Its the remix! Measles Wipes the Hard Drive
01/21/24 • 62 min
Spurred by an outbreak in Philadelphia December 2023 and continuing into 2024 with some pockets of infection in Colorado we wanted to re-release our previous podcast on measles for those of you who are concerned!
Breaking news! Measles outbreak in Ohio has prompted us to talk a little bit about this. (November 2022)
Measles is highly contagious and requires 95% of eligible human beings in the community to be vaccinated. 25% in this Ohio community are unvaccinated. It is an RNA virus, the only host is human.
Clinically, viral syndrome like fever, malaise, cough, runny nose, conjunctivitis, so called "koplik" spots which we try to describe.
The scary stuff, is encephalitis (we explain), pneumonia, and other brain complications, and death.
The freshly coughed pocket of air is not the only way it is transmitted! And you can infect others before you have symptoms!
Folks with measles have weakened immune systems!
We explain how we got here and the autism story and how misinformation got us on lock.

Vaccine is incredibly effective! No known transmission among vaccinated folks.

Collective trauma and choices during the holidays
Today we have two amazing leaders in mental health discussing the issues of holiday anxiety after experiencing the collective trauma of Covid and other global and local tragedies. Do we gather? Do we stay in solitude? How can we be authentic and still preserve the relationships that matter the most to us? How can we hold two things to be true at the same time? And how can we center our choices and ensure they are not hurting anyone else? We could have talked for hours!
