  • TWiV 1276: Clinical update with Dr. Daniel Griffin

    TWiV 1276: Clinical update with Dr. Daniel Griffin
    Dec 6 2025
    In his weekly clinical update, Dr. Griffin and Vincent Racaniello discuss the positive side effect of the shingles vaccine on dementia outcomes and how one dose of the HPV vaccine is non-inferior to two doses, but are dismayed about the FDA's secrecy around the inflammatory statement that the COVID-19 vaccine is linked to the death of 10 children. Dr. Griffin then deep dives into recent statistics on the measles epidemic, RSV, influenza and SARS-CoV-2 infections, the Wasterwater Scan dashboard, Johns Hopkins measles tracker, effectiveness of maternal administration of the RVS vaccine or the COVID vaccine for neonates, where to find PEMGARDA, how to access and pay for Paxlovid, long COVID treatment center, where to go for answers to your long COVID questions, how celiac plexus blocks improves gastrointestinal long COVID symptoms, brain alterations and neurodegenerative processes in long COVID cognitive impairment and contacting your federal government representative to stop the assault on science and biomedical research.
