Episode 335: Navigating Public Information Campaigns and Crisis Comms with Cyndee Woolley Episode Summary In this episode of That Solo Life, hosts Karen Swim, APR, and Michelle Kane are joined by Cyndee Woolley, MBA, APR, President and Founder of C2 Communications. Together, they dive deep into the nuanced world of public information campaigns and crisis communications for local communities. While national headlines often grab the most attention, Cyndee explains why decisions made at county commission meetings and in local municipalities often have a more direct impact on our daily lives. Cyndee shares her extensive experience working with organizations like Waste Management and mosquito control districts to turn dry, often misunderstood topics into engaging community stories. From "bear-resistant carts" to turning landfill gas into energy, she illustrates how strategic messaging can cut through the clutter. The conversation also tackles the critical importance of crisis communications for small businesses and local leaders. Cyndee offers candid advice on why "owning it" and apologizing is often the best strategy when trust is broken, and why every PR pro needs to pass the "Mom Test" before releasing a statement. Whether you are a solo PR pro looking to better serve local clients or a communicator interested in the power of community engagement, this episode is packed with actionable insights on building trust and activating audiences. Episode Highlights [02:01] Public Information Campaigns: Cyndee discusses the challenges of getting communities to understand government services and how local decisions impact daily life more than national ones. [03:38] The Recycling Reality: Insight into the misinformation surrounding recycling and how tours and transparency can change public perception. [06:39] Creative Storytelling: How Cyndee used "bear-resistant carts" and landfill gas-to-energy stories to engage the public in waste management topics. [08:10] Crisis Communications for Small Business: Why even small organizations need a plan for when—not if—a crisis occurs, from employee misconduct to leadership failures. [12:12] The Power of the Apology: A look at real-world examples where refusing to apologize prolonged a crisis, versus how owning mistakes can help rebuild trust. [14:51] The "Mom Test": A simple but powerful metric for decision-making in crisis management—would your mom be proud of the action you are taking?

Ērģelniece un Rēzeknes goda pilsone Iveta Apkalna, kura ir Elbas filharmonijas goda ērģelniece, sestdien, 21. februārī, Ventspils koncertzālē ar koncertu atvērs albumu "Perts. Vasks", kuru viņa ierakstīja šovasar. Kultūras rondo tiekamies ar Ivetu Apkalnu. "2003. gadā, ierakstot savu pirmo disku, programmā bija Pētera Vaska "Viatore", kas ir viens no skaņdarbiem, ko var klausīties arī šajā albumā. Viatore tulkojumā nozīmē ceļinieks, ceļotājs. Es patiešām tāda arī jūtos. Es jūtos kā ceļiniece šobrīd savā dzīvē, noejot jau dažus posmus, uz kuriem varu atskatīties, kā padarītie, paveiktiem. Uz tādiem, uz ko es varu raudzīties, tos analizējot. Jo vairāk raugies un analizē, jo vairāk parādās jautājumi," stāstu par ierakstu aizsāk Iveta Apkalna. "Šie abi jubilāri - Arvo Perts un Pēteris Vasks - un viņu mūzika gan labā nozīmē provocē mani kā Ivetu, arī kā ērģelnieci, kā mākslinieci, kā sievieti uzdot sev šos jautājumus. Šajā mūzika es rodu arī daudz atbildes. Bet ceļš ir garš." "Jāatzīst, ka viens no centrālajiem skaņdarbiem, Arvo Perta "Spiegel im Spiegel" arī atspoguļo to, kā jūtos šobrīd un ko vēlos spoguļot šajā albumā, šajā mūzikā," turpina Iveta Apkalna. "Šo mūziku spēlējot, kura daudziem šķiet vienkārša, bet patiesībā paģēr nolikt malā savu ego, savu solistisko ego, un doties lielā sarunā pašam ar sevi."

In today’s episode of the Peskies Pest Control Podcast, Michael and Travis discuss mosquito treatment and prevention for your Birmingham, Alabama property! Podcast Transcript: Michael Wienecke Hey. So here today on the Peskies Pest Control Podcast, we are talking about mosquitoes, I feel like spring is in the air. I woke up for the last couple of days with my nose a little snotty and sniffly, and it’s just getting hot. Travis? Travis McGowin Don’t even I’m not ready. No, I’m not I refuse to give up winter. You know, no matter how brutal it actually was at times over the last couple of weeks, I’m still holding on to hope that there’s some kind of residual that’s going to come back and, you know, actually show itself again. Because I, spring and summer are not my most favorite times of the year. Michael Wienecke I am feeling that right now. I was taking my kids to school this morning, and I just, it just feels a little humid out, a little too humid for what it what it should be. Travis McGowin For February. Yes. Michael Wienecke Yes, yes. So you said we were, I know we were talking earlier. You said you saw some mosquitoes yesterday already. Travis McGowin Right, right. I had a customer whose house I went to shortly after four o’clock yesterday afternoon. And as I was getting my products ready and my sprayers to go treat their house, yes, I had mosquitoes buzzing around my head already. And like I said, it’s only February. Michael Wienecke Well, as we’ve seen them, we’ve seen them in December. You know, I’ve been deer hunting before and seen them in a climber so, you know, right there in December, so perfect. I mean, even even in February. Let’s talk about some ways to just help customers, not get rid of them, but just stop them from from being so so bad at their property, far as you know, getting the water, you know, diverted away from their house, like all that kind of stuff. Travis McGowin Right, so, you know, for those that may or may not know, mosquitoes breed in standing, stagnant water. So they, you know, they land on top of the surface of the water surface. Tension holds them so they don’t sink, and they basically deposit their eggs onto the stagnant water. And it can be, you know, as much water as inside of a tire that’s been left there and filled up with water from rain for a while, or it can be as little water as a cap full from, you know, a soda bottle. It doesn’t take a whole lot of water for them to actually be able to reproduce and so it really takes a lot of diligence on part of the customer, a lot of effort on part of the customer to make sure that they do not have standing water sources in their yard, and you and I have both seen it before, these things can range anywhere from, like I said, tires to just trash that’s holding water. Got a lot of customers that live around the lake that cover their boats or their jet skis with tarps. Yeah, the tarps just completely hold the water, and they don’t go drain the water off after a rain, and it just collects and then leaf litter, and that leaf debris that gets in there just makes it even more attractive for them. For a stagnant source, just five gallon buckets full of rain water, rain barrels. People that have rain barrels that collect water from their gutters. Clogged gutters. That’s another big one. Leaf litter and gutters clogs it and it holds water. You know. Just think about it, if you had a gutter on the edge of your porch where you like to go and enjoy yourself and sit out in the evenings or what have you, and you’ve got standing water because it’s not draining Well, the mosquitoes are just breeding right there and then coming down and eating you alive. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Like you mentioned earlier, incomplete drainage in yards. Maybe it’s also an area that not only does it not drain, but it doesn’t get a lot of sunlight, so it never dries out. French drains in yards where you’ve got the drain in the ground, some of those don’t empty all the way, and you just, I mean, you just be creating the next breed of mosquitoes coming through your property. Michael Wienecke Well, that’s what I was going to talk about, hidden, hidden places that people wouldn’t think about. I mean, we’ve seen problem accounts, or, you know, what we’d consider a problem account, where they have a bunch of basins in their yard, all that water is going in there, and it’s hidden. You don’t see all the water that’s just caught in that basin, where it’s, you know, a slow drain and all that kind of stuff. I’ve never understood why they did that. I don’t know why it wouldn’t just be a faster drain, to keep it from getting clogged, I guess. Travis McGowin Yeah, there’s, there’s just so many places that water can be, water can stay and be held in people’s property, and a lot of them can be just overlooked. You know, we’ve got some storage buildings in my yard. I don’t go behind them very often. And and so if I were to stick a bucket back there, even a bucket flipped over that will hold water on the bottom of the bucket that’s sitting up in the air. I mean, that’s enough water to breed hundreds and hundreds of mosquitoes and to really cause a problem, and to really make control efforts a little more challenging, Michael Wienecke 100%. @ell, and I’m glad you said the control. So let’s talk about one way that we, you know, help with controlling the water that we can’t control. So we’re flipping over buckets. We’re moving over. You know, I always bird bass need to be changed out. I would say, you know, weekly, every two weeks, something like that, so it doesn’t build up a stagnant pool. But the control with that IGR is really key on the drains in the yard, such such as that matter of getting rid of that problem, because you can’t control that. Travis McGowin Right, And for those watching listening, IGR stands for “insect growth regulator”, so we use a mixture that has a couple of different active ingredient products in there. And what that IGR does is it is a long term game in terms of mosquito control. So picture, you have a technician come to your house. They treat your lawn and landscape areas with a liquid mosquito treatment that’s got that IGR in it. And so let’s say, after that treatment is dry, the technicians gone, the mosquito lands on the underside of leaves that has this IGR on it. Well, not only is that mosquito now contaminated with that IGR, which is going to take an effect on that mosquito and slowly mess with it to where it can’t breed anymore, but then it’s going to go land on a water source, and it’s going to contaminate that water source too, so that other mosquitoes that touch it could be contacting the IGR, and then those mosquito larva that are already in the water, it should mess with their development, so that they don’t even develop all the way into a biting mosquito as they go and continue to develop. So it’s a great product, and it’s a great addition to a mosquito control program. Michael Wienecke Oh yeah, I’d say its a must have, because if you’re not controlling that, that life cycle, if you’re just killing the adult mosquitoes as they buzz around and get under this shaded area, these trees and, you know, decks and all that, then you’re only taking care of one half of it, or not even less than one half. Travis McGowin Right, and we’re, you know, not only were we applying the IGR in our mixture that we’re using along with an adult aside that’s going to kill mosquitoes on contact as well, but we’re also going back to those stagnant water sources our technicians actively are looking for those stagnant water sources. And yes, you know, you know how it is that there’s some times where those sources can’t be drained or dumped, or, you know, the water be removed so that they’re no longer a breeding site, especially when you talk about areas of a yard that hold a lot of water, that don’t drain properly, or don’t dry. So we also use another product called a larvicide. So Michael, elaborate for the listeners, about a larvicide. Michael Wienecke Yeah, so a larvicide. So you’re going to go around the property, and you’re looking for any areas that you cannot control the water flow, you know, like we said, if you see a bucket, we’re going to can flip that over a bird bath, we can change that out, but something that we can’t, such as a drain in your backyard, front yard, we’re going to put that larvicide in there. It’s good for 30 days. So any breeding mosquitoes that breed in that water, those eggs will never develop into a lot of mosquitoes. Travis McGowin Right, and so all these things are things that can be done on your property. But Michael, as I’m sure you’ve seen before, I and I can give an example, I had a customer who we were trying to do mosquito control at, and it was okay, but it wasn’t as great as it could be. And what we discovered is that the neighbor directly behind that customer’s property, who we weren’t treating, we didn’t have any mosquito service at that customer’s property behind them, they had an old above ground swimming pool. Michael Wienecke It’s always a swimming pool. Travis McGowin It is with about maybe, I would say, a foot or so, maybe a little more of water in it. And the water was a beautiful shade of green, with all types of leaf litter and trash and debris in it. And so, I mean, it was just a haven for these mosquitoes to breed in. And, you know, unfortunately, we can’t control what it is the neighbors doing. Michael Wienecke That’s true. So in terms of control, you know, we like to say an 85 I like to say an 85% to 95% reduction of mosquitoes is a win, because you can still have some mosquitoes, but you’re going to get rid of the majority of the mosquitoes and be. Able to enjoy that backyard. I mean, Travis, you treat your house. I treat my house. We’ve we’ve got some pretty good standing water issues. I know I do. I know in some areas where it rains in your house, you get some little bowl issues in the yard. So I would not, not treat my yard in the summertime. Travis McGowin Right, my kids get torn up by mosquitoes, if I don’t. But you know, that is the good thing about our mosquito control program, especially when you really factor in the use of that insect growth regulator. Like you said, 85% to 95% reduction is great. That’s huge, especially when you deal with some of the amount of mosquitoes that I’ve seen before. I mean, when you walk outside, you’re there for less than a minute, and you’ve got, you know, six, eight, ten, mosquitoes buzzing around your ankles and your feet before you even, you know, can take in the outside that you just walked out to, but that IGR is really great, because obviously mosquitoes fly. They can kind of go wherever they want to, but if they contact that IGR and then, let’s just say that the neighbor across the street has one tire sitting against a storage shed in their yard that’s collecting water that’s become this breeding site that they haven’t addressed, well now There’s that potential that that mosquito could spread that IGR to that breeding site and hopefully render it less effective, or completely ineffective for mosquito breeding, and in that way, kind of extend that treatment over somewhere where obviously we can’t go physically apply something. So it really is kind of a nice additive to put, to have in there, to try to help control because, I mean, you know, no matter how much mosquito control you can do there at the end of the day, like we said, they fly, so they’re not very heavy, so the wind can blow them to, I mean, they can be pushed around and all that too. So I don’t think anybody can really ever promise a 100% reduction in mosquitoes just because of the way that they are. However, I think it’s definitely reasonable to think 85 to 95% reduction for most of the properties we deal with. Michael Wienecke I think that, yeah, I think that’s great. And something that a lot of people miss, too, is gutters. I mean, over in Birmingham, Montgomery, we’ve got a lot of trees, a lot of trees, and over the winter, you know, some people do. Some people don’t get all the gutters cleaned out, or don’t even know that they’re they’re clogged and all that stagnant water. There’s really not a product in the world that’s going to take care of that. Travis McGowin Well, you know, not to, not even going to try to be hypocritical here, because I have two areas with with gutters. Oh, me too, down spouts on my my own awnings on my house, three areas, actually, and it is one of my least favorite chores in the world to get up there and clean them. So much so that, I mean, we even, we even had a rainstorm come in one day, and the gutters were so clogged and the downspouts were so slow at draining that the water ended up actually gushing over the side of the gutter and like bowing it. And just because of the weight of the water, it was starting to bow one of the little beams that holds my top of my porch, or owning up. Excuse me, my owning up. And so, yeah, I hate it that much, and I’ve tried to become a little bit more diligent about it, but it is. It’s really something that you need to stay on top of to make sure that there’s no breeding site up there, because it’s just not immediately in your thought process, because it’s not immediately in your view Michael Wienecke Well, and you can go off and that leads to termite damage on a pest control, it can lead to carpenter ant damage. It can lead to a lot of other issues besides just mosquitoes. Travis McGowin Yeah, absolutely. So it’s like that old saying, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. You know, you can, you can get a lot done by just being diligent and eliminating those water sources from around your property, you can get a lot done, and your family will thank you. Your neighbors will thank you. Don’t, don’t be that bad neighbor that’s got 25 tires with all water in them, you know, stacked up, and you’re breeding mosquitoes like, you know, be that good neighbor that’s helping the problem, because everybody wins, everybody benefits. I mean, mosquitoes are known to carry many different viruses that cause many different health hazards for you, for your pets. I mean, Zika virus, all those things you know, your pets can get heart worms. They get them from mosquito bites. So there’s just a lot of benefits from keeping these insects away from your property. Michael Wienecke Well, and didn’t we see some some? Was it encephalitis last year? Travis McGowin Yeah, I think it was going around. I mean, you know, some of the lesser known things that people you know might not be necessarily aware of, like I said, Zika virus, yellow fever, dengue, malaria, is a big one, especially in some of your overseas countries, West Nile virus, all of these things, like you said, encephalitis, and they all come from just a mosquito bite, and it’s a strong possibility that you know they could make you your family or your animals sick.

As a society, and as an industrial complex, we've made health complicated…and expensive. But, epidemiology suggests that what we need to do to achieve and maintain personal health is really quite simple. Dr. Tom Frieden returns to the show to talk about the second half of his book, The Formula for Your Health. Through extensive research and review of hundreds of epidemiological studies, he distills the findings down to six basic things we need to be doing in order to be healthy. Dr. Frieden acknowledges that there is nuance, but he also affirms that history is clear. There are other societies in the world that were and are far healthier than the US population, and NOT because they had wearables, packaged food, home massagers, or Pelotons.  Dr. Frieden is author of the book, The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own. He is also the founder and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives, a global health organization that accelerates action against the world’s deadliest health threats. Resolve to Save Lives has worked with governments and other partners in more than 60 countries to save millions of lives. Dr. Frieden previously served as director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and New York City Health Commissioner, where he led efforts that increased life expectancy by 3 years and helped end major health crises including the largest US outbreak of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, the 2014 West Africa Ebola epidemic, and responses to H1N1, Zika, and other threats.

The Men's EHF EURO 2026 begins next week and we're here with the first of our two big preview podcasts. Björn Pazen and Zika Bogdanovic join us to discuss the big storylines from Groups A, D and F. We discuss major medal candidates Germany and Iceland, where Spain and Hungary sit on the current pecking order and whether this is a golden opportunity for Switzerland and Faroe Islands to make a big breakthrough.

Randall Bock discusses the prevalence of misinformation and hierarchical biases in the scientific community, using examples like COVID-19, Zika, and peer review's limitations. He argues that current systems encourage conformity and lack rigorous validation, proposing a new model where scientific claims are evaluated similar to sports, incorporating transparency, prediction markets, and replication bounties. Bock emphasizes the need for open inquiry and structural changes to prevent entrenched scientific gatekeeping and improve overall research quality.00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction01:03 Critique of Dr. Fauci and Peter Hotez01:44 The Dual Nature of Science02:37 Science and Sports Analogies05:07 The Role of Peer Review in Science05:37 Zika and Misinformation08:20 Scientific Guilds and Their Impact12:26 Proposed Solutions for Scientific Integrity22:43 Historical Examples and Peer Review Critique27:43 Climate Science and Publication Challenges28:57 Payola and Scientific Authority30:21 Peter Hotez and Anti-Science Critique31:14 Fauci 1.0 vs. Fauci 2.032:10 The Soviet Influence on Science33:31 The Tenure Trap in Academia35:23 The Guild System in Science36:07 The Problem with Peer Review40:59 Proposing a New Scientific Framework42:26 The Role of Reputation in Science47:41 Challenges and Solutions in Open Science49:07 Final Thoughts and Future DirectionsPeer Review Is a Guild: https://substack.com/home/post/p-180649436How to Fix Science: https://dailysceptic.org/2025/12/12/how-to-fix-science/The Hidden Cost of Mental Health Parity: https://brownstone.org/articles/the-hidden-cost-of-mental-health-parity/

""Klasika" ir mans mīļākais radio. Vienmēr mašīnā klausos tikai divas radiostacijas, un viena no tām ir jūsu. Pat ja būtu uzaicināts mazgāt grīdas jūsu raidstacijas studijā, būtu atnācis jums palīdzēt! (..) "Klasika" ir tā, kas dzīvo pāri laikam: laiks iet, bet tā dzīvo un eksistē. Jo tā ir klasika. Vai tas ir džezs vai akadēmiska mūzika – tam nav nekādas nozīmes. (..) Ja gribi turēt savu dvēseli pie veselības, mūzika tam ir vislabākās zāles – tā ir Dieva māksla," ir pārliecināts viens no Latvijas viskolorītākajiem režisoriem AIKS KARAPETJANS, kura radošās darbības lauks ir gan opera un teātris, gan kino. Tomēr 8. janvārī viņš debitēs kāda vērienīga koncerta režisora ampluā. Proti, tieši viņš būs Latvijas Radio 3 "Klasika" 30. jubilejas koncerta režisors Latvijas Nacionālajā operā, un viņa veikumu varēsim redzēt ne tika Baltajā namā, bet arī Latvijas Televīzijas tiešraidē. Tomēr saruna rit arī par citām Aika radošajām iecerēm, un tādu nudien viņam netrūkst! Inga Saksone: Mūsu sarunas temats būs priecīgi notikumi, kas gaidāmi pēc Jaunā gada: saistīti gan ar "Klasiku", gan Balto namu. Bet sākumā gribēju jautāt par skolām, kurā esi mācījies: Latvijas Mākslas akadēmiju, Latvijas Kultūras akadēmiju un Parīzes kino skolu. Vai tās viena otru ir papildinājušas? Aiks Karapetjans: Noteikti papildinājušas, jo visas trīs iestādes ir ar savām tradīcijām. Nezinu, kā tagad, bet manos laikos, kad mācījos Mākslas akadēmijā – un tas bija ļoti, ļoti sen – tā tiešām vairāk bija klasiskā, akadēmiskā izglītība. Savukārt Kultūras akadēmija bija tāda dvēseles lieta – tur bija vairāk par kino. Ņemot vērā, ka tolaik vēl nebiju tādu tehnisku iespēju kā tagad – ka studenti var mācīties un veidot filmas, mēs bijām tāds kā eksperimentāls kurss. Tā tehniskā izglītība mums bija diezgan pašvaka, un tas bija viens no iemesliem, kāpēc aizbraucu uz Parīzi, jo tur bija tieši otrādi: tur par radošumu bija mazāk, bet vairāk – tieši par tehniskām lietām, un tur apguvu kinoizglītības tehnisko pusi. Visas trīs izglītības bija ļoti dažādas, neviena no tām neatkārtoja iepriekšējo, un tas man ļoti, ļoti palīdzēja. Mākslas akadēmijā tavs noslēdzošais darbs bija "Nāves tēma latviešu glezniecībā 19. gadsimta otrajā pusē un 20. gadsimta sākumā". Šī tēma patiešām bija tik ātri un viegli atrodama? Protams... (Smejoties nopūšas.)  Latviešiem to var atrast, ja? Rozentāla simbolisms, ko redzam viņa gleznās, ir viena lieta. Izteiksmīgākā ir viņa glezna "Nāve", kur pļavā sēž jauna sieviete ar zīdainīti klēpī un pie zīdainīša pieliekusies jauna, skaista sieviete baltā tērpā. Liekas – tāda smuka ainava, bet īstenībā tā kompozīcija ir par Nāvi, kas apmeklē bērnu. Bet ir, ir daudz. Pat kluso dabu var atrast ar galvaskausu, ko arī var interpretēt kā nāvi. Tas vienkārši ir jautājums par to, kāda ir semiotika – vairāk pētīju tieši to pusi. Vairs neatceros kādas detaļas, bet tā tēma atnāca pati, pat nezinu, kāpēc – man likās, ka tā ir interesanta tēma, kas varētu būt manam diplomdarbam. (..) Tolaik latviešu glezniecībā bija diezgan dinamiskas pārmaiņas. Ņemot vērā, cik Eiropa bija bagāta ar jauniem virzieniem, sevišķi glezniecībā, tas viss, protams, latviešu gleznotājus arī pārņēma savā varā. Valdīja eklektika: bija gan impresionisms, gan romantisms. Katrs izvēlējās pats savu ietekmes avotu. Līdz ar to nevar teikt, ka, piemēram, no tā līdz tam gadam latviešu glezniecībā bija tāds un tāds virziens. Nu, nebija tā, jo tas bija diezgan eklektisks un bagāts laiks ar pārmaiņām un dažādību. Savu ceļu kino iesāki ar kriminālfilmu, un "Piejūras klimata" raidījums oktobrī bija veltīts tieši kriminālfilmām ar dažādām pazīmēm un raksturiem. Sarunājās sarunājās kinokritiķe Dārta Ceriņa, režisors Jānis Ābele un producents Sergejs Timoņins. Raidījumā izskanēja jautājums, kādēļ režisori par savām debijas filmām tik ļoti bieži izvēlas tieši kriminālfilmu žanru. No kurienes tas rodas? Kāpēc tieši pirmā filma jātaisa par bandītiem, blēžiem? Krimiķi ar jokiem vai bez jokiem? Izskanēja arī varbūtība, ka jaunam režisoram veiksmīgāk ir pirmo filmu veidot kādā konkrētā žanrā, nevis pašam par sevi. Tā ir atbilde? Varbūt, bet ne manā gadījumā. Man tieši otrādi. Tikai pēc savas pirmās filmas pievērsos žanram. Un mana pirmā filma "Cilvēki tur" nebija gluži autobiogrāfiska. Stāsts bija par to, ko biju redzējis, dzirdējis un, protams, piefantazējis klāt. Filmas pamatā bija reāls stāsts. Tie, kas redzējuši šo filmu – realitātē tas notikums bija vēl briesmīgāks un šausmīgāks, nekā filmā. Bet par tām kriminālfilmām… Manuprāt, viens no iemesliem ir tas, ka tā ir brīva zona. Mēs visi – sevišķi jaunībā – augam un ietekmējamies tieši no šī žanra filmām, turklāt ne tikai režisori Latvijā, bet arī pasaulē. Tarantīno, Skorsēze… Varbūt vienīgi Spīlbergs to darījis mazāk nekā citi. Bet vienalga – tas ir žanrs, kas dod tev iespēju izstāstīt ļoti spilgtu, intensīvu un skatītājam interesantu pasauli, kurā ir pilnīgi citi likumi! Protams, mums gribas redzēt un uzzināt vairāk par to, kā cilvēki ignorē sabiedrības normas un dzīvo pēc saviem likumiem. Viņi kaut kādā ziņā ir dumpinieki – saceļas pret normām un netaisnību. Tieši tā, kā Dārta Ceriņa šajā raidījumā stāstīja – tas arī ir par to. Ja cilvēks nevar sasniegt taisnību saskaņā ar likumu, viņš pats pārkāpj likumu, lai taisnību sasniegtu. Un principā visi stāsti ir par to. Cik mēs gribam tos redzēt vai cik varbūt atsaucīgi ir skatītāji uz šo žanru, uz šo tēmu? Tas ir labs jautājums – par atsaucību. Jo tas, ka skatītājiem pirms filmas noskatīšanās tiek solīts, ka tur būs kaut kas tāds, kas piesaistīs uzmanību, ka varoņi pārkāps robežas – tas  uzreiz ir interesanti. Bet mūsu gadījumā, man liekas, Latvijā skatītājam ar ļoti retiem izņēmumiem interesē savi stāsti – lokāli stāsti. Tāpēc arī mums tik ļoti populāras ir patriotiskās filmas, kur skatītājs emocionāli jūtas ļoti komfortabli, jo viņš redz un dzird to, ko viņš grib redzēt un dzirdēt. Neko vairāk. Tāpēc man ir prieks par Oskara Rupenheita filmas lielajiem panākumiem, jo viņš ir uztaisījis diezgan skarbu filmu par 90. gadiem, un esmu labā ziņā pārsteigts, ka skatītājiem patiesi gribējās redzēt tādu filmu, jo biju diezgan skeptisks par to, ka mūsdienās kāds aizies skatīties filmu par 90. gadu bandītiem. Es runāju par filmu "Tumšzilais evaņģēlijs". Tas ir kvalitatīvs darbs, un man prieks, ka šis darbs kļuva par tādu hitu. Kriminālas iezīmes var atrast arī operās, jo ļoti reti tās noslēdzas labi. Bieži atrodami  sižeta pavērsieni, pie kuriem var pieķerties. Tevis veidotajā "Seviļas bārddzinī" bija ļoti laba atsauce uz Franču revolūcijas laiku. Tāpat arī "Hofmaņa stāstos" tā sēņu lietošana arī pārāk legāla tomēr nebija. Kas būs Pjetro Maskanji "Zemnieka godā" un Rudžjēro Leonkavallo "Pajaci" izrādēs, kas tavā režijā būs skatāmas pēc Jaunā gada? Nestāstīšu sīki par to, ko darīsim, bet pamatā tas būs stāsts par lietām, kas mūsdienās skatītājam, iespējams, būs mazliet nesaprotamas, sevišķi mūsu reģionā. Tas ir par atriebību, par godu, par to, ko sabiedrība domā, piemēram, par mani vai par manu sievu. Līdz ar to stāsts ir vairāk par cīņu par savu reputāciju. Cilvēki tādēļ ir gatavi darīt briesmīgas lietas – nogalināt, melot, zagt un tā tālāk. Mūsu gadījumā gribam to visu izveidot mūsu skatītāju sirdīm mazliet tuvāku, lai tas nav par vendetu – jo atriebības tēma ir diezgan primitīvs dramaturģijas gājiens. Man tā kā gribas uztaisīt izrādi drīzāk par varoni, kurš kļūs par pagātnes spoku pārējiem varoņiem. Un kaut kādā ziņā viņš viņus soda par viņu pagātnes grēkiem. Tu domā, ka atriebība ir vienkārši citas kultūras fenomens, ko mums grūti saprast? Saprast var, bet noticēt, uz ko cilvēki ir spējīgi tās dēļ, domāju, ir grūti. Protams, mums atriebības sajūta ir dabiska, un tā ir normāla lieta. Bet ne visi ir gatavi pārkāpt kādus morāles principus vai pat likumu tikai atriebības dēļ. Teiksim, mana sieva bučojas ar citu vīrieti – aiziešu un nogalināšu abus! Noticēt un līdzpārdzīvot tādam stāstam mūsdienās ir diezgan grūti. Tāpēc mans uzdevums kā režisoram ir izdarīt tā, lai skatītājs varētu līdzpārdzīvot, atrast vēl kaut kādu stīgu, kas palīdzētu skatītājam just līdzi vai vismaz noticēt tam visam. Kaut gan tāda izsmalcināta atriebība mūsdienās pastāv diezgan bieži. Ne tieša, bet izsmalcināta. Un šķiet, ka cilvēki to tīri labprāt pielieto. Es ceru, ka ar izsmalcinātību tu nedomā slepkavību! (Smejas.)  Protams, nē! Drīzāk par morālo, statusa atriebību.  Dramaturģiski tas ir ļoti viegli – iedot varonim šādu motivāciju kaut ko darīt, pārkāpt kaut kādas robežas. Bet tieša atriebība, manuprāt, nav labs gājiens, jo tas ir ļoti viegls ceļš. Motivācija varbūt ir, bet pamatojuma reizēm trūkst. Starp citu, Leonkavallo "Pajaci" tavā režijā bija pirms sešiem gadiem. Šis būs cits stāsts?  "Pajaci" paliks tāds pats. Vienkārši toreiz pirmajā daļā bija nevis Maskanji "Zemnieka gods", jo Zigmars Liepiņš vēlējās eksperimentēt, un mēs taisījām Montemeci operu "Burvestība". Ņemot vērā, ka tas bija pirmais šīs operas iestudējums vispār vēsturē, skaidrs, ka atrast dziedātājus, kas atbrauktu un to nodziedātu, bija diezgan liels izaicinājums, kas beidzās ne ar ko, un līdz ar to šo izrādi noņēma no repertuāra. Bet tagad Sandis Voldiņš grib atjaunot "Pajaci" un salikt kopā klasiskajā formātā ar "Zemnieka godu" pirmajā daļā. Tā ka man principā būs jāatjauno "Pajaci" un pilnīgi no jauna jāiestudē "Zemnieka gods". Vai mūzika palīdz atrast tos pagrieziena punktus sižetā? Jā, mūziku klausos ļoti daudz. Manuprāt, ar mūziku režisoram jāstrādā ne mazāk kā ar stāstu. Un ar mūziku ir arī tā: vai nu tu cīnies ar to, vai to pieņem tādu, kāda tā ir, un vienkārši pieliec klāt kādus vizuālus elementus, kas palīdzēs skatītājam gan skatīties, gan klausīties. Un mans uzdevums tāds vienmēr ir bijis, lai abas divas lietas – tas, ko viņi dzird un tas, redz, netraucē viena otrai. Var taisīt kaut ko pilnīgi citu vizuāli, protams, kaut ko negaidītu, bet ir svarīgi, lai tas dotu kaut ko mūzikai. (..) Šobrīd vairāk domāju par to, kā izcelt ļoti "Zemnieka goda" mūziku, ka ir ārkārtīgi salda, melodiska itāļu mūzika. Tagad daudz  skatos itāļu filmas no 50., 60. gadiem – ne tikai neoreālismu, bet arī komēdijas ar Marčello Mastrojāni, piemēram. Tur būs ļoti daudz referenču no kino. Mēs gribam uztaisīt tādu pēckara laika Itāliju, Dino Rīzi vai agrīnā Fellīni komēdijas virzienā. Un "Pajaci" būtu loģisks turpinājums ar tiem pašiem varoņiem, taču pēc 20 vai 30 gadiem, kad viņi nonākuši pansionātā... Tātad periods pēc kara un – astoņdesmitie gadi. Kādā stadijā šobrīd ir iestudējums? Sāksim mēģināt janvārī. Es tagad gatavojos – izpildu mājasdarbus... Bet tagad man tomēr ir lūgums mesties atpakaļ kino pasaulē un doties uz Parīzi, un raidījumā Piejūras klimats, kas izskanēs 13. decembrī, ir arī kāds fragments tieši par filmu skatīšanos Parīzē. Alise Zariņa stāsta par savu pieredzi Parīzē, un raidījuma dalībnieki spriež, ja reakciju, kādu var novērot Francijā, varētu redzēt arī kinoteātros Rīgā. Es teiktu, ka operā vai teātros nekad nekliegs. Atceros, Francijā manis veidotās operas "Karmena" pirmizrādē puse no auditorijas kliedza "Bū!", bet otra puse kliedza "Bravo!" Bija ļoti dīvaina sajūta. Vēl pirms mēģinājuma mani direktore brīdināja: "Aik, atceries, ka nebūs tev tikai aplausi, bet būs arī "Bū!" Šeit ir tāda tradīcija, sevišķi ar "Karmenu", kas frančiem ir svēta lieta. Protams, Latvijā ir tā: ja ir vienkārši aplausi, tas nozīmē, ka izrāde nav sevišķi patikusi. Ja ir aplausi un ceļas kājās, tas ir labi. Bet tagad dažreiz ceļas kājās tikai celšanās pēc – gan filmām, gan izrādēm ir tāda problēma. Atceros, reiz Armēnijā braucu taksī, un tur skanēja kāda briesmīga dziesma. Prasu taksistam: tev patīk tā dziesma? Viņš saka – jā. Es saku – kas tev tajā patīk? Melodija? Viņš saka – nē, viņš dzied par mammām. Kā var nepatikt dziesma, ja tur dzied par mammām?! Un es saprotu, ka šeit tāpat ir ar filmām vai izrādēm: ja tēma ir pareiza un laba, cilvēkam patīk – vienalga, kā tas uztaisīts. Mani tas kaitina un nepatīk. Jo man liekas, ka nav tik svarīgi, par ko, bet kā. Man vienmēr interesē, kā konkrēto tēmu vai stāstu režisors ir interpretējis un parādījis uz skatuves vai uz ekrāna. Bet par to kino vēstures iespēju – Parīzē skatīties senākas un jaunākas filmas: pie mums tā ir ļoti reta iespēja. Vai arī mēs esam pieraduši vairāk skatīties mājās, datorā? Vienkārši mums ir maz cilvēku. Ja mūsu Rīgā būtu četri vai pieci miljoni iedzīvotāju, mums uz lielā ekrāna rādītu arī Bergmana filmas. Bet pēdējos gadus esmu manījis labu tendenci, ka ne tikai "Splendid Palace", bet arī lielajos komerckinoteātros ik pa brīdim rāda klasiku. Piemēram, vakar "Apollo kino" skatījos Kubrika "Mirdzuma" restaurēto versiju. Tas man bija liels piedzīvojums! Tiklīdz rāda kādu klasisko filmu labā kvalitāte, man ir ļoti svarīgi, lai tai būtu laba kvalitāte – gan projekcija, gan pati filmas kopija. Tiklīdz kaut kas tāds notiek, obligāti aizeju un noskatos. Tas vienmēr ir liels prieks. Arī "Splendid Palace" ik pa brīdim rāda klasiskās filmas un redzu, ka cilvēki nāk. Piemēram, vakar uz seansu bija ļoti daudz jauniešu, par ko biju priecīgs. Nezinu, kā viņi to uztvēra un vai viņiem tā patika vai nepatika, bet vienalga – interese bija. Skaidra lieta, ja šī filma būtu repertuārā, zāles būtu tukšas, bet ja ir īpašs seanss – notikums, cilvēki nāk, jo saprot, ka vairs nebūs tādas iespējas. Bet noslēgumā par kādu ļoti būtisku notikumu – par to, kas mūs sagaida 8. Janvārī. Lai arī neko daudz par Latvijas Radio 3 Klasika 30. jubilejas svinībām neatklāsim, mums ir liels prieks par to, ka piekriti būt šī koncerta režisors. Cik tas ir vienkārši – ieraudzīt pārdesmit skaņdarbus un izdomāt, kā tos salikt kopā? Tā būs mana pirmā pieredze... Man ir mazliet bail – vairāk, nekā taisīt operu, jo koncertus nekad neesmu režisējis. Bet, kad man piedāvāja tādu iespēju, negribēju atteikt, jo "Klasika" ir mans mīļākais radio. Vienmēr mašīnā klausos tikai divas radiostacijas, un viena no tām ir jūsu. Pat ja būtu uzaicināts mazgāt grīdas jūsu raidstacijas studijā, būtu atnācis jums palīdzēt! Šobrīd atklāsim to, ka būs krāšņi solisti un orķestri, Latvijas Nacionālais simfoniskais orķestris un Latvijas Radio bigbends, būs arī dažādi kamersastāvi. Vai tas var palīdzēt saprast to, kas tad tā "Klasika" īsti ir? "Klasika" ir tas, kas eksistē un dzīvo pāri laikam: laiks iet, bet tā dzīvo un eksistē. Jo tā ir klasika. Vai tas ir džezs vai akadēmiska mūzika – tam nav nekādas nozīmes. Cauri laikiem tas dzīvo, eksistē, un tas katrā ziņā ir mūžīgs.  Bet koncerta ziņā, protams, mums būs vizuāli elementi , kas apvienos to visu. Tajā pašā laikā, kas ir labi – katrā skaņdarbā mainās garastāvoklis, atmosfēra. Līdz ar to man kā režisoram galvenais uzdevums ir izdomāt pārejas no viena skaņdarba uz otru. Atrisināt tieši šo niansi. Bet baidos, ka tik ļoti baudīšu to koncertu, ka aizmirsīšu par saviem pienākumiem un darbu... (Smejas.)  Šajā koncertā būs mūsu rezidences mākslinieki Aigars Raumanis un Annija Kristiāna Ādamsone. Būs arī Elīna Garanča un Maestro Raimonds Pauls! Bet radoši tehniskajā komandā būs cilvēki, ar kuriem tu darbojies visai bieži – Artis Dzērve, Mārtiņš Vilkārsis. Tev ir svarīgi savi cilvēki, ar kuriem saproties no pusvārda? Protams. Tas ir ne tikai par rezultātu, bet arī par darba procesu. Līdz ar gadiem esmu sapratis, ka vēlos arī baudīt procesu, un procesu var baudīt, tikai pateicoties cilvēkiem, ar kuriem tu strādā! Man negribas ciest, man negribas cīnīties, man gribas vienkārši labi pavadīt laiku un sasniegt labu rezultātu. Tas jau nenozīmē, ka tā sanāks! Bet jāmēģina. Bet, tiklīdz tu izvirzi tādu uzdevu, vismaz uz pusi sanāk. Bet šie cilvēki mani pazīst ļoti ilgu laiku, esam ļoti daudz ko taisījuši kopā, sevišķi ar Arti Dzērvi un Kristīni Pasternaku. Domāju, viss būs interesanti un labi. Vai nav kādas šaubas par to, ka kaut ko var atkārtot? Kaut kas līdzīgs jau ir bijis?  Nē, nē! Neesmu redzējis koncertus. Godīgi sakot, pat nezinu, kā citi ir taisījuši koncertus. Līdz ar to man ir tāda sajūta, ka var darīt jebko. Bet tajā pašā laikā man dots ļoti konkrēts uzdevums no jūsu radio puses – ko jūs vēlaties, kam jābūt, un tas man vienkārši jāsaliek kopā. Man nav jāizdomā izrāde – šis ir mazliet cits uzdevums.

Debate da Super Manhã: Uma década em que o Brasil viveu um dos episódios mais marcantes da história recente na saúde pública: o surto da Zika vírus e o aumento abrupto de casos de microcefalia em recém-nascidos. A relação entre a infecção materna e as malformações congênitas mudou completamente a compreensão científica sobre o vírus. No debate desta sexta-feira (21), a comunicadora Natalia Ribeiro conversa com os nossos convidados para falar sobre a infecção da Zika e a condição congênita microcefalia e os pontos em comum das duas ocorrências, o impacto social e sanitário, e os avanços na área médica. Participam a médica neurologista, Adélia Henriques, o médico e pesquisador, Carlos Brito, e a jornalista e titular da Coluna Saúde e Bem-Estar do Jornal do Commercio, Cinthya Leite.

À l'approche de l'automne, on s'imagine souvent pouvoir ranger les produits anti-moustiques jusqu'au retour des beaux jours… Mais ce n'est plus vraiment le cas. Depuis quelques années, les moustiques semblent faire de la résistance. Le problème, c'est qu'en plus de provoquer des démangeaisons, leurs piqûres peuvent transmettre des maladies comme la dengue, le chikungunya, le Zika ou encore le virus du Nil occidental.  Comment peut-on expliquer ce phénomène ? Cela peut-il avoir des conséquences pour nous ? Écoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant, vous savez". Un podcast Bababam Originals écrit et réalisé par Magalie Bertet. À écouter ensuite : Quelles sont les 3 astuces pour vraiment se débarrasser des moustiques ? A quoi servent vraiment les moustiques ? Pourquoi les moustiques sont-ils plus attirés par certaines personnes que par d'autres ? Retrouvez tous les épisodes de "Maintenant vous savez". Suivez Bababam sur Instagram.

Convidadas: Adriana Melo, pioneira na identificação da infecção do vírus da zika em grávidas; e Marcelly Setúbal, produtora da série "Zika: 10 anos depois". Em novembro de 2015, o Brasil decretou epidemia de zika vírus – uma medida excepcional, após um aumento atípico no número de bebês nascidos com microcefalia. Em sua maioria, os casos foram registrados no Nordeste. Uma das primeiras médicas a identificar a relação ente o vírus da zika e a microcefalia foi Adriana Melo, entrevistada de Natuza Nery neste episódio. Dez anos depois, Adriana relembra como um sinal de alerta soou ao observar o cérebro de um bebê no ultrassom de uma de suas pacientes. Ela conta como foi possível identificar a relação de causa entre o vírus da zika e os casos de microcefalia. Adriana explica também que outros tipos de dano o vírus provoca no desenvolvimento dos bebês. Para contar como estão as milhares de mulheres que, dez anos atrás, deram à luz bebês com microcefalia, Natuza ouve a Marcelly Setúbal. Produtoras da série “Zika: 10 anos depois”, da GloboNews, a jornalista viajou a cidades de Pernambuco e do Rio de Janeiro para mostrar como estão as mães e suas crianças com microcefalia. Marcelly relata como essas famílias ficaram desassistidas, tanto pelo poder público, quanto pelos próprios pais.

How vector-borne diseases spread– and the critters that carry themMalaria, Lyme disease, dengue, Zika… what do they all have in common? They're what we call vector-borne diseases– spread to us by tiny, bite-happy arthropods. These little troublemakers are responsible for 17% of all infectious diseases worldwide, and with climate change and urbanization on the rise, they're becoming an even bigger threat.In this episode, Dr. Kaylee Byers sits down with insect investigator Dr. Gonzalo Vazquez-Prokopec to untangle the intricate web of vector-borne disease dynamics, and explain what makes these insects such masterful disease spreaders. Then, Dr. Pooja Swali shares how ancient DNA from thousands of years ago revealed a pathogen's curious evolutionary switch from one creepy crawly to another.From mosquitoes to ticks to the not-so-affectionate kissing bug, every insect in this lineup is guilty of something– and genomics is helping us figure out what.Click here for tickets and more information about the Nice Genes!

No dia 11 de novembro de 2015, o Ministério da Saúde decretou a epidemia de zika vírus no Brasil como situação de emergência em saúde pública de importância nacional. Naquele momento, pesquisadores de diversas áreas estavam debruçados sobre os casos de microcefalia em bebês , que pipocavam pelo país, sobretudo no Nordeste, e buscavam estabelecer a relação entre a contaminação das gestantes com a doença e as sequelas neurológicas nas crianças. O Durma com Essa desta quarta-feira (8) relembra as ações tomadas pelo governo na época, explica as descobertas científicas  sobre a doença e mostra como a a epidemia  ainda gera impactos no Brasil, dez anos depois da crise aguda.  O programa desta semana tem também João Paulo Charleaux falando sobre o telefonema entre Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva e Donald Trump na segunda-feira (6), e Emanuel Galdino explicando a série de reportagens sobre transição energética que ele está publicando no Nexo com apoio da Fapesp (Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo).  Learn more about your ad choices.

RE-RELEASE: This episode was originally released in February 2025.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.

Over the last half century, diseases carried by insects — such as malaria and dengue, Zika and Lyme disease — have greatly increased. Sociologists Brent Kaup and Kelly Austin argue that the surge in vector-borne disease has been fueled by neoliberal capitalism, at times in unexpected ways, such as through loosened financial regulations governing mortgages and health insurance, as well as the gutting of health care. Brent Z. Kaup and Kelly F. Austin, The Pathogens of Finance: How Capitalism Breeds Vector-Borne Disease UC Press, 2025 The post Capitalism and Insect-Borne Diseases appeared first on KPFA.

Hey Poison Friends! I know I promised a lot for this one episode, including West Nile, Zika, EEE, and Malaria. The truth is, malaria is just a huge topic on its own and instead of keeping you all here for hours at one time, we are discussing malaria in all of its old and new world glory, so to speak. I will be adding an extra bonus on our Patreon later this week that will be free for all for those still interested in West Nile/Zika, so come check that out there. The parasite that causes malaria is actually older than us humans and since humans entered the scene, they have been our nemesis. Mosquitoes are known to be, historically, the deadliest animal simply because of how many people have died due to malaria that they have transmitted. We are discussing the history of humankind vs mosquito/malaria and how various people groups of different eras attempted to deal with the disease. From the ancient Egyptians, to the Greeks, the Romans, ancient China, and those living throughout the middle ages in Europe. Previous notions were that malaria came from "bad air" and, in fact, the name comes from the Italian for "bad air." The Miasma and Humors theories were still prevalent in medicine, of course, until the true means of infection were discovered in the late 1800s. Also, we cannot leave out its historic prevalence in Africa and its later history among the American colonies, the Native Americans (indigenous groups in North and South America), Oceania, and among and throughout the African slave trade. History has been a doozy, lets be honest, and mosquitoes (and malaria) have witnessed it all. They even had their effects on historical events like the Fall of Rome, the Revolutionary War, Civil War, WWII, etc. We are delving into the science as well, discussing who discovered its causal agent and who found how it was transmitted via mosquito. Needless to say, the war with malaria has been awful through the centuries and in Sub-Saharan Africa, it still is. The disease is also still prevalent in Southeast Asia and in South America. So what have been the historic methods of treatment and how far have we come in this fight? Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

Wednesday August 20th is World Mosquito Day - and it may seem strange to set aside a day for an insect which accounts for around a million deaths a year. Nearly 700 million people contract mosquito-borne illnesses every year. The mosquitoes act as vectors, carrying bacteria, viruses, and parasites that cause illness in humans. Malaria, dengue fever, yellow fever, Zika virus, West Nile virus, and Japanese encephalitis are some of the most prominent diseases spread by mosquitoes. Things have improved, however - according to one survey, nearly half the world population was at significant risk from malaria in the 19th century with a 10% mortality among those infected. Today, it's feared global warming could potentially lead to a wider spread of mosquito-borne diseases due to increased mosquito populations and geographic range. Professor Beth McGraw is the head of biology at Penn State University in the US - she admits having a special day for such a killer seems odd at first glance.

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.

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.

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
