This episode of Unbiased Science is proudly sponsored by the Champions for Vaccine Education, Equity and Progress (CVEEP). Drs. Jess Steier and Sarah Scheinman discuss respiratory virus season and the importance of vaccines with guest Dr. Bertha Hidalgo, an epidemiologist. They share their personal experiences with COVID and the flu, highlighting the severity of these illnesses. The conversation covers viruses and vaccines, explaining that viruses are microscopic bundles of genetic material requiring host cells to replicate, while vaccines prime the immune system to fight off infections. The hosts explore the constant evolution of viruses and the need for updated vaccines to match circulating strains, mentioning the shift from a quadrivalent to a trivalent flu vaccine and the importance of genomic surveillance in predicting circulating strains. They give lots of practical guidance on ways to stay protected this season! Dr. Jen Brull, a family physician and president elect of the American Academy of Family Physicians joins the pod to discuss vaccines and address common questions and concerns. She emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated for both flu and COVID as soon as they are available.

But despite mountains of evidence that the vaccines save lives, many of you reading right now won’t bother getting one.

In this week's New FDA Approval's podcast episode, Dr. Emma Hitt Nichols discusses the latest FDA approvals from September 11, 2023 – September 15, 2023.  Please check back every Monday morning so that you can stay up to date.  See more details summaries and links to prescribing information at nascentmc.com/podcast Here are the highlights: • Ojjaara for Anemia in Myelofibrosis: FDA approved Ojjaara (momelotinib) for the treatment of intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis in adults with anemia. This drug is unique as it serves both newly diagnosed and previously treated patients, addressing anemia, constitutional symptoms, and splenomegaly. Approval was based on the MOMENTUM phase 3 trial results. • Resmetirom for NASH: FDA granted priority review for resmetirom, aiming to treat non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Madrigal, its manufacturer, seeks approval via the FDA's accelerated pathway. Resmetirom is evaluated in four phase 3 trials, including MAESTRO-NASH. The decision is set for March 14, 2024. • Updated COVID-19 Vaccines: FDA approved updated vaccines for the coming season targeting the omicron descendant XBB.1.5. While older vaccines targeted earlier strains, these new shots might provide protection against prevalent related strains. Pfizer, Moderna, and Novavax are manufacturing the vaccines. • Phenylephrine Lack of Efficacy: An FDA panel unanimously found phenylephrine, present in OTC decongestants like Sudafed and Dayquil, ineffective for its intended use. If the FDA agrees, over 250 products containing phenylephrine might be withdrawn from the market. This decision does not affect nasal preparations. • Patisiran for ATTR-CM: The FDA's advisory committee voted that the benefits of patisiran surpass its risks for treating cardiomyopathy induced by transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR-CM). Although the drug showed small effects compared to placebo in the Phase III APOLLO-B study, it met primary and secondary endpoints. The FDA's decision will be made on or before Oct. 8, 2023.

Episode 149: COVID Vaccines UpdateFuture Dr. Williams presented an update on COVID-19 vaccines. This update is only for immunocompetent individuals, and it was recorded on August 24, 2023. Dr. Arreaza added comments and insight.  Written by John Williams, MS4, Ross University School of Medicine. Editing by Hector Arreaza, M.D.  You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Currently, there are two types of vaccines that have been approved by the FDA:Moderna and Pfizer developed mRNA vaccines.Novavax developed a lesser-known protein subunit vaccine.As of May 6, 2023, the vaccine developed by Johnson & Johnson has expired and is not available in the U.S.Novavax: This vaccine contains pieces (proteins) of the virus that causes COVID-19, the spike protein plus an adjuvant. It works by activating the immune system against the spike protein, so it will be ready to fight the actual virus when you get infected. Regardless of vaccine type, the shots are administered in the upper arm and have been demonstrated, for most people, to be safe and effective. There have now been hundreds of million vaccines administered in the US alone and the effectiveness of the vaccine to reduce the risks of severe illness, hospitalization, and death has been well documented. The most common side effects consist of mild to moderate cases of fever, chills, headache, and tiredness that are self-resolving.What is new about COVID-19 Vaccines?The updated vaccine is known as “bivalent”. This term is important because it refers to the vaccine's ability to confer protection against both the original COVID-19 virus as well as new variants Omicron BA.4 and BA.5. Rollout of the updated vaccine began in September 2022 for those aged 12 years and older and became widespread in March 2023 with approval granted for use in children aged 6 months – 4 years. Selected individuals over age 65 or those who are immunocompromised may receive additional doses to provide comparable and safe protection.
