Podcasts about Syphilis

Syphilis cases are rising at alarming rates across the American South, especially congenital syphilis, which can be passed from pregnant mothers to their babies. Thomas Dobbs, dean of the John D. Bower School of Population Health at the University of Mississippi, traces the history of syphilis in the United States, from the dramatic declines made possible by antibiotics and public health interventions to the sharp resurgence seen over the last decade. He explains how gaps in prenatal care, rural healthcare deserts, insurance barriers, medication shortages, and the erosion of public health infrastructure have combined to fuel rising infections. particularly among pregnant women and newborns. Later, Joshua O'Neal, program director, Southeast STI/HIV Prevention Training Center, discusses how prevention training centers across the country are helping state health departments and local providers respond to the crisis. O'Neal describes the hands-on work being done to strengthen syphilis prevention and improve access to testing and treatment, like mobile testing programs, provider education, and statewide collaboration efforts. He also shares insights from the “Syphilis in the South” summit, where clinicians, public health leaders, and outreach workers came together to tackle one of the region's most urgent public health challenges.Sustaining Services and Outbreak Response for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STIs, and TB | ASTHO

Syphilis is often thought of as a disease from the historic literature, but in August last year, it was declared a Communicable Disease Incident of National Significance by Australia's Chief Medical Officer. Case numbers have grown year on year since it became a notifiable disease in 2004, peaking at around six and a half thousand in 2023. Syphilis is sometimes described as ‘the great imitator' because it can have so many different presentations. And it can hide away for years before revealing itself in one system of the body or other. In this podcast we'll go over the neurologic, ophthalmic and nephrotic symptoms that can eventuate, and also some worrying examples of congenital transmission seen today. Today's podcast will expand your library of differential diagnoses and give you confidence to go down the pathway of testing, treatment and contact tracing.

Comme nous et souvent avec nous, les maladies voyagent. Si on connait bien l'impact de la rougeole ou de la variole sur les populations autochtones lorsque Christophe Colomb découvre le continent américain au XVe siècle, on sait moins que le navigateur italien a peut-être, à l'inverse, rapporté ces maladies nouvelles avec lui en Europe. Parmi cette cargaison vénéneuse, la syphilis. Une maladie qu'on pensait disparue mais dont on reparle depuis une vingtaine d'années. La syphilis pourrait donc faire partie de ce qu'on appelle " l'échange colombien ", ce moment historique où plantes, animaux, bactéries et virus du nouveau et de l'ancien monde se sont rencontrés. C'est en tout cas une des théories sur l'apparition de la syphilis en Europe. Guillaume Linte est professeur junior au CNRS, historien de la médecine et spécialiste de la syphilis. Il est l'auteur de Hygiène navale et médecine des colonies en France (XVIe-XVIIIe siècle), paru aux éditions Les Indes Savantes. Dès l'apparition de la syphilis en Europe, elle s'accompagne d'une forte dimension morale.

Our latest episode of QuidelOrtho Science Bytes addresses a public health paradox: while early-stage syphilis cases in the U.S. are declining, congenital syphilis continues to rise despite being entirely preventable. Host Josh Casey is joined by Andrea Ott‑Vasconi, Director of Scientific Affairs and Regulatory at QuidelOrtho, to unpack CDC data and explain why missed or delayed screening during pregnancy is driving congenital infections. Together, they explore how syphilis testing works, when infections are being missed and why repeat screening is essential, especially later in pregnancy.   About Our Speaker:  Andrea Ott-Vasconi, Director of Scientific Affairs and Regulatory at QuidelOrtho Andrea holds a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering from Johns Hopkins University and an MBA from New York University. Most recently, she earned a Master of Public Health from Imperial College London. With over 20 years of experience in the medical device industry, Andrea has worked in many different roles, including product development and clinical marketing. In her current role at QuidelOrtho, she manages a team responsible for the development of educational content, scientific publications and evidence generation. Andrea is passionate about increasing awareness of the clinical value of laboratory tests and their impact on improving patient outcomes.

Nous sommes le 28 février 1881. Louis Pasteur écrit : « Et voilà que la virulence nous apparaît sous un jour nouveau qui ne laisse pas d'être inquiétant pour l'humanité, à moins que la nature, dans son évolution à travers les siècles passées, ait déjà rencontré toutes les occasions de production des maladies virulentes ou contagieuses, ce qui est fort invraisemblable. Qu'est-ce qu'un organisme microscopique inoffensif pour l'homme ou pour tel animal déterminé ? C'est un être qui ne peut pas se développer dans notre corps ou dans le corps de cet animal ; mais rien ne prouve que, si cet être microscopique venait à pénétrer dans une autre des mille et mille espèces de la création, il ne pourrait l'envahir et la rendre malade. Sa virulence, renforcée alors par des passages successifs dans les représentants de cette espèce, pourrait devenir en état d'atteindre tel ou tel animal de grande taille, l'homme ou certains animaux domestiques. Par cette méthode on peut créer des virulences et des contagions nouvelles. Je suis porté à croire que c'est ainsi qu'ont apparu, à travers les âges, la variole, la syphilis, la peste, la fièvre jaune, etc.., et que c'est également par des phénomènes de ce genre qu'apparaissent, de temps à autres, certaines grandes épidémies. » En 1881, Pasteur a déjà mis au point les vaccins contre le choléra des poules et contre la maladie du charbon. Quatre ans plus tard, ce sera la première vaccination humaine contre la rage. « Bienfaiteur de l'humanité », c'est ainsi que la savant est passé à la postérité. Il est à l'origine des plus grandes révolutions scientifiques du XIXe siècle, dans les domaines de la biologie, de la médecine, de l'agriculture ou encore de l'hygiène. Travailleur acharné, il a effectué ses travaux les plus connus alors qu'il était déjà à moitié paralysé à la suite d'un AVC. Qui était Pasteur ? Quel mari, quel père, quel collègue, quel rival dans la recherche ? Partons sur les traces d'un homme qui a changé l'humanité… Avec nous : Annick Perrot qui fut conservatrice du musée Pasteur et Maxime Schwartz qui fut directeur général de l'Institut Pasteur.

On the KMOJ Morning Show, Freddie Bell speaks with Dr. Ruth Lynfield about the importance of syphilis awareness and public health education. She explains that anyone who is sexually active can contract syphilis, but emphasizes that it can be easily detected through a simple blood test at a clinic. Dr. Lynfield highlights the serious risks of untreated syphilis, particularly during pregnancy, where it can cause significant harm to babies. She also reassures listeners that syphilis is curable with proper treatment, underscoring the importance of regular testing and early intervention.

Recorded live at the 2025 National Conference on Health Communication, Marketing, and Media (NCHCMM) in Atlanta, this episode of Public Health Speaks features Michael McNair of the New York State Department of Health's Office of Sexual Health and Epidemiology. McNair discusses his campaign, Syphilis in Pregnancy: The Role of Public Health Communication in Prevention, developed in response to rising congenital syphilis rates in New York and across the U.S.He explains how the initiative reframed messaging from “congenital syphilis” to “syphilis during pregnancy,” a plain-language shift designed to keep babies at the center of the conversation while empowering pregnant people to seek testing at key points: the first prenatal visit, the third trimester, and delivery. The campaign combined community listening sessions, provider education, and creative outreach strategies to build trust and engagement.McNair also shares practical communication insights for public health professionals, emphasizing the importance of community input, inclusive language, message testing, and clear, attainable calls to action that help people take charge of their health.Learn more about the campaign at https://www.health.ny.gov/diseases/communicable/congenital_syphilis/

Recorded January 27th 2026. A lecture by visiting research fellow Dr Seçil Yılmaz (University of Pennsylvania) organised by the School of Histories and Humanities.  Although syphilis had existed in Ottoman society since the sixteenth century, it became a significant public health concern in the latter half of the nineteenth century as a result of increased mobility, particularly among soldiers, Muslim immigrants, and seasonal workers traveling throughout the Ottoman countryside. The disease provoked fear, shame, and secrecy as Ottoman physicians devised socio-medical regulations and prescriptions that reshaped gender roles and sexual norms in the society. This lecture offers an insight into the perspectives of Ottoman physicians and psychiatrists who aspired to bring love, desire, marriage, and family under the aegis of a developing medical expertise and a vernacular form of sexology. Seçil Yılmaz is Assistant Professor of History at the University of Pennsylvania. She will be based at the Trinity Long Room Hub during her visiting research fellowship in early 2026.

Stiff nipples, the specter of nudity and proud venereal disease test results combine in this nonsensical wintry mix, and can we just say we're here for all of it, Dear Listener. So shake off those shivery duldrums and indulge in a cheery chat about all things silly. It's the laugh you need to jumpstart your week. Love it. Love you. Clothes and all. 

In this episode, Sam Ashoo, MD and T.R. Eckler, MD discuss the Januray 2026 Emergency Medicine Practice article, Emergency Department Diagnosis and Management of Patients With SyphilisSyphilis cases have surged 42% in the US, making it critical for emergency physicians to recognize and treat this "great masquerader." In this episode, hosts Sam Ashoo and Dr. T.R. Eckler break down the January 2026 Emergency Medicine Practice article on syphilis diagnosis and management. They cover the rising prevalence in high-risk populations, the four clinical stages (primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary), special presentations like neurosyphilis and congenital syphilis, and practical diagnostic approaches. With a national penicillin shortage, they discuss alternative treatment options including doxycycline and post-exposure prophylaxis. The conversation also addresses the dark history of the Tuskegee Study and its lasting impact on medical ethics. Whether you're seeing more cases in your ED or want to sharpen your diagnostic skills, this episode provides actionable insights for frontline providers.Timestamps[0:00] Opening/Introduction[0:11] Host Welcome & Resources[0:50] Episode Introduction[1:30] Epidemiology & Rising Cases[4:30] Risk Factors & Screening[6:30] Pathophysiology & Transmission[9:30] Primary Syphilis[12:30] Secondary Syphilis[15:30] Tertiary & Latent Syphilis[18:30] Neurosyphilis[22:30] Congenital Syphilis[25:30] Ocular & Otic Syphilis[28:30] Differential Diagnosis & Pre-hospital Care[31:30] History & Physical Examination[34:30] Diagnostic Testing Overview[38:30] Testing Details & Titers[41:30] Treatment: Penicillin & Alternatives[43:30] ClosingSubscribers, take the CME test here.Emergency Medicine Residents, get your free subscription by writing resident@ebmedicine.net

New CDC surveillance data show encouraging declines in several sexually transmitted infections—but a troubling increase in syphilis among newborns. In this episode, the Director of the Division of STD Prevention at the National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention, Dr. Bradley Stoner breaks down the key takeaways from the 2024 provisional STI surveillance report, including declines in chlamydia, gonorrhea, and primary and secondary syphilis, alongside the continued rise in congenital syphilis. The conversation explores what's driving progress, the prevention strategies showing impact, and where urgent action is still needed. Dr. Stoner also discusses how states and local health departments can use provisional data to guide interventions, expand screening and treatment, and prepare for improved data access through CDC's new One CDC Data Platform.Supporting Pharmacies as Contraception Access Hubs | ASTHOOrganizational Strategic Planning Guide | ASTHO

The world is a-changing. Maximilian I may still dream of the medieval universal empire where he will lead Christendom in an epic crusade to expel the Turks from the European mainland, even reconquering Jerusalem. Meanwhile his main adversary, king Charles VIII of France unleashed the fury of war in Italy, kicking off a struggle that would last for 50 years and replaced the medieval world of popes and emperors with a system based on the balance of powers.In the near term, this expedition to conquer the kingdom of Naples triggered not only the outbreak of Syphilis, but also the double marriage between Habsburg and Spain that Maximilian did not want, but ended up being the second of the three marriages that created an empire.Lots to get through, none of it boring..The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

Send us a textIn this episode of NeoNews, the team returns from a brief hiatus with a refreshed format and a packed review of neonatal stories dominating recent headlines. Eli, Ben, and Daphna open with updates on RSV prevention, highlighting new MMWR data showing significant gaps in nirsevimab and maternal vaccine uptake—despite strong evidence and renewed availability. They discuss how supply chain issues, insurance delays, and vaccine confusion continue to limit access, and they emphasize the unique role neonatologists can play in counseling families early and often. The hosts also review concerning national trends in congenital syphilis, noting that many affected infants had parents who received prenatal care but were never tested—an avoidable systems failure with major downstream costs. Additional segments cover the severity of last year's influenza season, the emergence of new RSV monoclonal antibodies, and the rising use of polygenic risk scoring in IVF. The team reflects on the ethical tension between innovation and eugenics concerns, and how neonatal providers can prepare for these conversations. Finally, the deep dive explores Sherri Fink's powerful reporting on trisomy 18, variability in care across institutions, and the growing emphasis on transparent, value-driven shared decision-making with families.

Was the Italian Renaissance only for men? While history remembers the names of Michelangelo, Leonardo, and the Medici, one woman's story of power, art, and ambition rivals them all. In this episode, we uncover the life of Isabella d'Este, the First Lady of the Renaissance, with acclaimed historical novelist Sarah Dunant. Discover the incredible true story of the woman who ran a state, built a world-class art collection, and navigated a dangerous marriage—all while a secret disease swept through Europe, changing her destiny forever.Join us as celebrated author Sarah Dunant, a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, discusses her groundbreaking new novel, The Marchesa. Dunant shares how a simple question from her teenage daughter—"Where were the women?"—sparked a two-decade journey to uncover the forgotten stories of Renaissance women. This episode reveals the fascinating life of Isabella d'Este, a political mastermind and fashion icon who was brilliantly educated in humanist culture. From an early age, she was a force to be reckoned with, known for her sharp intellect and unshakeable confidence. Dunant explains how Isabella became a pioneer of female art patronage, commissioning works from the greatest artists of her time and building a collection that was the envy of popes and kings.We dive deep into the thousands of letters preserved in the Mantua archive, which provide an unprecedented look into Isabella's mind. These documents reveal her cunning diplomacy as she ran the city-state of Mantua while her husband was away at war. We also explore her intense rivalry with her notorious sister-in-law, Lucretia Borgia. In a particularly captivating part of the interview, Dunant sheds light on a shocking and little-known aspect of the era: the history of syphilis in Italy. She details how the "French pox" arrived from the New World and secretly ravaged the European aristocracy, revealing a stunning discovery from her research that suggests Isabella knew her husband had the disease and took control of her own fate. Finally, hear about the author's own journey to publish Sarah Dunant The Marchesa, a beautifully illustrated hybrid of history and fiction that she was so passionate about, she decided to publish it herself.About Our Guest:Sarah Dunant is an award-winning British novelist, journalist, and critic. She is a recognized expert on the Italian Renaissance and has written six novels set in the period, all focused on bringing the vibrant and often hidden lives of women to the forefront. Her latest book, The Marchesa, is a culmination of years of deep archival research into the life of the extraordinary Isabella d'Este.Timestamps:(01:12) "Where Were the Women?": Sarah Dunant's Journey to the Renaissance(05:32) Introducing Isabella d'Este: The First Woman of the World(10:08) Uncovering History: Inside the Gonzaga Archive in Mantua(14:18) The First Female Art Patron: Building Isabella's Legendary Collection(20:23) A Rivalry of Style and Power: Isabella d'Este and Lucretia Borgia(24:52) The Past Talks Back: How Fiction Can Challenge Our View of History(31:36) The Secret Disease That Forged a Marriage: The History of Syphilis in the Renaissance(38:15) The Author's Own Battle: The Journey to Self-Publishing The Marchesa(41:21) What's Next for Sarah Dunant?Learn More & Episode Resources:Get your copy of The Marchesa by Sarah DunantLearn more about Sarah Dunant's work

Syphilis infections have increased in the US and worldwide over the past decade. Left untreated, syphilis can cause blindness, deafness, psychosis, dementia, and peripheral nerve damage, and can cause congenital syphilis. Author Franco Chevalier, MD, MPH, from the San Francisco Department of Public Health discusses this and more with JAMA Deputy Editor Preeti Malani, MD, MSJ. Related Content: Syphilis ----------------------------------- JAMA Editors' Summary

In 1932, the U.S. Public Health Service launched what they claimed was a study on “bad blood” in rural Alabama. In reality, it was a 40-year-long lie: hundreds of Black men with syphilis were deliberately left untreated, even after penicillin became the standard cure. Known today as the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment, this shocking violation of trust exposed deep systemic racism and reshaped the way medical research is conducted.

As part of our shameful history series, today we dive into the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiments of the 1930s, 40s, 50s, 60s and into the 70s.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From 1932 to 1972, six hundred poor, black sharecroppers in Alabama were told they were being treated for "bad blood," when in reality, the US government was conducting an experiment on how untreated syphilis affected their bodies, a study that was supposed to keep going until every participant was dead. A study that would've kept going, had a whistleblower not exposed it. Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?
