Podcasts about World Health Organization

It always seemed like a pretty good trick to skate through both World Wars without getting invaded or bombed to smithereens, but when your country houses all of the banks that are financing both sides, the rule is that the money stops flowing if the bombs start falling. Switzerland is home to some of the most dangerous organizations on the planet, and if the World Health Organization gets its way and rules the world, the new capital will probably be the United Nations Office of Geneva. From financing Hitler to housing Klaus Schwab, the mountain fortress has remained protected from the outside world while quietly playing a large role in the formation of world government.

Today, Dr. Kara Fitzgerald joins me to talk about DNA Methylation.  Life expectancy in the United States is on the decline. We are living for a shorter time and according to the World Health Organization, even though we have a life expectancy of 79.3 years, the average age for developing a serious illness is 63.1 years old. That means that we spend the last 16.2 years of our life ill. Aging is driven by DNA methylation, a process that influences which genes are turned on and which are turned off. We use DNA methylation as an epigenetic clock to measure biological age. DNA methylation changes as we age, to our detriment, and it's not just a surrogate marker of aging. DNA methylation appears to drive aging itself.  Foods that could lower your biological age: Liver [or liver capsules] Eggs Mushrooms [shitake or enoki] Leafy greens Pumpkin seeds Blueberries Turmeric Dr. Kara Fitzgerald Bio: Kara Fitzgerald, ND, IFMCP, is engaged in clinical research on DNA methylation using a diet and lifestyle intervention developed in her virtual and in-person Functional Medicine clinic.  She is the author of Younger You: Reduce Your Bio Age and Live Longer, Better, a ground-breaking work detailing an 8-week study that resulted in a 3-year reversal of biological aging, and the step-by-step program that will help you live better and longer.  In her quest for personalized health care for all, she leads clients through her Younger You Program and has as a Younger You companion cookbook, Better Broths, and Healing Tonics.  Dr. Fitzgerald is on faculty at the Institute for Functional Medicine [IFM] and is an IFM Certified Practitioner.  She regularly lectures internationally and hosts the podcast New Frontiers in Functional Medicine. She received her doctorate in naturopathic medicine from the National University of Natural Medicine in Oregon and is in private practice in Sandy Hook, Connecticut. In this episode: How cancer hijacks our epigenetics. [4:25] Dr. Fitzgerald defines methylation and explains how it differs from DNA methylation.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 158 points this morning from yesterday's close, at 25,738 on turnover of $13.5 billion NT Shares in Taiwan moved sharply lower Friday, led by large cap stocks, as investors rushed to pocket recent gains amid growing concerns that the local stock market is overvalued. Selling was seen almost across the board with non-tech stocks under heavy pressure throughout the session. Analysts say ongoing efforts by the Trump administration to put tariffs on imports to the United States also cast a shadow over future prospects. Allies Urge Taiwan Participation in UN Taiwan's diplomatic allies are once again urging the U.N. to allow the island's meaningful participation in the global body. At the close of the 80th United Nations General Assembly debate yesterday, St. Lucia's foregin minister Alva Baptiste emphasized that relevant UN resolutions do not prohibit or exclude (把…排斥在外) Taiwan's participation in the UN system. While St. Kitts and Nevis Prime Minister Terrance Drew said earlier during the meeting that allowing Taiwan to contribute to public health, technology, and disaster relief is not about taking sides, but about pragmatism (實用主義). He stressed that excluding Taiwan from organizations like the World Health Organization and the International Civil Aviation Organization harms the world's ability to solve problems together. Allies, including St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Lucia, Paraguay, the Marshall Islands, Palau, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Belize, Tuvalu, and Eswatini, all called on the U.N. to welcome Taiwan. (NS) Missile Attack Hits Ship in Gulf of Aden Officials say a missile attack by Yemen's Houthi rebels set a Dutch-flagged cargo ship ablaze in the Gulf of Aden, wounding two mariners. The owner of the ship says the crew abandoned the damaged vessel, which caught fire in the attack. The company says the damage done to the vessel is “substantial” (重大的). The ship's owner, says crew members were evacuated by helicopter. The French military says the Iranian-backed Houthis carried out the attack. The rebels have not claimed the assault, though it can take them hours or days to acknowledge their attacks. DRC Clashes Between ProGov Militia and M23 Rebels Fighting has erupted in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo between M23 rebels and a pro-government militia after days of a lull (暫時平靜[) in fighting. Chris Ocamringa has more from Kinshasa.. OpenAI New Parental Controls for ChatGPT OpenAI has announced new parental controls for ChatGPT to make it safer for teens. This comes after concerns about AI chatbot safety for young users, including tragic cases where teenagers took their lives after using ChatGPT. To get started, parents can send an email or text invite to their teen to link accounts. Teens can also invite parents. The new controls include automatic safeguards for teen accounts, such as reduced (減少) graphic content and restrictions on sensitive topics. Parents will have a dashboard to adjust settings and receive notifications if their child might be in distress (憂慮，悲傷，痛苦). That was the I.C.R.T.

South Africa will today launch Africa's first National Action Plan, NAP to tackle substandard and falsified medical products. The initiative aims to curb the spread of fake and poor-quality medicines, which the World Health Organisation says claims numerous lives globally each year, often undetected. The South African Health Products Regulatory Authority, alongside the National Department of Health and WHO, will unveil the plan this morning. Elvis Presslin spoke to SAHPRA's Head of Regulatory Compliance, Mokgadi Daphney Fafudi

A recent analysis in The Lancet Regional Health Southeast Asia, found that one in five deliveries in India are now by Caesarean section. From 2005, when the rate of C-section was 8.5%, it has risen to 21.5% as of 2021, the analysis said. International bodies such as the World Health Organization discourage high rates of C-section, as they are associated with longer hospital stays and higher healthcare costs, burdening both patients' families and the healthcare system. So what is driving the rates up in India despite the fact that C-sections, in general, cost more? Is patient preference a factor? Is this an area that could do with guidelines or regulations?

Warum lächelt sie obwohl sie gerade belästigt wird? Warum kooperieren Opfer bei Geiselnahmen oder Kidnapping? Warum bleiben manche Menschen viel zu lange in gewaltvollen Beziehungen? Das sind Fragen, die in der Forschung zu Coping, Traumareaktionen und Gewaltbeziehungen seit Jahren diskutiert werden und wir wollen das Ganze mal für euch einordnen. Diese Podcastfolge beleuchtet die psychologischen Überlebensstrategien, die in akuten und dauerhaften Gewaltsituationen greifen: von Appeasement-Strategien und dem viel diskutierten Fawning bis hin zum komplexen Phänomen des Trauma Bondings. **Quellen:** Bailey, B. et al.

Jessica Sheldon (PhD) is on a mission to starve out Acinetobacter baumannii —one of the world's most virulent hospital-borne pathogens. Notorious for its speedy evolution and multi-drug resistance, the hospital-borne bacteria lingers on dry surfaces and infects critically-ill patients, leading to sepsis, pneumonia and high mortality rates. In this episode, Sheldon delves into the real-life events that drove her to investigate histamine, and its role in bacterial survival and immune response. In 2022, Sheldon joined the University of Saskatchewan's College of Medicine as an assistant professor of Biochemistry, Microbiology & Immunology -- something she now laughs about after an ill-fated high school placement in an immunology laboratory. “Cytokine cascades, pathways, the signaling just got way over my head real fast,” said Sheldon. “I didn't really know what I was doing.” Sheldon enrolled at Lakehead University, drawn to the tiny pathogens with outsized roles in movies like Outbreak. She estimates she read the book The Hot Zone 20 times. Her persistence paid off. “One of my second year microbiology teachers said, ‘you know, I think you're kind of good at this. Maybe you should try it as a career.' Sheldon zeroed in on metals and wrote her doctoral dissertation on the role iron plays in the proliferation of bacteria such as Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Today, she studies both Morganella morganii and Acinetobacter baumannii —  the multi-drug-resistant bacteria singled out twice in the last decade by the World Health Organization as a ‘priority 1-critical pathogen'. “I'm perpetually fascinated by the idea that something so small can change the course of history,” said Sheldon. “And we've seen that recently with COVID.” Sheldon was already studying the metal uptake and signalling systems that grow and sustain A. baumannii when the bacteria ripped through hospitals during the pandemic, attacking Covid-infected patients on ventilators. By 2023, Sheldon landed a five-year CIHR grant of $900,000 to study A. Baumannii and the way it turns histidine into histamine. Her goal is to pinpoint the way the pathogen uses histamine to evade its host, as it sends out siderophores to steal iron and other nutrients. The compound appears to serve as a signalling mechanism for both the host and the invading pathogen, she said. “We know the bacteria are using histamine in the synthesis of these molecules to get iron, but they're also secreting it into the environment. We're not really sure why,” Sheldon said. Her laboratory is working to trace and target those pathways, so researchers can identify and potentially develop new treatments — small molecules or antibody inhibitors that could disrupt multi-drug resistant pathogens. Beyond A. baumannii, histamine may hold the key to how some of the world's most notorious bacteria grow, spread, and evade immune defences, Sheldon said. “We're running out of drugs, but there's really not a full appreciation for the fact that we're losing the ability to treat bacterial infections,” Sheldon said.  “We need to develop supplementary therapies or alternative therapies.”

It seems like everywhere you turn anymore there are stories in the news that challenge us to think critically and biblically about what is going on around us. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we spoke to our expert on climate and the environment and the regulations regarding them and he told us about some important changes regarding classification of carbon dioxide, why the European Union wants more use of artificial intelligence and more conflicts with the NetZero polices being heralded just a few short years ago. Then we spoke to a front line fighter for American sovereignty as she continues to update on of the World Health Organization’s unrelenting push to impose international health regulations on all people in all countries that will digital I.D.’s that can track every aspect of your life and would open the door to the kind of social control currently in practice in communist China. Our guest explained why legislation is needed to protect our national sovereignty from this invasive effort and we posted a link to a petition you can sign on our website so that you can join in the fight. Traditional, orthodox Christian beliefs that were once both commonly known and universally accepted are being challenged like never before. Preachers and teachers are leading people astray with what the apostle Paul referred to as “another gospel”. Our guest said that this confusion is leading to legalism, wrong thinking about grace and an over emphasis on prosperity. He took us back to the scriptures to expose these lies and subtle deceptions as a way of lifting their burden off of people’s hearts and turning once again back to the unchanging power and truth of the true gospel. It is fair to say that the Christian life has no power apart from the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the grave. That world transforming event, broke the curse of sin and set captive humanity free. But how much do we avail ourselves of that transformative power? Our guest, a respected apologist, explained the archeological evidence to His resurrection, why His resurrection is SO important and how to use that truth to draw others to the foot of His cross. Once again, we encouraged you to bring your questions to our conversation with a respected expert on the encroachment of the so-called ‘gay gospel”. Having come out of that lifestyle, our guest has been able to see its growing impact on the church of today and how much more acceptance of this false gospel has grown over the years. He offered clear, biblical sound answers to some of the most challenging aspects of this issue for families, friends and churches. Janet and Craig are back with another examination of the headlines of the week through the unchanging lens of scripture.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The U.S. is one of only seven countries to see a significant increase in maternal mortality rates in 2023, according to the World Health Organization.The U.S. sees steeper rates than any other high-income country, and maternal and infant mortality risks spike further in Black community.Delaware was among seven states with the lowest maternal mortality rates in the nation in 2024. But Black pregnant people here are still significantly more at risk during pregnancy and postpartum, representing 45% of the maternal deaths despite making up only 21% of the state's population.Delaware-based organization Black Mothers in Power wants to see those numbers drop in the First State. That's why they're opening a Maternal Care Center in Wilmington, according to BMIP Founder and Wilmington City Councilwoman Shané Darby.She and project director Kristin Bainger sit down with Delaware Public Media's Abigail Lee to talk about the ins and outs of the new facility.

Leaders around the world are warning their citizens to completely ignore the fact-free medical advice that is coming out of Donald Trump and his cabinet. The British Health Ministry has specifically warned their citizens that the claims are completely false, and the World Health Organization has come out and said that the claims made by Trump and the cabinet on Monday are not based on any real science. The world is laughing at us, as usual.Hundreds of people who were detained at the infamous "Alligator Alcatraz" facility in Florida cannot be located in any federal database, including lists of deportations. These individuals have simply been "disappeared" by the federal government after they were ordered to close down the facility and relocate all of the detainees - which included legal residents. This is the most terrifying development in the Trump administration's immigration crackdown, as these people have simply dropped off the map, and the administration made that happen. America is once again on the brink of a government shutdown, the 8th time this has happened since Republicans took over the House of Representatives following the 2022 midterms. Donald Trump was supposed to be meeting with House and Senate Democrats on Thursday, but decided to chicken out at the last minute because that's what he does best. Trump doesn't want to have to sit with the "mean" Democrats and actually try a little diplomacy, so the "Great Dealmaker" has decided to run and hide. Donald Trump repeated his favorite false claim at the UN this week when he said that he has ended 7 wars since taking office in January. He's made this claim so many times that reporters aren't even bothering to fact check it, and that's a very real problem. These "7 wars" are ALL still happening, with major military operations and deaths in just the last week taking place between these countries. None of the fighting has stopped, but Trump is doing a victory lap over paper victories and photo ops. Karoline Leavitt was forced to twist herself into knots this week in order to defend the bribery allegations against border czar Tom Homan along with Donald Trump's hateful rhetoric - literally declaring that he HATES his opponents. Leavitt dismissed both of these events, saying that neither person did anything wrong, in spite of both of the incidents being caught on video. Leavitt wants you to think that all bad things are good if Republicans do them, and they can only be considered bad if Democrats do them.Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!

How much sugar are you really eating each day — and what is it doing to your body? In this episode of The Nutrition Couch, Susie and Leanne take a deep dive into the world of sugar and the fast-growing category of sugar alternatives. From coffee syrups and “healthy” bliss balls to slushies, sauces and acai bowls, we expose where hidden sugars are sneaking into your diet and why Australians are consuming almost triple the World Health Organization’s daily recommendation. We also explore the cutting-edge science of allulose — a newly approved natural sweetener that looks, tastes and bakes like sugar but doesn’t spike blood glucose. Could this be the breakthrough that finally helps us cut down without sacrificing taste? Inside this episode: The surprising amount of added sugar the average Australian eats every day The health consequences of sugar overload, from inflammation to insulin resistance The truth about “natural” sugars like honey, maple and coconut sugar The rise of sugar replacements — from artificial sweeteners to monk fruit, and now allulose Practical tips for reducing added sugars while still enjoying baking, coffee, and treats Our listener Q&A: How to make healthier swaps in your favourite baked goods If you’ve ever wondered how to enjoy sweet foods without the downsides, this episode will give you the evidence-based guidance you need.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A new policy paper from NexSys, an all-island, multidisciplinary energy research programme, has highlighted that the current standards for ventilation in energy-efficient homes in Ireland do not always support healthy indoor air quality. 'As part of Ireland's commitment to a sustainable future, there is a big focus on building energy-efficient homes and promoting deep retrofitting of existing premises to increase their energy efficiency,' says lead author Dr Divyanshu Sood, a Senior Energy Systems Researcher at the UCD Energy Institute. 'Energy efficiency in buildings is important for sustainability, but we need to ensure that the air quality inside the house is both comfortable and healthy for the people in those buildings.' Poor indoor air quality is associated with an increased risk of respiratory symptoms and potential cardiovascular problems, as defined by the World Health Organisation. The NexSys policy paper draws from a study of nine energy-efficient homes in Ireland with natural ventilation. The study showed a buildup of carbon dioxide, volatile organic compounds and particulate matter in living rooms, kitchens and bedrooms as a consequence of people living and cooking in the houses without an adequate supply of air. The paper makes policy recommendations to improve indoor air quality in energy-efficient homes, including allowing for mechanical ventilation and making occupants more aware of the need to open windows and doors and ventilate living areas. 'While current building standards meet energy-efficiency requirements, they do not explicitly require indoor air quality to be considered in design. They assume compliant ventilation will dilute pollutants, and do not account for how occupants' everyday activities can affect air quality,' says Dr Sood. 'The standards work on paper, but our study shows that once people move in and carry out everyday activities - such as cooking, burning scented candles, or using sprays - inadequate ventilation often has a negative impact on indoor air quality over time,' says Dr Ibrahim. The new policy paper summarises research conducted as part of the ALIVE project in the University of Galway and University College Dublin. The ALIVE project tracked air quality, energy usage and user behaviour in nine houses that had been newly built and complied with energy standards, achieving A2 or A3 BER ratings. Each home was occupied by adults and children. The new policy paper outlines several policy recommendations that are needed to address the potential impact of current energy-efficiency standards on indoor air quality. They include changing how indoor air quality is monitored to ensure safety, combining natural and mechanical ventilation to improve air switching and indoor air quality, and house occupants being made aware of the importance of opening windows to improve indoor air quality. "Opening a small window may noticeably affect indoor temperature, but it can greatly improve air quality. Our study found that when occupants recognise poor air quality and understand ventilation in airtight homes, they take timely actions that swiftly dilute built-up pollutants, as shown by several 'shining example' houses", says Dr Ibrahim. "Summer overheating is another significant challenge highlighted by our study, where factors such as inadequate ventilation, poor building orientation, and limited shading can increase the risk of indoor overheating", says Dr Sood. 'This is an opportunity to improve the health and living standards of people living and working in energy-efficient buildings,' says Dr Sood. In the meantime, Dr Sood suggests that people living in energy-efficient homes can improve indoor air quality by opening windows to bring fresh air in. The policy paper, Indoor Air Quality and Ventilation in Newly Built Homes, is available from NexSys and on PublicPolicy.ie

We'd love to hear from you about this episode.According to 2025 data released by the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 1 billion people are living with mental health disorders. US survey data collected in March and April 2025 indicate a substantial portion of adults experienced a mental health crisis in the past year, with many facing barriers to accessing help. The US is experiencing a significant shortage of mental health providers, which has led to a reduction in access to care. We must find proactive ways to manage the rising mental and emotional challenges that we consistently face. Creativity and wellness are deeply connected. Engaging in creative activities like art, music, and writing has been shown to reduce stress and lower symptoms of anxiety and depression. Making time for creative outlets as a form of self-care allows for emotional management and expression, stimulates brain function, and promotes a sense of connection to oneself and others. Welcome to Episode Seventy-One of the Nature of Wellness ™️ Podcast!!! In this episode, we spoke with artist, mental health advocate, and keynote speaker Jeffrey Sparr.

 FUBU, BRAVO, CNN, Champion of Change ~National Suicide Prevention Week, an annual week-long campaign in the United States to inform and engage health professionals and the general public about suicide prevention/warning signs of suicideA Noted Film Director, Hezues R, who's been applauded by The U.S. President of the United States & worked with the likes of  Ciroc Vodka, Russell Simmons on successful media campaigns, He addresses the issue of mental health, through a movie called "Suicide Saint".Through all of this madness is one issue that has plagued people of color with very few having the courage to address – mental health. The World Health Organization (WHO) states over 800,000 people commit suicide every year – that's one person every forty seconds. Also, the National Council for Behavioral Health notes that 46% of adults in the USA experience mental illness. In communities of color, according to the non-profit community organization, Mental Health America, out of 13% of Black Americans in the USA (according to the Census Bureau), 16% reported having mental illness – that's over 7 million people (more than the overall populations of Chicago, Philadelphia and Houston combined). Finally, the Center for Disease Control published that suicides and attempted suicides cost the nation almost $70 billion per year in lifetime medical and work-loss costs alone.Not many filmmakers have been honored by one President of the United States, let alone two. Then again Hezues R isn't your average filmmaker, as none other share the combination of his adversity and accolades , all the more reason why the entertainment industry is taking notice of this film protégé's next project, which he claims will be his masterpiece: SUICIDE SAINT.If you know Hezues R, then you've likely been inspired, as his own life is bigger than a movie. At 22 years old, he survived a barrage of bullets fired at him point blank 22 times by three would-be assailants His survival is nothing short of a miracle but still not as miraculous as his meteoric rise in entertainment - from high school dropout and drug dealer to self-made creative titan. No college, mentor, backers or connections - just a relentless work ethic and pure undeniable talent. From creating the official fragrance for the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton to running Sean P. Diddy Combs' advertising campaigns (Ciroc, Sean John , Deleon) as an executive producer, while finding creative ways to give back and interject social impact in his content, like the critically acclaimed film, “April Showers.” With suicide rates rapidly increasing and almost half of adults experiencing mental illness, Hezues R declares that “Rome is burning and as a society we're not giving enough concern to the media we create - which influences how we see ourselves and each other” His mission is to save lives by making the film “Suicide Saint” and in the process, change the protocol of Hollywood. Hezues R believes in art over algorithms and that films shouldn't just be made for profit but the added value of social good and the sake of creating something beautiful and inspiring. Hezues R gained fast followers, such as the United Nations, as they've selected his film as the sole movie they're endorsing in the International 40 Days Safer Cities initiative- with “Suicide Saint” being day #20 which also falls on Oct 10th - World Mental Health Day.© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASJoin me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

Though not widely discussed, EMFs have been classified by the World Health Organization as a Class 2B possible carcinogen and are linked in over 2,000 studies to issues like:DNA damageNeurological disordersSleep disruptionCardiovascular diseaseFertility problemsArthur's background in biology and engineering, plus personal experiences with illness in his family, led him to explore the health risks of EMF exposure and design protective clothing through HAVN.As technology evolves (especially with 5G and 6G), EMF exposure is increasing. Newer tech requires more antennas and emits stronger frequencies, especially in urban areas and smart homes filled with connected devices.Even wearables like fitness trackers (e.g., WHOOP) and cell phones—due to proximity—may be worse offenders than Wi-Fi routers. EMFs are likened to pollution: invisible, everywhere, and cumulative in their effects over time.Arthur emphasizes reducing exposure, especially during sleep (1/3 of your life!), as a powerful first step. His top free or low-cost tips:Put your phone on airplane mode or keep it out of the bedroom at night.Turn off your Wi-Fi router overnight (via timer plug if necessary).Avoid sleeping with wearables like WHOOP or smartwatches.Keep devices off your body when not in use.Use EMF meters (offered by HAVN) to detect high-emission areas in your home.Arthur developed HAVN Clothing (spelled HAVN, removing “EMF” from “haven”) to shield essential organs from EMF without compromising modern life. Their proprietary WaveStopper fabric blocks 99.7% of EMFs (400 MHz–40 GHz) using silver fiber mesh.Available products include:PajamasUnderwearHats and beaniesGaiters for thyroidBlanketsHoodies for travelThese are particularly helpful for people living in apartments or dense urban environments where community EMF exposure is high. For beginners, Arthur recommends starting with headwear, underwear, and sleepwear to protect the most vulnerable organs during sleep.If you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at brad@over40fitnesshacks.com or visit my website at:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comAdditionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV

For decades, Africa's malaria strategy has focused almost exclusively on disease control through indoor mosquito management and personal protection — bed nets, indoor spraying, and individual-level interventions. But this approach alone isn't working. Progress against malaria in the African region has slowed significantly, with cases declining by just 5% since 2015 and mortality by 16%, according to the World Health Organization. Experts now argue it's time to shift from disease-centric, indoor mosquito management to more robust integrated mosquito management strategies. That means taking a tiered approach, starting with reducing mosquito breeding sites, treating water sources with larvicides, and then targeting adult mosquitoes. “The tendency will probably be to think about controlling mosquitoes when they are flying only. But they are actually more vulnerable when they are not flying, usually when they are in the water,” explained Silas Majambere, a medical entomologist and business manager of Africa, Europe, and the Middle East at Valent BioSciences. This approach, known as larval source management, has proven both cost-effective and sustainable. “The conversation is shifting away from just talking about a disease and saying, ‘How do we take those limited public health dollars and manage the mosquito so that we can manage multiple diseases for those dollars?'” said Jason Clark, managing director for global public health and forest health at Valent BioSciences. Some countries are already moving in this direction. In Benin, the government is framing mosquito control not just as a health issue but as an economic one. The government is focusing on tourism as one of the key pillars of growth for the country, and the presence of mosquito-borne diseases is a direct threat to that, explained Sinde Chekete, adviser to the president of Benin. “We believe that investing in mosquito control will ultimately bring resources, will bring revenue, because we'll be able to welcome more tourists … and reduce the overall cost of malaria,” he said. Chekete, Majambere, and Clark joined Devex Executive Editor Kate Warren to discuss the shift toward integrated mosquito management in a special Devex podcast episode sponsored by Valent BioSciences.

In this episode, I'll be applying diagnostic criteria to two fictional characters: Sherlock Holmes (played by various actors) and Charlie (from the film, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, played by Logan Lerman). As I journey through these characters' stories, you may see some related themes in your own life. At first, the episode will be a little…technical (with loads of medical jargon). But, stick with me. You might learn something about yourself. And, it may surprise you to learn about my view of diagnostic criteria…SPOILER ALERT for anyone who has not seen these characters portrayed in media (as I will be discussing specific moments). Also, my utilization of these films and characters is not an endorsement of their content nor their themes.

I hope you don't mind me sharing my continuing journey in raising awareness and money for dementia research. I'm releasing an album of my music (and it's not disco!) on 10th October 2025. Here I talk about my fears of writing a song about dementia and getting it wrong. I did care for two close relatives with dementia, but I will never know what it was like from their point of view.The first track from the album is out now. It's called Maybe I'm Gay. It's available to stream and download everywhere. Here's the link to Apple Music.All proceeds from the album, called The Gift, are in aid of the charity, Alzheimer's Research UK. It is estimated that 982,000 people are living with dementia in the UK today, rising to 1.4 million by 2040. In 2022 it was the leading cause of death in the UK. Globally the World Health Organisation estimates that 57 million people have dementia. New cases are occurring at the rate of nearly 10 million each year, which breaks down to about one new case every 3.2 seconds. In the UK, the estimated economic impact of dementia in 2024 was £42.5 billion, a figure that is expected to more than double by 2040.

Lead in gasoline powered cars have killed more people than those that died in World War Two. That's the astonishing claim of David Obst who, in his new Saving Ourselves From Big Car, lays out a strategy to kick our self-destructive automobile addiction. The former investigative reporter, who worked with Seymour Hersh on the My Lai massacre story and represented Woodward and Bernstein for All the President's Men, argues that the auto industry suppressed knowledge about lead's deadly effects for 70 years. More controversially, Obst claims electric vehicles are no better due to the lead in batteries. The only safe future is one without cars, he insists, pointing to car-free communities like Tempe, Arizona and Taipei, Taiwan as models for breaking what he calls our addiction to automobiles.1. Lead in gasoline killed more people than World War II Obst claims that from 1927 to the 1990s, lead additives in gasoline caused more deaths globally than WWII, citing World Health Organization statistics - though interviewer Andrew Keen found this claim conspiratorial.2. Electric vehicles aren't the solution Surprisingly, Obst argues EVs are just as dangerous as gas cars because their batteries contain lead. He points to Tesla fires in the California Palisades spreading lead pollution as evidence of this ongoing problem.3. The auto industry suppressed the truth for 70 years The Ethel Corporation (formed by Standard Oil, DuPont, and GM) allegedly kept lead's deadly effects secret through lobbying and silencing critics, including exiling Caltech scientist Claire Patterson who tried to expose the danger.4. Americans are "addicted" to cars Inspired by his granddaughter telling him "you are the traffic," Obst argues we must treat car dependence like any other addiction - acknowledging that 30% of gasoline is burned just looking for parking spaces.5. Car-free communities are the only answer Obst profiles successful car-free zones from Tempe, Arizona (6,000 residents, no cars allowed) to Taipei's bicycle-centric system, arguing for gradual implementation of car-free neighborhoods rather than overnight transformation.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

The Global Mental Health Crisis – A Call for Urgent Action Episode Summary In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, we dive into the staggering findings from the World Health Organization's latest report revealing that over one billion people worldwide are living with mental health conditions. The data paints a sobering picture of the economic and social toll of untreated mental illness, including lost productivity, rising healthcare costs, and alarming inequities between high and low-income countries. We explore why mental health is more than just a healthcare issue — it's a fundamental human right and a strategic imperative for leaders and organizations everywhere. The conversation connects global statistics to the workplace, emphasizing that mental well-being is essential for organizational success, employee retention, and sustainable growth. You'll also hear practical strategies for leaders to take immediate steps in supporting mental health within their companies, from fostering a culture of openness to investing in accessible resources and support systems. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why over one billion people are affected by mental health conditions worldwide — and what this means for all of us. The economic consequences of poor mental health, including its impact on productivity and organizational outcomes. The widening gap in access to care between high and low-income nations, and why this disparity must be addressed. How leaders can make mental well-being a central part of workplace culture. Actionable steps organizations can take now to invest in employee mental health and avoid greater long-term costs. Why This Matters Mental health is no longer a topic we can afford to sideline. It's a human rights issue that directly influences organizational resilience, performance, and innovation. The cost of inaction is far greater than the cost of investment.
