2022 annual review

What can I say... except that I’m feeling defeated amidst the storm of eugenic gaslighting and COVID minimization constantly swirling around us. It is a dark time to be in public health, but it’s even more devastating when your own field turns against its own alleged values. To those still holding the line and speaking our truths, I echo your defiance.

I’ll continue to show up day after day and do my best.

Vaccines

This headlines regarding the U.S. measles outbreak are alarming: U.S. officials say measles cases hit 25-year record high (The Washington Post). The controversy and consequences surrounding vaccination are of concern and lead us to feature the following books about vaccines throughout history and in current parenting guides:  

 THE VACCINE RACE: SCIENCE, POLITICS, AND THE HUMAN COSTS OF DEFEATING DISEASE by Meredith Wadman

Meredith Wadman’s masterful account recovers not only the science of this urgent race, but the political roadblocks that nearly stopped the scientists. It also tells a profoundly human story about the agony of pregnant women exposed to German measles; the ethics of testing on infants, orphans, and mentally disabled children; the war (still raging) over using human fetal tissue in research; and yet another unrecognized woman whose cells have been used to save countless lives. It tracks the arrival of big commerce into campus labs and the huge changes that occurred in attitudes and laws governing who could make money from biological inventions.

 THE VACCINATION PICTURE by Timothy Caulfield

Using science-informed analysis alongside original art and powerful essays, health science leader Timothy Caulfield debunks the myths and false assumptions about vaccination safety and effectiveness. Accessible, informative, and entertaining, The Vaccination Picture tells the true story of vaccines, their uses, and their positive effects for everyone.

 SPLENDID SOLUTION: JONAS SALK AND THE CONQUEST OF POLIO by Jeffrey Kluger

In medical school when Franklin Delano Roosevelt was diagnosed with the disease shortly before assuming the Presidency, Jonas Salk was given an impetus to conduct studies on polio. His progress in combating the virus was hindered by the politics of medicine and by a rival researcher determined to discredit his proposed solution. But Salk’s perseverance made history-and for more than fifty years his vaccine has saved countless lives, bringing humanity close to eradicating polio throughout the world.

 THE PARENTS’ CONCISE GUIDE TO CHILDHOOD VACCINATIONS, SECOND EDITION by Lauren Feder

The latest available information on vaccinations for children (including the meningococcal, HPV vaccinations and rotavirus), as well the most-up-to date schedules and additional information parents need to know to help them make the right decisions regarding vaccines. Regardless of where you stand on the issue of childhood vaccination, everyone agrees that the health of our children is paramount. The Parents’ Concise Guide to Childhood Vaccinations, Second Edition is your complete guide to making sure your child gets the proper care at this important time in their development.

 THE VACCINE-FRIENDLY PLAN: DR. PAUL’S SAFE AND EFFECTIVE APPROACH TO IMMUNITY AND HEALTH-FROM PREGNANCY THROUGH YOUR CHILD’S TEEN YEARS by Paul Thomas, M.D.

An accessible and reassuring guide to childhood health and immunity from a pediatrician who’s both knowledgeable about the latest scientific research and respectful of a family’s risk factors, health history, and concerns

“A valuable, science-supported guide to optimizing your child’s health while you navigate through complex choices in a toxic, challenging world.”—Martha Herbert, M.D., Ph.D., Harvard Medical School

DESCRIPTION BOOK : Until the late 1960s, tens of thousands of American children suffered crippling birth defects if their mothers had been exposed to rubella, popularly known as German measles, while pregnant; there was no vaccine and little understanding of how the disease devastated fetuses. In June 1962, a young biologist in Philadelphia, using tissue extracted from an aborted fetus from Sweden, produced safe, clean cells that allowed the creation of vaccines against rubella and other common childhood diseases. Two years later, in the midst of a devastating German measles epidemic, his colleague developed the vaccine that would one day wipe out homegrown rubella. The rubella vaccine and others made with those fetal cells have protected more than 150 million people in the United States, the vast majority of them preschoolers. The new cells and the method of making them also led to vaccines that have protected billions of people around the world from polio, rabies, chicken pox, measles, hepatitis A,

The relationship between telomeres and ageing has emerged as immensely complex. The running-down of telomeres in cells in the lab does not translate as the simple, unitary cause of the ageing of entire organisms, including human beings. For one thing, unlike cells in culture that grow to their Hayflick limits and then stop dividing, most of the cells in our bodies divide rarely. These cells probably do not come close to running down their telomeres in the course of our life spans - something that Hayflick’s work with those specimens from multiage cadavers back in 1965 pointed to quite clearly. (Remember the lung cells from the eighty-seven-year-old cadaver that divided another twenty-nine times in culture?) What’s more, we now know that the ageing of our cells is also likely mediated by mechanisms that can bypass telomeres entirely, like chronic inflammation and something called oxidative stress, in which toxic by-products of cellular metabolism directly damage proteins and other cell components. […] Today biologists are probing basic questions like these: What exactly tips telomeres from being dangerously short into being nonfunctional? What precisely happens to them, at the molecular level, as they hit the Hayflick limit? And when this happens, what complicated symphony of cellular signalling actually causes the cell to stop dividing? Each new answer they find opens up an ever-deeper set of questions. In December 2009 in Stockholm, King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden presented [Elizabeth] Blackburn, [Carol] Greider, and [Jack] Szostak with the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for their discovery of how chromosomes are protected by telomeres and of the enzyme telomerase. Hayflick had described a phenomenon. The Nobel trio had explained it.

The Vaccine Race

Just finished reading The Vaccine Race, by Meredith Wadman, and as an individual involved in virus research and vaccine design, I think I have to recommend it. It’s all about the history of vaccines, in particular following the development of human cell cultures to be used for manufacturing vaccines. 

A more thorough list of subjects covered is: vaccine design, history of cell culture, use of fetal cells for research, ethical failings of biomedical research (human trials, informed consent, questions of ownership of cells etc), the politics shaping the meandering path of research (how a single idea branches into many others), cell aging, political machination making stumbling blocks for progress, and the development of the biomedical academic/industry worlds today. 

It should be pretty accessible, I think, to anyone regardless of science background. Wadman does a good job of not shying away from technicalities while still explaining them. I thought the book was fascinating and non-superficial, and I currently make my living from this stuff.

I think the two biggest takeaways for me from this book were 1. How grateful I am for the progress we’ve made in science in the last fifty years, and 2. Awe and regret for just how much of that progress was made through the mistreatment of people - patients, test subjects, the general public, scientists, etc. It was very cool to read about how much more advanced the techniques I use every day are and how much is still the same as fifty years ago (I am so, so thankful I do not have to mouth pipette cancerous human cells). On the other hand, when you consider the long history of failing to get informed consent, experimenting on vulnerable populations, political maneuvering preventing research on better vaccines and keeping dangerous practices in place, and general misinformation, it really begins to make sense why so many people are opposed to vaccines today. There’s still a lot of work to do on the part of scientists and medical professionals to be transparent, respectful and vigilant in our communications with the public - and we must stay aware of how our work impacts others and really face the ethical dilemmas head-on (there’s not always a good solution, but better to try to find one than to pretend the question doesn’t exist). Things are definitely a lot better today than they were then, but it does make you think. 

Anyway, good science book, go read it. And then talk to me about viruses and science so I don’t have to talk to my cell cultures. They’re not good conversationalists.
