đ TPS55 MAKE BARRINGTON GREAT AGAIN | Sunetra Gupta, Carl Heneghan TRAILER
The Popular Show
REVISIT pt.5 of our Christmas 'Harms of Lockdown' miniseries. To listen to this series finale, become a subscriber at Patreon.com/ThePopularPod. The Great Barrington Declaration, calling for an end to lockdowns and a new regime of targeted care was published in October 2020, and immediately tarred as a byword for libertarian callousness and pseudoscience. We spoke to one of its authors, Sunetra Gupta (professor of theoretical epidemiology, University of Oxford) and a prominent signatory, Carl Heneghan (director of the University of Oxford's Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine), about their contribution to debates around non-pharmaceutical interventions, where the mainstream consensus on the pandemic has gone wrong, and the misconceptions about their personal politics and funding. Prof Gupta and Prof Heneghan also give THEIR FIRST description of the notorious summit with Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak, which allegedly resulted in the UK's refusal of a 'circuit breaker' lockdown in Autumn 2020.

4. An Enduring Bond between Father and Daughter, Sunetra Gupta
Our Voices
We learn about the special bond between father and daughter. Sunetra recounts how her father, Dhruba, has been a life-long inspiration. She also discusses how she and her own daughters have embraced the values he espoused. It all began back in India when she would discuss politics and art with her father and his friends. Now she has a fulfilling career in the UK and her fatherâs influence continues to loom large. âyour real goals are to achieve happiness, fulfilment, and to be able to care for others and to be able to do something that makes you feel like youâve achieved your purpose in life. And that's not something anyone can endorse externally.â *********************Huge thanks to our sponsor, The Royal Yachting Association (RYA) Visit the RYA website to find your local club and get involved*********************Check out the Our Voices website for more on this storyWe're also on Facebook, Twitter and InstagramA Fascinate Production

The Evolution of Diversity in Pathogens and the How Theoretical Variations Pose Threats with Sunetra Gupta
Finding Genius Podcast
How can mathematical models help us better understand how we can combat the evolution of diseases? By understanding how the development progresses, we may be able to alleviate the burden of disease on humankind. Press play to learn: How a single vaccine could protect against all strains of influenza Why a universal vaccine could be effective Possible roadblocks in developing a universal vaccine Sunetra Gupta, a Professor of Theoretical Epidemiology at the University of Oxford, shares her work developing treatments to keep up with the development of various diseases and illnesses. Developing vaccines for various therapeutic applications has been a standard solution to combat illness in a specific period. However, as viruses and other "bugs" evolve, vaccines can become ineffective over time. However, by identifying commonalities between various strains of a virus, developing a more applicable treatment may be possible. For example, if viruses were viewed as wearing different clothing outfits over evolutions, identifying a common item of clothing throughout iterations can be incredibly valuable.

She has been an outspoken critic of the British government's approach to tackling the COVID-19 pandemic, and is here to discuss the concept of pandemic disease in general as well as lessons we have learnt from COVID and how we can improve our response to pathogenic outbreaks in future. Prof. Gupta is currently fostering a collaborative effort to gain insights into the collateral effects of COVID-19 control measures globally and gathering ideas for how we can better approach pandemics in future.
