Send us Fan MailOnce upon a time, people blamed tuberculosis on vampires.Seriously.In this Public Health Is Weird episode, we head to 1892 Rhode Island, where the deaths of several members of one family led to an exhumation, a suspected vampire, and a truly horrifying attempt at a cure. The real culprit was tuberculosis. We explore the strange connection between TB and vampire folklore, the discovery and treatment of tuberculosis, a messy Nobel Prize controversy, and a bigger question: Why do humans reach for supernatural explanations when something frightening happens that we can't explain? Vampires, tuberculosis, human psychology, and somehow, Dr. Eeks' great grandfather and groundhog grease.Welcome to Public Health Is Weird. Be sure to check out the other Public Health is Weird episodes too! Work with Eeks?

Tuberculosis kills more than a million people every year. It's the world's leading cause of death from a single infectious agent. This is despite the fact that we've had a cure for TB since the 1940s and a vaccine that's over 100 years old. So why is TB still causing so many people to die? That's what CrowdScience listener John in Tanzania wants to know, and presenter Marnie Chesterton is on the case. Over in Paris, she's joined by Dr Claas Kirchhelle, historian of science, medicine and technology at French National Institute of Health and Medical Research (INSERM) to look into the history and efficacy of the vaccine, known as BCG. As Dr Maximiliano Gutierrez, Associate Research Director at the Francis Crick Institute adds, the BCG is both effective and ineffective, protecting children well against severe TB, but offering inconsistent and often poor protection in adults. He also explains that antibiotics are a trickier treatment than we might expect. Over in Kenya's Kibera slums, Janet tells us her about her experience of the drugs first hand. Dr Dany Beste, Senior Lecturer In Microbial Metabolism, University of Surrey, has been described as a dietician of mycobacterium tuberculosis. She explains the limitations of our knowledge of this bacterium, and why it is proving such a tricky customer. And since a better vaccine is the main hope for reducing the TB burden, Professor Angelique Luabeya Kany Kany, Chief Research Officer at University of Cape Town, shares her hopes for the first new alternative vaccine in 100 years: m72. Large phase 3 clinical trials are currently underway, and, if successful, could prevent millions of cases, and deaths a year.

In this episode, Patrick McKenzie (patio11) is joined by Misha Gurevich, CEO of Aerolamp, and Vivian Belenky, its chief scientist and a researcher at Columbia, to discuss why UVC, a wavelength of light that inactivates airborne pathogens but is absorbed harmlessly by the dead outer layer of human skin, remains almost entirely undeployed. They explain the physics and safety case for 222 nanometers, the economics of installation, and preliminary South African trial results showing 90% suppression of tuberculosis transmission in hospital wards. –Full transcript available here: https://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/the-economics-of-putting-germicidal-light-in-every-room/ –Presenting Sponsors: Mercury & MongoDBComplex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

After a near-death experience, Kate Clinch became drawn into the astonishing, Gothic story of a young Australian woman named Eileen O'Connor, who is buried under the floorboards of a home in Coogee.Kate was working as a GP in country South Australia when an ectopic pregnancy nearly killed her.She had a vivid near death experience, which prompted her to start interrogating inexplicable and miraculous events.Kate hadn't grown up Catholic, or even religious, but years after her near death experience, she was drawn into the story of a young Australian saint-in-waiting named Eileen O'Connor.Eileen lived in Sydney at the turn of the 20th century.She lived with profound physical disabilities, standing at only 115cm tall, but somehow she managed to head up a group of nurses who delivered free medical care to people living in the slums of Sydney.Eileen's story is an astounding collection of ups and downs - suffering, tragedy, a scandalous relationship with a young priest, threats of excommunication, a wartime sea voyage to Rome and a meeting with the Pope.And she is currently being scrutinised by the Vatican for possible canonisation, which would make Eileen Australia's second saint.Every Inch a Saint is published by Monkfish.Our Lady's Nurses for the Poor has been caring for the sick and disadvantaged in their own homes for more than 100 years. You can read more about the religious order and the lay nurses who work with the nuns - colloquially known as the Brown Nurses - online.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris.

This is the second stop on our five-part audio guide to Asheville, North Carolina, and it reaches back a lot further than you might expect. In this episode of Unpacked by Afar, host Aislyn Greene unpacks the long, strange story of Asheville wellness, and why doctors have been sending patients to these mountains for more than a century and a half. To understand where Asheville wellness began, Aislyn talks with David Freedman, an infectious disease physician and travel medicine expert who retired to the city. He explains the era of climatotherapy, when clean mountain air and a just-right altitude were prescribed for the respiratory illnesses of the Industrial Revolution, and for the deadliest disease of the 19th century, tuberculosis. It's a history written into the architecture itself, from buildings angled toward the prevailing wind to the once-ubiquitous sleeping porch, and even into the phrase “health resort,” which Asheville helped invent. Then Aislyn brings the story to the present, where Asheville wellness has grown into one of the most diverse scenes in the country. She heads into the Asheville Salt Cave and Spa, surrounded by 30 tons of ancient Himalayan salt, and hears from owner Jodie Appel about the surprising family story that started it all. She also sits in on a sound bath with sound therapist Kristin Hillegas, and gathers the full, wonderfully weird range of what you can try here, from hydrotherapy and aura photography to a practitioner known as the Breath Nurse. It all adds up to a rich piece of cultural travel and a portrait of a place locals call the Happy City. Whatever draws you to these mountains, it's a reminder that the best travel experiences often start with simply feeling better, and that knowing where to go can be its own kind of medicine. Unpacked by Afar is a travel podcast that unpacks one destination at a time. This Asheville audio guide continues across three more episodes, so look for the rest of the series waiting in the feed.

 Tuberculosis is a difficult, infectious respiratory disease, and patients often have a low quality of life. Organizations like the ATS and the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (The Union) are looking to combat health inequities and support patient communities. However, due to recent funding cuts, future research on tuberculosis and other respiratory diseases are in jeopardy. Host Patti Tripathi and Executive Director of The Union Cassandra Kelly-Cirino, PhD, discuss the effect of these funding cuts and what it will take to continue supporting research and patients alike. 

Sibongile Zulu is among the 7.7 million south Africans who are HIV positive.西邦吉莱·祖鲁是770万感染艾滋病毒的南非人中的一员。She takes a cocktail of antiretroviral drugs to suppress the virus.她服用了一组抗逆转录病毒药物来抑制病毒。When south Africa imposed a coronavirus lockdown in March, Zulu lost her job.当南非在3月份实施新冠疫情封锁措施时，祖鲁失去了工作。Weeks later her local clinic began to run short of some medication.几周后，当地的诊所开始出现药物短缺。I think for two months, I was using only one that I was supposed to use two. And if I don't use both of them, it's a big risk and I can get sick.我想有两个月的时间，我只服用了一种药物，而我应该服用两种。如果我不同时服用两种药物，风险很大，我可能会生病。Across the world doctors say the coronavirus pandemic and the subsequent lockdowns will likely hamper the fight against other killer diseases like tuberculosis or TB, malaria and HIV.世界各地的医生表示，新冠疫情大流行以及随后实施的封锁措施可能会阻碍对抗结核病、疟疾和艾滋病等其他致命疾病的斗争。Epidemiologist Dr Salim S. Abdool Karim advises the south African government on the coronavirus and has led research into other infectious diseases in Africa.流行病学家萨利姆·阿卜杜尔·卡里姆博士就新冠疫情为南非政府提供建议，并领导了非洲其他传染病的研究。People are scared to go to healthcare services. We have seen a decline in the number of tests for tuberculosis.人们害怕去医疗服务机构。我们看到结核病检测数量有所下降。We've seen a decline in the number of patients coming in to get their medications.我们已经看到前来取药的患者数量有所下降。So that's of deep concern because it could undo the years of work that it has taken us to get to this point.这让人深感担忧，因为这可能会让我们多年来为达到目前这一阶段所付出的努力付诸东流。TB cases and deaths have fallen year on year in south Africa and many other countries.南非和许多其他国家的结核病病例和死亡人数同比下降。But it remains one of the world's biggest killers with an estimated 1.5 million deaths last year.但它仍是世界上最致命的疾病之一，去年估计有150万人因此丧生。We know there's 50% decrease in TB testing in south Africa at the moment.我们知道，目前南非的结核病检测量下降了50%。So people are not able to go to the clinic or go to hospitals and so on.人们无法前往诊所或医院等等。And they're not being diagnosed with TB, and this means that they can then transmit TB further to other people. So it's just going to sort of snowball.他们没有被诊断出患有结核病，这意味着他们随后可能会将结核病进一步传染给其他人。情况就会像滚雪球一样越来越糟。Malaria deaths in Africa could double in 2020 warn researchers from Imperial College London, unless disrupted services such as mosquito net distribution and malaria treatments are maintained.伦敦帝国理工学院的研究人员警告称，除非蚊帐分发和疟疾治疗等中断的服务得以维持，否则2020年非洲的疟疾死亡人数可能会翻倍。Despite thedireforecasts, Karim says there is opportunity.尽管预测情况严峻，但卡里姆表示仍存在机遇。The opportunity to look at integration, integration between covid, HIV, TB and other conditions.这个机遇在于审视整合，即新冠、艾滋病、结核病和其他疾病之间的整合。So that when we are investing for our coronavirus vigilance, we are benefiting not just the covid epidemic, but the epidemics of HIV and TB as well.当我们为应对新冠病毒保持警惕而投入资源时，受益的不仅是新冠疫情防控，还有艾滋病和结核病的防控。The global community must look at the bigger picture, says McQuaid.麦奎德说，国际社会必须着眼大局。We start to lose gains that we've been making in recent years, hard-fought gains that we've made.我们开始失去近年来取得的成果，那些我们经过艰苦努力才取得的成果。And we could be pushed back five, ten, twenty years even.我们的成果甚至会倒退五年、十年、二十年。Huge resources have been dedicated to the fight against the coronavirus.大量资源被用于抗击冠状病毒。Doctors say it's vital that other deadly diseases are not neglected.医生表示，至关重要的是不能忽视其他致命疾病。

El presidente Donald Trump contradice la directriz de ICE y pide que se mantengan las detenciones de vehículos en operativos migratorios, pese a la polémica por la muerte de dos inmigrantes en la última semana. El gobernador Greg Abbott ordena a los Texas Rangers investigar el tiroteo en el que falleció el inmigrante mexicano Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. México escala los reclamos por la muerte de sus connacionales relacionadas con operativos y centros de detención de ICE y presenta denuncias penales en los Estados Unidos. En el congreso avanza un proyecto de ley que busca eliminar los cambios de horarios en los Estados Unidos. De ser promulgada quedaría permanente el horario de verano. ¿Cuáles serían los beneficios?

CHP has arrested a man who they say shot a woman while she was driving on the freeway with a child in the backseat. San Diego County officials are warning about a potential exposure to multidrug-resistant Tuberculosis for anyone at Cal Sate San Marcos or anyone who might have taken the North County Transit District sprinter train. The San Diego Port is looking for feedback on a proposal to bring Topgolf to East Harbor Island.     What You Need To Know To Start Your Saturday. 

History has a way of creeping back when we assume the battle is already won. In this our 85th episode, we confront an immediate, present-day vulnerability to TB that most professionals believe belongs safely in the textbooks of the past. Current risk frameworks are structurally blind to slow-moving, invisible threats that erode infrastructure from the inside out. TB has been quietly adapting beneath the surface of modern economic and social systems while the world looks the other way. Tune in to find out why this emerging risk requires a radical, immediate shift in perspective.

Crewing the Expedition and Erroneous Science. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. The mission involved two ships: the Resolution and the Discovery. Key officers included Charles Clerke, who commanded the Discovery while suffering from tuberculosis, and James King, a talented astronomer whom Cook mentored. Also on board were John Gore, an American-born veteran, and William Bligh, a brilliant but "insufferable" navigator who learned his craft directly from Cook. The voyage was partly motivated by the "open sea" theory of Daines Barrington, which falsely suggested that seawater could not freeze and that a path to the Northwest Passage would be ice-free if sailors stayed away from land. This wrongheaded science fueled the British Empire's obsession with finding a shorter route to Asia. 21784

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 6-04-2026: A caller with previously normal platelets now bouncing between 40-60 asks whether to accept her doctor's recommendation of high-dose dexamethasone. Dr. Dawn suggests checking homocysteine and methylmalonic acid for hidden B12 issues, getting an ultrasound to rule out splenic sequestration, and confirming actual autoimmune antibody testing before committing to steroids. Researchers invented a fake disease called "Bixonimania" (periorbital hyperpigmentation supposedly caused by blue light) with obvious tells including a fictional Asteria Horizon University and Starfleet Academy acknowledgment. By 2026, AI chatbots were routinely describing it as real, and three Indian researchers even cited the fake preprint in a peer-reviewed paper that was subsequently retracted. A 75-year-old caller asks about intermittent fasting patterns. Dr. Dawn advises against fasting longer than 24 hours after age 75 due to muscle catabolism, and recommends time-restricted eating instead—starting with protein at 10am to prevent muscle breakdown. For rebuilding lost muscle she prescribes resistance bands, 30g protein including 5g branched-chain amino acids before exercise, and total daily protein matching one's age in grams. A male caller with a T-score of -4.0 on DEXA (diagnostic of severe osteoporosis) asks about pulsed electromagnetic frequency therapy for his hip. Dr. Dawn explains bone's piezoelectric properties mean that compression and electrical stimulation both activate osteoblasts. She recommends checking parathyroid hormone (tumors cause silent calcium loss), notes that vitamin D above 10,000 IU daily can paradoxically activate osteoclasts and worsen osteoporosis. She discusses how decades of proton pump inhibitor use cause achlorhydria leading to both B12 deficiency (elevated MCV) and calcium malabsorption. The same caller asks whether AI has genuine empathy after seeing Claude express regret about military use, and Dr. Dawn explains AI is a statistical mirror — the illusion of empathy from frequency-based word selection trained on human text, not genuine feeling. Daraxonrasib, an oral monoclonal drug from Revolution Medicines, doubled survival time in metastatic pancreatic cancer trials from 7 to 13 months, prompting FDA expanded access. Dr. Dawn explains KRAS—the long-elusive target with no binding pockets—was finally tackled using Gregory Verdine's "molecular glue" approach, where small molecules first attach to bystander proteins to create complexes capable of binding KRAS. A high school in San Francisco has seen seven active and 241 latent TB cases since November 2025, with 18% of the school community infected. Dr. Dawn notes California reached a 12-year high of 2,150 TB cases in 2025, and connects the unusually high latent-infection rate to recent Medi-Cal cuts and immigration-related healthcare avoidance. She argues healthcare access for vulnerable populations is a practical disease-prevention measure.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Bernice: Hi Doc, First, thank you so much for your podcast. I absolutely love it! My favorite day is Friday. I always enjoy hearing about the research and new products. I learned about psyllium husk on your podcast and I have been taking it every day. I wanted to ask you about Zen Basil. Is this something that we should also consider taking as well as a fiber source? It looks like there are 15 grams per serving! Thanks so much!! Bernice       Genel: Hi Dr. Cabral, thank you for your work. About 5 years ago I had tuberculosis and long-term treatment. Since then I've had ongoing issues: persistent joint pain and unstable weight. I struggle to gain weight and often lose it without clear reason. Recent labs showed elevated rheumatoid factor (147.6 IU/mL), high ESR (38), and slightly low hemoglobin, suggesting inflammation or rheumatoid arthritis. I currently take DNS, Omega-3, and D3. What additional supplements could help lower inflammation and support recovery? I live outside the US and can order supplements, but EquiLife support said lab results cannot be processed from my country. I don't want to make the detox cause I don't want to lose the little weight I have. What protocol can I follow? Thank you again for your guidance.      Katherine: Hi Doc. Thank you for all you do in helping all of us. I was looking into get a vibration plate and was wondering which one you would recommend. To date, I didn't find one on your resource page or previous podcast. Would you consider recommending one in the future? Thank you!      Eli: Hi, Dr. Cabral, I feel like I can't get ahold of my appetite, both behaviorally and physiologically. I also deal with a huge amount of food noise. I notice when I eat a large breakfast, say from a restaurant, I can go basically the entire day without eating. Is it OK to flip meals - dinner for breakfast, regular lunch, and breakfast for dinner? Are there any studies or positive impacts of doing so? Why don't more health professionals talk about this type of practice? It seems as if it would be good for people. I'm desperate to try anything for my appetite and food noise problem. Thank you so much for answering my question!       Sheena: Hi Dr. C! hope you and your team are well. I'm a 46 year old female experiencing peri-menopause symptoms. My endocrinologist prescribed me birth control pills to help alleviate some of the symptoms which helped for about 8 mths only but now I'm considering HRT. I purchased the Big 5 and want to know if I need to come off BCP for accurate results? If so, how long should I be off before testing? If not, will I need to notify labs in advance? If I'm on HRT, will my results be accurate for Stress Mood test? And my last question, when doing the Detox, am I allowed to take herbal tinctures?

In September 2025, the U.S. Department of State, Gilead Sciences, and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria announced a novel partnership to procure and deliver lenacapavir—a groundbreaking twice-yearly injectable pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention—to up to two million people over next three years.  On Tuesday, April 14, the leadership of these three entities convened to discuss the partnership now that doses have begun to arrive in country and have been delivered. Katherine E. Bliss, Director of Immunizations and Health Systems Resilience and Senior Fellow with the CSIS Global Health Policy Center moderated the conversation with Jeremy P. Lewin, Senior Official for the Office of the Under Secretary for Foreign Assistance, Humanitarian Affairs, and Religious Freedom at the U.S. Department of State; Daniel O'Day, Chairman and CEO of Gilead Sciences; and Peter Sands, Executive Director of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.  Together they examined how this deal fits into a renewed U.S. strategy for foreign assistance focused on big bets and advancing American innovations around the world, what challenges lie on the horizon as implementation unfolds, and what additional innovations may accelerate scaling this effort.

Fresno County health officials confirmed a tuberculosis exposure at Justin Garza High School, prompting contact tracing and notifications to potentially affected students and staff. Officials say the risk to the general public is low, but those identified as close contacts are being tested as a precaution. Avenal voters are deciding whether to recall multiple city council members, accusing leaders of mismanagement and public safety failures. The recall effort follows months of turmoil over fire services, city finances, and leadership decisions, setting up a high‑stakes local election that could reshape city government.

If you've been listening to the Purr Podcast for a while, you already know that Dr. Susan has a special place in her heart for anything that crawls, multiplies, and causes trouble at the cellular level. So when the opportunity came to welcome back the one and only Dr. Jane Sykes for a second conversation, it's safe to say the excitement level in the room was measurable. Dr. Sykes is a Professor of Small Animal Internal Medicine at UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine and one of the most respected voices in veterinary infectious disease anywhere in the world. She has spent her career untangling the complex, the sneaky, and the sometimes downright dramatic world of infections in our companion animals, and lucky for us, she's as generous with her knowledge as she is sharp with her insights. Your hosts, Dr. Susan and Dr. Jolle Kirpensteijn, are back together to guide the conversation, Dr. Susan barely containing her enthusiasm, and Dr. Jolle making sure the rest of us keep up. Whether you're a cat owner wondering what's lurking in your backyard or a veterinary professional looking to sharpen your clinical thinking, this episode has something for you. This is the second time Dr. Sykes has graced the Purr Podcast, and honestly? It still doesn't feel like enough.Thanks for tuning in to the Purr Podcast with Dr. Susan and Dr. Jolle!If you enjoyed today's episode, don't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave us a review—it really helps other cat lovers and vet nerds find the show.

If you've ever played a simple game with friends and thought, “Hey, this should be easy,” — congratulations, you've never met this group.On this episode of The Rizzuto Show, your favorite funny podcast kicks off with a completely normal discussion about National Cocktail Day, cheesesteaks, and chocolate-covered raisins… before immediately taking a hard left turn into tuberculosis caves. Because obviously that's where morning radio should go.Then comes Mind Meld — a game that sounds simple in theory: say the same word as your partner. That's it. That's the whole game. And yet somehow, this funny podcast manages to turn it into a psychological thriller where nobody trusts anyone and every answer feels like a personal attack.You'll hear:One of the cleanest wins ever (“doctor hoodie” becoming “lab coat” like actual geniuses)One of the most painful failures in show history (we're looking at you, “tissue” instead of “clown”)A heated debate about whether “coffee table” counts as one word (spoiler: it derails everything)Multiple rounds where they are SO CLOSE… and still miss itAnd a final cowboy-themed comeback that somehow restores faith in humanity (briefly)There's yelling, second-guessing, accidental brilliance, and moments where you will absolutely scream at your speakers because the answer is so obvious it hurts.This is what makes The Rizzuto Show the funny podcast you keep coming back to — not because they get it right, but because watching them get it wrong is way more entertaining.If you like your comedy messy, your logic questionable, and your mornings filled with chaos, you're in the right place.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This episode kicks off exactly how you'd expect from a funny podcast that thrives on oversharing — with Riz prepping for his wife's colonoscopy like it's a full-blown live event. We're talking guest room exile, filming post-anesthesia nonsense, and somehow comparing medical procedures to oil changes. Because of course we are.From there, the show spirals into a nostalgia-fueled rabbit hole of “things from the past that would absolutely break us today” — including:Waiting in line for a payphoneDial-up internet destroying your household peacePhysically going to the bank like some kind of pilgrimDownloading a single song for half a dayAnd the true trauma: no save points in old video gamesBasically, if you survived the ‘90s, congrats — you earned today's convenience.Clownvis Presley (yes, that's real, no we won't explain it again) joins the studio and instantly brings the weird energy up to acceptable Rizz Show levels. There's talk of him standing motionless in parking lots like a haunted Elvis statue (which… honestly tracks), plus hype for his upcoming Oddballs & Outlaws Tour, hitting St. Louis at Red Flag.Meanwhile, Rafe is fully spiraling over a stacked Willie Nelson show lineup — and plotting ways to sneak onto Willie's tour bus like it's a low-budget heist movie.The crew continues their 90s movie bracket, and it gets personal:Dumb and Dumber vs Office Space (rude matchup)Tommy Boy vs Austin Powers (illegal to choose)Something About Mary vs Mrs. Doubtfire (childhood vs comedy chaos)Big Lebowski vs Groundhog Day (existential crisis edition)Everyone argues like their childhood depends on it — because it kinda does.The show's signature game returns, and it's a rollercoaster:One round goes completely off the rails (shocking no one)Another round magically connects “doctor” and “hoodie” into “lab coat” like some kind of psychic miracleMultiple moments where the audience is definitely yelling at their radiosIt's the perfect mix of “we got this” and “we absolutely do not got this.”Riz debuts a new game pulling tiny sounds from songs, forcing everyone to guess the track and artist — which turns into:ConfusionAccidental brillianceAnd at least one moment where someone somehow nails it and everyone else gets madStandard operating procedure.Because this is a daily comedy show, we also acknowledge:National Cocktail Day

Koch's announcement that he had identified the bacterium responsible for tuberculosis strengthened the emerging “germ theory” of disease, which argued that many illnesses were caused by microorganisms rather than by environmental or hereditary factors ...
