This week on Health Matters, we explore how to protect yourself from diseases carried by ticks and mosquitos. Dr. Jennifer Small-Saunders, an infectious disease expert with NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia, explains why mosquitos are more attracted to some people than others. She also shares symptoms of diseases like West Nile Virus and Lyme Disease, how we can go about our summer activities without getting bitten, and what to do if you've been bitten.___Dr. Jennifer Small-Saunders is an Infectious Diseases physician-scientist who studies molecular mechanisms of antimalarial drug resistance in Plasmodium falciparum parasites. She is a practicing Infectious Diseases physician who sees patients on both the Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases teaching services. She completed Internal Medicine residency and Infectious Diseases fellowship at Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC). Her postdoctoral studies investigated the landscape of mutations in the P. falciparum chloroquine resistance transporter PfCRT and how these mutations contribute to parasite resistance to chloroquine and piperaquine in Asia and Africa. Her group now uses mass spectrometry and gene editing techniques to study the role of tRNA modification reprogramming and translational control in resistance to the first line antimalarial, artemisinin.  The goal of her group is to uncover stress-response pathways in malaria parasites that can be targeted by new treatments.___Health Matters is your weekly dose of health and wellness information, from the leading experts.

BEST OF TSTSHOW 1: In 2008 the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation financed Jichi Medical University in Japan to develop “a mosquito that can produce and secrete a malaria vaccine protein.” The initiative was aimed at creating a “flying syringe, to deliver protective vaccine via saliva.” In 2010 they gave money to UK-based biotech company Oxitec to develop genetically modified mosquitoes that could be lethal to carriers of dengue, zika, and yellow fever. Science Magazine published a report that year on this Japanese research and discussed what they called “flying vaccinators.” In 2015 the people of Florida, set to be the Oxitec testing ground, signed a petition against such open-air lab trials. In 2021 the trial proceeded regardless and in April 2022 Nature published a report on the results which found that although mosquitoes died in large numbers there was no reduction in disease spread or need for pesticides, which often cause the very symptoms of the diseases. A few days ago a mosquito-malaria-vaccine trial was carried out in Washington State. Of 14 participants, 7 were diagnosed with malaria leading researchers to declare their mosquito-vaccine was 50% effective. However, they made no mention of how the other half of the group could be exposed to ‘malaria' and yet not develop the disease with its vague ‘symptom complex' list. There is no question why such a malaria vaccine should be tested in the U.S. where cases rarely top 2,000 and where death rarely reaches double digits. Meanwhile, Africa is home to 95% of cases and 96% of deaths, while India is home to most of the world's polio. It is likely these ‘disease' are caused by environment, as demonstrated by official WHO data, rather than tiny invisible particles. While focus has been on the mosquito, the NIH and B&MGF have also been researching a needle-less vaccine. Such research goes back to Spain in 1999 where researchers were able to spread vaccine-induced antibodies to non-vaccinated rabbits via vaccinated rabbits. All was done in natural interaction without needle, misquotes, or any other tool. SHOW 2: Malaria is supposedly on the rise in the United States, where seven cases between Florida and Texas have been reported in the last few weeks. The CDC issued a public health alert as a result and the media collectively is spreading the terror of malaria with graphs, charts, stories, and symptoms. The strange thing is that malaria is always present, particularly in those two states, where in 2012 cases were 102 in Texas and 59 in Florida. Over the years those numbers went up and down, peaking in 2019 and then dropping significantly in 2020. This is why the media can claim cases are on the rise even if they are below the previous decade peak. From NPR to the New Scientist there are, of course, solutions to this terrible outbreak that isn't much of an outbreak: vaccines and genetically modified mosquitoes that could produce antibodies against malaria parasite. However, these same genetically modified insects have been in development since 2008 and were released in Florida after 2015. They were created with money from the B&MGF: “a mosquito that can produce and secrete a malaria vaccine protein.” But what if gm-mosquitoes are another alternative lab-leak theory? Malaria's symptoms are themselves invariably described in the same way that heat stroke symptoms are: headaches, fever, muscle aches, nausea, etc. Any mosquito issue, genetically modified or otherwise, can of course be treated with new drugs and chemicals, like the Pyriproxyfen that caused Microcephaly which was blamed on zika and mosquitos. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Karostas ūdenstornī Liepājā nedēļas nogalē norisināsies laikmetīgās kamermūzikas koncertu cikls “Ūdenstornī san”. Cikla mākslinieciskais vadītājs, komponists Ernests Vilsons izveidojis koncertu programmu, kas izcels gan jauno latviešu komponistu oriģināldarbus, gan šīs unikālās vēsturiskās celtnes akustiskās nianses. „Patiesībā to ir grūti salīdzināt. Iespējams, līdzīga sajūta varētu būt baznīcā. Šī būtu tāda ne-baznīcas vieta ar līdzīgu akustiku. Bet vizuāli, arhitektoniski tā ir pavisam citāda struktūra,” stāsta Vilsons, īpaši izceļot arī ūdenstorņa vēsturi. „Karostas ūdenstornis būvēts 20. gadsimta pašā sākumā – laikposmā no 1903. līdz 1905. gadam – militārās pilsētas Karostas vajadzībām un lielāko daļu pagājušā gadsimta kalpojis kā ūdenstornis. (..) Tas beidza funkcionēt kā ūdenstornis tikai 1989. gadā. Kopš tā laika tas ir tādā nenoteiktā stāvoklī, to uztur "Liepājas ūdens". Viņi ir atbildīgi un rūpējas, lai tur viss būtu kārtībā, lai šī vide reizēm būtu pieejama arī apmeklētājiem, un ir brīži, kad tas ir apmeklēts. Pats esmu bijis ūdenstornī arī agrāk – gan kā viesis, gan pirms astoņiem gadiem piedaloties mākslinieku Karostas ūdenstorņa projektā. Toreiz man bija iespēja veidot un sarakstīt šim ūdenstornim skaņdarbu četrām balsīm. Tā bija unikāla iespēja – rakstīt darbu tajā pašā telpā, kurā tas vēlāk koncertā tika atskaņots. Akustika ir ļoti spēcīga ūdenstorņa daļa. Protams, baltās sienas un milzu apjoms ir pirmais, ko mēs, ūdenstornī ieejot, uzreiz pamanām. Bet arī tas, kā tas skan! Kāda ir atbalss, cik plaši skaņa izskan un cik ilgi tā kavējas!” Ernests Vilsons stāsta, ka koncertos piedalīsies ar Liepāju saistīti mūziķi: perkusionisti Marta Kauliņa-Pelnēna, Reinis Tomiņš, Matīss Skarēvičs, Berči stīgu kvartets. Sarunā vairāk arī par Karostas koncertu programmām un pirmatskaņojumiem, gan mūzikas autoriem, kuri arī cieši saistīti ar Liepāju, par telpu, kurā skanēs mūzika, klausītāju interesi un meistarklasēm.

Recorded on 10 July 2025 for ICMDA Webinars.Howard Lyons chairs a webinar with Prof Annelies Wilder-SmithThe COVID-19 pandemic taught us that global health is interconnected, and delayed action costs lives. Strong public health systems, early response, and equitable access to vaccines are critical. The rapid development of mRNA vaccines showed the power of well-funded, coordinated science.However, science must remain apolitical - when politicized, it erodes public trust and fuels misinformation. Clear communication, preparedness, and protecting vulnerable populations are essential. The pandemic revealed the fragility of health systems and the urgent need for resilience. As Scripture reminds us, pestilences are part of a broken world (Luke 21:11) - COVID-19 was not the first and will not be the last.Dr. Annelies Wilder-Smith has devoted her career to emerging infectious diseases, particularly those impacting low- and middle-income countries. Her path was shaped during two decades in Asia, where she was at the forefront of the SARS outbreak, and investigated the H5N1, dengue and Zika virus outbreaks. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she served as an external advisor to the World Health Organization, where she developed COVID-19 vaccine policies for the global use.Annelies is Honorary Professor of Emerging Infectious Diseases at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Past President of the International Society of Travel Medicine, and Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Travel Medicine. Her academic career resulted in 380 publications and many research grants. She leads the Lancet Commission on Dengue and was Principal Investigator of EU-funded research consortia.Her awards include the Myron Levine Vaccinology Prize and the CDC Honor Group Award. Annelies is also the author of Travel Medicine: Tales Behind the Science and Grasping Heaven, a biography of Dr. Tami Fisk. She lives in Switzerland with her husband, a professor of neurology; both their children are physicians in training.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To listen live to future ICMDA webinars visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://icmda.net/resources/webinars/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Mücken nerven – und sie töten. In vielen Teilen der Welt übertragen sie Krankheiten wie Dengue, Malaria oder Zika. Die Folgen sind oft dramatisch – für Menschen und auch für ganze Volkswirtschaften. Mit gentechnisch veränderten Mücken will die Forschung den Spiess nun umdrehen: gezielte Züchtung, sterile Männchen, genetische Selbstzerstörung. Klingt wie Science-Fiction, ist aber Realität – in manchen Ländern bereits im Einsatz. Doch was bringt die Technik wirklich? Welche Risiken gibt es für Umwelt und Artenvielfalt? Und wie weit darf Wissenschaft in natürliche Kreisläufe eingreifen? Der Parasitologe Niels Verhulst von der Universität Zürich klärt auf.

We've all gotten frustrated after squashing the tenth mosquito ruining a beautiful summer evening — especially after days of relentless itching. Mosquitoes are a global nuisance. In tropical regions, they're more than just annoying: they can transmit serious diseases like malaria, dengue fever, and Zika virus. But despite all the efforts, these tiny insects continue to thrive — and buzz in our ears all summer long. But why do mosquitoes bite us? And why does it itch so much? And by the way… why don't we just get rid of mosquitoes altogether? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In the Season one finale of our show, hosts Dr. Vivian Vega and Dr. Jackie Sherbuk reflect on the evolving landscape of infectious diseases and public health. Yet rather than linger on setbacks, they look ahead, posing the critical question: “What are the future pandemic threats?”To explore what transforms a simple pathogen into a global threat, they examine three key characteristics: transmission, virulence, and available countermeasures.Transmission, it turns out, must strike a delicate balance. A virus must spread efficiently—fast enough to infect large populations, but not so aggressively that it incapacitates or kills its host before passing to the next person. Similarly, a pathogen that is too virulent may burn out quickly, unable to spread widely before its hosts succumb. As for countermeasures, their availability and effectiveness vary. Influenza, for instance, can be treated with antivirals, while diseases like Nipah virus remain without effective therapies.At the time of this recording, H5N1 avian influenza stands out as a pressing concern. Dr. Vega reveals a startling fact: domestic cats may serve as an unexpected intermediary host, offering a new pathway for H5N1 to bridge the gap to humans. It's a reminder of how creatively and unpredictably pathogens can bypass traditional barriers.Dr. Sherbuk turns to Ebola as a striking example of how sheer virulence can catapult a disease to global attention. Past outbreaks in Africa overwhelmed health systems, exploiting cultural practices like burial rituals to fuel its spread. Even the limited number of U.S. cases during the 2014 outbreak stirred widespread public fear, driven by the virus's high mortality rate abroad.Not all dangerous pathogens are highly lethal. Some, like Zika virus, pose serious risks in specific populations—such as fetal abnormalities in pregnant women. Others, like HTLV-1, may cause chronic illnesses like leukemia and lymphoma.While many pathogens naturally evolve to become less lethal—thereby enhancing their chances of transmission—some mutate unpredictably, becoming more dangerous. This is the ongoing concern with influenza: a seemingly mild strain could shift into something far deadlier.The importance of countermeasures cannot be overstated. Yet in the aftermath of COVID-19, global readiness has been undermined by pandemic fatigue and the politicization of public health. Mistrust in vaccines, fractured health policy, and diminished international cooperation all threaten our capacity to respond to the next crisis.But what if the next pandemic comes from a direction we didn't anticipate?Scientists have a name for this uncertainty: “Disease X.” The World Health Organization coined the term as a placeholder for the unknown. COVID-19 was once Disease X—until it had a name. The next one could emerge from zoonotic spillovers like HIV or Nipah, climate change, laboratory accidents, or even bioterrorism.Whatever its origin, our best defense lies in robust surveillance, scientific agility, and global collaboration. Because the question isn't if Disease X will come—but whether we'll be ready when it does.Dr Vega would like to thank her friend Job Meiller for his musical contribution to our segment breaks. Thank you Job!Thanks also to Dr. Ana Velez, our artistic contributor, for her painting, "The Multivirus Pandemic Explosion," used in our episode thumbnail.

C dans l'air du 28 juin 2025 - Canicule: des logements "boulloires thermiques" - Une canicule historique se met en place sur la France. Quatorze départements sont en vigilance orange ce samedi dans le sud de la France, avant une extension vers le nord du pays. Cinquante-trois départements seront placés demain en vigilance orange, de l'Île-de-France à l'arc méditerranéen, et de la Vendée au Doubs, a indiqué Météo-France, qui s'attend à ce que les températures atteignent 34 à 38 °C dès aujourd'hui dans les départements concernés par la vigilance orange, et qu'elles approchent "ponctuellement les 40 °C près de la Méditerranée". Ces fortes chaleurs vont durer au moins jusqu'à mardi, alertent les prévisionnistes, qui anticipent des nuits "très désagréables", lors desquelles le mercure ne devrait pas descendre en dessous de 20 degrés.En cause : un "dôme de chaleur", un puissant anticyclone formant actuellement un couvercle sur la région sud de l'Europe, qui piège l'air chaud et empêche les perturbations de circuler. Le phénomène augmente considérablement les risques d'incendies. En Grèce, l'île de Chios a été ravagée par les flammes, et plusieurs villages balnéaires à l'est d'Athènes ont dû être évacués.En France, autorités locales, pompiers et préfectures multiplient les alertes et rappels de précaution. Le numéro vert canicule (0 800 06 66 66), destiné à informer le public et à protéger les plus vulnérables, a été réactivé.Face à cette situation, la Fondation pour le logement des défavorisés (ex-Fondation Abbé Pierre) alerte sur les "bouilloires thermiques", ces logements mal isolés devenus invivables sous la chaleur. Ils représenteraient 35 % des habitations en France. En Île-de-France, 3,7 millions de personnes, soit 31 % de la population, résident dans des îlots de chaleur urbains. Conséquence : la mortalité augmente lors des périodes de canicule, comme en juillet 2022, quand la région avait enregistré une surmortalité de 21 %. Selon la Fondation pour le logement des défavorisés (FPLD), 5 000 décès sont imputables à la chaleur rien que pour l'année 2024, et la grande majorité à des lieux d'habitation.Une proposition de loi transpartisane, présentée par des députés Ensemble pour la République, écologistes, socialistes et La France insoumise, doit être déposée dans les prochains jours pour lutter contre ce fléau.Parallèlement, dans de nombreux territoires, des dispositifs sont déployés pour informer et lutter contre la prolifération du moustique-tigre, qui colonise de plus en plus de départements et peut transmettre la dengue, le virus Zika ou le chikungunya… Des maladies qui, jusqu'alors, ne pouvaient pas être attrapées sous nos latitudes. Ainsi, en 2024, 83 personnes ont été contaminées par la dengue dans l'Hexagone sans même avoir voyagé à l'étranger.LES EXPERTS :- Nicolas BERROD - Journaliste service Futurs, santé-médecine et climat - Le Parisien-Aujourd'hui en France- Stéphanie DURAFFOURD - Porte-parole d'Assurland.com- Amélie MOUGEY - Directrice de la rédaction - Reporterre- Gaël MUSQUET - Spécialiste de la prévention des catastrophes naturelles

Em sessão do Congresso Nacional nesta terça-feira, 17, parlamentares votaram e derrubaram 12 vetos do presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT). Na prática, isso faz com que os itens excluídos pelo presidente sejam recuperadas e passem a ter força de lei. Entre os vetos com itens derrubados, estão o que negava indenização para crianças com microcefalia, vítimas do Zika vírus, cujo projeto foi vetado integralmente por Lula. Outro veto derrubado pelos congressistas havia barrado a criação da Taxa de Avaliação e de Registro para agrotóxicos. "Foi uma derrota assustadora, o Governo está perdido e ilhado em meio à oposição no Congresso. E a gente não vê o apoio, cadê a base aliada, o próprio PT e a esquerda? Estão todos abandonando o barco do governo Lula. São vetos também contra a população porque custam caríssimo. Ontem foi um dia dramático para o País e há uma passividade da sociedade em conter essa escalada do Congresso, que só pensa nele próprio. Tem mais 30 vetos que o Congresso deixou na gaveta para continuar pressionando - agora o Legislativo também deixa o Governo em banho-maria", diz Cantanhêde.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How To Kick the Snooze Button Habit:Waking up several times interrupts and fragments sleep, which means you'll cycle back and forth between light, non restorative sleep and being awake, which isn't restful.It can leave you feeling tired and groggy when you finally get out of bed.It reinforces bad sleep habitsOn top of not feeling rested, alert and at your best, the sleep expert points out that consistently not getting enough sleep can raise the risk of weight gain, cardiovascular disorders, metabolic disorders and even dementia.Fortunately, you can break the sleep-snooze cycle by:Making sure you're getting enough sleep to feel truly rested, which is between seven and eight hours a night for most folks.Sticking to a consistent sleep schedule, which Auckley notes is easier if you time to rise to when your internal body clock starts to wake you up.In the morning, try to resist hitting snooze and get up as soon as your alarm goes off.Getting morning light exposure as soon as possible when you wake up, which helps keep your internal clock in sync and improves alertness.Have a positive morning ritual to look forward to, whether it's enjoying freshly made coffee on your porch or catching up on sports scores.Things You Are Still Wasting Your Money On:ATM FeesIn 2025, paying ATM fees is almost a fool's errand. With so many online banks offering free ATM withdrawals and brick-and-mortar banks offering a large network of free ATMs or ATM fee reimbursement, paying several dollars a month is seemingly avoidable. Simply put, there's no reason to waste money on fees just to access your own cash so even if it takes planning ahead, make sure you omit this expense.Bottled WaterShockingly, people continue to spend money on bottled water, even given both the financial and environmental downfalls. If you don't trust your tap water, even the cost of installing a filter or having one in your fridge can make it worth your money in the long run. Stop paying for something you can essentially get for free and invest in a quality reusable water bottle for when you're on the go.Brand-Name MedicationsUnless you're specifically advised by your doctor, opting for brand-name medications over their generic counterparts is a pointless expenditure. Generic drugs have the same active ingredients and undergo the same quality control as their branded counterparts. Switching to generics can save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars annually without compromising on health.Cable TV SubscriptionsThe world has moved on from traditional cable television, but many are still holding onto it — along with its hefty bill. Streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+ offer customizable viewing options for a fraction of the price and even bundling options. If you're still paying for a bloated cable package, it's time to cut the cord and switch to more budget-friendly entertainment options.Extended WarrantiesRetailers love to upsell extended warranties, but the truth is, they're seldom worth it. Most products are built to last for at least the length of their original warranty, and by the time they break, chances are you'd be looking to upgrade anyway. Instead of shelling out for extended warranties, set aside a small emergency fund for when things really go wrong.Fast FashionCheap, trendy clothing may seem like a good deal, but fast fashion is a money pit. These clothes are usually poorly made and fall apart after just a few wears, forcing you to constantly replenish your wardrobe in a never-ending cycle for your closet and nearest landfill. Instead, invest in quality, timeless pieces that last longer. You'll not only save money but also reduce your environmental footprint.Premium Gas for Non-Luxury CarsUnless your car specifically requires premium gasoline, you're throwing money away by filling up with it, especially when gas prices are already so high. Modern engines are designed to run efficiently on regular unleaded gas, and using premium won't give you any added benefits in performance. Stick to regular gas and watch your fuel expenses drop in what you pay at the pump.Overpriced Online Shopping on AmazonName-brand phone chargers, headphones, and other items can cost up to three times as much on Amazon when compared to other retailers or the product's own website. Check reviews before you add something to your cart as many will let you know if it's worth the cost. Don't be afraid to shop around, as varying sticker prices could shock you.Unused Gym MembershipsIn 2025, no matter your fitness resolutions, there's no reason to pay for a gym membership you're not using. With the explosion of online workout platforms, free YouTube fitness channels, and affordable apps, staying in shape no longer requires an expensive gym pass, particularly if you don't go regularly. If you're still paying for a membership you rarely use, it's time to cancel and explore the world of free digital fitness.What ER Doctors Bring On Vacation:Anti-nausea medication - “Always pack Zofran, just in case,” said Dr. Cedric Dark, associate professor of emergency medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. “The feeling of nausea and vomiting is one of the most hated things you could ever imagine and there's nothing over-the-counter that is that helpful.” Zofran is only available by prescription, but it dissolves under your tongue, so it works even when you can't really keep anything down.A bug zapper - Dr. Dark says standalone mosquito traps or a mosquito zapper racquet like the one he uses are must-haves for traveling somewhere tropical, where the insects can carry serious diseases like West Nile virus, Zika virus and dengue fever.Tweezers - They're a fix for the far more simple, but common problem of splinters, and that's why tweezers are a travel essential for Dr. Joy Crook, associate professor of clinical emergency medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.Compression socks - The CDC warns that traveling for more than four hours by air, car or bus raises the risk of developing blood clots, but wearing compression socks can help lower that risk. That's why they're a go-to for Dr. Erin Muckey, associate professor of emergency medicine at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School.A portable charger - Dr. Eric Adkins, an emergency medicine physician at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, points out that you can't call for help or look up where the nearest pharmacy or hospital is with a dead phone battery, so he packs a portable charger.A carbon monoxide detector - Dr. Crook says this is a recent addition to her travel bag, since several stories of travelers dying from carbon monoxide poisoning have happened this year alone.Melatonin - Not sleeping well can weaken the immune system, which can make you more likely to get sick, but melatonin supplements can help “reset your internal clock,” according to Adkins, so you can snooze.Second Date Update: Dalia and Reggie go to the Mountain Winery to see Chris Isaak. She loved every minute. He has disappeared...was it her dancing?

As urbanization continues to rise, so does the prevalence of pests, particularly mosquitoes, which can disrupt outdoor activities and pose health risks. Traditional methods of mosquito control, such as chemical sprays and electric zappers, often fall short in effectiveness and can have detrimental effects on the environment. In response to this growing concern, innovative solutions are emerging, one of which is the eco-friendly mosquito trap developed by companies like Mosqitter.The Need for Eco-Friendly SolutionsMosquitoes are not just a nuisance; they are vectors for various diseases, including West Nile virus, Zika virus, and malaria. Conventional methods of mosquito control often involve the use of harmful chemicals that can contaminate the environment and pose risks to human health and wildlife. As awareness of environmental issues grows, there is an increasing demand for sustainable alternatives that effectively manage mosquito populations without compromising ecological integrity.The Mosqitter Mini: A Game-ChangerAt the forefront of this eco-friendly approach is the Mosqitter Mini, a product developed by the female-founded tech company Mosqitter. The company, launched in 2020, announced the Mosqitter Mini - a new trap that is designed specifically for residential use, targeting smaller outdoor spaces like patios and balconies. Unlike its predecessor, the Mosqitter Grand, which caters to larger areas, the Mini is a more accessible and affordable solution for homeowners seeking to reclaim their outdoor spaces.With a retail price of $200, the Mosqitter Mini offers a significant cost advantage over traditional mosquito control methods, which can often exceed $2,000. This affordability, combined with a sleek design that fits seamlessly into various environments, makes it an attractive option for consumers. Moreover, for a limited time, preorders can enjoy a promotional discount, further promoting accessibility to this innovative technology.How Eco-Friendly Traps WorkThe Mosqitter Mini operates on a unique principle: it traps mosquitoes rather than killing them indiscriminately. This approach is grounded in understanding mosquito behavior, particularly the attraction of female mosquitoes, which are the ones that bite. By creating a trap that mimics the conditions attractive to these pests, the Mosqitter Mini effectively draws them in, reducing their population without resorting to harmful chemicals.This methodology not only minimizes the environmental impact but also aligns with the growing consumer preference for products that are safe for both humans and the ecosystem. By utilizing eco-friendly materials and sustainable practices in its design and production, Mosqitter demonstrates a commitment to environmental stewardship while providing a practical solution to a common problem.The Broader Impact on the CommunityBeyond individual benefits, the introduction of eco-friendly mosquito traps like the Mosqitter Mini contributes to a larger movement towards sustainable living.

This week we discuss vectors in a hotter world.   Vector-borne diseases, which are transmitted by hematophagous arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, and sandflies, pose a significant burden on global public health. These diseases disproportionately affect populations in tropical and subtropical regions, where environmental conditions favor the survival and proliferation of vectors. Given that vectors are ectothermic organisms, their life cycles, reproduction, survival rates, and geographic distribution are heavily influenced by climate variables such as temperature, rainfall, and humidity. Consequently, changes in climate patterns can have profound effects on the transmission dynamics of vector-borne diseases, altering their geographic spread and intensity. Rising global temperatures have led to the expansion of vector habitats into previously unsuitable regions, including temperate zones. Warmer climates accelerate the development of many vectors and pathogens, reducing the extrinsic incubation period of viruses such as dengue, Zika, and chikungunya. Additionally, increased temperatures can extend the breeding season of mosquitoes like Aedes aegypti and Anopheles species, enhancing their capacity to transmit diseases such as malaria. Conversely, extreme heat events may reduce vector survival in some regions, leading to localized declines in transmission. ​Changes in precipitation patterns also play a crucial role in shaping vector distribution. Heavy rainfall events can create new breeding sites for mosquitoes by increasing the availability of stagnant water, while drought conditions may drive vectors closer to human settlements in search of water sources. In particular, shifts in rainfall patterns have been linked to outbreaks of malaria, dengue, and West Nile virus in various parts of the world. Increased humidity can further facilitate the survival of certain pathogens within vectors, enhancing their ability to transmit infections. Beyond climate variables, other anthropogenic factors contribute to the spread of vector-borne diseases. Land use changes, such as deforestation and urbanization, have disrupted natural ecosystems, bringing vectors and humans into closer contact. For example, deforestation in the Amazon has been associated with increased malaria transmission due to the creation of new breeding sites for Anopheles mosquitoes. Similarly, expanding urban populations with inadequate water management systems provide ideal conditions for the proliferation of Aedes mosquitoes, driving the rise in dengue and chikungunya cases. Globalization and human mobility further compound the issue by facilitating the movement of infected individuals and vectors across borders. Increased travel and trade have contributed to the introduction and establishment of vector-borne diseases in regions where they were previously rare. For instance, the spread of Aedes albopictus, a competent vector for dengue and chikungunya, has been linked to international trade in used tires and lucky bamboo plants, which serve as breeding grounds during transport. The multifaceted relationship between climate change and vector-borne diseases presents a challenge for public health interventions. While climate factors influence vector dynamics, their impact is often modulated by socio-economic conditions, infrastructure, and public health responses. To mitigate the growing threat of vector-borne diseases, an integrated approach is necessary—combining climate adaptation strategies, vector control measures, surveillance programs, and community engagement. Recent research underscores the importance of predictive modeling to anticipate outbreaks and inform public health policies. Advances in remote sensing, artificial intelligence, and climate modeling are enabling researchers to identify high-risk areas and implement targeted interventions. Strengthening early warning systems and investing in sustainable vector control strategies, such as genetically modified mosquitoes and Wolbachia-infected mosquito programs, offer promising avenues for reducing disease transmission. In conclusion, while climate change is reshaping the global landscape of vector-borne diseases, its effects are complex and intertwined with other environmental and societal factors. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for developing proactive strategies to mitigate the risks associated with the redistribution of vectors and the spread of diseases worldwide. By integrating climate science, epidemiology, and public health measures, we can better prepare for emerging threats and protect vulnerable populations from the growing impact of vector-borne diseases.  

Dr. Dawn Wesson, Associate Professor at Tulane University's School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, joins John to explore how climate change is expanding the range of vector-borne diseases. With decades of experience studying mosquito-borne viruses like West Nile and Zika, Dawn explains how rising temperatures and human movement are accelerating the northward expansion of tropical diseases. She also discusses innovative control strategies, including biological methods and emerging technologies that could help reduce disease transmission in a warming world.

In this episode, Dr. Anthony Fauci joins A'ndre for an in-depth conversation about his decades-long career in public health and his experiences leading the U.S. response to some of the world's most pressing infectious disease challenges. Dr. Fauci reflects on his early work during the HIV/AIDS crisis, the evolution of treatments that saved millions of lives, and his role in launching PEPFAR, one of the most significant global health initiatives in history. He  discusses his leadership at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), navigating crises such as Ebola, Zika, H1N1, anthrax, and COVID-19, while working alongside multiple U.S. presidents to shape national and global health policies.Beyond his career in government, Dr. Fauci shares his thoughts on the intersection of public health and national security, the growing challenges of vaccine skepticism and misinformation, and the vital role of institutions like the NIH and CDC in protecting public health. He also highlights the major health threats that remain overlooked in mainstream discourse. Now a professor at Georgetown University, Dr. Fauci reflects on his transition to academia and the importance of training the next generation of medical leaders in an era of evolving global health challenges.You can purchase his recent memoir, On Call, here.

We speak with Emeka Iloegbu, a DrPH student and global health leader with over 15 years of experience in tackling infectious diseases and strengthening health systems. From his early days volunteering with the Red Cross in New York City to playing critical roles in pandemic responses for H1N1, Zika, Ebola, COVID-19, and monkeypox, Emeka has worked at the intersection of laboratory science, public health, and policy. As an assistant professor at CUNY and a United Nations representative, he is engaged in HIV research, antimicrobial resistance, and the integration of molecular diagnostics into public health strategies. He discusses his transition from analyzing cells under a microscope at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital to influencing policy decisions at the UN and Department of Health, emphasizing the importance of adaptive leadership, community-based surveillance, and strengthening global health infrastructure. We also dive into his research in implementation science, his role in advancing sickle cell disease interventions, and how he is using his vast experience to bridge the gap between scientific discovery and real-world impact.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis speaks with Dr. Ryan Maves, an infectious disease physician, about dengue fever, a significant tropical disease. They discuss the epidemiology, clinical presentation, management, and prevention strategies for dengue, emphasizing the importance of recognizing warning signs and providing supportive care. Dr. Maves shares insights from his extensive experience in tropical medicine, particularly during his time in the Navy and in Peru, where he conducted research on dengue and other vector-borne diseases. The conversation highlights the increasing relevance of dengue in both civilian and military contexts, especially in light of climate change and urbanization. Takeaways Dengue fever is part of the flavivirus family, which includes Zika and chikungunya. The disease is primarily transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which thrives in urban areas. Dengue can cause severe morbidity, particularly in non-endemic populations. Management of dengue is largely supportive, with a focus on fluid resuscitation. Warning signs of severe dengue include persistent vomiting, abdominal pain, and altered mental status. Preventive measures include using insect repellent and controlling standing water. Dengue is endemic in many tropical regions, including parts of Latin America and Southeast Asia. Vaccines for dengue exist but are not widely available for adults. Dengue can present with a wide spectrum of symptoms, making diagnosis challenging. Public health strategies are crucial in controlling dengue outbreaks.

In 2016, the WHO predicted millions of cases of Zika in America and sparked global panic when the virus was connected to newborn microcephaly – a birth defect causing smaller head size and impaired brain development. But Dr. Randy Bock says Zika was just another pandemic of panic. The physician alleges that no clinical testing existed when cases were first reported and diagnoses relied on simple questionnaires. When proper testing was later implemented, no significant link between Zika and microcephaly was found – which he says is evidence that institutional interests were the real driving force behind the health scare. Dr. Randy Bock is a physician and author. A Yale graduate with a B.S. in Chemistry and Physics, he earned his M.D. from the University of Rochester. Dr. Bock authored “Overturning Zika” and has published extensive research on pandemic response and healthcare innovation.

In 2020, Utah mom & former teacher Brianne Dressen wanted to help her community through the pandemic, so she joined a clinical trial of AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine – one of the first in the USA. But afterward, she says she developed such severe side effects, she began planning her own suicide to escape the “constant agony.” Within hours of beginning the trial, Brianne experienced adverse reactions including “blurred vision, a headache, ringing ears and vomiting” that worsened and required multiple hospitalizations. Now grappling with enormous medical expenses, Dressen is suing the pharma giant after it allegedly offered her a single payment of $1,243.30 in compensation despite her medical costs exceeding $400,000. Brianne's case is covered in the upcoming book “Worth a Shot?: Secrets of the Clinical Trial Participant Who Inspired a Global Movement” available at https://amzn.to/4eEyykA Aaron Siri is Brianna Dressen's attorney.
