A large Lancet meta-analysis found no clinically meaningful association between prenatal acetaminophen exposure and autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability after restricting analyses to adjusted and sibling-comparison studies, with odds ratios essentially null; acetaminophen remains first-line for pain and fever in pregnancy. A Nordic BMJ case-control study of more than 17,000 gastric cancer cases found no increased risk of non-cardia adenocarcinoma with long-term proton pump inhibitor use after comprehensive confounder adjustment. Finally, a U.S. cohort study of older adults linked shingles vaccination to lower inflammation and slower biological aging across multiple systems, though causality cannot be confirmed due to observational design.

Researchers say a shingles vaccine could slow the progression of dementia and lower the risk of dying from it. Earlier this year, they produced the strongest evidence yet that the vaccine might reduce the risk of getting dementia in the first place. Dr. Nathan Stall, a clinician scientist and geriatrics lead at Sinai Health explains why shingles may be linked to cognitive decline and how a shingles vaccine could help.

In a world where the word “vaccine” has become both a household term and a lightning rod for debate, it's easy to forget the remarkable impact immunizations have had on public health. In this episode of “The Valley Today,” host Janet Michael sat down with Dr. Jeff Feit, Valley Health's Population and Community Health Officer, to revisit the story of vaccines—past, present, and future. A Legacy of Prevention Dr. Feit, a former family doctor, recalls a time when diseases like measles, mumps, and polio were not just textbook topics, but real threats. “The smallpox vaccine was the original vaccine story,” he explains, noting that the eradication of smallpox stands as one of medicine's greatest triumphs. Since then, vaccines have saved an estimated 150 million children in the last 50 years, with over 93 million lives spared from measles alone. From Commonplace to Rare—and Back Again? For many clinicians today, diseases like measles are so rare that they've never seen a case. “We're lucky now,” Dr. Feit says, “but that luck is the result of decades of widespread vaccination.” He recounts how the introduction of certain vaccines virtually eliminated once-common causes of childhood hospitalization and death. Yet, as vaccination rates dip in some communities, these diseases threaten to return. The Expanding Vaccine Schedule Janet shares her own journey as a parent, navigating an ever-growing list of recommended vaccines. Dr. Feit explains the rationale: while some vaccines prevent common, deadly diseases, others—like the meningitis and HPV vaccines—target rarer but devastating illnesses. “If they're preventable, shouldn't we try to prevent them?” he asks. Dispelling Myths and Building Trust The conversation turns to vaccine hesitancy, fueled in part by misinformation and a breakdown in trust. Dr. Feit addresses the long-debunked myth linking vaccines to autism, emphasizing the importance of relying on credible, research-based sources. “There's just no evidence it's connected,” he says, urging listeners to consult trusted healthcare providers rather than social media. The COVID-19 Effect COVID-19 brought vaccines back into the spotlight, with new technologies and rapid development sparking both hope and skepticism. Dr. Feit acknowledges the challenges but points to overwhelming data: “The more vaccinated, the fewer people died of COVID.” He predicts that future generations will view COVID shots as routine, much like measles vaccines are today. A Call to Community Ultimately, Dr. Feit sees vaccination as an act of community care. “Public health is hard because it forces us to rely on one another,” he reflects. The benefits of vaccines extend beyond individual protection—they safeguard the most vulnerable among us. Where to Turn for Answers For those seeking reliable information, Dr. Feit recommends starting with reputable institutions like the Mayo Clinic or Cleveland Clinic, and—most importantly—building a trusting relationship with a primary care provider. “They know your family history and can help you make informed decisions,” he says. As the episode closes, Janet and Dr. Feit agree: education and open dialogue remain essential. Vaccines have transformed our world, but their story is still being written—one conversation, one community, and one shot at a time.
Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 6-05-2025: Dr. Dawn answers an email about Dupuytren's contracture treatment, explaining her clinic experience using acupuncture anesthesia combined with Traumeel injections directly into palm nodules. She describes how this anti-inflammatory homeopathic compound, when injected into tendon sheaths, can break the cycle of fibrosis formation. Dr. Dawn explores fascinating quantum physics concepts involving collagen microstructure, water molecules, and hydrogen ion movement that may explain how acupuncture and homeopathy work through crystalline formations in collagen tubules. She discusses vitamin A's critical role in measles complications, explaining how deficiency dramatically increases risks of encephalitis and cardiac damage. Dr. Dawn covers two forms of dietary vitamin A - beta carotene from plants requiring enzymatic conversion, and vitamin A from animal products. She warns about vitamin A toxicity risks, particularly birth defects in pregnancy, while noting that typical American diets are adequate unlike vitamin D. Dr. Dawn examines vitamin D deficiency affecting 68% of children in a South Florida study, linking inadequate levels to bone health, immune function, and gut barrier integrity. She explains how vitamin D receptors throughout the body regulate cell differentiation, insulin secretion, and tight junction formation that prevents leaky gut syndrome. There are higher deficiency rates in darker-skinned populations and the historical context of rickets during industrialization when urban environments blocked sunlight exposure. She highlights revolutionary medical technology, the world's smallest pacemaker for newborns, half the size of a rice grain. This injectable device dissolves naturally after hearts self-repair, controlled by light-emitting patches communicating through the baby's skin. This breakthrough eliminates risky surgical removal procedures that caused complications, such as Neil Armstrong's death from pacemaker wire infections. Dr. Dawn discusses research showing shingles vaccination reduces dementia risk by 20%, particularly in women. She explains the natural experiment in Wales where universal healthcare created clear vaccination cutoff dates, allowing researchers to compare dementia rates. Dr. Dawn hypothesizes that cross-immunity against herpes viruses may protect brain tissue, noting even stronger protection with newer Shingrix vaccines compared to older Zostavax. She covers alarming increases in invasive Group A Streptococcus infections, with cases more than doubling from 2013 to 2022. Dr. Dawn explains how flesh-eating bacteria secretes enzymes that dissolve epithelial barriers in throats and lungs, allowing systemic spread that destroys tissue. She links rising cases to increasing diabetes and obesity rates that compromise immune function, noting devastating mortality rates approaching 10,000 deaths nationwide. Dr. Dawn celebrates a breakthrough antibiotic discovery of Lariocidin which works against highly drug-resistant bacteria through novel protein synthesis inhibition. She explains how antibiotic resistance spreads between bacterial species just like social media memes, emphasizing the urgent need for new treatments as 4 million people die annually from resistant infections. Dr. Dawn advocates for public funding since pharmaceutical companies avoid antibiotic development due to poor profit margins. She answers an email about Epstein-Barr virus detection, explaining its role in mononucleosis, Burkitt's lymphoma, and chronic fatigue syndrome. Dr. Dawn describes how EBV can remain dormant and reactivate during stress or immunocompromise, potentially triggering autoimmunity. She discusses similarities between EBV reactivation, Lyme disease, and long COVID, suggesting they may represent variations of the same inflammatory syndrome with different triggers. She explores the nocebo effect - how negative expectations worsen outcomes - and its amplification through social media. Dr. Dawn cites studies showing people warned about erectile dysfunction or altitude headaches experience these symptoms more frequently. She discusses recent phenomena like TikTok-induced tics and vaccine side effect amplification, warning that online health information creates dangerous nocebo loops that spread faster than traditional word-of-mouth.

A large study in Wales found that older adults who received the shingles vaccine had a 20% lower risk of developing dementia over seven years, with the strongest effect seen in women. U.S. measles cases have surged past 500, driven largely by outbreaks in West Texas and linked to international travel, underscoring critical gaps in vaccination coverage. Meanwhile, new research shows that even the wealthiest Americans have shorter life expectancies than their European peers, pointing to systemic health disadvantages in the U.S.
