Thanks, Daniel. Oh, thank you. Pleasure is always. Welcome back. Welcome back, Cotter. Now, Christina Naula is gone,, unfortunately. She uploaded and left. I hope she uploaded, actually. Exactly right. She started to celebrate Burns Night early. 97% uploaded, so hopefully she will upload when I stop. Anyway, Christina ... |
From Microbe TV, this is TWiP, This Week in Par parasites. Dixon DesPommiers and Daniel Griffin. Welcome to 2017. Hello, everybody. Hello, everybody. Happy New Year. Welcome to the New Year. This is the first TWIP of the New Year, but it's also the first microbe TV show. No kidding. Yeah. It's the first one. Get to kic... |
I shall fix it. Yosef writes, my main differential for this case would be a worm that is crawling through this young woman's foot leading to cutaneous larva migrans, aka ground itch or plumber's itch. My most likely guess as to the culprit would be Ancylostoma Brasiliense. This worm normally parasitizes cats or dogs, b... |
John from Limerick, Ireland. So, Dixon, remember that not all the elements were present the next time you have the opportunity. The next time that comes up in a cocktail party, I'll be sure to give the correct answers. But I'm sure within the first million years, most of them were created, don't you think? No, it says ... |
And it is interesting. Oh, it's going to get better on its own, but 10 days later it's going to get better on its own. So this worm or worms, depending, this worm is going to, larva is going to continue to migrate around your foot. So in this case, you know, I was asked about this. I saw it, you know, and this is a pla... |
And then, of course, we've got the hookworms that can penetrate unbroken skin as well. So those are the ones that we have to be on the red alert for. So these, in this story, were fecal contamination from dogs and cats. That's right. Those are the natural hosts. For this particular species. Right. For this species. For... |
How could you sleep through all this? Well, that's the interesting part. First of all, it falls from the ceiling, right? No, that's the interesting part. Not always. It's not going to fall on your face. It must fall on your face. No, but they can fly. These things can fly. They're flying and they land gently on your fa... |
But nowadays, we have total genomes sequence. You don't have to do that anymore. You can just look at it. Now, of course, would you know how to do that? That's the question. If I say to you, Dickson, go find the T-Cruise RPA, would you know how to do that? Sure. What would you do? I'd get Amy and I'd say, Amy, you're g... |
I don't know. Do you think they have their own special binding proteins? I mean, they must, right? Because they're also going to replicate. They're going to need something to hold the strands separate. This is very true. Their replication is bizarre. They have to have a single strain of DNA binding. It's quite bizarre.... |
And then it binds to that, so they sort of build on each other. I know for a while we were working on a lab on a basic helix loop, helix protein, which is a transcriptional factor. That's right. And I wondered whether any of these fit into that category. They didn't mention it, but there are other motifs that are not j... |
I don't think he told us. No, he didn't tell us about eosinophils, but he did say both the liver and the spleen were tender and enlarged, right? He did say that. Hepatosplenomegaly? That's what I'd call it. That's the term? That is the term. And we're in Burma at the Thai border. Right. Mission of Burma. Remember that ... |
I want to do this guy, Francesco Redi. Francesco Redi is a very interesting early parasitologist. Whenever you're ready. That was very good. I like that. That's very good. That's excellent. So next time, we'll be ready for ready. Okay. We have some email. Ah. Daniel, can you take that first one? Yes. This was actually ... |
You're kidding. They hoard animals? Yeah, they do. They open a door and there's 5,000 cats inside. Oh my gosh. Yeah, so I would think of toxoplasmosis. Yeah, well, toxo, yeah, toxo definitely. And that's well described, I think, among the cat hoarders. That's right. And you love the idea, everyone, they don't mind all ... |
From MicroTV, this is TWiP, This Week in Parasit a sunny New York City, Dixon de Pommier. Good afternoon, Vincent. Welcome back. Thank you. And from a remote location. Wait a minute. Welcome back from where? Daniel Griffin. Hello, everybody. Hello, Daniel. So, welcome back. You've got to tell the people. I want to brin... |
And he provides a reference. Three diseases listed in PD-7 are also associated with splenomegaly, and I list them here as an attempt at differential. The differential is complicated by the widespread prevalence of fever-causing parasitic diseases in the region. Uh-huh. Two, acute stage of African trypanosomiasis, but n... |
The case study example for PWP was extraordinarily similar to our case study of the 12-year-old South Sudanese refugee. Diagnosis, visceral leishmaniasis by an old-world leishmania donovanii, consistent with spunomegaly and apatomegaly. Chronic fevers occurring every other day, 80% mortality if untreated and found in t... |
hepatospinomegaly be the path directly to a presumptive diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis. Of course, other common diseases in the region must be considered, such as malaria, tuberculosis, schistosomiasis. Intercurrent illnesses, such as dysentery and pneumonia, must also be borne in mind. The fact that amphotericin ... |
I feel pretty bad because I've been listening to TWIP since we covered Plasmodium in my undergrad zoology course in 2009 or 2010. I think, is TWIP really running so long? It is. Longest running show on Broadway. That's right. Science show, anyway. Anyway, you're worth more than a dollar a month, but I'm a perpetual stu... |
Liposomal amphotericin B has been used increasingly to treat this parasitic infection and is the treatment of choice for immunocompetent patients in the Mediterranean region. A total dose of 20 milligrams per kilogram is effective in these immunocompetent patients. I hope I'm right about all of that. LOL. What does tha... |
She wants you to sign the book too, Vincent. Oh, me? She does. I'm not a parasitologist, though. Yes, you are. You study very tiny parasites, viruses. All right, I'll sign it too. I will sign it. She requested it. Not an author, however, I will sign it. She knows that. Usually only authors sign books. Could be. That's ... |
Yes. Upstage was a very short little window to grab. Exactly. They haven't worked either. They haven't worked. Yeah. They've had trouble, right? Yeah, they did. Lots of trouble. How do you get a lot of these? Because the one that seemed to have the most success, you've got to grow up all these sporozoites, inject livin... |
So this one had no neutralizing capacity on its own. It was not able to block infection. But when mixed with other antibodies, it makes them better. Right. And that is the sort of thing you wouldn't be able to predict. You just have to do the experiments. Synergy. So then they say, could it synergize with antibodies di... |
You met him and then I met Metcalf who was another very famous immunologist as well down at the Walter and Eliza. So, you know, these people who start out not knowing everything that we know now because we obviously have more technology available and that sort of thing, and we have more knowledge because of all the mis... |
But, yeah, I think this is a diagnosis people might get. So, when he went hiking, what time of year was it? Well, so I just saw this gentleman about two weeks ago. So I'm seeing him in... Summertime. Summertime. So it was in the spring. And actually... Spring? Yeah. So let's say June that he was hiking. That's summer. ... |
Done correctly, this method has been observed to render both oocysts and bradyzoites non-infectious. Whether the commercial products indeed are processed correctly would be something interesting to test. By the way, as a digression, I find it curious, considering the public health importance, that it's not known for ce... |
From Microbe TV, this is TWiP, This Week in Paras New Jersey, Dixon DesPommiers. Hello there, Vincent. And from a remote location, Daniel Griffin. Hello, everyone. Hey, Daniel. Just like the old days, huh? I tell you. The tried and true trio. If you like what we do here on Microbe TV, consider supporting us, microbe.tv... |
Now to my picture. I was made aware that two young PhD candidates who are researching in microbiology would like to share their love of science with the people of Pangaroa. As it is the birthplace of Nobel Prize winner Maurice Wilkins, there was a definite hook to microbiology. We organized two events, a talk for the a... |
Yeah, I think that's what I've heard too, by the way, Daniel. So you're up. 400 days. 400 days is a long time. It is, isn't it? But not as long as some ticks. Some ticks can go years without feeding. So this is, I know, it's really depressing when you think about it. I can't go two days without feeding. So Western you,... |
Regarding our African location, the Nigerian reference below states that only 16% of inspected dwellings were without bed bug infestations. I will list some essential facts that may assuage a few of the more irrational fears that bug victims nourish. Bullet number one, bed bugs carry no known human disease despite laun... |
You don't have to go to Uganda to get bedbugs as a lot of people visiting New York have. Right. to think was excessive. No. One of the challenges as people brought up was what do you have access to in Uganda? There's no dryer within any distance that one can easily travel in from Baduda. So you can't put everything in ... |
The surface tegument of schistosoma mansoni turns over at a tremendous rate, but it also has mimic molecules to the host proteins, which sort of masks it from being attacked as a result. And if you could somehow alter those expressions using, like they said, lentiviruses that could carry the proper changed genes for th... |
It is. So have people used this to modify? That's a very good question. I feel like there might have been a Trichinella paper that I saw in the last year or so where they were starting to use this technique for a few other – yeah, because it's a powerful technique. The mitochondrial thing is interesting, and I just – I... |
When lupus treatments are not effective or are no longer accessed with hydroxychloroquine, what will be the alternatives going to be? Where do I look? Is there a phage that can attack only plasmodium as a way to bypass anti-imalarial resistance? Wouldn't that be nice? Well, phages are only on bacteria. That's right. Di... |
From Microbe TV, this is TWiP, This Week in Parasit Lee, New Jersey, Dixon Depommier. Hello, Vincent and everybody else. The weather outside is dreary. The temperature is in the low 50s, high 40s. I haven't gone out, so I really can't say. I haven't looked. It just looks unpleasant, and I'm glad I'm here podcasting. Al... |
However, recently I heard Vicky writing from Duluth, Dr. Dahmer from Ashland and Courtney from Omaha. I did my medical school in undergrad in Duluth and made several trips to Ashland to kayak on the beautiful Lake Superior. And now I'm an intern in Omaha. I hope you all realize what an awesome community you have establ... |
F-hepatica infection is known to present as right upper quadrant pain like the woman was experiencing. The solid mass mentioned in the case study could be an enlarged portion of the patient's liver. An ELISA test can be used to determine if the patient has F-hepatica-specific antibodies circulating in the blood. That w... |
But I'm thinking that this case is pointing towards echinococcus which is a tapeworm where we are the accidental intermediate host. The cyst is lined by worm epithelium and parts of scoliosis heads. Sometimes the cyst is full of so many worm heads that it can be called hydatid sand. I am guessing it is very tense, whic... |
Regarding the comment that the examiners of our patient discounted a cyst due to the lack of fluctuance, Dame Sheila Sherlock says, the tension in the cyst is high and fluctuation is never marked. The weak point in my diagnosis concerns the paucity of epidemiological data on hidatidosis in West Africa. The disease has ... |
He describes much of the life cycle of Echinococcus that we've heard about. There are two species, Granulosis and Multilocularis. We can rule out Multilocularis as its primary host is the Arctic fox, and the disease is therefore restricted to the northern hemisphere so my diagnosis would be egranulosis these cysts can ... |
So Helen says, as soon as I put a scan on, I knew what it was. There was a large cystic type structure within which there were many small round lesions, completely spherical in shape. So I think that really gives it away. So that is a clear diagnosis of cystic echinococcus, myodatitis. And I think, you know, I think ma... |
And so this was basically a modeling study looking at what's going on and saying, you know, where are we going to be in a year from now when a lot of people can get back into these regions, when we can fire up a lot of these malaria control programs. And they're actually under this scenario, they're looking at a potent... |
Three living presidents are going to actually get their COVID shots together to show that it's okay. That's important. But I think really the key will be having Daniel get his shot on TWIV. And that'll do it. We would love to see that. Then once he does, then everyone will get it. All right. I think it's important, if ... |
It was one of the most exciting days of my life as a parasitology person, because I got to see something that almost nobody else has ever seen and never will see that again. It was a rare occurrence. We knew probably within a 95% confidence limit what the cause of his blindness was. Well, blurred vision, not blindness,... |
This week in parasitism is brought to you by the American Societyth, 2011. Hello everyone, I'm Vincent Racaniello, and I'm with Dixon DesPommiers. Hello, Vince. How are you, Dixon? I'm doing well, thank you. I've seen you twice within four days. I tell you, pretty soon we'll be living together. No, no, no, no, no, no. ... |
That's right. With 800 million in Asia alone. And since your book is now five years out of date, those numbers have probably increased substantially, wouldn't you say? This is all true. Dixon, the book was published in... 2005. Six years. That's a large number. It is. So this is a very successful parasite. Hugely succe... |
All right, here's what happens, Vince. The egg receives an environmental cue in the stomach. It's acidic. And this alerts the synthetic, the protein synthesis system, which is keyed in to making an enzyme which allows the worm to digest its way out of the egg. Okay, that sounds familiar. And at the same time, but if it... |
Yeah, but they're little tiny worms still. They're microscopic here. They're able to migrate up the wall? Yep. Wow. And they can come up the alveoli into the... Across the epiglottis. Trachea and the bronchus and all the way up. Wow. Across the epiglottis and then down through the small intestine. Wait a minute. Where ... |
Make eggs that don't hatch. So that's the end of the line. So you need to have two. What consequence would a single worm have for the host? I have to tell you more about this parasite. Please do. I will. So one of the features of this parasite is the fact that it produces a lot of eggs. And usually people have more tha... |
It could go out the mouth or the anus. That's an escape mechanism. You said it could penetrate the intestinal wall. You're right, but you'll end up in the peritoneum and you're dead. Well, then you get an infection. That's really bad. Oh, you're darn right. Because all the bacteria in your intestine go into the periton... |
Unlikely. Could happen theoretically. Highly unlikely. Food handlers transmit things that are immediately infectious to us. Okay. So food handlers are not important disseminators of vascular cells. So how do you know that you're infected so that you could get treatment? Okay, okay, okay. The answer is, well, if you liv... |
They get recontaminated, right? You don't go to the source of the problem. Which is? Sanitation. Yeah, exactly. If you don't address that problem, then the drug companies love this, but the people that live there hate it. But for the most part, with the exception of acute episodes, people live with this. They're treate... |
I never said that. I just said, I mean, usually there are not enough worms to actually affect the growth of a person. But in pigs there can be. So it's a controversial issue though, right? You're right to raise the issue of does ascaris by itself stunt people's growth rates because it inhibits their protein absorption ... |
Remember I told you ascaris produces ascarisidin, which is a horrible allergen. Now these little kids are responding to that too. In ocular and visceral larva migraines, the worms are there long enough to elicit antibodies so that you could detect them if you had the right antigens. So how do you get the right antigens... |
No, don't do that. Don't do that. You'll freak him out. But you know what he does to me? He said, Dad, you're just as bacteria-laden as my dog. He's right. More, actually. Because you're bigger. So deworming involves treatment with? Mabendazole. Got it. So they also get ivermectin for heartworm. Yeah, there's another d... |
So, it's possible to have many different populations of, let's say, Plasmodium falciparum or Plasmodium vivax in a single individual. And remember, immunity is very lousy. It's poorly lasting in people with malarial parasites, so that from season to season they get different strains, okay? And with Plasmodium vivax, at... |
Send them to TWIP at twiv.tv, or if you're over at microbeworld.org slash twip, there's also a place where you can send email to us. Dixon de Pommier can be found at triconella.org, which is the most relevant to this show. True, and medicalecology. Medicalecology.org is also relevant, and then verticalfarm.com is the p... |
From Microbe TV, this is TWiP, This Week in Parasitism, episode 16 me here in New York City, Dixon DesPommiers. Hello there, Vincent. And Daniel Griffin. Hello, everybody. Hello there, Daniel. Daniel's right here. You know what the title of the last episode? Tell us. From remote locations, because we were all remote. W... |
After considering this case, I realized that the precise definition of bulky in reference to stool completely eluded me. I was reminded of the Carl Krauss quotation, quote, the closer the look one takes at a word, the greater the distance from which it looks back. I usually considered bulky to mean big and chunky. Body... |
I'll leave it to the professionals to know which one is the best. I have gotten lucky before and got the hard cover of PD6 edition. However, I wanted to see if my old college might want it, but being 100 miles away from there and only returning home on the holidays hasn't allowed me to bring it over. So while I would l... |
I don't know if we have a good explanation for why. Because previously they just did those sigmoidoscopies, right? Exactly. One of the earlier screening methods was the sigmoidoscopy, and the sigmoidoscopy would come up, look through the sigmoid, and we get up to just about the splenic flexure, which is the upper left ... |
And then you find out that they have more than one thing, which, you know, Occam was not a physician, as I like the mother, who actually did have amoebiasis, but the daughter did not. What did she have? She had Salmonella typhi, which was a much more dangerous parasite in some respects. And she called me about three we... |
So I identified five individuals who apparently did not get one before, so let's pick a number between one and five. Are you ready, Dixon? I'm set. That number is two. Hey, number two. And, you know, number two happens to be. Sounds like Blair. Blair. So Blair, if you have not won one before, a copy of PD6, this will b... |
Macrophages. Macrophages would be the classic. I would sled to believe earlier in my life as a teacher that when the parasite induces nitric oxide formation, isn't that what puts the patient to sleep? I don't think that's true. So that data has been… I don't think that data has panned out. And it's actually, that's int... |
And what you're trying to do is figure out who am I going to give oral artemisinbased therapy to, who needs IV artesanate, who needs to go to the hospital because they're, you know, that, as we talked about, 10%, 10, 20% that are potentially going to die in this setting. Because we want to recognize those people who ar... |
This is not a plug in that sense, but I hope she listens to this podcast and remembers some of the wonderful times that we had together when I first discovered Europe through this meeting that I went to in Munich. Is this the first hero that you've known personally? No, no. I knew some others. I knew Bill Campbell very... |
It should be. Actually, that is one of the – well, for you, you're getting your frequent colonoscopy, so maybe they feel like that's even more exacting than a history question. But that's one of the warning signs for colon cancers is change in frequency, change in caliber. Interesting. Well, this is an interesting case... |
Daniel Griffin is at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and parasiteswithoutborders.com. Thanks, Daniel. Good to see you. Pleasure as always. Dixon DePommier is at Trichinella.org and TheLivingRiver.org. Thank you, Dixon. Had a great time. I always see you. You do. But it's still good to see you. It's nice. We'r... |
From Microbe TV, this is TWiP, This Week in Parasrobe TV studio in New York City, Daniel Griffin. Hello, Vincent. Hello, everybody. And no Dixon. We are missing Dixon. There are two forms of missing Dixon. One is he's not here, and the other is, you know, we're missing him. Yeah, he got the date wrong, and he's fishing... |
By the time the teacher is symptomatic, scabies is probably well established in class. The mites can also easily be brought home from school to be introduced to parents and siblings. Fortunately, there are a number of topical treatments available as well as more powerful drugs that can be used if needed. In addition, a... |
Anywho, on to this month's guests. I would reckon that this patient is suffering from scabies mites, nasty mites that can be extremely irritating and that like to live in between fingers. These mites can be transmitted person to person, and the teacher in this case most likely caught them from their students. I already... |
Treatment is well described in the CDC and WHO websites. It's interesting to note that the ancient remedy of 5% to 10% sulfur and vaseline is still a potential cure and is safe to use in infants. It's a remedy you could actually make at home. Note that ivermectin is not FDA approved for scabies, but is CDC recommended ... |
Just thought, well, we just... You did mention the weather, right? I don't know what other things we used to talk about. We do talk about a lot of things. There used to be a little more of a pre-case banter, right? Really? Yeah, there was a little bit more of a pre... Now we're getting right to business. You know, Dixo... |
I have two here signed only, but you have more, right? Don't you have more somewhere else at the factory or wherever it is? I think we're done. We might be moving on to PD7 here. Yeah. I thought you said you had hundreds of six. We're all done. PD6 is, there's no more PD6s. All right. So these are the last two. These a... |
They come in separately and find each other. Exactly. So you need to be infected by more than one. And yeah. So what they say here, for decades, inconsistency in cercario production by snails and infectivity of mammalian hosts has been observed in labs, as you said, and they couldn't figure it out. But then it was foun... |
the snail population is expanding and we're thinking it's all good, but where does this go? Because one of the ways people have tried to control schistosomiasis is killing the snails. Because schistosomes have a specific snail as part of their life cycle. It's not just any random snail. And if the snails get a benefit ... |
This definition unfortunately omits finding in blood smears, urine sputum, etc. The Oxford English Dictionary defines pseudoparasite thus, an organism whose presence within another is interpreted as parasitic, but which is only present by accident, formerly also a hemiparasite, an organism apparently but not strictly p... |
From Microbe TV, this is TWiP, This Week in Parasit Lee, New Jersey, Dixon Depommier. Hello, Vincent and everybody else. Looking out my window, I see puffy white clouds, sort of a Georgia o'keefish look, but it's not Georgia o'keeish in terms of temperature because she lived in the desert in the warm part of the world.... |
Medical treatment is 80% 90% effective and surgery is sometimes required. Preventative measures include changing the cleaning solution every night, only using commercial solutions and not homemade, although cases tied to some commercial solutions have also occurred. Letting the contact lenses air dry thoroughly each da... |
It depends on where they're from, I suppose. If they're from the UK, we've got some newfound freedoms. True. You know, lockdown easing up a bit in England a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, that's true. That is true. For us in Scotland last week. So, you know, maybe people just want to get out. Yeah. And wouldn't they be lis... |
All right. It's time for a random number. We had 13 guesses, and the winner is number 10. That's Erica, who's still hoping for a book. There you go, Erica. You got it. Now all we have to do is get it to you. Winner. So, Erica, just send me your address and phone, since you're in Canada, to twip at microbe.tv and someti... |
It's all gone, which happened with this week's TWIV. And I do not hesitate to be critical, as you know. Anyway, so what they... Shall we go through the work? Did we lose Dixon? No, Dixon's... Oh, he left. That's fine. We can start. So, first experiment, they feed, they gavage the mice with the larvae of this worm and t... |
Yeah, that's right. And a critical in a CD8 T cell activation. Right. So STAT6 is needed for TH2 responses, right? Which would be a helminth triggered response. In this paper, by the way, they use all kinds of knockout mice, which is just phenomenal. So here they use statinol mice, right? Mice lacking the stat gene. An... |
And I couldn't really understand all of that. So I didn't do much talking to those people. I think there's a reverse correlation, Dixon. You know, once something is very clear cut, no one has strong opinions. When it's controversial, you don't know. That's when we're the most adamant and passionate. So no, it's nice. N... |
No. No, they're going to raise them. They're going to raise them higher. That's right. I'm sure that'll happen for me, too. Well, one more thing thing is left and that is to see if Daniel has another case. Oh, I don't think so. Come on. He must be totally out of cases by now. Don't you think? Yeah. I have a case. I act... |
From Microbe TV, this is TWiP, This Week in Parasitism Fort Lee, New Jersey, Dixon DePommier. Hello, Vincent. And hello, Daniel, when you say hello. And from New York, Daniel Griffin. Hello, everyone. You know, now with the Zoom, with the visual, I guess I'm always here. Exactly. Exactly. We're never going to go back t... |
The patient's history of freshwater swimming is also pertinent positive, since this indicates a potential source of exposure. We just learned about this parasite in school, so perhaps I have some cognitive bias. All the best, Samantha, a very curious medical student with a newfound love for all things viruses and paras... |
Thankfully, the County Board of Education finally transitioned to 100% virtual this week after several harshly written emails about their mishandling of the pandemic. I have been listening to Microbe TV podcasts for about two to three years now and figured I would give this a shot. Please don't expect anything spectacu... |
Two suckers, a gynecophoric canal, and a copula, and an incopula lifestyle, as they say, what could possibly go wrong? What I find most disturbing in this case is the fact that no diagnostics were run on the patient, even in the face of the overwhelming likelihood that a hematopoietic infection was the answer. The impo... |
He wants to learn about parasites. As I listen to Daniel, how will I figure this one out? So I did the following Google and he got urinary schistosomiasis. Touche, Daniel. Prazi Kwanto. Thank you, Daniel, for your work with Parasites Without Borders. Caten is an owner of a grass-fed beef company. I'm getting hungry. So... |
Wonderful. Thank you, Dixon. So it looks like we have a fourth box there. Indeed. Do you want to unmute yourself? We will join you in. We'll loop you in. Oh, there's the name. Hey, everyone. Nice to meet you. I'm Alden. Happy to be on the show. How do you pronounce your last name? Lear, like Learjet. So, Daniel, are yo... |
you |
From Microbe TV, this is TWiP, This Week in Parasit New Jersey, Dixon DesPommiers. Hello, Vincent. I'm looking out the window. It's cloudy and the temperature was 63 degrees. 63 degrees Fahrenheit. This is February 17th. That's an absurd combination. Tonight, it's supposed to rain like hell, thunder and lightning, and ... |
In this region of the world, the dimorphic fungus talaromyces with its bright red pigment, I think of red high heels, talon, can infect immune compromised hosts but I don't think he is immune compromised. I wonder about acute pulmonary histoplasmosis. If he were in the southwest of the US I would also consider acute pu... |
Afterwards, the suspected diagnosis of diabetes should be evaluated and treatment initiated if necessary. Wow. Alexander's in Vienna, Austria. Cool. Back to back episodes now. That's great. Listening to Twipcase202, the Mumbai car in me is shouting, TB, TB. A man in his 60s living in a Rohingya camp in Bangladesh where... |
Thank you so much for your excellent work, Christine. I think people know how I feel about Occam, right? Occam was not a physician. Eric writes, but there may be multiple things going on here because tying them all into one parasitic infection would be tough. I'm going for a triple for the rash that he and his family m... |
Am I right in thinking that this is a very scary development? And he provides a link for that. Nah, Andrew. Yeah, I actually find that quite concerning. I mean, that's one of these things a lot of times you travel to these areas like Accra, you know, and you're, oh, I'm in the urban area. There's not much malaria in th... |
So they wanted to actually just see... I just have too many notes. I shouldn't make that many notes. I can't't find my place that's a line from Amadeus by the way the movie it just has said way too many notes when we'll get back to that later yes I remember that I remember you have the right number you just have to rea... |
Does it get really hot under a bed net? Yeah, it can. It can, particularly the original, those tight weave that used to be used. I did see bed nets being used, right? Keep the chickens fishing, you know, other popular uses for bed nets. Yeah, if we then kind of look at overall survival release, and that's shown in figu... |
