      TWiV 1290: Clinical update with Dr. Daniel Griffin
      Jan 24 2026
      In his weekly clinical update, Dr. Griffin and Vincent Racaniello discuss screwworm, how the shingles vaccination slows biological aging (for all of you who want to reset 'the clock' and live forever…..you know who you are Musk, Bezos) and getting one dose of the HPV vaccine, then Dr. Griffin then deep dives into recent statistics on RSV, influenza and SARS-CoV-2 infections, the Wasterwater Scan dashboard, Johns Hopkins measles tracker, how losing our elimination status is the cost of doing business (going for broke is never a good business model !) where to find PEMGARDA, how to access and pay for Paxlovid, long COVID treatment center, the effectiveness of this season's influenza vaccine, where to go for answers to your long COVID questions and contacting your federal government representative to stop the assault on science and biomedical research.
