Yes a trio test would be great if one can afford to purchase it. Unfortunately there are many that cannot. Never miss a Clinical Update. Thank you for all you do to bring the information.
My grandchild had RSV a year ago, and now again! It came on suddenly while I was visiting her and a week later it started in me. I had the RSV vaccine last year. This is so much worse than bronchitis! Nearly two weeks and I am not over it. I wonder if seniors should get the vaccine every year?
Were both you and your grandchild RSV vaccinated? mRNA vaccinated? According to the NIH, "The mechanism of immunity to pertussis after natural infection or immunization is complex and not fully understood. Immunity has been shown to wane seven to 20 years after natural infection and five to 10 years after immunization with whole cell vaccines." It seems like your (plural: you and grandchild) physicians have some explaining to do. For instance, why did your grandchild not develop sufficient immunity to prevent recurrent symptomatic illness? And if your vaccine failed, is it realistic to think additional doses would perform better than the natural immunity you will have post-infection? Would natural immunity + additional vaccination more likely yield: a.) beneficial synergistic immunity or b.) disregulation ?
Happy Merry, to you both. Thank you for another year of education and stimulation! I love it when Vincent gets passionate and voices the frustration we all feel. I adore Daniel's sly humour combined with his compassion. What a terrific team you are! Over the past several years, the entire team at TWIV has equipped me to have intelligent conversations about viruses, infectious disease, and the mechanism of vaccination. May all who TWIV fare well in the coming years! Big thanks to you all!
I was 'inoculated' against anti vaxer 'information' in my first class at secondary school. One girl had a withered leg in a brace. Why? Because she had had polio. I didn't get it, because I was vaccinated.
The person question from California definitely has an occupational health risk and use an NIOSH certified fit tested N 95 respirator. Airborne particles could possibly attach to the worker’s cloths and therefore should wear disposable overalls. Wash hands after finishing work shift. Do not eat lunch at dump site.
A year later my cousin had polio, als no shots were available then. 79 years ago, what a crazy time nothing was available. I had to leave my carriage for my cousin, she now passed away 2 months ago.
Whooping cough known as Bordetella Pertussis has an early Catarrhal Phase with Runny Nose sometimes conjunctivitis sometimes cough . it lasts 7 -10 days . If the illness can be picked up and treated in the catarrhal phase the disease severity is significantly less .Diagnosis is by PCR . In an outbreak PCR testing and treatment ought help many .
My 7 week old niece was one week from being able to get her first vaccine at 8 weeks of age. She caught pertussis + spent over 3 months in the hospital. In the first 24 hours, she had to be resuscitated 75 times. Yes, 7 5. It was so damaging to her poor lungs, she was in the NICU for several months, and then caught RSV and spent an additional month in the hospital. Her mother (of 4), lived in the hospital with her thanks to the Ronald McDonald House room. It was such a frightening experience for their family! Another family member 45 yrs. old , who didn't think he needed a booster, also caught whooping cough a few years later, and his lungs are still not the same.
As I sit waiting for the results of a pertussis test on my child with pneumonia, I decided to listen to this week’s TWIV. And first thing you are talking about is Pertussis!!! Btw, yes my child is fully vaccinated and just had her TDAP booster 1 month ago. She is miserably coughing away. Happy New Year to you both! Edit to add: she is negative for pertussis per lab work. Just wanted to let you all know!
I had “Hong Kong” flu back in 1969. Felt horrible and it took a couple of months before I was completely myself again. I was in middle school at the time.
I wish everyone could watch videos of children suffering from these diseases because they are too young to get vaccinated, or their parents haven't vaccinated them, or responsible adults have not been vaccinated yet.
re: long covid- Over 10 years ago we new that cortisol levels and hyper-adrenalism was on the rise. New studies know that autonomic nervous system impacts and long covid are attributing to ongoing glandular stress. Like to see a study to correlate people suffering from long covid and previous, early patterns of adrenal stress due to long term lifestyle risk factors with erratic daily routines ( chronic insomnia, poor long-term food choices, and ignorance of binaural rhythms)
My son got Kawasaki Disease, an autoimmune disease less than 1 week after i was ambushed by the doctors who gave him 5 vaccines at once to start kindergarten. He didn't get to start kindergarten. He was in the hospital. Im not antivax, but letting moms space out the vaccines is not wrong. He's nearly 30 and never had any other autoimmune thing again.
If you had spaced out the vaccines, then you would have either had to postpone him starting kindergarten or taken the (probably much higher) risk of him contracting or transmitting a disease even more serious than KD.
You have to listen to mothers. Please don’t dismiss them as ignorant. Why is it unacceptable to separate the vaccines. Anti-vaxx is going to get worse unless these people have choices
Why should we listen to mothers if they have no valid arguments for their uneducated opinion. Being a mother is a wonderful thing, but unfortunately does not include knowledge about vaccines.
Did cold agglutinine play a rol in pathogenesis of micro clotts at lung level ? Did cryoglobuline IgM high level play a rol in pathogenesis of micro clotts at lung level ?
I love your show. REgarding whooping cough - we got it in Feb, 2020 are we considered protected (vaccinated per se) or can we recatch how likely? I haven't listened as recently as had big health things going on but every time I come back to you - you give me cozy vibes even with the heavy subjects. i remember listening to you so much during the covid days. you were so comforting and I appreciated you all so much. Coming back to your channel - like coming home. weird but true. And as I listen regarding winter - I agree. I always say I like the cold but I don't like being cold in it. ... LOVE ANIMALS always have since I was little. Also, my son and my dog just got over a long pneumonia and now my husband has Covid. Sheesh!!

Huge thank you as always. Happy New Year to the whole team including those behind the scenes.

Those 60+ would benefit from being vaccinated.

If it takes too long, you can always get a cough plate culture for Whooping cough
I am so sorry hope your child pulls through OK
@@inkpot9359 thank you! Should have the results by late morning I think.
@@francesschaefer thank you! They put her on 2 antibiotics so fingers crossed that knocks it out.
Where do u think she contracted this pertussis?
Happy new year, you guys! And thanks for making some of the most helpful and informative podcasts around.
I hope things get better for you!
Yesterday China CDC week 51 report:
Covid 1.6%
Influenza 23.1%
RSV 2.3%
Similar in the UK.
This was very informative. Thanks, guys.
Back in the late '80s I was attending a college where a couple of students got measles. I went and. Got myself revaccinated.
I had “Hong Kong” flu back in 1969. Felt horrible and it took a couple of months before I was completely myself again. I was in middle school at the time.

They call the vaccination protocol for children „scientific“
So..... If he got hit by a car the next day would that be caused by the vaccine. Data please.
If you had spaced out the vaccines, then you would have either had to postpone him starting kindergarten or taken the (probably much higher) risk of him contracting or transmitting a disease even more serious than KD.
Studies have shown that Kawasaki Disease is strictly coincidental when it occurs after receiving vaccines.
The vaccine talk would make a good short for sharing.
Thank you so much for all the work you do. Here's to a healthy (and hopefully somewhat sane?) 2025.
Brrrrrr. Yucky cold rain today. 🌧️🌨️☂️
If doxycycline works for covid it probably does more than cover symptoms. For one it inhibits metalloproteinases which reduces collagen damage.
You have to listen to mothers. Please don’t dismiss them as ignorant. Why is it unacceptable to separate the vaccines. Anti-vaxx is going to get worse unless these people have choices
Choices to infect their kids and others with measles?
Then home school your kid until they're up to date on their shots.
Why should we listen to mothers if they have no valid arguments for their uneducated opinion.
Being a mother is a wonderful thing, but unfortunately does not include knowledge about vaccines.
@@christinaduffy6618 why? Mothers are not experts. Experts are experts. You should listen to experts.
Can corelate low body thermogenesis with severity of Covid19 ?
Daniel it's "Hooping cough". You pronounce it like 'Who' with out the 'Wh'!
Whooping cough
@ That's how it's spelt, not how it's pronounced!!!
@@WillNewcomb It varies regionally. Growing up in the US Great Lakes region everybody pronounced the "w".
Though the tough cough and hiccough plough him through
