Send us a textIn a TBMM first, we read a book with substantially different editions! That's right, we all came to the podcasting table calling the main character by different names. We got that sorted out (and we're defaulting to the most current edition) and dove right in to this lovely book, The Birchbark House, by Louise Erdrich. This book made us laugh and cry and everything in between as we follow Omakakiins and her family through the seasons. This week we discuss whether Old Tallow is a feminist legend, whether a baby can be reincarnated as a bird, and the pretty disturbing origins of the smallpox vaccine. We compare and contrast today's title with the Little House books and examine femininity and our central characters' relationships with their environment. These Books Made Me is a podcast about the literary heroines who shaped us and is a product of the Prince George's County Memorial Library System podcast network.

Over 15 countries, 20 health agencies and 350 emergency groups took part in this simulation over the 2 day scheduled drill. The simulation centers around the outbreak of a fictional virus and the use of crazy emergency orders, lockdowns and other mandates for a "rapid pandemic response." This drill is drawing many parallels to Event 201 which was a simulation surrounding so-called "Covid 19" in 2019, ending in October of that year. Crimson Contagion was a similar simulation that took place in 2019. Then there is of course the infamous Operation Dark Winter which centered around Smallpox shortly before 9/11 in 2001. This drill takes place as fearmongering around Bird Flu dramatically escalates and the Trump Administration fast-tracks the Bill Gates funded Self Amplifying mRNA Bird Flu vaccines we've been warning of for years. Are we seeing the beginning of Operation Warpspeed 2.0? According to eugenicist Bill Gates, Trump claims he's excited to work on the next Operation Warpspeed. Trump to this day still claims his launch of Operation Warpspeed saved millions of lives with injections. Talk about out of touch.

Host: Carol MacAllister Guest: Barbara (Bobbie) Walsh Description: Today, we all take vaccines for granted, and some even ignore them, but most seniors remember the diseases that plagued our childhoods and for which vaccines were miracle cures. Bobbie Walsh was one of those unsung heroes who worked tirelessly for 32 years creating vaccines for many diseases, but notably smallpox, which killed 300 million people in the 20th century alone. This is the story of how the smallpox vaccine was created in our central PA backyard (the Wyeth Labs in Marietta). On May 8, 1980, the World Health Organization declared smallpox eradicated worldwide. But if it should rear its ugly head again, the CDC still has enough vaccine to stop it.

Tonix Pharmaceuticals CEO Dr. Seth Lederman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has been awarded a grant from the Medical CBRN Defense Consortium to support the continued development of its next-generation vaccine candidate. MCDC is a consortium comprising industrial, academic, and non-profit organizations that assist the U.S. government in advancing medical solutions to protect against chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats. Dr. Lederman explained that the vaccine candidate is being developed as an improved immunization option for mpox and smallpox, with the potential for delivery via innovative alternative methods designed to enhance patient compliance, ease of administration, and overall tolerability. The MCDC grant will support comprehensive market analyses, target market identification, and commercialization planning for both private and government sectors. The investigational vaccine is a minimally replicating live-virus formulation based on a modified orthopoxvirus. It has demonstrated the ability to provide single-dose immune protection against mpox in preclinical studies while offering improved tolerability compared to traditional live-virus vaccines. Previous studies have also shown its effectiveness in protecting animals from lethal intratracheal exposure to a more virulent strain of the mpox virus. Tonix is currently preparing for Phase 1 clinical trials in both the United States and Kenya. Kenya, which is on the outskirts of an MPOX outbreak in Africa, presents an opportunity to test the vaccine in an area with a growing case burden. #proactiveinvestors #tonixpharmaceuticalsholdingcorp #nasdaq #tnxp #Biotech #MPOXVaccine #Smallpox #TNX801 #VaccineDevelopment #ClinicalTrials #PharmaceuticalNews #MedicalResearch #WHO #GlobalHealth #InfectiousDiseases #Biopharma #ProactiveInvestors

Birdt's position is,"I support trans females without a competitive advantage from competing in the lady's division.",Frank Rizzi (A7) publicly supports a chromosome-based policy similar to IPSC's that denies male competitors from competing in ladies division.

In this episode, Therese Markow and Richard Conniff discuss his book "Ending Epidemics," which explores the history of infectious diseases and vaccines. Richard highlights the evolution from ancient humoral theories, which thrived for nearly 2000 years, to modern germ theory, emphasizing the importance of cleanliness and vaccination. He recounts the development of the smallpox vaccine by Edward Jenner and the polio vaccine by Jonas Salk, noting initial resistance and the success of widespread vaccination. He also addresses the current resistance to COVID-19 vaccines, stressing the importance of balancing vaccine risks against disease risks. He also warns of the dangers of withdrawing from global health organizations like the WHO.    Key Takeaways: The Semmelweis Reflex is the tendency of people to stick with what they already believe and ignore clear evidence that it's wrong. Smallpox has been eradicated. In many areas, they were still using Jenner's vaccine, which still worked up until 1980. With some viruses,  illnesses are dormant but can crop up later in life, such as chickenpox and shingles.  Viruses hide in the nervous system When you are thinking about vaccines, think about the disease, and then think about what the relative risk of the vaccine is versus the risk of the disease.   "The problem is that people can develop these imaginary problems with vaccines because they do not have any conception of how awful the disease is that the vaccine is preventing." —  Richard Conniff   Episode References:  Ending Epidemics: A History of Escape from Contagion - https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262552974/ending-epidemics/ The Species Seekers: Heroes, Fools, and the Mad Pursuit of Life on Earth - https://wwnorton.com/books/9780393341324     Connect with Richard Conniff: Professional Bio: https://mitpress.mit.edu/author/richard-conniff-39217/  Website: https://strangebehaviors.wordpress.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-conniff-9689a02/    Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Threads: @critically_speaking Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net      Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

NanoViricides CEO Dr Anil Diwan joined Steve Darling from Proactive shared pivotal updates with Proactive, announcing the company's engagement of a Clinical Research Organization to conduct a Phase II clinical trial for its innovative broad-spectrum antiviral therapy. This milestone represents a significant step in advancing the therapy through the regulatory process. The upcoming Phase II trial will evaluate the effectiveness of the therapy in treating MPox, a disease caused by the human Mpox virus that has triggered a regional pandemic in parts of Africa, including the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. In 2024, the World Health Organization declared MPox a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. Currently, no approved treatments exist for infections caused by this virus. The therapy has shown strong antiviral activity in preclinical studies, particularly against an orthopoxvirus model that serves as a critical predictor of efficacy for MPox and Smallpox. Notably, its effectiveness matched that of tecovirimat, a widely recognized antiviral, in both direct skin and lung infection models. Dr. Diwan underscored the potential impact of this therapy in addressing a pressing global health challenge, positioning NanoViricides as a leader in developing innovative treatments for diseases caused by orthopoxviruses. With this trial, the company aims to provide a critical solution to an urgent unmet medical need. #proactiveinvestors #nanoviricidesinc #nyseamerican #nnvc

On this episode, Jamie West tells us about a scandal in 1882 with the Lexington City Physician. J.C. Harpham, as city physician, was required to attend the patients living in the smallpox hospital on the outskirts of town. It quickly came out that he was, in fact, only pretending to go visit the patients. He was replaced immediately, and he and his family left Lexington under a cloud of scandal.The research for this episode was done by Sarah Hubbard, Kentucky Room Manager.

Abdul and Katelyn break down the latest in appointments to the new administration. They also discuss the latest news about H5N1 (hint, it's still bad), and new study's findings about how the HPV vaccine decimated cervical cancer rates among young women. Then Abdul sits down with Dr. Bill Foege, the public health leader and former CDC director who led the effort to eradicate smallpox, to talk about his new book “Change is Possible: Reflections on the History of Global Health.” This show would not be possible without the generous support of our sponsors.

It's THANKSGIVING!  You might be traveling to your family's house right now for some great political debate and dinner.  We know what's up and remember that family gatherings are only made better by reminding yourself that you are an adult and allowed to drink all the alcohol you want.  Get loaded and let Uncle Man and Aunt Lady know what you really think of their dry-ass turkey! And now, for the episode. Right Coast Pizza put out an ad in an edgy music magazine.  The ad showed a pilgrim woman offering a pizza to an indigenous man and apologizing for "all the smallpox."  The ad was meant to be funny, but instead it created a social media backlash and both the magazine and the restaurant apologized.  A town meeting was held and ended in hugs, but did that make everything OK? Thanksgiving is a national holiday that was meant to unite a divided American country after a terrible and bloody civil war.  It later became the starting line in the race to Christmas, but it has always been intended as the one holiday that everyone can celebrate as an American. Except that not everyone sees Thanksgiving as something to celebrate and says "no thank you" to pizza and smallpox. The Official AI Recap: Welcome to "Apologies Accepted," where hosts Theo and Juliette take a dive into the nuances of public apologies, offering a unique lens on historical and contemporary issues. In this Thanksgiving-themed episode, they wander through a light-hearted discussion on holiday traditions and swiftly move into a thought-provoking examination of cultural sensitivity, sparked by an ill-fated Thanksgiving advertisement from a Colorado pizza restaurant. The ad featured a racially insensitive portrayal of a Thanksgiving scene, leading to public backlash and serious discussions about the perception of historical events. Theo and Juliette analyze the situation, additional context of smallpox-infected blankets as biological warfare against Native Americans, and explore the intricacies of offering a sincere apology in situations entwined with racial insensitivity.

I am honestly surprised this subject has not come up yet, because it is humorous....jk that was so lame. HUMORS! Lets talk about how "medicine" used to be and what philosophers and doctors (and even barbers?) thought about the human body. If you were sick, "hysterical," or struggling with "depraved habits," then the four humors (blood, yellow bile, black bile, and phlegm) were out of balance, you simply needed a good bloodletting.

The story behind the only human disease we have managed to completely eradicate.

Why did the bacterium cross the road? To get to the Join the Docs podcast, of course! In this infectiously funny episode, Dr. Nigel Guest, our ever-curious family practitioner, sits down with none other than Yersinia pestis, the infamous bacterium behind the bubonic plague (). With a twinkle in his eye and a stethoscope around his neck, Dr. Guest dives into a conversation that's as infectious as it is informative, exploring the historical havoc wreaked by this notorious, nasty microbe.Ever wondered what it's like to be the life of the pandemic party? Yersinia pestis, doesn't hold back. Reflecting on its "achievements" with a mix of pride and humour, Yersinia boasts about its role in various outbreaks, including the infamous Black Death. "I was the original person to go viral ," the bacterium recounts its glory days, clearly demonstrating it does not know the difference between a virus and a bacterium butspreading faster than a juicy piece of gossip in a small town, and chuckles about its current status in the microbial hall of shame—er, fame.How does one bacterium manage to stay plague-fully relevant for centuries? Yersinia pestis attributes its longevity to a combination of adaptability and a flair for the dramatic. "I've always known how to make an entrance," it says with a wink, "and let's face it, who doesn't love a good comeback story?" The conversation takes a turn for the hilarious as Yersinia shares anecdotes from its plaguey past, including a particularly memorable stint in 14th-century Europe.Is it possible to make a deadly pathogen sound charming? Dr. Nigel Guest certainly thinks so, as he navigates the interview with the skill of a seasoned talk show host. "You've certainly left your mark on history," he says, barely suppressing a chuckle. Yersinia responds with a mischievous grin, "Well, you know what they say, go big or go home!" The episode wraps up with a light-hearted discussion on modern medicine and the bacterium's current status, proving that even the most sinister microbes can have a sense of humour.This episode is a rollicking, germ-spreading ride through time, disease, and laughter, guaranteed to leave you both educated and entertained. So grab your headphones, settle in, and get ready to laugh your way through the plagues of infectious history with Dr. Nigel Guest and the ever-entertaining Yersinia pestis.—--DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed on Join the Docs are those of Dr. Nigel Guest, Jonathan Sackier and other people on our show.

Episode: 1041 A Chinese pharmacopoeia -- 2000 years ago.  Today, we ask how the Chinese managed to hide their candle under a bushel.

CDC Advisory Committee issue vaccine guidelines for flu season; Smallpox vaccine gains expanded indication; Updated Novavax COVID-19 vaccine; Over-the-counter gel for erectile dysfunction; New inserter system for placement of contraceptive intrauterine system.

For our fourth episode, show hosts Dr. Vivian Vega and Dr. Jackie Sherbuk candidly admit that they've been spending a LOT of time thinking about "not-so-forgotten infectious diseases." These are syndromes that the public may not hear about everyday, but that are still very important to the medical community and to the public at large. Although it was the first human contagion ever successfully eradicated, Smallpox as a disease still looms large, not just as a potential agent of bioterrorism, but as a cousin (orthopoxvirus) to Monkeypox (Mpox), which is currently experiencing a deadly outbreak in Africa. In fact, the American Mpox vaccine given to many at-risk U.S. individuals in the 2022 outbreak was originally created as a Smallpox vaccine. Vivian shares the fascinating tale of the last ever case of Smallpox which unexpectedly took the life of an unlikely victim. Both hosts share information on the typical presentation of Smallpox in its victims and its distinct characteristics. The eradication of Smallpox still is considered one of the great accomplishments of Medicine. Next, Vivian and Jackie discuss another feared but not forgotten infectious illness, Polio. Once endemic, this waterborne illness once affected tens of thousands of victims across the U.S., and led to the closure of parks, swimming pools, schools, and other public places. This devastating illness was vanquished by the discovery of effective, easy to administer, and inexpensive vaccines. Even so, many victims lived out their lives in an iron lung, including Paul Alexander, a courageous American man who lived out the remaining 72 years of his life in such a device, passing away earlier this year. Despite the great accomplishments in the eradication of Polio, this small RNA virus is still endemic in a handful of countries, and a case prompting the mass vaccination of children was just reported in Gaza in late August 2024. In their ID news segment, there is plenty to discuss, including more information about the Listeria outbreak involving Boar's Head meat products, the Mpox Public Health Emergency declared by the WHO in Africa, and "Triple-E" (Eastern Equine Encephalitis) and West Nile virus cases being reported in areas of the U.S. Dr. Vega would like to give a special thank you to her good friend Mr Job Meiller for his musical contributions for our podcast. Thanks also to Dr. Ana Velez, our artistic contributor, for her painting used in our episode thumbnail.

As mpox spreads to Europe and Asia — and the WHO declares a public health emergency — a leading German virologist explains what we know (and don't know) about the infectious disease.

In this episode, Jessica Stahl, MPH explores the groundbreaking work of Edward Jenner, the physician who developed the first successful smallpox vaccine. Learn about Jenner's observations, his experiments with cowpox, and how his discoveries changed public health forever. Despite facing skepticism, Jenner's work laid the foundation for modern immunology and continues to save lives today.

Forrest Maready is an author, filmmaker, and radio show host who is driven by trying to understand alternate versions of the history of religion, culture, and disease. He's written a number of books on the subject of environmental toxins and disease, which include radical revisions to the story of polio and autism. In this conversation we explore his somewhat radical perspective - that the vast majority of disease, if not all disease, is the result of industrial pollutants getting into our bodies and wreaking havoc.

Humanity isn't great at eradicating diseases. But there is one disease that humanity has managed to eradicate: smallpox.Smallpox was around for more than 3,000 years and killed at least 300 million people in the 20th century. Then, by 1980, it was gone.Rahima Banu was the last person in the world to have the deadliest form of smallpox. In 1975, Banu was a toddler growing up in a remote village in Bangladesh when she developed the telltale bumpy rash. Soon, public health workers from around the world showed up at her home to try to keep the virus from spreading. This is her story.

Jason Opal (McGill University) joins the Infectious Historians. Jason begins by discussing the massive impact of disease on the Americas between the 15th and 18th centuries, while also acknowledging the realization of this history in the 1970s. He also touches upon the concept of “virgin soil” epidemics. The second part of the episode focuses on inoculation against smallpox in Europe, the colonies and elsewhere. Jason discusses how inoculation was done and the different ways in which it was adopted. He also touches upon the relevance of measles to this story. The last part of the interview discusses teaching epidemics, as Jason shares with Merle and Lee how he teaches disease.

Today we're joined by historian Dr. Jeff Fynn-Paul to discuss his book "Not Stolen: The Truth About European Colonialism in the New World" and to answer many questions about “stolen land,” Thanksgiving, and colonialism. First, we ask the question, “Are we on stolen land?” and explain how the answer is much more complicated than we have been led to believe. We look at Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States" and how this became the standard history of America, when in reality many scholars saw him as a radical. We discuss the truth about Christopher Columbus, including the wildly inflated numbers of indigenous people he is claimed to have murdered, and the reality that historical figures are more complicated than “evil and good.” We also discuss whether Thanksgiving is oppressive and what we should make of the claim that we owe Native Americans reparations. --- Timecodes: (00:40) Intro (03:40) Smallpox blankets (05:50) 'A People's History of the United States' (08:35) Christopher Columbus (13:32) Thanksgiving (17:35) Are we on stolen land?

Smallpox is a deadly virus. At one point, it killed almost 1 in 3 people who had it. Almost 300 million of those deaths were in the 20th century alone. It was extremely painful, highly contagious and many people thought it would be impossible to wipe out—until it was. On May 8, 1980. the 33rd World Health Assembly declared the world free of smallpox. This marked the first—and only—time a human disease was eradicated globally. Epidemiologist and host of the podcast Epidemic: Eradicating Smallpox Céline Gounder has been looking into this history. Today, she shares the intense journey to eradicate smallpox in Bangladesh (spoiler alert: there are literal speedboats) and reflects on what this history tells us about the importance of healthcare that meets the needs of individuals and communities today.

Riots over inoculations. Large-scale quarantines and lockdowns. Criticisms of government action (or inaction) during disease outbreaks. The spread of mis- and disinformation about the safety of immunizations. You may be thinking, “this is a COVID episode, isn't it?”. Not quite. In this latest installment of the TPWKY book club we'll be discussing another key period in US history that had profound, long-lasting impacts on public health and access to medical care: the American Revolutionary War, when liberty from smallpox was even more important to the American colonists than independence from Great Britain. Our time travel tour guide is Dr. Andrew Wehrman, Associate Professor of History at Central Michigan University, who joins us to discuss his fascinating book The Contagion of Liberty: The Politics of Smallpox in the American Revolution, published in December 2022. As our conversation reveals, public demand for inoculation was so great that riots were held to protest unequal access, our current lack of universal healthcare systems has incredibly deep roots, and George Washington's greatest legacy may in fact be his ability to change his mind when presented with new information. With the Fourth of July just one week ago, what better time to consider this fresh perspective on the American fight for independence and freedom from disease.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
