 Today, Sea View Hospital on Staten Island is largely abandoned. But it was here, in this forgotten place, staffed by people who were shunned and segregated, where medical workers eventually found a cure for a disease that had plagued humanity for nearly 500,000 years: tuberculosis.Learn more in Maria's book, The Black Angels: The Untold Story of the Nurses Who Helped Cure Tuberculosis: https://www.amazon.com/Black-Angels-Untold-Nurses-Tuberculosis/dp/0593544927The Staten Island Museum has an exhibit about the nurses called Taking Care: The Black Angels of Sea View Hospital: https://www.statenislandmuseum.org/exhibitions/takingcare/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We stray a little from our usual content with this episode and explore the topic of Tuberculosis. Rebecca did a deep dive into all things tuberculosis after reading John Greens book "Everything is Tuberculosis" and shares what she learned. While this episode isn't forensic focused it sure is interesting and like the title says, everything really is tuberculosis. From Sanitoriums, cowboy hats, and women's footwear we cover it all and how it relates back to the infamous sickness.(And if you have any fun TB facts feel free to share)Also, happy new year!

Ever gotten a scarlet, hot face after drinking alcohol or know someone who has? Many people felt it as they celebrate the holidays with loved ones, sipping mulled wine, cocktails or champagne. That's because this condition, commonly called "Asian flush" or "Asian glow," affects an estimated half a billion people, who can't break down aldehyde toxins that build up in their bodies. But what if there's a benefit to having Asian glow? Katie Wu, a staff writer for The Atlantic, has looked into the research as to why the condition might have been a powerful tool for some of our ancestors to survive disease.

Summary In this truncated replay from the 2025 SF Derm Annual Conference, Dr. David Cotter discusses the implications of latent tuberculosis in dermatology, particularly in psoriasis treatment. He highlights the prevalence of latent TB, risk factors, and the importance of targeted screening. This session also addresses the mental health challenges faced by psoriasis patients and evaluates the safety of new treatments, emphasizing the need for careful monitoring and patient support. Takeaways - The prevalence of latent TB infection in the U.S. is 5%. - Healthcare workers have a higher risk of latent TB. - Patients on TNF inhibitors are significantly more likely to develop active TB. - Screening for latent TB should be targeted to high-risk patients. - Annual TB screening is not necessary for most psoriasis patients on IL-17 and IL-23 inhibitors. - The cost of screening for latent TB can be substantial. - Patients with psoriasis have higher rates of suicidal ideation and behavior. - Effective psoriasis treatment can improve mental health outcomes. - The event rate for suicide in clinical trials is very low. - Monitoring for mental health issues is crucial in psoriasis treatment.

Episode #452: “We still had a lot of ideals… but we had some illusions, so to speak.” François Nosten has spent decades on the Thai-Myanmar border, where war, disease, and displacement overlap endlessly. He arrived in the 1980s, a young doctor from Toulouse with Médecins Sans Frontières, drawn by a sense of purpose. What he found was devastation: malaria sweeping through camps, killing faster than bullets. “There were more of the student dying of malaria than from the fighting,” he recalls of the post 1988 movement. Nosten met British scientist Nicholas White, and their work helped pioneer artemisinin-based treatments, which transformed malaria care worldwide. “If you test and treat systematically, early, quickly, then the people don't die anymore,” he explains. For a moment, it seemed victory was possible: “One year later, malaria was gone from the Thai side.” But the disease returned, mutating and persisting through poverty and conflict. When Myanmar's 2021 coup collapsed its health system, millions were displaced. Aid stopped, clinics closed, and outbreaks flared again. “Tuberculosis is still very serious worldwide… more than HIV,” he warns. “If funding is being cut… I think that tuberculosis will explode again.” Nearby, scam compounds now imprison thousands in unsanitary, lawless towns. “They are like towns,” he says, almost as big as Mae Sot itself.” Nosten still reflects on the conviction and purpose that drove his early ambition as a young doctor. “I did my medical school to be able to travel and to do something that I think was useful,” he says. Now, decades later, he continues that same work, even as the border he serves teeters once again on the edge of collapse. “If you have a stable country… you can control malaria,” Nosten says. “But here, everything conspires against stability.”

Low resource settings require much innovation and streamlining resources to meet set goals. With healthcare becoming more commercial and profit driven, missional healthcare in low resource settings faces many challenges. Sustainability is a big question with people finance , and equipment scarce and hard to come by. Missional models of healthcare often run into hurdles of sustainability, longevity and relevance even as healthcare slowly turns into business. In this setting of multifactorial challenges and increasing compliances how can missional healthcare be relevant and sustainable? Many saints of God have committed their lives to fulfil this great commission in some of the most underserved and unreached areas of the world. With the birth of Emmanuel Hospital Association (EHA) a different model of missional healthcare emerged in India. Over the last 55 years of its existence, EHA has shown that through all the challenges, this may be one of the ways to sustain missional healthcare in areas of need. With increasing divide between the rich and poor, overwhelmed government systems, a ruthless insurance system, and high end corporate healthcare, it is still possible for missional healthcare to provide low cost, high quality, technologically advanced care to people in need while remaining sustainable. We bring lessons from India and our experience with Emmanuel Hospital Association over the last 3 decades.

The recently passed Pennsylvania state budget includes more money for tuberculosis prevention efforts in the Commonwealth. Federal data show cases of TB steadily rising nationally after nearly three decades of decline. The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center is establishing a rural residency program in an effort to bolster the rural doctor workforce. Here’s how it works: Residents start at UPMC Williamsport before transferring to either UPMC Wellsboro or UPMC Cole in Coudersport. Both locations are in Pennsylvania’s northern tier known as the Pennsylvania Wilds region. In Cumberland County, an 80-year-old woman was found dead after a house fire early Sunday morning, according to the Cumberland County Coroner's Office. State officials discovered a month's worth of mail wasn't sent by a government-contracted mail house over the past month. The backlog of mail totals 3.4 million letters, including notices of SNAP eligibility and health benefit information, as well as driver’s license and vehicle registration renewal invitations from PennDOT. Pennsylvania lawmakers could end the year with the lowest number of new laws in at least a decade. That's due to split government, heightened partisanship, and the concentration of power in the hands of legislative leaders, according to reporting by our partners at Spotlight PA. Sunday marked the beginning of Hanukkah. The city of Lancaster and the Jewish Community Alliance of Lancaster hosted a menorah lighting in Penn Square.

Why Tuberculosis is still the most deadly infectious disease.Attention, DNA detectives! We've got a rat on the loose – but don't worry, not the snitching, double-agent kind. We're talking about the whiskered, hyper-skilled, tiny agents who aren't snitching - they're sniffing out one of the world's deadliest diseases: tuberculosis (TB).Tuberculosis might sound old-timey, but it's still the globe's top infectious killer– growing tougher, more drug-resistant, and hitting hardest where access to care falls short. So for our Season 5 finale, host Dr. Kaylee Byers digs into TB's fascinating backstory, and teams up with microbiologist Dr. Jennifer Guthrie to figure out why this ancient disease still has such a tight grip, and how genomics is helping track its every move. Along the way, Dr. Zolelwa Sifumba shares her story as a multidrug-resistant TB survivor, and how her treatment journey fuels her advocacy today.Buckle up: this investigation has it all : science, politics, global inequities… and a squad of extraordinary rats.Special thanks to APOPO for sending us field recordings and interviews from their HeroRAT training program.Highlights(3:42) The history of TB(8:19) Why TB sits at the top of the global disease podium(15:30) Meet Zolelwa - a multi-drug-resistant TB survivor(30:48) The power of education–Show Notes/Resources:1.

NotiMundo Estelar - John Reimberg, Captura de Alias 'Pipo', situación carcelaria y muertes por tuberculosis by FM Mundo 98.1

After the discovery of a new gene therapy for Huntington's, a devastating brain disease, Datshiane Navanayagam talks to one of the women in the UK who worked on it and a biologist from India who's made recent discoveries that could improve treatment for TB, which still kills over a million people globally each year.Anne Rosser is Professor of Clinical Neuroscience at Cardiff University, combining both academic and clinical work specialising in patients with Huntington's Disease. Huntington's is an inherited condition caused by a faulty gene which stops the brain working properly, affecting mobility, learning, thinking and emotions. Anne also directs the Brain Repair Group in Cardiff.Paridhi Sukheja is lead biologist for Tuberculosis drug discovery at Calibr-Skaggs Institute at Scripps Research in the US – a nonprofit research institute looking at drug discovery and treatments for diseases. TB is one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases and, while widely treatable, it still kills 1.2 million people a year. Part of this is due to increasingly drug-resistant strains of the disease. Paridhi's work has been instrumental in the discovery of a potential new treatment for TB, including drug-resistant strains.Produced by Jane Thurlow(Image: (L) Paridhi Sukheja credit Nick Cusato.

Why have we lost our trust in natural medicine? In this video, we'll discuss why natural medicine is ignored and sometimes even dismissed as folklore. Is it wise to invalidate the wisdom of the past? Discover the truth about natural medicine in this video.0:00 Introduction: Natural medicine suppression0:19 United States Dispensatory 0:38 Pharmaceutical vs. natural medicine 3:08 The advancement of medicine 6:35 Natural remedies of the past The “United States Dispensatory” by Wood and Lawall may provide insight into alternative medicine censorship in the United States. The 21st edition, published in 1926, was the most authoritative and comprehensive reference for American medicine. At the time of publication, 75% of medicine consisted of various natural remedies, while only 25% consisted of synthetic compounds.Since then, there's been a gradual transition from natural remedies to synthetic drugs. When the 22nd edition of the book was published in 1943, the ratio of natural to synthetic drugs shifted to 50:50.Today, medicine is often prescribed without considering lifestyle, eating habits, sleep patterns, stress levels, or the microbiome. Symptoms of the underlying problems are treated without addressing the root cause.Discover these 20 natural remedies that have stood the test of time, along with the ailment they have historically been used to address.1. Cod liver oil—Tuberculosis, tetany, nerve pain2. Nutmeg oil—Psychotic problems3. Olive oil—Mild laxative, gallstones 4. Pine needle oil—Eliminates mucus from the lungs 5. Castor oil—Mild laxative 6. Sandalwood oil—Gonorrhea, bronchitis, bladder infections 7. Sassafras oil—Antiseptic 8. Betaine hydrochloride—Indigestion, gastric problems9. Pepsin—Digestive issues 10. Lugol's iodine—Thyroid support and protection 11. Magnesium sulfate—Sleep support, anxiety, pain killer 12. Calcium chloride—Acidifies the body 13. Liver extract—Anemia 14.

One in 4 people is infected with this silent killer disease that's deadlier than the plague. You may even have this infection! Find out about this deadly microbial threat and how to stay healthy so you don't become the next victim. 0:00 Introduction: Infectious disease deadlier than the plague 1:30 Latent infections 2:59 Tuberculosis facts 4:39 Tuberculosis and vitamin D7:38 Immune system function8:20 Sun exposure and infrared rays Many people are infected with a disease that's worse than the plague! The plague killed 200 million people, and in total, this bacterium has killed 1 billion! It's the world's deadliest infectious disease and kills more people than HIV and malaria combined. It kills around 1.3 million people each year, yet you don't hear much about it. Latent infections such as herpes, EBV, CMV, HPV, and Hepatitis B and C are able to go in and out of remission. Today, we're going to talk about the pathogen that gives you tuberculosis.Tuberculosis (TB) doesn't evade the immune system, it invades it. TB hides inside the macrophage, which is responsible for cleaning up bacteria and infections in the body. TB affects more people in the northern hemisphere away from the equator, and its incidence increases in the winter. Older people or those with type 2 diabetes, HIV, or low vitamin D are at an increased risk of an active TB infection. TB blocks the vitamin D receptor, which lowers your immune function. There was an uptick in TB outbreaks in the 80s when sun phobia was promoted. This campaign significantly reduced vitamin D levels by reducing sun exposure. Before the development of antibiotics, people with tuberculosis would go to sanatoriums for fresh air and sunlight exposure. Cod liver oil was also shown to be beneficial for people with tuberculosis infections.The immune system destroys TB with a compound called cathelicidin, a broad-spectrum antimicrobial that depends on vitamin D. Not only is the sun vital for vitamin D production, but it also exposes you to infrared light. Infrared reverses mitochondrial damage and can increase vitamin D signaling, further protecting you from a TB infection.

Tuberculosis – the world's deadliest infectious disease – could be dormant in your system for years before you realize you have it. In the U.S., it's relatively rare; provisional data shows that there were just over 10,000 cases in 2024. But in other parts of the world, especially lower-income countries, the disease is spreading much more actively. Worldwide, more than 10 million people are diagnosed with an active tuberculosis infection every year. And even though modern medicine has all the tools to cure it, over a million people around the world still die from the sickness annually.Author John Green thinks that's a problem. In his book Everything is Tuberculosis, he charts the spread of tuberculosis in the past to the lessons it has to teach us in the present.Interested in more science and medical history?

With Halloween coming up we bring you some spooky segments on zombies and vampires! Darren looks at the thought experiment about philosophical zombies also known as p-zombies. Does this idea make that much sense? Then Adam looks at cases of tuberculosis taking place in New England which, to people without a proper understanding of the germ theory of disease, were thought to be vampirism.

Welcome, my ghouls! In this episode, I explore the Gothic body, where beauty, death and desire intertwine. From vampire myths to historical obsessions with youth and purity, I uncover how the pursuit of eternal beauty has always revealed something darker about power, fear, and control. ***Listener Discretion is Strongly Advised*******************Sources & References:Kubiesa, Jane M.

On this encore of episode 454 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith interviews Maria Smilios, the author of ⁠The Black Angels: The Untold Story of the Nurses Who Helped Cure Tuberculosis⁠. In the course of their conversation, Keith and Ms Smilios discuss how numerous Black nurses fled the Jim Crow south in search of opportunity in the non-segregated north, and how many ended up working at Sea View Hospital on Staten Island, a facility focused on the treatment — and to a large extent the warehousing — of thousands of TB patients. Listeners may be shocked to learn that the American Nurses Association barred Black nurses from being members until they gave in to pressure in 1949, despite Black nurses' impressive contributions to the development of the profession. A native of New York City, Ms. Smilios holds a Masters of Arts from Boston University in Religion & Literature where she was a Henry Luce Scholar and a Presidential Scholar. She also taught Essay and Research writing in the university's writing program.  In 2007, she left Boston and moved back to New York City to teach at an all-girls high school. There she created and ran an intensive summer writing program for teens.  Maria formerly worked as a development editor in the Biomedical Sciences editing books in lung diseases, pediatric and breast cancer, neurology, and ocular diseases. It was during this time when she read a line in a book that led her to discover the story of the Black Angels.  Through writing the book, she has become in involved in advocating for affordable and accessible TB drugs in TB-heavy countries, working with and supporting organizations such as EndTB and Partners in Health. In the past, Ms. Smilios has written for The Guardian, American Nurse, Narratively, The Rumpus, Dame Magazine, and The Forward among others. The Black Angels is her first book.

Bonus Episode: Book Club with Paul Wirkus, MD, FAAP and Angelo Giardino, MD, FAAP In months with five weeks, The Virtual Curbside pauses clinical discussions for something a little different - a pediatric book club. This month, host Paul Wirkus, MD, FAAP, sits down with Angelo Giardino, MD, FAAP, to explore Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green. Together, they reflect on the global impact of tuberculosis, its toll on developing nations, and the challenges and opportunities physicians face in responding to this enduring public health crisis. No credit available for this episode. See vcurb.com for additional episodes.

In this episode Merle and Lee speak with Eric Story (Western University) about his work on tuberculosis in the Canadian army during World War I. Eric begins by discussing disability studies and tuberculosis before focusing on the Canadian military during the war. As a social historian, Story examines the impacts of tuberculosis on different groups in Canadian society. He then expands on some of the attempts to treat tuberculosis through sanatoria while also calling attention to the fact that Canadian governments took care of soldiers' present and future, investing substantial resources for this purpose. The conversation also includes a reflection on writing about tuberculosis during Covid, public health and the forgetting(?) of Covid.

There's something deeply unsettling about the idea that your dead neighbor might climb out of their grave at night and knock on your door. But for communities across Europe and America throughout history, this wasn't just a scary story – it was a genuine fear that drove them to take drastic action.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: Throughout centuries, ordinary people became vampire slayers when mysterious deaths plagued their communities, armed with stakes, shovels, and a terrifying determination to stop the undead.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Lead-In00:03:27.944 = Show Open00:05:32.271 = Part One: When Governments Hunted Vampires00:21:37.443 = Part Two: Born To Hunt The Dead00:38:00.129 = Part Three: The Science of Hunting Vampires= Show CloseSOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…Real Vampire Slayers: https://weirddarkness.com/real-vampire-slayers/=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Who's to blame for the death of Edgar Allen Poe?This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) tackles the mysterious death of famed author and poet Edgar Allen Poe. Known for his fascination with the macabre and for telling tales of mystery and psychological terror, did Poe manifest a similar mysterious fate for himself? Perhaps he was jumped by a group of ruffians put off by his alcoholic tendencies and notorious foul attitude. Or maybe it was something as simple as Tuberculosis, a common killer of the time. Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early join the conversation.

Several preventable diseases are experiencing a resurgence due to declining vaccination rates. These include:  Diphtheria: A bacterial infection that can lead to a thick membrane in the throat and respiratory failure.  Tuberculosis: A bacterial infection that can affect the lungs and other organs.  Chickenpox: A viral infection that can cause blisters and scarring.  Polio: A viral disease that can cause paralysis.  Measles: This highly contagious virus can lead to serious complications, including pneumonia and encephalitis.  Mumps: A viral infection that can cause swelling of the salivary glands and complications such as meningitis.  Rubella: A viral infection that can cause birth defects in pregnant women.  Pertussis (whooping cough): A bacterial infection that can cause severe coughing fits and respiratory problems, especially in infants.  It's important to note that these diseases can also spread among vaccinated individuals, but the vaccines significantly reduce the risk of infection and its severity.

Then we return to the first time the Pirates traded a future MVP and revisit the sad story of Cardinal catcher Bill DeLancey. Apologies for the lack of a farewell note--the mixdown was being very wonky and I couldn't get through it without it crashingThe Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine.

Expect history, politics, stats, and frequent Casey Stengel quotations. Along the way, we'll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can't get anybody out?

Why is Tuberculosis still around? We discuss how it has shaped our world.

In Episode 203, Gayle Weiswasser, co-founder of Wonderland Books, an independent bookstore in Bethesda, Maryland, returns to the podcast with Sarah for a one-year check-in on the shop's journey. From holiday-season chaos to surprising customer favorites, Gayle shares what worked, what didn't, and why she still handpicks every title on the shelves — plus the biggest lessons (and mistakes) from year one. Plus, Gayle shares some great book recommendations. This post contains affiliate links through which I make a small commission when you make a purchase (at no cost to you!). CLICK HERE for the full episode Show Notes on the blog. Highlights Gayle shares what it was like to open the bookstore right before the holiday season. How the store's first year compared to their original projections and expectations. The now-dispelled fears Gayle had before opening. Why she's glad they curated every book in their inventory themselves, and why they still do all the book buying in-house. The course correction Wonderland had to make in their romance section. The biggest mistake they made before opening their doors. Which genres and titles have become customer favorites and which don't seem to sell well. How they plan and host book events — and why those events are such a key part of the store's community success. The books that taught them exactly how (and how not) to decide how many copies to order. The surprising punch poetry has packed with customers. Whether Gayle's own reading life has bounced back after the pre-opening stress and time crunch.
