And this is what were going to take a closer look at today like why we humans need a thing called hertz immunity what our immune system has to do with soccer. Whether vaccines contain pork and how just one englishmans journey cost 25000. 00 cases of measles. Im going to meet an expert in that summation. We are purposely not talking about the Novel Coronavirus because thats the nations the topic of many interesting aspects as well because its nations are necessary what do you do when you cant fight your fixation certificate what other risks are facing nation wide because you know that all. Polio was the dreaded disease perfectly healthy children went to bed one day and whoa kept the other with incurable paralysis thousands of them died until finally it exceeded was held. In the 1960 s. Children across the world work risk of contracting polio and the disease started with a harmless bout of fever and diarrhea but then paralysis said it. Starting in the legs and moving up the body there was no treatment. In the worst cases the childs just muscles were affected and they couldnt breathe the only solution was an iron lung a mechanical respirator that stimulated breathing sometimes for months. Some polio sufferers died of the disease many of those who survived were left unable to walk properly and relied on a walking frame. Then in the 1950 s. There was finally light at the end of the tunnel and his insults you know enough fish that linked in finally stopping fast. Enough to slow down an infrastructure he could be kinda lame and he could have. In 1954 inactivated polio virus vaccination was introduced in 6. Its fully tested on several 100000 children but then just a few weeks later disaster struck live polio virus accidentally got into an inactivated virus vaccine the result tens of thousands of new polio cases in the us not surprisingly many parents then opted not to vaccinate their children but in the 1960 s. A new vaccination was developed and deemed to be safe. You had the added advantage that it could be taken orally which made it much easier to ensure comprehensive coverage for the population. More and more people were vaccinated including many adults the number of polio cases worldwide dropped dramatically the oral polio vaccine is still used in some countries today but it is now usually received as part of a combined shot including diptheria techniques and we think off. One small jab which immunizes a child against several serious illnesses. The fear of polio has been almost completely banished the disease has been nearly eliminated nearly but not quite. Polio is still present in afghanistan and pakistan in some muslim countries pressure from radical islamists has led people to refuse vaccinations. As a result polio has yet to be fully eradicated from the world. Polio does still exist in afghanistan and pakistan and recently there was a case in the philippines so how big is the danger that it spreads around the world again. Well that we have an increase of polio cases especially in pakistan and afghanistan prevents that news it is something that we have to take serious and because the human humans are the only reservoir for the virus so. Being able to control it in the red cape it should be something that would be most priority for the w. H. O. Absolutely because its very sad because you can prevent it with the nation but if you take a look into pakistan many parents are very afraid to actually meet their children because they heard in the social media that the might be some traces of pork meat in the vaccine or that it makes the children infertile so why is it so difficult to bring all of it seems to the mind of the people well the fear about vaccination is understandable because you are giving to a child something that seen as a danger and the child is healthy so it is understandable that theres this fear and also it is understandable to see to think about pork and pork ingredients in a big scene it is actually true that the process of developing the vaccine. That theyre using parts of greedy and from the pork and but this is completely washed out and Islamic Religious leaders say that they are no traces of pork left in the vaccine that its completely safe and ok to get back then it. Doesnt make you infertile know for sure not the nation theres no case they actually of infertility due to vaccination its actually the other way around if youre not getting vaccinated for some of those viruses those viruses can make an photo. About 1500000. 00 children die each year from Infectious Diseases which could have been prevented by vaccination so its very important to start fixing this. Campaigns like units have to pass. No path is too rugged no mountain too high for the United Nations International Childrens Emergency Fund or unicef its teams will go the distance for any child in countries like yemen devastated by years of civil war unicef seeks to alleviate suffering by providing food and water and also through large scale vaccination campaigns. In regions torn apart by war or natural disasters children are rarely immunized. In the democratic republic of congo for example almost 5000 children under the age of 5 died from measles and 2900 quarter of a 1000000 were infected and that at a time when ebola was spreading infrastructure was failing and Health Centers were under attack. Unicef was still there to help like here in custody province. In the past we would go for 2 or 3 months without seeing a single case of measles but since the epidemic we are seeing one or 2 a day before the epidemic there were very rarely infectious. But its not just war and shortages that make the campaign Difficult People themselves have reservations but unicef teams do more than vaccinate they inform and educate as well. Explain the advantages of immunization of vaccinated child is protected and even if there is a sudden outbreak the child is still protected. Over 80 percent of the worlds children are vaccinated thanks in part to aid organizations such as unicef and Doctors Without Borders 80 percent may sound like a lot but its not enough in the case of missiles the vaccination rate needs to be 95 percent to ensure that everyone is protected. The efforts to eradicate the measles particularly treat and why is the. Not succeeding well measles is one of the most infectious and most contagious viruses that be no and simple smear infection it can be transmitted from one person to the other so you dont see the infection but its already present at the same time it is a virus that can actually be eradicated because humans are the only reservoir similar to your and so its a great effort trying to eradicate means of this because its such a deadly disease so its very very important to get yourself its a need to dickens teasels but what kind of fix nation should you hope to get well theres a whole list of vaccinations that you should consider or you should get because they are all pretty deadly diseases that includes paul you will that we talked about earlier but also a. Hepatitis b. Hepatitis a very subtle source. If you take a look at vaccine what is actually in it while in effect seen them simply put 2 ingredients on the one inside that they are like a part of the. Pathogen or the whole pathogen and at the same time the immune system needs a dangerous signal so often this is aluminum or something similar that the system to attack this pathogen in the future but if its a well its my life actually i dont care you say its very important that everybody gets to if one individual is this person is protected but the people around it need to be vaccinated that that newborn children or people that cannot get vaccinated because they have. Some other diseases like cancer they can be back to nato. Everybody or can be protected if everybody around it is being vaccinated because this herd immunity which the whole society is basically protecting the weak individuals if they give it seemed to a patient how does the immune system knows how to fight the pathogens well you have to see this kind of like a soccer training where the danger signal is the coach and immune system are the players so the coaches telling the players like how to play and how to win this battle or win the match its a very good explanation thank you for that in the year 2008 a young man travels from london to how book what he doesnt know is that he was infected by the measles because he doesnt feel well he goes to the hospital there 5 people get infected a construction worker carries the pathogen to bulgaria where 20000 people fall into at lightning speed and 24 of them die 2 years later the virus is still detectable in 11 European Countries until it can be finally stopped the story shows how important it is to fight the measles because this virus is very highly effective. People 2018. Many in the western german city were suffering from cold and flu like symptoms. Alex our is a paramedic he also began feeling unwell at 1st he thought he was coming down with flu in fact he had measles. The initial symptoms are similar fatigue a sore throat a cough at this point the virus is highly contagious measles is an airborne disease. Alex our went to his g. P. Who prescribed antibiotics for a sore throat because the initial symptoms of me. Easels are not distinctive it is often diagnosed late antibiotics dont help alex our felt worse and worse. The club about complete your body waste away ive never been run over by a steam roller but i imagine thats what it would feel like you cant do anything youre running a High Temperature youve got no appetite he will lose weight you sweat like crazy you cant sleep but youre not really awake either i felt helpless thats when i knew i had to do something positive. He called an ambulance and was taken to hospital there he developed a skin rash and doctors finally diagnosed measles alex our spent a week in hospital in an isolation room he had a temperature of over 40 degrees celsius and he developed an eye condition. As an icon if you have all these rules you get conjunctive itis in my case it got so bad that after 3 days i could hardly see anymore i could make out shapes but i couldnt focus stuff that was the most worrying thing i was pretty terrified of or. Come on a. New cases of measles were being reported to the cologne Public Health authority every day anyone who had been in contact with those people had to be notified to contain the spread of the disease and. Thats a tried and must be issue from our point of view was that measles had spread through the city and that was a serious cause for concern on the south and certainly nothing that. A and e. Departments and doctors practices filled up with people presenting skin rashes by the time the rash appears measles patients will have been contagious for 5 days and theyre likely to infect anyone who isnt immunized against the disease some people have doubts about vaccines others are unaware that a measles vaccine exists or just have never got around to getting it. Unvaccinated people can become infected with the measles virus and spread it it can lead to pneumonia and other complaints. And once you can garnish off some patients cant even get up even some young people have had to stay in bed with incontinence pads for a week acute post measles and suffer like this is another potential complication but sometimes brain damage develops slowly and the effect only appears 7 or 8 years later that its fatal and nothing can be done so you modernists on more to it as. The authorities in cologne struggled to contain the outbreak the Public Health office resorted to drastic measures. Temporary vaccination stations were set up across the city doctors checked vaccination records and dispensed advice and if necessary administered the vaccine. Most people suffer no side effects. Some 10 percent might see swelling or redness around the injection site fever or headaches joint or muscle pain the strategy was successful the infection curve flattened. After a week of raised temperature pain not sleeping or eating and doing nothing fearing for my life feeling panicky and helpless my advice to anyone would be go to the doctor test if your immune if not get vaccinated. Alex our recovered but since then hes had to wear glasses the Measles Outbreak in cologne past but the disease has by no means been eradicated in some countries vaccinations are mandatory and some countries discuss about this so whats your take on mandatory vaccinations well its always better the nation is voluntarily but we as a society i think we also have a responsibility that we are getting vaccinated and protect those individuals that do not get wrecked or cannot get back the native from those infections now overall i think its the last measure that can be taken for to have it mandatory but it can also read that if you have many vaccination for some. Pathogens that youre not getting vaccinated against the other ones most parents get their children vaccinated but many of them get that they have to refresh the vaccination so what kind of fix seems to we have to take as an adult it is 1st of all important that some of the pathogens you only need to be vaccinated once but for others you need to have a refreshment of the vaccination for example for diphtheria the vaccination usually is documented in the kind of pos pretty its an International Community asian affects of asians here from germany but what would be if i would lose the structure. Well then you should go to your primary care physician because he can make a. Measurement in the laboratory and actually test but that you have protected against those pathogens all not so you say that it seems as if you save but what about in the middle because theres a great discussion about this here in germany. Well those studies actually falls it has been suggested that for example aluminum brings autism to the children this is completely false and studies have shown repeatedly that aluminum doesnt actually how the individuals and if you compare like getting illumine in your body by for example having a barbecue in aluminum foil just leaking off the. Cover of like the your gourd cup you also take in more aluminum then and it was seen. We humans always dream about defeating cancer and this dream might even become true when you look at Cervical Cancer and the solution could be. Viruses can cause cancer this trailblazing insight ultimately and the man who discovered it the nobel prize for medicine in 2008 for his heart so hausen had been researching the human papilloma virus the virus is generally transmitted hearing sex if the immune system doesnt fight it off it can trigger Cervical Cancer but also tumors in the back of the mouth and throat on the penis and anus but for the past 13 years an h. P. V. Vaccination has been available to mention if we inoculated the entire human population and eradicated this virus we could wipe it off the face of the earth as we have done with smallpox or at least the types of the virus that we can vaccinate against at the moment. A vaccination against cancer some countries have also been inoculating boys in recent years 10 year old lay on is getting his 1st h. P. V. Jab from his pediatrician at this age its particularly effective the immune system reacts very strongly to the vaccine. As we try to give the vaccination as early as possible that is by the age of 14 that has the advantage that we need to administer to vaccinations and children at that age are unlikely to have had their 1st sexual encounters and have faced the danger of infection and. Doctors recommend that the h. P. V. Vaccination be given between the age of 9 and 14 as its been shown to work best if its administered then. So that it. But take up is still low in many countries even though the vaccine is safe and effective. The immunologist and. Says that h. P. V. Vaccination makes sense for everyone he says the body can cope with most viruses but our immune responses dont generally offer long lasting protection. For nutrition if we know that in the case of a natural infection the immune response is low and doesnt last so a person can get infected by the same type of virus again the h. P. V. Vaccination produces a much stronger immune response and offers protection that lasts a very long time at least 10 to 16 years i predict that the vaccination will actually afford lifelong protections. Maybe no very long term studies as yet but doctors such as gynecologist. Advise women to get the vaccination if theyve had suspicious cells removed from their cervix. Who this is based on sound Scientific Evidence a large randomized study showed women in this position who have vaccinated had less chance of recurrence and women who are not. Immunologist and i ask of money is certain that there are other high risk groups who would benefit from the h. P. V. Vaccination besides women who have Cervical Cancer or its proceeding stages. Sint it would definitely make sense to vaccinate people who are hiv positive i suppose you will harm or who have a compromised immune system either because of a genetic predisposition or due to medication like Rheumatoid Arthritis sufferers. Or those with auto immune diseases. Covered in a vegan has 2 daughters both have had the h. P. V. Vaccination. But it was news to her that she might also benefit if. Down here and i didnt realize that you could also get it done at a more advanced stage of course its worth considering. Isnt it. Gynaecologist fun score netsky advisors women whove already had cervical abnormalities or have a history of cancer in the family to get the jab. He doesnt see why h. P. V. Vaccination shouldnt work in later life. For example you can also get vaccinated against pneumonia against new cockle infections from 60 or you can get a flu jab in later life and the immune response is good so we can also assume an h. P. V. Vaccination would be pretty effective when youre older. We now know of over 200 different types of Human Papillomavirus but existing vaccines target only the few strains which cause the most infections scientists like on the last call from on are working hard to develop new ones that also tackle other dangerous h. P. V. Types that goal is to protect all men and women from cancer caused by the Human Papillomavirus worldwide and regardless of their age. Why should boys also be vaccinated against h. P. V. Well 1st of all men are the ones who can transmit it to woman to get h. P. V. Infected. As you talk about it. Solidarity we should all get vaccinated against h. P. V. Or woman gets over cancer at the same time men can also get cancer from h. P. V. Infection so it can cause cancer and cause cancer and both diseases that can be prevented through vaccination and now theres some new vaccines in the pipeline which we can look forward to while they are plenty of pick things in the pipeline 1st of all and i think one of the most pressing one is that as weve seen. A virus that can cause really severe. Pneumonia in children and newborns and. It is actually often a lethal disease so having a big scene against this virus would be really great and it would be very efficacious for everyone but at the same time we have scenes that are being developed and actually also licensed against. Many of the scenes so because its the most efficacious and most Cost Effective way to prevent an infection and did read to kate those Infectious Diseases thank you so much for the interesting talks and if youre ever in the lynn and with the German Technology museum and we see each other again next week then its to stay in good shape.
