    Are We Prepared To Fight ‘The New Polio'?

    Science Friday

    A mysterious disease called acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) has been appearing in emergency rooms for about a decade. The disease has caused otherwise healthy children to lose the ability to move their arms and legs, and some become completely paralyzed. AFM is caused by a virus that's a cousin of the polio virus, earning it the nickname "the new polio.” Journalist and physician Eli Cahan joins Host Flora Lichtman to explain what doctors have been observing, the research efforts toward developing a vaccine, and what this emerging disease reveals about our readiness for future outbreaks and pandemics.Read Cahan's article about what fighting this “new polio” might look like as our healthcare infrastructure gets dismantled.And, learning more about some non-cancerous cells may help researchers better understand how cancer progresses. When you think about how cancer spreads in the body, you're probably thinking about cancer cells—they divide uncontrollably, form into tumors, and hide from the immune system. So, it makes sense that studying the behavior of these cells is critical to our understanding of cancer. But now, researchers are looking more closely at the non-cancerous cells that co-exist within tumors and the surrounding tissues. They make up what's called the “colocateome.” Taking this more holistic approach to cancer research may help explain why some treatments don't work for all patients, and eventually may lead to more effective therapies. To better understand this expanding field, Host Ira Flatow talks with Sylvia Plevritis, a Stanford University cancer researcher. Guests:Dr. Eli Cahan is a journalist and physician based in Boston, Massachusetts.Dr. Sylvia Plevritis is a professor of biomedical data science and radiology at Stanford University.Transcript is available on sciencefriday.com.

    H5N1 Outbreak: Challenges and Opportunities with Dr. Jennifer Spencer, Texas A&M University; Beth Galbraith, Microbial Discovery Group; Dr. Enrique Schcolnik, Progressive Dairy Solutions

    This episode was recorded in Reno, Nevada, during the 2025 Western Dairy Management Conference. The panel discusses their individual experiences with outbreaks in different states. Beth talks about her group's microbial surveillance technology they used to compare rectal swabs from positive and non-positive herds. They noted elevations in specific virulent E. coli, Salmonella spp., and Clostridium perfringens in the HPAI-positive herds. Enrique noted that in California, the outbreak began in the South Valley during periods of heat stress, which exacerbated symptoms. He also felt that some dairies panicked a little and moved cows too much, which did not help. In the North Valley, the outbreak happened in cooler weather, and dairies purposefully did not move cows out of their pens and provided supportive therapy within the pen. (5:25)Dr. Schcolnik emphasized making sure i's are dotted and t's are crossed in your nutrition program to help manage through an outbreak. The immune system is an obligate glucose utilizer, so energy is key, as are protein and trace minerals. He noted they also added binders to diets, and either probiotics or double doses of yeast to keep the rumen healthy. Decreasing intake is a big symptom, so he recommends vitamin B supplementation to stimulate appetite. (12:30)The panel discusses how the Texas and California outbreaks differed from one another, including heat stress, recovery in milk production after infection, bird migration and cattle movement. Enrique notes that in California, it seemed like transmission was going downwind. Animal movement, wild birds and milk trucks were also implicated. (14:31)Several companies are investing in vaccine development, but the virus mutation is a challenge. Dr. Spencer wonders if the vaccine will end up resembling the human flu vaccine where you hope to target the general structure of the virus to reduce impact. The panel talks about natural immunity and how cows will be impacted in the lactation after they were ill. Dr. Schcolnik has observed that a percentage of cows who were dry during the outbreak aren't performing as well after freshening. He hypothesizes this could be due to mammary cell death during infection, as the virus lyses the cell as it exits the cell. (24:41)The panel discusses practical recommendations for dairy producers to prepare for or help mitigate during an outbreak. Biosecurity is key. Vaccines are hopefully on the way, but until then, minimizing cattle movements within the herd, post-dipping cows as soon as possible after the machine falls off and minimizing splashing of milk are all good practices. The panel looks forward to more research about all the different ways the virus transmits. They're also eager to learn more about treatment plans and what has worked for different dairies regarding giving fluids, altering rations, boosting the immune system, managing co-infections and impacts on calves and heifers. (29:18)Lastly, panelists share their take-home thoughts. (37:33)Scott invites the audience to Bourbon and Brainiacs at ADSA in Louisville - a bourbon tasting with all your favorite professors!

    Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Trump's Superpower a breakdown of the latest developments involving the FBI and internal debates within the GOP about whether Trump administration officials like FBI Director Patel and Deputy Director Bongino are moving fast enough on key reforms. Buck emphasizes the importance of managing expectations while supporting the broader mission of government accountability. A major segment focuses on Elon Musk’s departure from his role as a special government employee. Buck discusses Musk’s impact on reducing government waste (DOGE) and his return to leading companies like SpaceX, Tesla, and X (formerly Twitter), highlighting Musk’s role as a tech visionary and free speech advocate. The show then transitions into a deep dive on the “Big Beautiful Bill,” a major legislative effort by the Trump administration. Buck addresses conservative concerns about the lack of visible spending cuts and explains the role of rescissions in the budget process. He features commentary from OMB Director Russell Vought, who confirms that a rescissions package targeting foreign aid and public broadcasting (including NPR and PBS) is being sent to Congress. Buck critiques government funding for media entities, arguing that taxpayer dollars should not support partisan outlets. The Virus of Leftwing Insanity Another key topic is the Trump administration’s push to limit foreign student enrollment at elite U.S. universities like Harvard. Buck reacts to a federal judge’s injunction blocking the administration from revoking Harvard’s ability to host foreign students. He frames this as part of a broader judicial resistance to Trump’s agenda and criticizes the high percentage of foreign students in STEM fields at top institutions, particularly from China. Buck argues that this undermines national security and American competitiveness, calling for a rethinking of U.S. higher education policy. Throughout the hour, Buck underscores the Trump administration’s aggressive, multi-front strategy to implement its agenda despite legal and political obstacles. He praises the administration’s persistence and contrasts it with the more cautious approach of past Republican efforts. Hostage Shows Receipts A firsthand account from a former hostage, Omer Shem Tov, held by Hamas, who claims his treatment improved significantly after Donald Trump was elected—underscoring Trump’s perceived strength on foreign policy and national security. Sexton uses this testimony to reinforce the argument that America’s enemies fear Trump’s leadership and are more cautious in their actions when he is in power. Michelle Obama Cult A deep dive into the political and cultural influence of former First Lady Michelle Obama, with Buck Sexton leading the conversation while Clay Travis is on vacation. This hour is packed with sharp political commentary, media analysis, and personal insights, making it a must-listen for conservative audiences and political news followers. Buck opens the hour by revisiting his long-standing prediction that Michelle Obama would never run for president, arguing that the media-manufactured image of her as an untouchable cultural icon has begun to unravel. He critiques the media’s role in creating what he calls the “cult of Michelle Obama,” comparing it to the idolization of figures like the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Buck references Michelle Obama’s recent podcast appearance, highlighting a controversial quote where she stated that “the least important thing” a woman’s reproductive system does is produce life. He calls this statement “heinous” and “perverse,” emphasizing its potential negative impact on young women and public discourse. The discussion also touches on Michelle Obama’s past comments, including her infamous 2008 remark about being proud of America “for the first time” when Barack Obama was nominated. Buck uses this to underscore what he sees as her long-standing disdain for traditional American values.

    I worked a Saturday clinic. I know, shocking. Even more shocking: I saw something I've never actually encountered in real life until now—acute retinal necrosis. So in this episode, I walk you through what that looked like, how I figured it out, why it scared the hell out of me, and what happened next. Along the way, I also spiral into the difference between horses, zebras, and unicorns (yes, medically), why having shingles might come back to haunt your eyeballs, and what it's like to be the doctor frantically reviewing textbooks between patients. Also: I'm writing a convocation speech during a morale crisis in oncology, so if you've got extra testicle jokes, send them my way. Takeaways: Yes, I Worked a Saturday Clinic. No, I Don't Want to Talk About It. Except I do. Because a unicorn—or at least a zebra—walked through the door, and things got real fast. Vision Loss with No Pain? That's a Trap. When someone says they're going blind but they're totally comfortable, I get nervous. This case reminded me why. Your Immune System Can Turn on You. Literally. Trauma to one eye can cause your immune system to attack the other one. Still haven't seen it. Hope I never do. Retinal Necrosis Is a Fancy Way of Saying “This Is Bad.” The diagnosis sounds terrifying because it is. And it often starts with something as boring as a shingles rash. Sometimes I Leave the Room to Google Stuff. That's Normal. And if you're a doctor pretending you don't, I have questions.

    How Providers Can Join the Battle Against Misinformation: Dr. Raven Baxter, Director of Science Communication at the Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illness

    We have a special guest on today's episode whose voice will be familiar to regular listeners. Last year at this time, Dr. Raven Baxter occupied the Raise the Line host chair for a special ten-part series we produced in collaboration with the Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic Illness (CoRe) at Mount Sinai in New York City, where she serves as the Director of Science Communication. The series explored the latest understandings of post-acute infection syndromes -- such as Chronic Lyme and Long COVID -- with an array of experts from the Center and other researchers and providers. In this episode, we check-in with Dr. Baxter to get an update on the work of the Cohen Center, especially with regard to its mission to educate providers. “We're building programs so that clinicians can earn credit for learning about chronic illnesses that are infection associated, and we've also developed a 200-page provider manual. I really think that we will be able to shift the narrative that currently exists,” Dr. Baxter tells host Michael Carrese. That narrative includes lingering skepticism among providers of some infection-associated illnesses, which Dr. Baxter witnessed herself as a Long COVID patient, an experience that has added meaningful perspective to her work. Dr. Baxter is also working on her own time to advance knowledge and combat misinformation through a robust social media presence as “The Science Maven” and helps other scientists and clinicians to do the same. "If we're not there to fill in that void, other people will fill it for us and the narrative may not be consistent with the truth or facts." This is a great opportunity to learn about the art and science of communications that can reach clinicians and patients alike.Mentioned in this episode:Cohen Center for Recovery from Complex Chronic IllnessThe Science Maven If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

    Welcome back to another eye-opening episode of Ditch the Lab Coat with Dr. Mark Bonta! While we usually dig into the science behind medicine's biggest questions, on this episode, Dr. Mark is joined by the extraordinary Dr. Erwin Loh — a powerhouse at the intersection of medicine, law, healthcare leadership, and medical futurology. Dr. Loh is not only the President of the Royal Australasian College of Medical Administrators and National Director of Medical Services for Calvary Healthcare in Australia, but he's also a trusted voice on LinkedIn, where he untangles medical breakthroughs and ethical dilemmas for his global audience on the daily (sometimes 5 to 10 times a day!)—all while juggling life as an executive and dad.Together, Mark and Erwin tackle some of the most pressing—and headline-worthy—topics in medicine today. They dig into Long Covid: what it is, why it's not just "all in your head," and why the recognition of this condition is also reshaping how we think about elusive illnesses like chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. If you've wondered what's really happening with the mysterious gut microbiome, the resurgence of old viruses, or the risks of misinformation in today's media chaos, you'll find answers grounded in the latest evidence, not just the loudest opinions.But that's not all—they venture into the weird and wild wonders of scientific progress, from the looming issue of plastics in our cells to CRISPR gene editing and the promises (and perils) of AI in healthcare. Along the way, you'll hear why microplastics might be the “asbestos of our age,” how mixing vaccines can make you a lightning rod for online trolls, and why being cautiously optimistic about humanity's next steps—despite climate change, pandemics, and deepfake bioweapons—is not just reasonable, it's necessary.Whether you're a science junkie, a future-watcher, or simply want a hopeful, no-nonsense take on where medicine is headed (and how it affects your life), this episode delivers smart, ethical, and accessible conversation. Pour yourself something strong, turn your curiosity up to eleven, and get ready for a tour de force of myth-busting, insight, and inspiring optimism from two voices at the cutting edge of healthcare.Tune in for the kind of honest, evidence-based, and thought-provoking discussion you won't find anywhere else—right here on Ditch the Lab Coat!Dr Loh's Links( https://www.linkedin.com/in/erwinloh/ )( https://x.com/erwinloh )Episode HighlightsLong Covid: Real and Varied Long Covid is a legitimate, multifaceted syndrome. Most cases improve within two years, but symptoms and underlying mechanisms differ widely.Post-Viral Syndromes Aren't New Long-term illness after viral infections, like after influenza or Epstein Barr, has long existed—Covid just spotlighted this issue.Chronic Illness Recognition Grows Long Covid research is giving more credibility to conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia within the medical community.Silent Illnesses Challenge Healthcare Illnesses without definitive biomarkers, such as Long Covid, are harder to diagnose and treat, often leading to patient stigma.Microbiome's Expanding Influence Our gut, skin, and oral microbiomes profoundly affect physical and mental health, though much remains to be discovered about exactly how.Viruses and Chronic Disease Links Viruses may contribute to diseases like multiple sclerosis, cancers, and possibly Alzheimer's, highlighting new frontiers in research.Gene Editing: Transformative Power CRISPR technology lets us precisely edit human genes, promising cures for some diseases but raising major ethical and safety concerns.AI: Double-Edged Healthcare Tool AI accelerates medical discovery and innovation but can also enable harmful outcomes, including creation of bioweapons or misinformation.Plastics: Ubiquitous Unknown Threat Microplastics are everywhere, even in our cells. The true health risks are not fully understood but raise serious environmental and biological questions.Episode Timestamps4:22 – Long Covid: Global Challenge and Uncertainty9:31 – Recognizing Long Covid's Impact10:47 – Exploring Long Covid Treatments16:39 – Unknown Frontiers in Science18:22 – Understanding Microbiome and Disease Dynamics21:04 – COVID Vaccination Journey and Hybrid Immunity24:42 – LinkedIn: Fewer Trolls, Richer Conversations29:04 – Gene Therapy via Phage Infections31:58 – Genetic Correction: Hope and Ethics36:54 – AI and Humanity's Existential Challenges41:14 – Future of Microplastics and Society44:24 – AI, Cognition, and Future Governance46:28 – "Medical Futurology with Irwin Lowe48:31 – "AI in Medicine: Trust MattersDISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

    At the turn of the 21st century, it wasn't uncommon for a hop grower focusing on alpha varieties to replant a field every 25 to 50 years. While the plants in the field inevitably contracted viruses, the impact of those viruses on alpha-acid development and overall yield was manageable. In today's environment, however—with new varieties bred to be high-performance, high-aroma, well-oiled machines—the same viruses have an outsized effect, and a field's lifespan may be just a quarter of what it used to be. Yet many growers have been extending the productive lives of those fields by planting virus-free rhizomes and plugs—plants grown from cuttings taken from portions of other hops plants where viruses can't travel. In this episode, we talk with scientists and hop breeders Megan Twomey of Latitude 46 (https://latitude46.com) and Ryan Christian of Yakima Chief Ranches (https://yakimachiefranches.com) for perspective on how viruses affect hops, how virus-free plants are produced, how long plants can remain virus-free, and more—and how all of that ultimately affects what's available to brewers. Through the conversation, they touch on: different viruses that affect hops how viruses affect lupulin production in modern hop varieties viral impact in producing genetically true-to-type but phenotypically out-of-spec hops “cleaning up” hops to create virus-free plants how and now not to monitor fields for viruses field dynamics from new plantings over the first few years how viral stress impacts plants and their flavor and aroma expression yield benefits from virus-free plantings And more.

    In this episode, Patrick McKenzie (patio11) is joined by Jacob Swett of Blueprint Biosecurity to discuss far UVC technology - a specialized wavelength of UV light that kills airborne pathogens while remaining safe for humans. Jacob explains how widespread deployment of this technology in schools, hospitals, and public spaces could dramatically reduce respiratory diseases and prevent future pandemics, comparing our approach to air quality with the water sanitation revolution that eliminated diseases like typhoid. They discuss the economics of implementation (starting around $30 per student annually with costs likely decreasing), the historical reasons why this technology hasn't been widely deployed, and Blueprint Biosecurity's roadmap for increasing adoption from early users to eventual regulations similar to fire safety codes. –Full transcript available here: https://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/killing-viruses-with-light-with-jacob-swett/ –Sponsor:  MercuryThis episode is brought to you by Mercury, the fintech trusted by 200K+ companies — from first milestones to running complex systems.

    In the aftermath of most national disasters, such as 9/11, the Iraq War, and even January 6, the media typically spends years writing an endless series of think pieces, autopsies, and analyses of what went wrong and how to prevent it from ever happening again. In the case of the COVID-19 pandemic and the accompanying lockdowns, we're not seeing the same thing, and in fact most media outlets seem to want to forget the whole thing ever happened, even though it represented the most dramatic curtailing of American civil liberties in living memory. Matt Kibbe talks to David Zweig, author of “An Abundance of Caution: American Schools, the Virus, and a Story of Bad Decisions,” who argues that the media wants to hide its own culpability in pushing for lockdowns and censorship of dissenting ideas. Zweig, who considered himself broadly left-wing before the pandemic, was shocked at the persistent illogic of keeping schools closed in the face of evidence that children faced virtually no risk from the virus, and his ensuing investigation led him to question many of his preconceptions about the state of American journalism.

    You demanded, we complied. Last month in this space, I interviewed science/technology/Covid journalist David Zweig about his great new book, An Abundance of Caution: American Schools, the Virus, and a Story of Bad Decisions. It was a bracing conversation, filled with damning media/elite criticism, blue-state horrors, and F-bombs galore.Then a funny thing happened: Dozens of you wonderful paying subscribers said Mr. Welch, tear down this paywall, so we can share this with our normie friends! And so I have.A good time to mash the subscribe button!Now it's your turn, o demanding listeners (and even non-demanding freeloaders) – let's hook some new normies into your favorite podcast, and maybe persuade some of you fence-sitters about the primo content you've been missing out on. As Pope Bob from Chicago has taught us, the more people subscribe, the more special treats for everybody. Amen.Without further ado, the original text for the episode.***On May 11, 2020, as I was navigating personal collapse (“it's been a really shitty two months,” I said on an interesting-to-listen-to-now Special Dispatch #20), my two daughters were wrestling unhappily with Zoom school, and all three of us lads were in the process of buying Covid cars, I came across a Wired article that landed like a Cher-style open-handed slap across the face: “The Case for Reopening Schools: Lots of other countries have decided that it's time to take this step. Why is the US holding back?”The piece, by David Zweig, was very contrary to the U.S. news coverage at the time, chock full o' studies and data points and hyperlinks, and opened like this:Schools are reopening in countries around the world in response to a substantial body of evidence that children are largely unaffected by Covid-19 and minimally contagious when they get infected. Experts and policymakers abroad also acknowledge that school closures perpetuate a long list of known harms to children.Yet, oddly, the US is following a divergent path.Along with other real-world evidence trickling in from around the globe, Zweig's essay (plus a June 24 follow-up), was part of my four-month journey from close-the-schools alarmist to open-the-schools monster, the latter condition from which I would spend more of my journalistic energy over the ensuing few years than I care to remember.Zweig, also a New York City parent of two schoolkids at the outbreak of Covid, is determined never to forget. His book An Abundance of Caution: American Schools, the Virus, and a Story of Bad Decisions, is more than mere rage-calorie score-settling, however. At heart, he tells me in this occasionally fiery conversation, it's about how we make decisions under crisis, and how our country operates under duress.What he both discovers and explicates, in fascinating detours through Evidence-Based Medicine and the philosophy of science, is that two institutions in particular let us down: Public health elites, and the media. “This is an extraordinarily compelling story about evidence being ignored and dismissed,” he says. “They ignored empirical evidence that was right in front of their fucking face.”Trust me, you'll want to get to the last 15 minutes here, where Zweig describes how this process transformed his politics. It was “this revelatory moment,” he says: “Oh my God, I was a complete arrogant asshole.” Few others are spared.Some links:* Excerpt in The Atlantic, “The Disaster of School Closures Should Have Been Foreseen”* Excerpt in The Free Press, “How Covid Lies Destroyed Kids' Lives”* Zweig's Substack, Silent Lunch* NPR, “What Parents Can Learn From Child Care Centers That Stayed Open During Lockdowns,” June 24, 2020* The New York Times, “How 132 Epidemiologists Are Deciding When to Send Their Children to School,” June 12, 2020 This is a public episode.

    Columbia economics professor Jeffrey Sachs is now saying he is “99% sure” that the University of North Carolina (UNC) conducted extensive gain of function research beginning in 2015 and that this research led to the development of COVID-19. Sachs says he is concerned about unregulated research and the lack of global governance for handling dangerous pathogens. This systemic issue underscores the plausibility of an accidental release from a U.S. lab like UNC. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the compelling evidence supporting the conclusion that COVID came from Ralph Baric's research at UNC.

    What if mitochondria weren't just energy engines — but conscious beings guiding your survival and evolution? In this episode, Dave Asprey sits down with Zach Bush, MD, to uncover a radical new science of cellular intelligence. Together, they reveal how your mitochondria, microbiome, and genetic memory do far more than support survival—they actively shape consciousness, drive healing, and accelerate human evolution. You'll discover why chronic disease, fatigue, brain fog, and emotional trauma often trace back to lost cellular communication—and how restoring that network can unlock radical resilience, deeper energy, and true longevity. Through the lens of soil health, vibrational biology, light frequencies, and ancient microbial wisdom, Zach Bush shows why the future of biohacking demands reconnection to the deeper intelligence already alive inside you. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • How mitochondria act as conscious messengers—not just energy factories—and why that changes everything about health and aging • Why rebuilding gut microbiome intelligence strengthens immune function, brain health, and emotional resilience • How disrupted cellular communication fuels chronic inflammation, autoimmune disease, and premature aging • How emotional trauma imprints onto genetic expression and triggers mitochondrial collapse • Why viruses and bacteria serve as evolutionary partners—not enemies—and how they upgrade your biology • How “cellular safety” activates healing, regeneration, and peak human performance • How carbon cycles, soil health, and light frequencies repair DNA and extend human lifespan • Simple daily practices that rebuild cellular coherence, boost energy, and reconnect you to your innate intelligence This conversation will rewire how you think about health, disease, and human potential—giving you the tools to upgrade your biology at the deepest level. **Check out Zach's exclusive offer for The Human Upgrade listeners at https://intelligenceofnature.com/ and use code ‘DAVE10” for a discount!** SPONSORS - ARMRA | Go to https://tryarmra.com/ and use the code DAVE to get 15% off your first order. - Apollo Neuro | To get an Apollo wearable, go to https://apolloneuro.com/Dave and save 15%.
