Internal Medicine for Mount Sinai Morningside and Mount Sinai West (MSM/MSW) and serves as the Medical Director of the Long COVID Satellite Clinic at Mount Sinai Doctors Ansonia (MSD-Ansonia). In this role, Dr. Carnavali oversees a large, complex division with eight outpatient service locations spanning Manhattan's West Side from Harlem to Chelsea. Clinically, he focuses on the treatment and management of chronic illness, with a particular emphasis on Long COVID care. In early 2020, Dr. Carnavali led MSM/MSW's outpatient response to the COVID-19 pandemic, organizing early testing and triage for community patients and serving for eight weeks on the inpatient COVID units—an experience that provided firsthand insight into the impact of SARS-CoV-2 in New York City. In May 2021, he coordinated the launch of the Long COVID Clinic at MSD Ansonia and continues to personally evaluate new and ongoing patients each week. Committed to sharing Mount Sinai's expertise in Long COVID care, Dr. Carnavali has participated in numerous national and international forums, training providers in this emerging field. He has also built a strong media presence, spotlighting both the Ansonia clinic and the Mount Sinai Long COVID program to raise public awareness. Since 2024, he has served as Co-Principal Investigator on a grant from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and the Department of Health and Human Services titled "Evaluation of Long COVID Care Practices." In addition to Long COVID work, Dr. Carnavali leads outpatient practice transformation initiatives across MSM/MSW and the Mount Sinai Health System, guiding quality improvement teams to enhance patient satisfaction, improve access to care, and explore innovative service models.   Podcast Recommendation: Check out Access Amplified, brought to you by TytoCare and hosted by Joanna Braunold - a podcast about how digital health is helping increase access to care and equity, one innovation at a time.

The p53 protein plays a central role in preventing cancer by responding to cellular stress and DNA damage. When activated, it can repair damaged DNA or trigger cell death, preventing the survival of potentially malignant cells. Loss of p53 function is a hallmark of many cancers. HPV is well known to inactivate p53 through its E6 protein, which promotes p53 degradation. This mechanism contributes to HPV-associated cancers, including cervical, anal, and head and neck cancers. SARS-CoV-2, while not traditionally classified as an oncogenic virus, has been shown to interfere with immune function and, in some cases, with cellular pathways that involve p53. A recent article by Dr. Wafik El-Deiry of The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, published in Oncotarget, proposes a scientific hypothesis suggesting that proteins from HPV and SARS-CoV-2 may both interfere with the body's tumor-suppressing mechanisms, potentially compounding their effects on cancer-related pathways. The Hypothesis: HPV E6 and SARS-CoV-2 Spike Proteins May Cooperatively Suppress p53 In the paper, titled “Hypothesis: HPV E6 and COVID spike proteins cooperate in targeting tumor suppression by p53,” Dr. El-Deiry proposes that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, whether introduced via infection or mRNA vaccination, may suppress p53 activity in a manner that complements the effects of HPV E6. In individuals with persistent HPV infection, this combined interference could further reduce p53 function, weakening tumor suppression mechanisms.

🧭 REBEL Rundown 📌 Key Points 💨 HFNC met criteria for non-inferiority to BPAP for preventing intubation or death within 7 days in four of the five ARF subgroups.🧪 Bayesian dynamic borrowing increased power across subgroups but created variable certainty, especially in smaller groups such as COPD.🫁 The immunocompromised hypoxemia subgroup did not meet non-inferiority, leading to early trial stopping for futility.️ Rescue BPAP use, subgroup-specific exclusion criteria, and non-standardized BPAP delivery are important contextual factors that influence how subgroup results should be interpreted. Click here for Direct Download of the Podcast. 📝 Introduction Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (BPAP) has long been a foundational modality in the management of acute respiratory failure (ARF), particularly in COPD exacerbations and cardiogenic pulmonary edema, where it can rapidly reduce work of breathing and improve gas exchange. It remains a core tool in our respiratory support arsenal.High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC), however, has expanded what we can offer patients by delivering many of the same physiologic benefits through a far more comfortable interface. With high flows, modest PEEP, and effective dead-space washout, HFNC can improve oxygenation and decrease work of breathing while preserving the ability to talk, cough, eat, and interact with staff and family. This combination of physiologic support and tolerability makes HFNC especially attractive in patients where comfort, anxiety, or cardiovascular stability are key considerations, and in settings where prolonged noninvasive support may be needed. Rather than competing with BPAP, HFNC broadens our options in ARF and allows us to better match the modality to the patient and their underlying disease process.The RENOVATE trial set out to answer a high-impact question across five distinct etiologic groups: Is HFNC non-inferior to BPAP (NIV) for preventing intubation or death in acute respiratory failure? 🧾 Paper Azoulay É, et al.

In this first installment of our two‑part Pharm to Table special on MK‑7845, Dani and LC sit down with medicinal chemist Valerie Shurtleff to unpack the discovery journey behind this 3CL protease inhibitor—from early structural insights to an unexpectedly effective difluorobutyl isostere. Val walks us through how the team balanced potency, VLE, metabolic challenges, and design intuition to land on a well‑rounded preclinical candidate - one of the most dynamic programs of her career. Along the way, she reminds us why asking good questions, collaborating relentlessly, and occasionally surviving a “Hot Ones” challenge are all essential scientific skills. It's an episode packed with chemistry, creativity, and just enough fluorine to keep things spicy.Stay tuned for Part 2, where we shift from invention to implementation and explore how the process chemistry team brought MK‑7845 to life at scale.Read some of the papers we discussed today:Invention of MK-7845, a SARS-CoV-2 3CL Protease Inhibitor Employing a Novel Difluorinated Glutamine Mimic - J.

A growing number of post-pandemic reports have described cancer diagnoses, recurrence, or progression following COVID-19 vaccination or SARS-CoV-2 infection. While no causal relationship has been established, these observations raise important questions that warrant careful, hypothesis-driven investigation. ​​The rapid development and global distribution of mRNA and viral vector vaccines during the pandemic was a landmark achievement in public health, essential in reducing severe COVID-19 cases and mortality. However, the novelty of these vaccines and the absence of long-term carcinogenicity or genotoxicity testing have led some researchers to ask whether rare but biologically plausible interactions with cancer pathways might exist. At the same time, pandemic-related disruptions in routine cancer screening and treatment were anticipated to influence diagnosis patterns. Yet, some reports have described unexpected phenomena, such as rapid disease progression in previously stable cancers or tumor appearance near injection sites, that are not easily explained by delayed care alone. The Review: Examining 69 Studies on Cancer Diagnoses After COVID-19 Vaccination or Infection In a review published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget, titled “COVID vaccination and post-infection cancer signals: Evaluating patterns and potential biological mechanisms,” Charlotte Kuperwasser (Tufts University) and Oncotarget Editor-in-Chief Wafik S. El-Deiry (The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University) examined 69 peer-reviewed publications spanning January 2020 to October 2025.

BUFFALO, NY – January 13, 2026 – A new #hypothesis article was #published in Oncotarget (Volume 17) on January 3, 2026, titled “Hypothesis: HPV E6 and COVID spike proteins cooperate in targeting tumor suppression by p53.” Written by Wafik S. El-Deiry, Oncotarget Editor-in-Chief, from The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University and from Lifespan Health System and Brown University, the paper proposes that two viral proteins, HPV E6 and SARS-CoV-2 spike, could jointly reduce the activity of p53, a protein that helps protect cells from becoming cancerous. HPV is already known to drive several cancers, and the hypothesis suggests that additional pressure on p53 could matter for cancer risk or recurrence in some settings. HPV can promote cancer development in part by using its E6 protein, together with a human partner protein called E6-AP, to drive the downregulation of p53. When p53 is weakened, damaged cells may be more likely to survive and continue growing. The new hypothesis asks whether SARS-CoV-2 viral influence could further reduce p53 function in people already affected by HPV. The article highlights studies suggesting that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein may suppress p53 activity and discusses observations that have raised questions about cancer outcomes after COVID-19 infection or vaccination in certain contexts. It also notes that a search of the literature did not identify clear evidence of direct molecular cooperation between HPV and COVID-19 in suppressing p53, which underscores the need for further studies. “I listened to an interview (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnVMjp9mCA0&t=2s) of Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong by Chris Cuomo where I learned about a patient named Jim Johnson with a history of HPV-related head and neck cancer who by 2022 had survived his HPV-related cancer for 7 years and then he took the COVID vaccine.” To investigate the presented hypothesis, Dr. El-Deiry proposes epidemiological studies that analyze cancer incidence and recurrence in HPV-positive groups with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID mRNA vaccination. It also proposes laboratory studies to assess whether HPV E6 and SARS-CoV-2 spike combined reduce p53 function more than either factor alone. Overall, the hypothesis was formulated to focus attention on an HPV and SARS-CoV-2 shared biological target, p53, and to encourage careful studies that separate coincidence from causation. By outlining specific approaches, it aims to help researchers evaluate whether combined viral pressures on tumor-suppressor pathways could contribute to cancer progression.

BUFFALO, NY – January 8, 2026 – A new #review was #published in Oncotarget (Volume 17) on January 3, 2026, titled “COVID vaccination and post-infection cancer signals: Evaluating patterns and potential biological mechanisms.” Led by Charlotte Kuperwasser from Tufts University School of Medicine and Oncotarget Editor-in-Chief Wafik S. El-Deiry from The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, the review examines published reports describing cancers that appeared after COVID-19 vaccination or SARS-CoV-2 infection. The authors analyze patterns across case reports, small patient series, and large population studies, and explain why these observations are relevant for cancer research and long-term public health monitoring. Cancer remains a major global health concern, and understanding factors that may influence its behavior is important. The review covers reports published between January 2020 and October 2025 that describe cancer diagnoses, recurrence, or unusually rapid disease progression following vaccination or infection. In total, 69 publications were reviewed. Sixty-six article reports, representing more than 300 patients across multiple countries and cancer types; 2 retrospective investigations; and one longitudinal study spanning the pre-pandemic through post-pandemic periods. The review explores how immune responses triggered by infection or vaccination could, in some individuals, influence existing cancer cells or previously dormant disease. Many article reports involved blood cancers such as lymphomas and leukemias and solid tumors, including breast, lung, pancreatic, brain, and skin cancers. Some cases described rapid disease progression or cancers appearing near vaccine injection sites or nearby lymph nodes. These observations are described as hypothesis-generating rather than evidence of risk. In addition to individual case reports, the review examines findings from large population studies in South Korea, Italy, and the United States military. These studies assessed cancer trends over time in vaccinated populations and reported modest associations for certain cancer types. The authors note that these findings are limited by short follow-up periods and potential reporting and detection biases, emphasizing the need for longer-term data. The authors also discuss possible biological explanations for the reported patterns, including temporary immune changes, inflammation, or altered immune surveillance that could affect tumor behavior in people with undetected or controlled cancer. They place these observations within the broader context of how viral infections can interact with cancer biology. “Establishing causality between SARS-CoV-2 infection, COVID-19 vaccination, and cancer requires a level of evidence far beyond temporal association.” Overall, the review identifies significant gaps in current knowledge about possible associations between COVID-19 vaccination and cancer, including limited long-term cancer surveillance, lack of molecular data, and an incomplete understanding of individual susceptibility. The authors emphasize the need for carefully designed studies that integrate clinical, epidemiologic, and biological evidence. Finally, they conclude that examining these reported patterns is important for advancing cancer research and supporting informed public health discussions.

BUFFALO, NY — January 7, 2026 — A new #meetingreport was #published in Volume 17, Issue 12 of Aging-US on December 23, 2025, titled “Cellular senescence meets infection: highlights from the 10th annual International Cell Senescence Association (ICSA) conference, Rome 2025.” Led by Stefanie Deinhardt-Emmer from Jena University Hospital and Marco De Andrea from the University of Piemonte Orientale and the University of Turin, the report summarizes key discussions from the 10th International Cell Senescence Association conference held in Rome in September 2025. It focuses on how infections can trigger cellular senescence, a state in which cells stop dividing and release inflammatory signals. This link is important since it connects infectious diseases with aging, chronic inflammation, and lasting tissue damage. Although cellular senescence is best known for its role in aging and cancer, the meeting highlighted its emerging importance in infection biology. Researchers described how viruses and bacteria can induce senescence in infected cells and spread its effects to nearby tissues. This process, known as infection-driven senescence (IDS), can help limit pathogen replication but may also prolong inflammation and slow recovery, particularly in older adults and during chronic infections. Several sessions focused on respiratory viruses like influenza and SARS-CoV-2. Researchers showed that these viruses can promote senescence in lung cells, contributing to persistent inflammation and reduced healing. Experimental models suggested that decreasing the amount of senescent cells improved lung repair, even after the virus was cleared, offering insight into why some patients experience long-lasting respiratory symptoms. Chronic viral infections were another major theme. Human cytomegalovirus and HIV were shown to drive senescence in immune and vascular cells. In people with HIV, viral proteins were associated with biological changes resembling accelerated aging, despite effective antiviral therapy. These findings help explain why age-related conditions occur earlier and more frequently in this population. In the meeting, it was also demonstrated that senescence is not limited to viral infections. Researchers reported that the bacterium Mycobacterium abscessus induces senescence in immune cells during chronic infection. These senescent cells increased inflammation and susceptibility to further infection. Removing them reduced bacterial levels in experimental models, suggesting new directions for treating persistent bacterial disease. “Mechanistically, IDS integrates DNA damage responses, inflammatory signaling, and metabolic stress, with consistent activation of p16INK4a, p21, and NF-κB pathways.” Across the conference, speakers discussed therapies that either remove senescent cells or reduce their harmful inflammatory signals. These approaches, known as senolytic and senomorphic strategies, showed promise in preclinical studies as potential tools to limit infection-related tissue damage and chronic inflammation. Overall, the meeting report presents infection-driven senescence as a unifying concept linking infection, immunity, and aging. The discussions at ICSA 2025 highlight a growing field with important implications for understanding chronic disease and the long-term health effects of infections.

Originally aired 9/11/25: Mary welcomes back Bill Wilson of The Daily Jot to pull the curtain back on some inconvenient truths – inconvenient for those who don’t like truth telling, anyway. In the aftermath of yesterday’s shocking headline of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, sometimes the bedrock of truth will go head to head with wickedness and a high price is paid. Worldviews clash daily in these times, but embedded in the series of decisions that were made to take this man’s life over ideology is the true definition of “crossing the rubicon” – and America will take a long time to recover from this, if we do. Today we also discuss the the political polarization fallout of the Sars/Cov pandemic, accompanied by the general declining trust in public health measures that followed, along with more intense political division. If it only took a couple weeks for Fauci and his ilk to shut our country down, why has it taken an additional 4 years to finish a thought on the scam of the century? Well, there are those who are finally getting around to spelling it out. We also chat about lawfare against Trump’s agenda, Senator Tim Kaine’s radical views, and the myth of the Palestinian State. Set for September 22, the UN is continuing to push hard for that unknown state for an unknown people (see, “terrorists”). But Trump has disallowed visas for Mahmoud Abbas and 80 of his closest friends in terror. Now what? Well, change of venue perhaps. Stay tuned. A full hour with a prophecy watcher and journalist.

People with long COVID experience persistent fatigue, breathlessness, and brain fog. Research links these effects to fibrin microclots intertwined with neutrophil extracellular traps that obstruct microvessels and impair oxygen delivery SARS-CoV-2 pushes blood into a hypercoagulable state, damaging endothelium, activating platelets, and inflammatory cytokines. This causes clot risk to persist for months, even after mild infections and hospital discharge Long COVID essentially boils down to mitochondrial dysfunction. Management includes proteolytic enzymes to help clear spike protein, while the I-RECOVER protocol guides detoxification, inflammation control, and mitochondrial repair to restore overall function Protecting cardiolipin, the mitochondrial membrane fat, requires limiting easily oxidized linoleic acid (LA) from seed oils, processed foods, nuts, seeds, and grain-fed meats Methylene blue may enhance mitochondrial respiration at low doses. Additionally, correcting copper deficiency and lowering excess iron through blood donation support energy production

Dr. Robert Redfield, former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, says he'd like to see the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines phased out and eventually removed from the market.Redfield led the CDC from 2018 to 2021. While an avid proponent of vaccines in general, he hopes that the fallout from the emergency-authorized mRNA vaccines will lead to a broader recognition that vaccine manufacturers must no longer be exempt from liability.Redfield is a clinical virologist who, prior to his appointment as CDC director in 2018, spent decades in HIV/AIDS research and clinical care, including service in the U.S. Army Medical Corps and later at the University of Maryland, where he co-founded the Institute of Human Virology.Over the past few years, he's been at the forefront of treating patients who were injured by the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines.In my interview with him, we covered at length the many hot topics and questions surrounding the recent pandemic and our pandemic response, among them:How and why was the true origin of SARS-COV-2 suppressed? What indicators were there early on that the virus was likely leaked from a lab? What did Dr. Redfield know from classified documents at the beginning of 2020?What were the most significant missteps America made in its response to the pandemic?Is there a role for gain-of-function research in America? Or should it be outlawed?What is the future of mRNA technology? Should mRNA technology be used for vaccines at all?Why weren't the vaccine-injured publicly acknowledged and adequately cared for? What kinds of reforms are needed in America's public health system?Redfield's new book is titled “Redfield's Warning: What I Learned (but Couldn't Tell You) Might Save Your Life.”He argues a lab-created bird flu may be the next pandemic. But are we prepared?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Dr. Lynn Lafferty grew up around her two grandmothers, both farmers, learning lessons that helped chart the course in her life decades later. Some family stories had a lifelong impact. One great-grandmother was the local healer in her small rural community. When the Spanish Flu erupted, she used an elixir of elderberries and alcohol to treat 20 community members who fell ill with that dread disease. Not a single patient died. Lynn reports that no one in her extended family fell ill from that disease, and attributes their resistance to the nightly dose of elderberry elixir for all family members, which was a family ritual. Dr. Lafferty is an endowed professor at Nova Southeastern University, teaching pharmacy and medical students. She attributes her career choice to influences from her grandmothers, who inspired her direction in life. The life lessons she learned also drove her to seek rational solutions to the SARS-CoV-2 virus when it broke out, causing COVID in 2020. Challenges in Medical Education Dr Lafferty highlighted her concerns about the lack of education on essential nutrients and the influence of hospital protocols over resident physicians. She described a concerning mindset among psychiatry residents who expressed fear of harming patients with prescribed drugs, despite their extensive training and financial investment. Dr. Lafferty also recounted a personal experience involving her brother's inadequate medical care, emphasizing the limitations imposed by hospital protocols and the lack of knowledge about basic treatments like magnesium deficiency. Truth and Love's Transformative Power The Breggins discussed with Dr. Lafferty her experience speaking truthfully about healthcare issues, including her confrontation with a dean over her statements about Lipitor's side effects. She expressed her commitment to speaking the truth and her belief that she is on a mission. Dr. Breggin and Ginger Breggin also confirmed their personal sense of being called to do their work. Authoritarian Control in Medical Progress Peter and Lynn discussed the impact of authoritarian control over medical institutions, highlighting how innovative doctors are being suppressed, which hampers progress in medicine and patient care. Pharmacists vs. Physicians: Education Gaps Dr. Breggin and Dr. Lafferty also examined differences between primary care doctors and pharmacists, Dr. Lafferty declaring that pharmacists are more science-based and less authoritarian than medical doctors. They highlighted how medical students receive limited pharmacology training compared to the comprehensive education received in the past. Therapy, Medication, and Scientific Reasoning Dr. Breggin raised the issue of the importance of therapy over medication for psychiatric and psychological issues and the potential benefits of pharmacists working with psychiatrists to monitor psychiatric drug side effects. Listening to the patient who is sitting in front of you and looking beyond the latest big pharmaceutical options were two important highlights that came out of the conversation. Seeking treatments with the least potential for harm and understanding the range of treatments available in the natural world of foods and supplements were also emphasized. Dr. Lafferty can be found at her website. She offers courses, some free. Her newest training is a 10-session course, held once a week, that gives a basic understanding of how to take care of yourself and your family best. Participants review body systems, how they work, and foods, herbs, and supplements that can help the body return to balance.

Overview This special episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast was recorded live at the 2nd Annual Alzheimer's Pathobiome Initiative (AlzPI) and PCOM Symposium in collaboration with Pathobiome Perspectives. Hosted by Ali Moresco in partnership with Nikki Schultek, Executive Director of AlzPI, the conversation brings the Tick Boot Camp mission of exploring infection-associated chronic illness (IACI)—including Lyme disease and other tick-borne infections—to the global Alzheimer's and neuroimmunology research community. Tick Boot Camp co-founders Matt Sabatello and Rich Johannesen partnered with Ali and Nikki to highlight leading scientists connecting infection, immune dysfunction, and cognitive decline. This episode features Dr. Sean Miller, a neuroscientist and co-investigator in the Logan Lab with a primary appointment at Yale School of Medicine, who is developing ways to non-invasively detect Alzheimer's-like pathology through the eye. Guest Sean Miller, PhD Co-Investigator, Logan Lab / Yale School of Medicine Dr. Sean Miller completed pre-doctoral work at Harvard Medical School, earned his PhD from Johns Hopkins University, and completed post-doctoral training at Stanford University. His research focuses on neurodegeneration, neuroglia, and early diagnostic strategies for Alzheimer's and related diseases. At the AlzPI & PCOM Symposium, Dr. Miller presented evidence showing that SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection can accelerate Alzheimer's-like pathology and that these changes can be detected non-invasively through retinal imaging. His findings suggest that amyloid-beta, a protein long associated with Alzheimer's disease, may also serve as part of the brain's antimicrobial defense system—trapping pathogens like a mesh or biofilm, but leading to damaging plaque buildup when overproduced. Key Discussion Points Dr. Miller describes how the COVID-19 virus can act as an infectious trigger for neuroinflammation and amyloid buildup, how the eye provides a unique window into the brain, and why early detection is essential to preventing neuron death. He shares how his lab's AI-enhanced retinal imaging research at Yale Eye Center is identifying amyloid and tau deposits in patients with long COVID-related brain fog—opening the possibility of routine eye exams doubling as early Alzheimer's screening tools. He explains potential therapeutic strategies, such as limiting amyloid production during infection flare-ups and enhancing clearance mechanisms afterward to reduce chronic plaque formation. The conversation also explores his scientific journey—from designing Alzheimer's drugs at Harvard and Johns Hopkins to realizing the need for early disease detection during his postdoc at Stanford—and how the pandemic inspired his focus on infection-induced neurodegeneration. “We believe neurons are exposed to pathogens in the central nervous system and respond by secreting amyloid-beta to trap them. Excessive plaque buildup from repeated or severe infections may be what drives long-term neurodegeneration.” — Dr. Sean Miller Why It Matters Dr. Miller's research connects infectious disease, ophthalmology, and neurology, providing a revolutionary new method to screen for early Alzheimer's-like changes non-invasively through the human eye. His work suggests that infections like COVID-19 may trigger the same protective—but damaging—immune responses implicated in chronic conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and infection-associated cognitive decline. About the Event The interview took place at the 2nd Annual Alzheimer's Pathobiome Initiative (AlzPI) and Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM) Symposium, held on October 3, 2025, at Ohio University in Dublin, Ohio. The event brought together more than 20 global researchers exploring how microbes, the microbiome, and the immune response contribute to Alzheimer's, dementia, PANS/PANDAS, and infection-associated chronic illnesses (IACI). Tick Boot Camp partnered with Ali Moresco and Nikki Schultek to share the voices of researchers advancing the field of infection-associated chronic illness. This episode is part of a multi-part Tick Boot Camp series highlighting how pathobiome and microbiome science are transforming the understanding of Lyme disease, infection, and neurodegeneration.

“Over 220 global FOIs done to various governments, universities & scientists/scientific depts asking them to provide evidence of these " Viruses".... None of them can - including Wuhan!”Join us for a live King Hero interview with Canadian champion in the no-virus war, Christine Massey, to see behind the scenes in her life.We'll talk about where she was at in 2020, what motivated her to pull back the “virus” wizard's curtain, and how she's managed on the front lines of this war.Bio:Christine Massey is a former statistician from Canada who has become known for her extensive use of Freedom of Information requests to investigate the scientific evidence for the existence of SARS-CoV-2 and other alleged viruses. She began her inquiries in early 2020 after becoming skeptical of the official narrative surrounding the alleged COVID-19 pandemic, drawing on her background which included activism against water fluoridation, which taught her to question public health claims. Her research focuses on whether health institutions can provide essential foundational evidence for the existence of alleged viruses, as well as for contagion and the claimed pathogenicity of any bacteria.Website: https://www.fluoridefreepeel.caFB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100084768107639Substack: https://substack.com/@christinemasseyfois1 ***Bumper music by Liam Martens, aka ツSaiko, sub to him here on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SA1KO0O1 ***MORE FROM BETHSign up to take a 10-minute King Hero's Journey archetype quizApply to become a member of the House of Free WillRumbleKing Hero Telegram ChannelTwitter (X)InstagramSign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype ReadingOrder a copy of my book, ‘Journey: A Map of Archetypes to Find Lost Purpose in a Sea of Meaninglessness'Donate by PayPal if you're inspiredFollow the King Hero's Journey Podcast on... Apple Podcasts Spotify ***And if we're just meeting...I'm Beth Martens, a pattern hunter, archetype reader, podcaster, author, coach trainer, and business coach, and my calling is a life or death thing.

This episode was recorded in 2021.Peter McCullough is an American internist, cardiologist, and epidemiologist. In fact, he's one of the most published and cited medical researchers in the United States.During the fake pandemic, he played a leading role by developing early treatment protocols, managing cardiovascular complications from the alleged virus and "vaccines".He also co-founded the McCullough Foundation to support research on these issues, contributing to studies on vaccine-related myocarditis and other effects.His work sparked controversy (obviously), leading to the revocation of his board certification.I no longer believe there was a pandemic. In fact, I no longer believe there was either a virus called SARS-CoV-2 or a disease called COVID-19. But that doesn't mean Peter's treatments didn't work—I can take an aspirin for a headache without knowing its cause, and it will work.Peter appeared on my podcast a few times. This was his first appearance.

In his weekly clinical update, Dr. Griffin and Vincent Racaniello ponder the nomination of Casey Means for Surgeon General by President Trump, how mRNA vaccines may enhance effectiveness of check point inhibitor cancer therapies, if viral infection associates with cardiac disease, H5N1 isolation from backyard birds and turkey farms, and the effectiveness of the COVID-19, RSV and influenza vaccines before Dr. Griffin deep dives into recent statistics on the measles epidemic, RSV, influenza and SARS-CoV-2 infections, the Wasterwater Scan dashboard, Johns Hopkins measles tracker, if revaccination with the mRNA RSV vaccine is effective, how effective today's COVID-19 vaccine is for protection against severe disease following infection with current viral variants, where to find PEMGARDA, how to access and pay for Paxlovid, can you be retreated with Paxlovid, long COVID treatment center, where to go for answers to your long COVID questions, and contacting your federal government representative to stop the assault on science and biomedical research.
