In this provocative episode of ReversABLE, Josh Dech sits down with physician Dr. Tom Cowan for a wide-ranging conversation about disease, scientific reasoning, the heart, viruses, bacteria, environmental exposures, hormones, and the assumptions underlying conventional medicine. Cowan describes his unusual path into medicine, including 37 years in family practice, and explains the philosophy that drives much of his work: rather than immediately trying to determine what is true, first investigate whether the original claim has actually been demonstrated. That framework takes the conversation into controversial territory. Cowan challenges conventional explanations surrounding viruses and germ theory, using examples involving polio, measles, SARS-CoV-2, bacteria, antibodies, and laboratory procedures. He argues that some commonly accepted demonstrations of causation do not establish what they are claimed to establish. These are among the most contentious claims in the episode and are presented as Cowan's perspective rather than settled medical consensus. The discussion then shifts into physiology, where Cowan challenges the conventional description of the heart as a pressure-propulsion pump. He presents his theory of the heart as part of a vortex-based circulatory system and connects that concept to blood flow, pressure differentials, tissue-level physiology, and electrically charged water. Josh and Tom also explore mold, parasites, bacteria, environmental toxins, EMFs, inflammation, and the question of whether the presence of a microorganism necessarily establishes it as the root cause of illness. One of the most compelling themes throughout the conversation is critical thinking: separating observation from interpretation, correlation from causation, and established evidence from assumptions. For anyone interested in gut health, chronic illness, inflammation, the microbiome, immune system, root-cause health, functional medicine, or simply questioning how medical conclusions are reached, this episode offers a conversation designed to challenge your assumptions—and encourage you to investigate the claims for yourself.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Viruses, Virology & Germ Theory Scientific Methodology, Claims, Causation & Critical Thinking The Heart As A Pump Vs.

The research found that low arginine levels were linked to reduced production of MHC-1, a protein that displays abnormal cellular signals to T cells, according to the report. In mouse models, arginine-rich diets were associated with fewer colon tumors and milder influenza and SARS-CoV-2 infections, the researchers reported. The findings add to prior work linking declining immune function to cancer progression. When arginine is scarce, cells struggle to produce MHC-1 proteins, which appear on the surfaces of cells throughout the body and display foreign or abnormal proteins to T cells. Researchers repeated the dietary studies using mouse models of influenza and SARS-CoV-2, conditions previously associated with unusual levels of different amino acids. One of the most dramatic patterns to emerge was that arginine was the most depleted amino acid in all of these diseases. Not only did mice with an arginine-rich diet have milder symptoms from viral infections, giving the mice arginine after influenza infection improved their outcomes too. Yeast food supplement helps immune cells fight cancer more effectively Trinity College Dublin & University College Dublin, July 9 2026 Researchers from Trinity College Dublin (TCD) and University College Dublin (UCD) have shown for the first time that a food supplement made from yeast helps the body to make stronger immune cells that can fight cancer. The research teams found that adding a yeast-based supplement to the food of obese laboratory mice changes how their immune cells grow and help to make better cancer‑fighting cells. Mice were fed a standard or high fat diet supplemented with yeast beta-glucan for 4-12 weeks and then their immune system was challenged by different types of cancer cells (colorectal, skin and breast cancer). The study also tested whether yeast supplementation could overcome immune dysfunction caused by obesity and whether protective effects persist after weight loss. Crucially, this dietary intervention restores anti-tumor innate immunity in obese mice and reverses long-term immune memory defects that persist even after weight loss, a major unmet clinical challenge. Physical activity linked to lower stroke and death risk in adults with atrial fibrillation Arctic University of Norway, August 5 2026 (News-Medical) Being physically active was linked to a lower risk of stroke and death for adults with atrial fibrillation, or AFib, according to new, independent research published in the Journal of the American Heart Association. AFib is a quivering or irregular heartbeat that occurs in the heart's upper chamber known as the atria. According to the American Heart Association, it can lead to blood clots, stroke and other heart-related conditions. The prevalence of AFib in the U.S. was estimated at 4.48% of the adult U.S. population. The study tracked more than 87,000 adults in Norway for about 15 years, capturing information about AFib, stroke and death from national health registries. What did the analysis find? Compared to adults who were inactive, adults with a low, moderate or high level of physical activity had a 9%, 19% and 18% lower risk of stroke, respectively. Having a low, moderate or high level of physical activity was associated with an 11%, 18% and 22% lower risk of death from any cause, respectively. For people with AFib, staying active was tied to living an average of 0.5 to 1.2 years longer compared to those who were inactive Phthalates may contribute to high blood pressure in pregnant women Harvard School of Public Health, August 10 2026 (News-Medical) Phthalates, which are chemicals found in plastics, personal care products and hundreds of other consumer goods, may contribute to high blood pressure in pregnant women, according to a study published in the Journal of the Endocrine Society. The researchers measured phthalate exposure and blood pressure in 338 pregnant women at three points during pregnancy. They analyzed whether higher levels of these chemicals-individually and in combination-were linked to higher blood pressure or an increased risk of pregnancy-related high blood pressure disorders. The authors found that pregnant women with higher urine concentrations of fragrance-associated phthalates and those in personal care products had higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure markers of an increased risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. About 13% of participants in the study developed a pregnancy-related high blood pressure disorder. Women with higher levels of certain phthalates, especially those found in personal care products, tended to have higher blood pressure later in pregnancy. Daily Collagen Supplement Alters Bone-Related Blood Markers in Female Runners, Study Says Fitchburg State University, University of Connecticut & Mayo Clinic, August 4 2026 (Natural News) A four-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial found that female distance runners who took 20 grams of collagen peptides per day showed an approximately 5.1 percent rise in P1NP over four weeks, a blood marker of bone formation, while the placebo group showed no such change, according to a study published in Frontiers in Nutrition. The collagen group also showed a drop in IL-6, an inflammatory protein linked to bone breakdown, while placebo levels held steady or rose, the study reported. The trial included 22 female runners ages 18 to 35 who ran at least 35 miles per week, and no adverse effects were reported. Collagen is the most common and abundant protein in the body, accounting for about 30 percent of total protein content and providing structural support to bones, tendons, ligaments, and other connective tissues, according to published research.       Discussion about this episode

With the Trump administration's newest political persecution of Anthony Fauci and three years after our first lab-leak special, now seemed like a useful time to return to the topic. Fortunately, you do not have to rely on our knowledge of viruses, as we have somehow managed to convince the same three esteemed virologists, Eddie Holmes, Kristian Andersen and Michael Worobey, to come back for an update.Mike, Kristian and Eddie return and offer us their read on where the scientific evidence on COVID's origins stands in 2026. They take us through the main lines of evidence and the often overlooked role of the wildlife trade, explaining why the lab-leak story remains so appealing, and how their own assessments have shifted as more evidence has emerged. We also discuss the standard claim that the media suppressed the lab-leak narrative while noting that coverage across both alternative and mainstream outlets remains heavily skewed towards it (and almost entirely detached from the research literature).Finally, we end on a characteristically positive note by discussing the Trump administration's attacks on science and the ongoing campaigns against high-profile scientists and public health figures. Our guests describe their experience of committing the heinous offence of following the scientific evidence and arriving at conclusions that contradict the preferred views of polemical politicians and prominent media pundits.In short, this episode is our modest attempt to drag the topic back towards the science, while also focusing on the price paid by the people who actually conduct the research and care about the evidence. We are not neutral when it comes to the ongoing attacks on science and scientists and do not pretend to be.

Today we cover the incredible revelations coming out this week regarding the COVID event: major bombshells of declassified government paperwork that reveal blatant lies told to the American public, and the world. Welcome to Actuali, where we explore the crisis of meaning in our world today, and how we may help usher in an awakening from it.Did government officials and agencies intentionally hide the origins of SARS-CoV-2 from the public? How did Bill Gates himself manage to profit so much from the pandemic? And what do these declassified diaries, DARPA records, and the cover-up of US biolabs reveal to us about the Covid event?We break down Dr. Fauci's shocking declassified diary notes (daily diary entries he had saved on government servers), declassified DARPA records revealing hidden U.S. bioweapons facilities (that the the Biden admin lied about on record), and newly uncovered data that exposes the reality behind not just gain-of-function research, but mass censorship, and hidden global biolab funding.This episode is essential viewing for anyone keen to understand what was hidden from us and the true extent of the coverup.Stay Tuned for Part 2 where we cover Fauci and expose even more of the incredible revelations now becoming available to us.Links as promised!Compilation of Media Disinformation:https://x.com/adamcarolla/status/2082812509443240071?s=20Dr. David E.

As the president's ill-conceived conflict with Iran becomes more unstable and chaotic his personal propaganda machine has run out of ways to spin it to its viewers. Last week the network was more than happy to hype up a personal vendetta Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) has against Dr. Anthony Fauci, formerly the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) cast himself as a noble physician battling what he believes is a corrupt mad scientist, Fauci, who was hellbent on accumulating power and wealth during one of the darkest chapters in recent American history. Although Paul is a medical doctor, he studied ophthalmology and briefly worked as an eye surgeon before following his father's path in politics.The senator might be able to surgically fix a problem in a human eye, but he has no expertise or experience with infectious diseases.Dr. Anthony Fauci is a physician-scientist and immunologist with a decades long career as a public servant. Fauci was instrumental in the U.S. government response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Over a period of years he helped secure research funding, speed up drug trials, and helped design PEPFAR - a U.S. initiative to treat HIV/AIDS patients all over the world.Fauci had the misfortune to run the NIAID when a new virus, SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19, spread across the world while working with one of the most incompetent presidents in U.S. history - Donald J. Trump.During the public health catastrophe Fauci kept notes about his work on a government issued computer. Senator Paul subpoenaed the personal notes Fox News called “The Fauci Diaries” and attempted to use Fauci's writing to bolster a false narrative about the COVID-19 pandemic.Paul's pursuit of Fauci resulted in a Senate committee hearing last week where the doctor evoked his fifth amendment rights against self-incrimination over 100 times. Meanwhile Paul and his fellow GOP senators cherry picked statements from the personal notes and mocked Fauci for passages about his fascination with celebrities and his newfound fame.The focus on COVID provided the network with an easy way to avoid discussing an unpopular war while it provided Fox News viewers an opportunity to re-ride the roller coaster of conspiracy theories, snake oil remedies and vaccine avoidance that cost hundreds of thousands of American lives.In addition to the network's obsessive coverage of a senate committee hearing that gave their viewers no new information Fox News hosts continued to openly criticize Trump's handling of the war in Iran while insisting that the United States was on the brink of a communist takeover by a small group of Democratic Socialists.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8622COVID, LA REISCRIZIONE PER I MEDICI RADIATI E' UN ATTO DI GIUSTIZIAdi Paolo Gulisano La Commissione Affari sociali della Camera ha approvato, il 14 luglio 2026, un emendamento che permette ai medici radiati dall'Ordine durante la pandemia di Covid di chiedere la reiscrizione all'albo professionale. La norma porta la prima firma della deputata di Fratelli d'Italia Alice Buonguerrieri. È inserita nella legge delega di riforma delle professioni sanitarie. L'emendamento non prevede un reintegro automatico. I medici radiati potranno presentare istanza di reiscrizione entro sessanta giorni dall'entrata in vigore della legge. Chi sono questi medici? La misura riguarda i sanitari che vennero radiati con l'accusa di «aver promosso attivamente pratiche antiscientifiche durante la pandemia, mettendo a rischio pazienti e salute pubblica». Non riguarda invece i medici che semplicemente non si erano vaccinati: per loro la sanzione era stata la sospensione, non la radiazione, ed è decaduta già nel novembre 2022.La radiazione è la sanzione disciplinare più grave. Cancella un professionista dall'albo. Viene applicata solo in casi estremi, come a seguito di reati penali nell'esercizio della professione. In realtà i medici radiati nel periodo pandemico subirono questa sanzione solo per aver espresso un pensiero difforme rispetto alla narrazione ufficiale. Non si limitarono ai protocolli governativi, tachipirina e vigile attesa, ma intrapresero cure con vari farmaci, in particolare antinfiammatori.Fummo non pochi a praticare le cure precoci domiciliari, ma alcuni - qualche decina di medici, rei forse di aver divulgato pubblicamente questo tipo di attività terapeutica, e i conseguenti successi clinici - vennero denunciati e condannati alla radiazione per «diffusione pubblica di terapie prive di basi scientifiche».La decisione della Commissione Affari sociali giunge dopo cinque anni a mettere fine a questa vergogna, all'aver discriminato, messo alla gogna e allontanato dalla professione dei sanitari colpevoli solo di un "reato" di opinione, ovvero di avere un pensiero critico nei confronti di protocolli ufficiali di tipo sperimentale che non avevano prove scientifiche di efficacia. Tutti gli studi degli ultimi anni hanno dimostrato che attraverso cure domiciliari precoci, e attraverso l'utilizzo di farmaci antinfiammatori così come di antitrombotici e persino degli antibiotici tanto osteggiati dalla narrazione ufficiale, si sarebbero potute salvare migliaia di vite.Il reintegro dei medici radiati è un atto dovuto e meritorio, soprattutto in un momento in cui il sistema sanitario ha disperatamente bisogno di medici. Eppure, questa scelta del governo ha visto l'immediata, incomprensibile levata di scudi di alcuni soggetti. In primis il presidente della Federazione nazionale degli ordini dei medici chirurghi e degli odontoiatri , Filippo Anelli, che ha lanciato un appello al Parlamento perché riveda la norma che introduce la possibilità di reiscrizione immediata per i sanitari radiati durante il Covid. Anelli ha detto che questi medici «non hanno creduto nella Scienza durante il Covid e non hanno tenuto comportamenti aderenti alle nostre norme del Codice di deontologia». Ancora una volta la scienza è eretta a idolo, a divinità indiscussa che «deve essere il punto di riferimento della nostra società». Quale scienza, è lecito chiedersi. La medicina è una branca scientifica che si avvale di continui e nuovi contributi, non un Moloch intoccabile. In tempi in cui non si crede più a nessuna verità rivelata, la scienza dovrebbe guidare la vita dei cittadini. Gli esiti dell'epidemia stanno a dimostrare quanto questa proclamazione dogmatica non regga.Inoltre, l'intervento del dottor Anelli impressiona per la sua spietatezza: continuare a mantenere la radiazione di questi colleghi rappresenta una vera e propria forma di accanimento senza alcuno scopo. Una criminalizzazione di professionisti che non hanno compiuto alcun fatto doloso.Purtroppo la voce del presidente Anelli non è rimasta isolata. Aveva uno scopo chiaramente politico, rivolto innanzitutto alle forze d'opposizione nell'attuale Parlamento, ma ha trovato una sponda anche nel centrodestra, nella persona del presidente della Regione Lombardia, Attilio Fontana. L'inquilino di Palazzo Lombardia ha ribadito che i medici radiati devono continuare ad esserlo, sempre in nome del primato della scienza. Peccato che nel 2023 lo stesso Fontana avesse sposato la tesi secondo cui la causa della gravità del Covid in alcune persone fosse dovuta a dei fantomatici geni risalenti all'uomo di Neanderthal. Non la mancanza di cure adeguate, non il tracollo della sanità territoriale, non la mancanza di posti letto conseguenza di scelte del governo regionale, ma l'uomo delle caverne aveva determinato in Lombardia il tasso di mortalità più alto d'Europa. Forse è su quanto accadde allora che Fontana dovrebbe indagare, anziché accodarsi alle richieste di accanimento, che rappresentano anche un brutto segnale politico che andrebbe prontamente colto e neutralizzato.Nota di BastaBugie: Andrea Zambrano nell'articolo seguente dal titolo "La condanna della vigile attesa e la vittoria dell'indometacina" parla della perizia della Commissione Covid che sancisce il fallimento della raccomandazione "paracetamolo e vigile attesa".Ecco l'articolo completo pubblicato su La Nuova Bussola Quotidiana il 28 luglio 2026:Per poter "apparecchiare" le prove della disfatta della gestione dell'ex ministro Roberto Speranza, la Commissione di indagine Covid aveva bisogno della "pistola fumante" da presentare all'ex titolare della Salute. E l'ha trovata con una corposa perizia tecnica che boccia senza appello la raccomandazione di Paracetamolo e vigile attesa che fu la prima indicazione ministeriale durante i drammatici mesi della pandemia.Ora, con un giudizio del genere, che certifica che l'approccio della vigile attesa nei pazienti paucisintomatici fu deleterio e aggravò i ricoveri in ospedale, la Commissione dovrà chiedere a Speranza di presentarsi per essere audito. E questo rappresenterà sicuramente uno dei momenti più importanti nella vita della Commissione alla ripresa dei lavori parlamentari dopo la pausa di agosto.E lo farà presentandogli i risultati di una perizia, che difficilmente l'ex ministro potrà smentire.Anzitutto perché la perizia è stata affidata non ad un medico qualunque, ma a un dirigente del Servizio pubblico, la dottoressa Simona Amato, direttore Uoc Accreditamento, Qualità e Risk Management dell'Asl Roma 2. In secondo luogo, perché la sua nomina è avvenuta all'unanimità da parte dell'ufficio di presidenza, nel quale siedono anche esponenti dell'opposizione che all'epoca erano al governo.Eppure, da un punto di vista medico, la perizia della dottoressa Amato non aggiunge nulla di quanto non fosse già noto, ma mette un punto finale su una vicenda che anche su queste colonne abbiamo documentato abbondantemente: l'abbandono terapeutico di migliaia di pazienti che, senza alcuna indicazione da parte dei loro medici di medicina generale, hanno visto aggravarsi la malattia da Covid 19 fino a dover ricorrere alle cure dell'ospedale e in alcuni casi rimettendoci la vita.Si potevano salvare? La domanda resta sullo sfondo, ma la risposta affermativa è implicita nell'analisi della vigile attesa, che, appurato non essere un vero e proprio protocollo medico, è stato considerata anche da parte della Federazione degli Ordini dei medici una «mera raccomandazione». Sì, una raccomandazione, però, che è stata seguita pedissequamente da migliaia di medici e ha fatto danni evidenti.Perché, come si legge nel documento che la Bussola ha potuto visionare «la vigile attesa è un atteggiamento che di norma viene assicurato quando le possibilità̀ di guarigione spontanea sono notevoli e se sappiamo che la malattia, che stiamo affrontando, difficilmente evolverà̀ in maniera pericolosa». E questo non era certo il caso del Covid 19.Ma anche perché «a ben vedere però nemmeno la vigile attesa e la terapia sintomatica avevano all'epoca evidenze solide ed incontrovertibili, vieppiù̀ che la malattia era pressoché́ sconosciuta. Eppure, la citata circolare, in maniera inconfutabile, indica per i pazienti positivi al tampone per infezione da SARS-COV-2, che siano asintomatici o pausintomatici, e si trovino a domicilio, la vigile attesa e trattamenti sintomatici quali ad esempio il paracetamolo». Una follia sanitaria. Motivo per cui - si legge sempre nel documento firmato dalla dottoressa Amato - la "vigile attesa" è andata a impattare nella situazione già critica della organizzazione delle cure territoriali» mentre «per un paziente "a domicilio" nella fase di replicazione virale sarebbe stato logico considerare l'introduzione precoce di trattamento ad azione antivirale, soprattutto se presenti fattori di rischio per progressione di malattia, piuttosto che la vigile attesa e il paracetamolo».Nel testo la Amato spiega molto bene - come la Bussola fece dando voce a numerosi medici sul campo - il meccanismo di proliferazione della malattia da Covid e, sostanzialmente, la sua evoluzione in una malattia diversa in fase grave. Invece «l'approccio di vigile attesa e paracetamolo indicato dalla prima circolare del 30 novembre 2020 non ha tenuto conto delle prove scientifiche effettivamente a disposizione nella letteratura scientifica dando, dunque, delle indicazioni non supportate da prove di efficacia e ponendo quindi a rischio di evoluzione di malattia i pazienti paucisintomatici a domicilio».E questo ha provocato

Mentor Sessions Ep. 085: Dr. Peter McCullough explains Fauci's diary, COVID-19 lab origins, mRNA vaccine safety, spike protein persistence, and the biopharma complex.600,000 Americans may have died from COVID vaccine complications — more than the virus itself, according to Dr. Peter McCullough — and Fauci just pleaded the Fifth on all of it. This conversation breaks down what the diary revealed, why the lab origin was buried, and where the mRNA platform goes next.Dr. Peter A. McCullough joins BTC Sessions to walk through Fauci's Senate Testimony, 1,100-page diary, the public-vs-private mask and lockdown contradictions, and the nearly million-dollar cash prize Fauci's staff engineered for him. You'll learn why McCullough believes SARS-CoV-2 is an engineered bioweapon, how his foundation found full-length spike protein and mRNA circulating three and a half years after injection, and what that means for the surge in 'turbo cancer.' You'll see the money trail through the biopharmaceutical complex — Gates, BioNTech, CEPI, Event 201, and the captured medical journals that refused to retract the fraudulent 'natural origins' paper. He also lays out the parallel research and wellness system he's building outside captured academia.⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 - Intro0:30 - Fauci Senate Testimony and Diary Release1:30 - 600,000 Vaccine Deaths Compared to COVID2:30 - Fauci's Private Knowledge on Masks and Fatality Rate4:00 - Fauci Staff Engineered Cash Prize Applications7:00 - Fauci's Personal Vaccine Blood Clot Injury8:00 - Ongoing Booster Push and Seventh Dose Campaign11:30 - Journals Suppressed Lab Leak Despite Private Admissions15:30 - Why Wet Market Origin Theory Persists16:00 - Bioweapons Treaty and SARS-CoV-2 Classification18:00 - Laboratory-Engineered Spike Protein Features19:30 - Spike Protein Detected 3.5 Years Post-Vaccination22:30 - Spike Detox Protocol and Treatment Options24:30 - Turbo Cancer Rise and Spike Protein Mechanism26:30 - mRNA Integration into Human Genome Evidence28:00 - Broader mRNA Vaccine Platform Safety Concerns29:30 - Hantavirus Scare and Moderna Vaccine Development31:00 - Anatomy of the Biopharmaceutical Complex34:30 - Gates Foundation Investment in BioNTech38:00 - Journal Advertising and Vaccine Ideology42:30 - Vatican Coin and 300-Year Vaccine Mythology45:00 - Fourth Turning and Parallel Health Systems48:00 - Vindication After Media Attacks on McCullough51:00 - McCullough Foundation Books and Wellness CompanyDr. McCullough references the McCullough Foundation (mcculloughfnd.org), his books 'The Courage to Face COVID-19' and 'Vaccines: Mythology, Ideology, and Reality,' a forthcoming book he says Bitcoiners will love, the Ultimate Spike Detox protocol, and The Wellness Company (twc.health).

Zeitgeist #29 s Janem Pačesem o sílící epidemii eboly, přípravě na nebezpečné viry i umělé inteligenci nahrazující vědce.Epidemii eboly v Demokratické republice Kongo se podle Světové zdravotnické organizace bohužel stále nedaří dostat pod kontrolu a virus se v zemi dál šíří. Dva měsíce po vyhlášení epidemie evidovala WHO přes 1926 nakažených a více než 700 mrtvých (data z 11. července).  Vývoj zatím podle všeho směřuje spíše k pesimističtějším epidemiologickým scénářům s mnohanásobně větším počtech nakažených. Jde přitom o kmen filoviru s názvem Bundibugyo proti němuž zatím není vyvinuté očkování ani účinná léčba.Americké centrum pro kontrolu a prevenci nemocí (CDC) zvýšilo na konci června úroveň reakce na epidemii eboly na nejvyšší stupeň, jakkoliv rozšíření nemoci do USA zůstává nízké. Dobrá zpráva podle WHO je, že se podařilo přinejmenším proteď zamezit šíření v sousední Ugandě, kde nákaze také podlehlo několik lidí ale v době natáčení nebyl už více než dva týdny evidován nový případ nákazy. Ebola patří k nejsmrtelnějším nemocem a rizika spojená s jejím šířením nelze brát na lehkou váhu nikde na světě. Pomoc zastavit její šíření můžete například příspěvkem v krizové sbírce organizace Lékaři bez hranic, která zasahují přímo v ohniscích nákazy a posiluje zdravotnickou péči v postižených oblastech.Tento virus se naštěstí nešíří vzduchem a jde tak o spíše nepravděpodobného kandidáta na původce příští pandemie, která by mohla ochromit podstatnou část světa podobně jako covid. Vědci upozorňují na jiné patogeny. Navíc se ukazuje, že nezanedbatelné riziko může pramenit také od generativní AI, která je za jistých podmínek ochotná nabídnout podrobný plán na vytvoření biologické zbraně třeba ve formě nebezpečného viru.Zmíněné webové stránky o ebole a hantaviru, které Jan Pačes vytváří spolu s Michaelou Liegertovou a pomocí AI agentů najdete zde:https://titan.img.cas.cz/ebola https://titan.img.cas.cz/hantavirusDoporučená literatura k tématu epizody od Jana Pačesa:Jonathan Kennedy - Pathogenesis: A History of the World in Eight Plague (2023) ISBN: 978-0593182963 Evoluční a historický pohled na to, jak infekční nemoci formovalylidskou civilizaci – od neolitické revoluce po COVID-19.

VOV1 - Trung tâm Kiểm soát và Phòng ngừa Dịch bệnh Trung Quốc (CDC Trung Quốc) cho biết, dịch COVID-19 tại nước này trong tháng 6 có xu hướng gia tăng, với gần 80.000 ca mắc mới được ghi nhận.Theo số liệu được công bố ngày 8/7, trong tháng 6, 31 tỉnh, khu tự trị, thành phố trực thuộc Trung ương Trung Quốc đã ghi nhận khoảng 79.000 ca mắc COVID-19 mới. Trong số này có 130 ca diễn biến nặng và một trường hợp tử vong là bệnh nhân có bệnh nền kết hợp nhiễm virus SARS-CoV-2. Tổng số ca mắc trong tháng có xu hướng tăng so với giai đoạn trước.Dữ liệu giám sát tại các bệnh viện trọng điểm cũng cho thấy tỷ lệ bệnh nhân dương tính với SARS-CoV-2 tăng liên tục trong tháng 6, từ 2,9% ở tuần đầu tháng lên 6,4% vào tuần cuối tháng.Về biến thể virus, kết quả giám sát cho thấy toàn bộ 3.741 mẫu giải trình tự gene trong tháng đều thuộc biến thể Omicron. Trong đó, biến thể NB.1.8.1 và các dòng phụ tiếp tục chiếm ưu thế, với tỷ lệ dao động từ 95,9% đến 98,8% trong bốn tuần liên tiếp.CDC Trung Quốc đánh giá các bằng chứng hiện nay chưa cho thấy sự xuất hiện của biến thể mới có khả năng làm gia tăng thêm nguy cơ đối với y tế công cộng.Theo báo cáo giám sát các bệnh truyền nhiễm đường hô hấp cấp tính trong tuần từ ngày 29/6 đến 5/7, virus cúm là tác nhân gây bệnh được phát hiện nhiều nhất, chiếm 11,6% số mẫu xét nghiệm dương tính, tiếp theo là SARS-CoV-2 với 9,6% và enterovirus với 9,1%.Trước diễn biến dịch bệnh, CDC Trung Quốc khuyến cáo người dân đeo khẩu trang khi đến cơ sở y tế, tại các địa điểm đông người hoặc khi sử dụng các phương tiện giao thông công cộng như máy bay, tàu hỏa và tàu điện ngầm, đặc biệt đối với người cao tuổi và người mắc bệnh mạn tính.Cơ quan này cũng khuyến nghị các nhóm nguy cơ cao như phụ nữ mang thai, trẻ nhỏ, người cao tuổi và người mắc bệnh mạn tính chủ động tiêm vaccine để giảm nguy cơ mắc bệnh và biến chứng nặng./. Trung Kiên/VOV Trung QuốcNhân viên y tế lấy mẫu xét nghiệm Covid-19.

fWotD Episode 3352: Virus Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 9 July 2026, is Virus.A virus is a submicroscopic infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of an organism. Viruses infect all life forms, from animals and plants to microorganisms, including bacteria and archaea. Viruses are found in almost every ecosystem on Earth and are the most numerous type of biological entity. Since Dmitri Ivanovsky's 1892 article describing a non-bacterial pathogen infecting tobacco plants and the discovery of the tobacco mosaic virus by Martinus Beijerinck in 1898, more than 16,000 of the millions of virus species have been described in detail. The study of viruses is known as virology, a subspeciality of microbiology.When infected, a host cell is often forced to rapidly produce thousands of copies of the original virus. When not inside an infected cell or in the process of infecting a cell, viruses exist in the form of independent viral particles, or virions, consisting of (i) genetic material, i.e., long molecules of DNA or RNA that encode the structure of the proteins by which the virus acts; (ii) a protein coat, the capsid, which surrounds and protects the genetic material; and in some cases (iii) an outside envelope of lipids. The shapes of these virus particles range from simple helical and icosahedral forms to more complex structures. Most virus species have virions too small to be seen with an optical microscope and are one-hundredth the size of most bacteria.The origins of viruses in the evolutionary history of life are still unclear. Some viruses may have evolved from plasmids, which are pieces of DNA that can move between cells. Other viruses may have evolved from bacteria. In evolution, viruses are an important means of horizontal gene transfer, which increases genetic diversity in a way analogous to sexual reproduction. Viruses are considered by some biologists to be a life form, because they carry genetic material, reproduce, and evolve through natural selection, although they lack some key characteristics, such as cell structure, that are generally considered necessary criteria for defining life. Because they possess some but not all such qualities, viruses have been described as "organisms at the edge of life" and as replicators.Viruses spread in many ways. One transmission pathway is through disease-bearing organisms known as vectors: for example, viruses are often transmitted from plant to plant by insects that feed on plant sap, such as aphids; and viruses in animals can be carried by blood-sucking insects. Many viruses spread in the air by coughing and sneezing, including influenza viruses, SARS-CoV-2, chickenpox, smallpox, and measles. Norovirus and rotavirus, common causes of viral gastroenteritis, are transmitted by the faecal–oral route, passed by hand-to-mouth contact or in food or water. The infectious dose of norovirus required to produce infection in humans is fewer than 100 particles. HIV is one of several viruses transmitted through sexual contact and by exposure to infected blood. The variety of host cells that a virus can infect is called its host range: this is narrow for viruses specialized to infect only a few species, or broad for viruses capable of infecting many.Viral infections in animals provoke an immune response that usually eliminates the infecting virus. Immune responses can also be produced by vaccines, which confer an artificially acquired immunity to the specific viral infection. Some viruses, including those that cause HIV/AIDS, HPV infection, and viral hepatitis, evade these immune responses and result in chronic infections. Several classes of antiviral drugs have been developed and around 100 individual antiviral drugs or combinations of them are used worldwide.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:26 UTC on Thursday, 9 July 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Virus on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Amy.

Spermidine Shows Promise for Boosting Vaccine Response A 2026 Aging Cell pilot study found that daily supplementation with 6 mg of spermidine was safe and well tolerated in adults over 65 years old following a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine booster. While overall immune responses were not significantly changed, older adults who had previously shown little or no vaccine response experienced notable improvements in anti-spike antibodies, neutralizing activity against multiple variants, and memory B-cell responses. The findings suggest that spermidine may help enhance immune resilience in vaccine non-responders by supporting cellular health and autophagy, a key process that declines with age. #LELearn #EDULiveforeverish

Send us Fan MailThe COVID-19 pandemic proved vaccine platforms can move at unprecedented speed. It also revealed how dangerously narrow the world's response really was, built almost entirely on a single technology.Dr. Dan Barouch and Kris Brown, Co-Founders of Vector Sciences, join host David E. Williams to discuss why durable pandemic preparedness depends on having multiple vaccine platforms rather than just one, how their Rheovax platform uses mucosal immunity delivered through the nose to block transmission rather than just prevent severe disease, and why public trust in vaccines depends on being honest about what each technology can and cannot actually do.

Researchers followed nearly the entire Swedish population under age 80 from 2020 through 2023 and found that while SARS-CoV-2 infection was linked to a temporary rise in new type 1 diabetes diagnoses, the risk declined over time. The study also found no evidence that COVID-19 vaccination increases the long-term risk of developing type 1 diabetes. Vaccination did not significantly change the relationship between COVID-19 infection and diabetes risk, and any small increase in diagnoses seen among adults shortly after a first vaccine dose was not seen after later doses or during longer follow-up. The researchers concluded that their findings do not support changing current COVID-19 vaccination recommendations because of concerns about type 1 diabetes risk. https://www.infectiousdiseaseadvisor.com/news/covid19-infection-may-increase-short-term-type-1-diabetes-risk/ XX Two new studies are challenging the traditional view that type 1 diabetes develops solely because the immune system attacks insulin-producing beta cells. Researchers from Indiana University found evidence that beta cells themselves may play an active role in determining whether they survive or succumb to the stresses that lead to type 1 diabetes. In the first study, scientists discovered that some healthy human beta cells can quickly activate an antiviral defense system when exposed to interferon-alpha, an immune signal often produced during viral infections. This response relies on molecules called reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are usually associated with cell damage but, in this case, appeared to help switch on protective antiviral genes. Researchers found this defense program in healthy cells and in people at risk for type 1 diabetes, but not in beta cells from people who already had the disease. The findings suggest that losing this built-in defense mechanism may make beta cells more vulnerable during the development of type 1 diabetes. The second study focused on autophagy, the process cells use to recycle damaged or worn-out components. Using a new imaging technique, researchers observed that beta cells in a mouse model of type 1 diabetes showed defects in autophagy before blood sugar levels began to rise and even before a full immune attack was underway. This suggests that problems inside the beta cells may occur early in the disease process rather than being caused entirely by the immune system. Together, the studies point to a more complex picture of type 1 diabetes. While they do not show that beta-cell defects cause the disease, they suggest that differences in how beta cells respond to stress, viral signals, and cellular damage may influence who develops type 1 diabetes and how the disease progresses. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-06-beta-cells-players-diabetes.html XX Researchers have created the most detailed map yet of how the human pancreas develops during childhood, offering new clues about why children are especially vulnerable to developing diabetes. The study, published in Nature Communications, examined pancreatic tissue from 123 children without diabetes, ranging from newborns through age 10. Using advanced imaging techniques, scientists tracked how insulin-producing islet cells grow and mature during the first decade of life. The researchers found that pancreas size varies dramatically at birth, with some infants having pancreases nearly four times larger than others. They also discovered that insulin-producing beta cells grow more slowly after birth than previously thought, suggesting that much of a person's lifelong beta cell capacity may be established before birth and during early childhood. Other findings showed that insulin-producing cells mature earlier than glucagon-producing cells and that new hormone-producing cells may continue to form after birth. The researchers hope this new understanding of pancreas development will help scientists identify diabetes risk earlier and develop better strategies for prevention and treatment in children. https://news.vumc.org/2026/06/29/unlocking-diabetes-secrets-pediatric-organ-donors-help-map-a-path-to-a-cure-and-prevention/   XX At the American Diabetes Association annual meeting, 2-year results from the SUPPRESS-EARLY trial showed that initiating tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound) early in the course of type 2 diabetes led to substantially higher rates of near-normal glycemic control and also led to broader metabolic improvements compared with intensive conventional therapy.   In this MedPage Today video, investigator Stefano Del Prato, MD, of the University of Pisa in Italy, discusses the findings.     Following is a transcript of his remarks:   What happened is that in the tirzepatide-treated arm, 85% of the population at the end of the second year was on the maximum dose of tirzepatide 15 mg. And then the remaining 15 with the different doses.   Interestingly, in the population that had been treated with the intensive conventional approach, 85% of them ended up to have, on top of metformin, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, mainly represented by subcutaneous semaglutide [Ozempic, Wegovy], 60+%, another 15% on oral semaglutide [Rybelsus], and the remaining on dulaglutide [Trulicity].   And I have to say that maybe the recommendation to really push along the line to try to achieve and to strive to achieve [glycemic] control was successful in these individuals. Because the population that had been recruited in the study started off with a baseline A1C of 7.8% and it went down to 6.3% in the conventionally intensive treatment, which is not bad at all, on average is below the target of 6.5%.     However, when we look at the effect of tirzepatide, the final level of A1C at the end of the second year was 5.6%, which is on average below the upper limit of the normal range for A1C, 5.7%. This also translates into more people not only achieving normal glycemia, if we can define normal glycemia as A1C below 5.7%, greater than what we observed in conventionally treated individuals. So it was around three times more people achieving an A1C of 5.7%, in the range of around 65%, as compared to 28% with people on a conventional optimized treatment.   Now, this is not surprising knowing the potency of tirzepatide. But again, going back to the rationale of the design, can we change what is the natural history of the disease? This seems to be at least of interest and it's possibly changing the trajectory of the disease for glycemic control, as I mentioned, but also in terms of the body weight and waist circumference because both body weight and waist circumference went much lower with tirzepatide compared to the conventional treatment.   Tirzepatide also was associated with an improvement in the lipid profile, in particular with the LDL, triglycerides, and the triglyceride concentration and non-HDL cholesterol, and also with a statistically significantly lower systolic blood pressure with a numerical reduction in the diastolic blood pressure.   And also the other thing that probably will ... become more apparent with the study continuing is that the investigators were allowed to add on any other treatment ... needed to achieve their target. So tirzepatide was just metformin and tirzepatide. In the control group, there was already 10% of people who were receiving two drugs on top of the metformin.   So another potential result of the trial is that it's possible to achieve and maintain better glycemic or better metabolic control over the time without really needing to increase the number of medications in order to achieve that goal. And we know that type 2 diabetes is a progressive condition often requiring intensification of the treatment.   So these initial results really stand for a great opportunity with tirzepatide. Of course, we need to wait for the 4 years just to confirm that this is indeed the case, but the initial result seems to point along that line. https://www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcoverage/adavideopearls/121967 XX A study from the University of Virginia found that high blood pressure is extremely common among people with diabetes, even among those who believe their blood pressure is under control. Researchers measured blood pressure in 172 adults with type 1 or type 2 diabetes during routine eye clinic visits and found that only 8% had normal readings. About half had stage 2 hypertension, and more than 10% had blood pressure levels high enough to be considered a medical emergency. The study also revealed that many patients were unaware of how serious their blood pressure problems were. Among those who thought their hypertension was well controlled, more than half still had stage 2 hypertension. Nearly 60% of participants were advised to contact their primary care provider, and one patient required an emergency department referral. Most patients supported blood pressure screening during eye exams, leading researchers to suggest that routine blood pressure checks in ophthalmology clinics could help identify undiagnosed or poorly controlled hypertension before it leads to serious complications such as heart attack, stroke, or worsening diabetic eye disease. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-06-routine-eye-exams-reveal-stage.html XX What is going on with retatrutide? This is the next generation GLP-1 but it's not authorized outside of clinical trials. Big investigation by CBS shows retatrutide is for sale all over the internet, a phenomenon they say has no modern precedent. CBS News identified more than 120 websites selling or promoting retatrutide, including more than 50 clinics staffed by licensed medical professionals. After being contacted by CBS News, at least 21 clinics abruptly removed retatrutide from their websites or changed the language to state they don't offer it. Others defended prescribing it, saying they're confident enough in results from clinical trials sponsored by drugmaker Eli Lilly that they didn't need to wait for the FDA's independent, rigorous review. An FDA spokesperson said retatrutide "has not been found safe or effective for any condition," adding that it "cannot be manufactured or distributed except for investigational use." The Justice Department is prosecuting two cases – in Utah and Florida – involving the sale and prescription of retatrutide. But the first line of enforcement is often at the state level. Ohio's Board of Pharmacy has taken action against several pharmacies and clinics providing retatrutide, and just last month, Alabama's Medical Board warned physicians against prescribing research-grade medications. The FDA has sent 14 warning letters to companies that have advertised retatrutide since 2024. Of these, at least six have continued to offer it online, including a business called Pink Pony Peptides. A TikTok account associated with the firm responded to the warning in April by taunting the FDA, boasting that the business "just had the best 24 hours ever." In May, Eli Lilly announced that participants in a large clinical trial taking the highest dose of retatrutide lost an average of 28% of their body weight over 80 weeks. Side effects – including nausea, diarrhea, constipation and vomiting – were comparable to similar therapies, the company said. "Anyone purporting to sell retatrutide to consumers is breaking the law," an Eli Lilly spokesperson said https://www.cbsnews.com/projects/2026/experimental-weight-loss-drug/ XX Pioneering research has developed a new way of creating carbohydrate-based medicines, which could ultimately replace costly drugs for common health conditions, using two cheap basic ingredients – table sugar and vinegar. These medications include SGLT2 inhibitors, widely prescribed drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes, heart failure and chronic kidney disease. Co-lead author Professor Phil Baran, Dr. Richard A. Lerner Endowed Chair at Scripps Research, in San Diego, California, said: "The point of this is to show that anyone in a garage can make an SGLT2 inhibitor with reagents that are widely available. We have not patented this method, so we welcome any generic drug company – or anyone else – who wants to use it to help bring costs down for patients." https://www.newswise.com/articles/new-study-shows-table-sugar-could-hold-a-cheaper-quicker-key-to-making-vital-drugs-for-diabetes-heart-failure-and-chronic-kidney-disease XX England and Wales approve teplizumab to slow progression of T1D. At the moment, the Scottish Medicines Consortium does not have an appraisal of Tzield on the go, so, there is likely to be a disparity in access within the UK for the time being. In Northern Ireland, access will depend on a review and adoption of NICE guidance.  Sanofi is expecting to see an uptick in momentum thanks to two subsequent FDA approvals, one in children as young as one with stage 2 T1D, and a second to delay the decline in endogenous insulin production in children aged eight to 17 years recently diagnosed with stage 3 T1D. btw you might here more people referring to stage 4 diabetes. They've added that to include people diagnosed with type 1 who've been on insulin for a longer period of time – basically long enough to not be eligible for the current guidelines for Tzield. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce8mzd94r76oXX XX Obesity Association, a division of the American Diabetes Association® (the association), announced the next section in the Standards of Care in Overweight and Obesity, "Screening, Diagnosis, Evaluation, and Staging of Obesity in Adults," published in Diabetes, Obesity, and CardioMetabolic CARE® and BMJ Open Diabetes Research & Care.  Key highlights of the guidance: Early screening: Annual BMI screening with emphasis on tracking weight trends to identify risk earlier, including a longitudinal life-event weight graph tool for standardized assessment. Enhanced diagnosis: Combines BMI with waist measurements and population-specific thresholds to improve accuracy. Notably, the guidelines recommend that BMI in the overweight range together with central adiposity measurements warrant a formal obesity diagnosis. Comprehensive evaluation: Holistic assessment including medical, behavioral, and social factors. Offers a fully integrated obesity diagnostic algorithm. Risk stratification: Use of tools like the Edmonton Obesity Staging System to guide care. Chronic care approach: Ongoing monitoring and follow-up to support long-term management.

San Diego-based Dexcom plans to formally begin the new app rollout in July for Apple iPhone and Android users in the U.S. Dexcom said its reimagined app aims to make glucose insights easier to understand and act on. It hopes to help build awareness of how food, activity, sleep and stress influence overall wellbeing.   The company also reiterated plans to launch Stelo internationally. It expects to bring the sensor to the UK, Australia, New Zealand and South Korea later this year, continuing into 2027. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/dexcom-launches-enhanced-stelo-app/ XX MannKind Corporation recently announced it received a grant from Breakthrough T1D to support the INHALE-1 clinical study of Afrezza, its ultra rapid-acting inhaled insulin, in newly diagnosed pediatric type 1 diabetes patients aged 10 to under 18 years. This external funding for a trial focused on early use of Afrezza in children highlights growing third-party support for inhaled insulin in pediatric diabetes care. https://simplywall.st/stocks/us/pharmaceuticals-biotech/nasdaq-mnkd/mannkind/news/afrezza-pediatric-trial-grant-might-change-the-case-for-inve XX Alexander Zverev heads into Wimbledon with plenty of momentum. The French Open champion returns to the All England Club looking to build on his first Grand Slam title and gain ground on Carlos Alcaraz in the race for the No. 2 spot in the ATP rankings. Zverev has an opportunity to make up points quickly after a first-round exit at Wimbledon last year. But his final tune-up before Wimbledon came with an unexpected challenge. During his semifinal loss to Taylor Fritz at the Halle Open, Zverev said a malfunctioning glucose sensor led to serious diabetes management issues on court. The sensor incorrectly showed his blood sugar was high when it was actually low, causing him to take more insulin than needed. "I had huge problems with the sugar because the sensor I use gave me a completely incorrect reading," Zverev said after the match. "During the match, or rather during the first 45 minutes, I had to consume about 350 grams of sugar. I felt absolutely terrible." Despite feeling unwell, Zverev pushed the match to three sets before falling 6-7(4), 6-4, 7-5 to Fritz. He credited his opponent with playing the better match and said the diabetes-related issue was not an excuse for the result. Zverev, who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 4, uses Medtronic diabetes technology to help manage his glucose levels while competing on the ATP Tour. He said the sensor error was the first major problem he has experienced after nearly a decade of using the technology. The German said the incident should not affect his Wimbledon preparations. With the sensor issue behind him, Zverev will begin his Wimbledon campaign focused on adding another strong result to what has already been a breakthrough season.   https://www.reuters.com/sports/tennis/zverev-says-glucose-sensor-malfunction-affected-halle-semi-final-loss-fritz-2026-06-21/

In this episode, Dr. Chuang discusses some of her research, which has focused on racial disparities in health care delivery. She shares her journey to this topic starting with her childhood experiences as a witness to structural racism and implicit bias. She discusses how bias and structural inequities are reproduced in many ways, all affecting health and healthcare outcomes. Her work includes several focuses including interpersonal bias in healthcare communication with patients with serious illness and their families, bias in public health practices and bias in Artificial Intelligence. The discussion concludes with the ways that biomedical research has contributed to bias in healthcare over time. The discussion also includes some ways that researchers can move forward even in a challenging funding environment.Chuang E, Hope AA, Allyn K, Szalkiewicz E, Gary B, Gong MN.

Christine Massey sent FOIA requests to 225 institutions across 40 countries — including eight separate requests to the CDC — asking for any record of SARS-CoV-2 being isolated and purified from a patient's bodily fluid. Not one institution produced such a record.

El gobierno de Estados Unidos acaba de liberar documentos nunca antes vistos sobre el origen del COVID 19, Tulsi Gabbard y la administración de Donald Trump acusan al Dr. Anthony Fauci de orquestar el diseño del virus. Cinco años después del inicio de la pandemia, una de las preguntas más importantes de la historia reciente sigue sin una respuesta definitiva: ¿cómo comenzó realmente el COVID-19? En este video analizamos las principales teorías sobre el origen del SARS-CoV-2, revisamos la evidencia científica disponible y exploramos por qué este debate sigue siendo uno de los más complejos y politizados de la ciencia moderna.A lo largo del episodio examinamos las dos hipótesis que concentran la mayor atención: el origen zoonótico, en el que el virus habría pasado de animales a humanos, y la posibilidad de un incidente relacionado con un laboratorio. Explicamos qué evidencia respalda cada hipótesis, cuáles son sus limitaciones y qué preguntas continúan sin respuesta. El objetivo no es promover una conclusión predeterminada, sino comprender qué dicen los estudios, los informes científicos y las investigaciones realizadas hasta la fecha.También hablamos de la evolución de este debate a lo largo de los años, de cómo la incertidumbre científica fue interpretada en ocasiones como una respuesta definitiva y de qué manera la política, los medios de comunicación y las tensiones internacionales influyeron en la conversación pública. Analizamos por qué distinguir entre evidencia, hipótesis y especulación es fundamental cuando se estudia un evento de esta magnitud.Además, exploramos cómo funcionan las investigaciones sobre el origen de nuevas enfermedades infecciosas, qué papel desempeñan la virología, la epidemiología y la biología evolutiva, y por qué reconstruir el inicio de una pandemia puede tomar muchos años o incluso no llegar nunca a una respuesta completamente concluyente.Si te interesan temas como COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, pandemias, virología, epidemiología, salud pública, enfermedades infecciosas, bioseguridad, ciencia y medicina, suscríbete.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified records of US government funding for more than 120 biolabs across over 30 countries, including more than 40 in Ukraine handling dangerous pathogens like anthrax, plague, and Ebola – facts the media spent years dismissing as conspiracy theories. In 2022, USA Today called the US-funded Ukraine bioweapon lab claims “false,” CBC labeled them a “QAnon conspiracy theory” and NBC News framed the story as “misinformation” that US officials “vehemently denied” — the same labs Gabbard's office now says were real all along. Dr. Drew is joined by Emmy-winning producer and author Rob Rosen to examine why what gets left out of the news can distort the truth as much as what gets said. Rosen, author of “Crimes of Omission,” argues that media bias is driven less by what reporters say than by what they choose to omit. He and Dr. Drew tie the Gabbard disclosures to Senator Rand Paul's committee findings on US funding tied to SARS-CoV-2 research and Senator Ron Johnson's work on what health agencies knew about vaccine safety signals, and asks why almost none of it reaches the evening news. Political theorist Dr. Ralph Schoellhammer of the Mathias Corvinus Collegium in Budapest breaks down the unrest in Belfast, the fight over flags during the World Cup, and the deepening fractures inside Europe over migration policy. 2023 CNN Hero Yasmine Arrington Brooks discusses her nonprofit work supporting the children of incarcerated parents. Rob Rosen is an Emmy-winning producer, director, and author. He created and directed the limited series ‘The Infomercials That Sold Us' starring Dennis Miller, as well as the true-crime series ‘Reasonable Doubt'. He is the author of “Crimes of Omission: Distorted Justice: The Media's War on Truth.” Follow at https://x.com/RobRosen14⠀Dr. Ralph Schoellhammer is the Head of the Center for Applied History and International Relations Theory at the Mathias Corvinus Collegium in Budapest.

For the first time in decades, US officials confirmed new cases of the New World screwworm: a flesh-eating parasite that eats living tissue from the inside out and can cross over to humans. As the government prepares emergency declarations and a $750 million fly factory in Texas, McCullough Foundation epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher reveals the not-so-surprising, over-the-counter medication that he says “provided more than 97% protection against screwworm infestations in wounds under real-world conditions.” But because it's so cheap and easily available, you will likely never hear about it in the headlines. In this special episode hosted by Dr. Kelly Victory, Nic Hulscher discusses the New World screwworm, ebola, and breaks down the meteoric rise of alpha-gal syndrome (meat allergies) and its connections to bio-engineered ticks. Nicolas Hulscher is an epidemiologist and administrator at the McCullough Foundation. He earned a Master of Public Health degree with a specialization in epidemiology at Michigan School of Public Health. He has contributed to the publication of more than 25 scientific studies, advancing understanding of COVID-19 vaccine injuries, childhood vaccine injuries, cancer treatments, SARS-CoV-2, and H5N1 avian influenza.

Dr. Paul Thomas sits down with Peter McCullough, M.D. — internist, cardiologist, epidemiologist, and author of the new book *[Vaccines, Mythology, Ideology and Reality](https://a.co/d/02qncPEJ)* — for one of the most substantive children's health conversations this show has hosted. Dr. McCullough has published over a thousand peer-reviewed articles, established the first life-saving treatment protocol for SARS-CoV-2, and has spent years leading the [McCullough Foundation](https://mcculloughfnd.org/)'s systematic review of the vaccination literature. This is that conversation.

Discover 5 key autoimmune triggers hiding in your past. From COVID and herpes simplex to staph, Epstein-Barr, and strep infections, Nurse Doza breaks down how past infections can reprogram your immune system to attack your own tissue — and what gut health has to do with it all. Gut (L-Glutamine) by MSW Nutrition Gut, featuring 4 grams of pure L-Glutamine per scoop, is the primary fuel source for the cells that line your intestinal wall. When past infections, antibiotics, or chronic stress compromise your gut barrier, your immune system loses its most important line of defense — creating the conditions where autoimmune triggers thrive. Gut helps repair the gut lining, reduce digestive inflammation, and support the immune cells that depend on a healthy gut to function properly. Whether you're managing an existing autoimmune disorder or working to prevent one, healing your gut is where it starts.

Autoimmune disease often starts long before symptoms become obvious, and advanced testing may help uncover the hidden triggers driving inflammation, fatigue, brain fog, and chronic illness. In this episode, Dr. Jen speaks with Rubina Vojdani of Immunosciences Lab about how viruses like EBV, HHV-6, SARS-CoV-2, and Lyme-related infections can contribute to immune dysregulation, molecular mimicry, neuroinflammation, and autoimmune patterns. They discuss why conventional screening may miss key clues, how advanced panels can help identify root causes, and why monitoring markers over time can empower both practitioners and patients to intervene earlier and more precisely. Rubina Vojdani is the Lab Manager and Marketing Director at Immunosciences Lab, a clinical laboratory focused on functional immunology, autoimmunity, viral triggers, Lyme disease, and chronic inflammatory conditions. Working alongside her father, world-renowned immunologist Dr. Aristo Vojdani, Rubina helps bridge complex laboratory science with real-world clinical practice.

On this, our 325th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss Hanta virus and drought. First: what is the natural history of Hantavirus, do any Hantaviruses transmit directly from human to human, and what is going on with the M.V. Hondius, the cruise ship on which Hantavirus has made a stand? Given its mechanisms of action, Ivermectin is likely to treat Hantavirus (a negative sense single-stranded RNA virus), but the WHO dismisses the possibility. Moderna is working on a Hantavirus vaccine, even though the Number Needed to Treat is sky high. What is going on? Then: in Washington state, we're experiencing a very wet drought. The Department of Ecology has declared a drought (again), and the snow pack is low, but all other indicators—from rivers to reservoirs to soil moisture—are excellent. Cliff Mass, atmospheric scientist, puts the evidence in one place and calls bull on the drought diagnosis.*****Our sponsors:Xlear: Xylitol nasal spray that acts as prophylaxis against respiratory illnesses by reducing the stickiness of bacteria and viruses.
