My Link Tree can be found at: https://linktr.ee/CauseofDeathpod Hello and welcome to Cause of Death – 100 Seconds to Midnight. I’m your host, Jackie Moranty. This episode is going to be a little different since I’m going to give you a glimpse into my life. I normally try to keep my personal life out of the podcast, or at least limit it to entertaining anecdotes that are related to whatever topic I’ve chosen to teach you about. This time, you’re going to be immersed in a personal journey that I’ve been experiencing over the last couple of years. This story will hopefully, give you all some insight about the American healthcare system and the ways that it fails us. It’s 90 Seconds to Midnight and in one of the most powerful countries in the world, only two classes of people can afford healthcare, the very rich and the very poor. I’ve taken the link to my GoFundMe out since I’ve met my goal. Thank you all so much for donating. https://agentsync.io/blog/loa/the-history-of-health-insurance-past-present-and-future https://www.healthsystemtracker.org/chart-collection/u-s-spending-healthcare-changed-time/#Annual%20change%20in%20price%20and%20quantity%20indexes%20of%20health%20services,%201980-2022,%20index%20numbers%202017=100 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK500098/ https://developmentalpolitics.org/platform-of-policy-recommendations/homelessness-in-the-u-s/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw2Je1BhAgEiwAp3KY71ecsxQGxcCSgQ_9r1NC6z_hyPTyzahtd011WpvpffS2uHLdELsT4BoCRCUQAvD_BwE https://www.audacy.com/wwjnewsradio/news/national/medical-debt-is-forcing-people-into-homelessness https://consumers4qualitycare.org/medical-debt-puts-housing-out-of-reach-for-millions-of-consumers/#:~:text=Nearly%20half%20of%20those%20people,likelihood%20of%20experiencing%20poor%20health.   Music: Time Off by Damma Beatz You can reach me on: Instagram: @CauseofDeathpod Threads: @causeofdeathpodcast FB: @COD100Secs Twitter: @CauseofDeath10 TikTok: @causeofdeath100secs Please don’t forget to rate and review on any of the platforms found here: www.causeofdeath100secs.net You can support Cause of Death here: Subscribe on Apple Subscriptions Patreon: https://www.Patreon.com/JackieMoranty Ko-Fi: https://www.ko-fi.com/causeofdeathluckycharmsunplugg Merch can be found at: https://www.teepublic.com/user/causeofdeathluckycharmsunplugged Please share this podcast with everyone you know.

My Link Tree can be found at: https://linktr.ee/CauseofDeathpod This has been my podversary episode. Three years ago, I had an idea that I could mix my passion for infectious disease with history and help others understand how governments, citizens and researchers view disease. Two years ago, I added the 100 Seconds to Midnight episodes to introduce the concept of global disaster. This year, I’m sprinkling in a bit of humor to break up the infectious disease and disaster.

The US doesn’t experience much terrorism, we’ve had several attacks on US soil, but for the most part, we’ve had far less than other countries experience. In modern day terrorist attacks, the goal is to spread fear by directing violence against innocent victims. These attacks can be initiated by a government, a radical group, liberationists or “freedom fighters”. They attack anywhere with no warning making people wonder, “Could I be next?” You can reach me on the website at www.causeofdeath100secs.net or you can email me at Jackie@causeofdeath100secs.net.

I’m often asked to talk about Global Warming, my answer to that is that I do. I talk about it in almost every 100 Seconds to Midnight episode. Global Warming either influences or affects just about everything that makes the clock tick down in one way or another. Today, I’m going to talk about global warming again. Specifically, how it affects infectious disease. It’s 90 seconds to midnight and across the world, the temperature is rising. Not only are old diseases rearing their heads, but new diseases are making their way into humanity. They’re coming with a vengeance, and we are not prepared.

For hundreds of years before Germ Theory was discovered, people were trying to find an explanation for the plagues and pestilence that followed them. As millions succumbed to the Black Plague, leprosy, rabies, and tuberculosis, there was no rhyme or reason for the death and destruction. They didn’t understand bacteria, viruses or parasites. Even through the 1800s, people thought that disease was caused by the wrath of some vengeful god, or a curse from an evil foe. Not only that, but they believed that the people who contracted these diseases were possessed of some demon. They turned into vampires or werewolves.

While I don’t condone the wholesale legalization of every drug available, I do condone decriminalization and treatment. The US has begun to move in that direction, but it moves slowly and contrary to popular belief, not all people are created equal. Drug treatment isn’t available to all. Marginalized communities, especially, people of color and the impoverished are left behind.

Hello and welcome to Cause of Death – 100 Seconds to Midnight. I’m your host, Jackie Moranty. In the last 50 years we’ve lost more than 4,000 species that are vital to their habitats. These animals played an important role in the support of their ecosystems. Some were predators and some were prey, but they all had one natural enemy: Man. As humans grew in numbers, these animals were overhunted, exposed to pesticides, and driven into smaller and smaller habitats. The land was needed for the King of the Beasts. It’s 90 seconds to midnight, and our wildlife suffers under the heavy burden of human encroachment. From logging to drilling for oil, overdevelopment of wild lands to water diversion, animals are disappearing, never to be seen again.

Hello and welcome to Cause of Death – 100 Seconds to Midnight. I’m your host, Jackie Moranty. I changed my mind mid-script. I decided that I needed to finish this season with a 100 Seconds to Midnight Episode on extinction. I thought that would be more appropriate, so this week, I’m going to talk about the last disease in this season. We’re going to look at Whirling Disease in Fish. Let’s begin with etiology and pathology. This will be a new pathogen for us. Myxobolus cerebralis is a myxozoan parasite. Whirling disease is caused by the actinosporean spores of the parasite Myxobolus cerebralis. This parasite has a complex two-host lifecycle. The parasite alternates between the sludge worm, Tubifex tubifex and the salmonid host. I’ve hit 15,000 downloads! That’s a big deal. I never thought this podcast would attract as many listeners as it does and I want to thank everyone for coming back and passing the word.

Hello and welcome to Cause of Death – 100 Seconds to Midnight. Before we get started, I want to welcome my latest Patron to the family. Welcome Elizabeth! I’m so happy to have you here! I thought that since we talked about White Nose Disease in bats last time, we could just hop on over to Frog Fungal Disease this time. There is nothing like going to the river in spring. The frogs are sending their mating calls back and forth. The males are trying to sing their best songs to attract females, and they’re measuring up the other males to see if they really want to battle for the female they’ve chosen. Frogs are both a keystone species and an indicator species in their environments. Keystone species are vital to their environments. If we lose a keystone species, the entire ecosystem will fail. Frogs provide food for several species including birds, fish, monkeys and snakes. As tadpoles, they eat algae which helps regulate blooms and reduce the risk of algal contamination. As they metamorphose from tadpoles into frogs, they become more carnivorous, and this means that they eat a lot of bugs. They can eat up to 100 insects in a day. O.K., so not quite as impressive as the bat, but still, that’s a lot of bugs. The larger the frog, the larger the prey. Some species can eat animals as big as snakes and birds. So, maybe you didn’t want to hear that part, but it does show that frogs are an important part of the food chain as predator and prey. Frogs are also an indicator species. If you listen to the Greed and Avarice episode on chemical spills and the environment, I talked a bit about researchers walking the stream where the train derailment occurred in Ohio. They were looking for dead fish and frogs. You can reach me on the website at http://www.causeofdeath100secs.net or you can email me at mailto:Jackie@causeofdeath100secs.net.
