The children who remember their past lives

I've known for some time about the qualitative research done regarding young children who seem to recall past lives. Of course such research cannot provide the empirical evidence that double-blind controlled studies can provide, but it nonetheless raises some provocative questions. This is a gift🎁link, so you can read all of the article, even if you don't subscribe to The Washington Post. Below are some excerpts from the article:

Two-year-old Aija had invented plenty of fictional characters before, but her parents — Ross, a musician, and Marie, a psychologist — noticed right away that Nina was different.... From the time Aija learned how to talk, she talked about Nina, and her descriptions were remarkably consistent. Aija told her parents that Nina played piano, and she loved dancing, and she favored the color pink (Aija emphatically did not). When Aija spoke as Nina, in the first person, Aija’s demeanor changed: Her voice was sweeter and higher-pitched, her affect more gentle and polite than what Marie and Ross typically expected from their rambunctious toddler. [...] It all seemed more curious than concerning — until one afternoon in the early spring of 2021, when Marie came to believe that there was something more to Nina. That day, Marie recalls, she and Aija were playing together in their living room, enacting little scenes with toy figurines. Then Aija suddenly turned to her mother and said, “Nina has numbers on her arm, and they make her sad.” Marie’s mind raced. “What did you say?” she asked her daughter, willing her voice to remain calm. “Nina has numbers on her arm, and they make her sad,” Aija said again, pointing to the inside of her forearm. Then she added: “Nina misses her family. Nina was taken away from her family.” [...] Marie knows how this story might sound, and she is exceedingly careful about sharing it. Marie also knows that she is not alone — that since the 1960s,more than 2,200 children from across the world have described apparent recollections from a previous life, all documented in a database maintained by the Division of Perceptual Studies within the Department of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia School of Medicine. Sometimes a child presents enough identifying information for relatives or researchers to pinpoint a deceased person, but that level of specificity is elusive; about a third of the cases in the database do not include such a match. [...] Certain consistent patterns have emerged: The most pronounced and convincing cases, Stevenson and Tucker both found, tend to occur in children between the ages of 2 and 6. They might suddenly describe places they have never been, people they have never met, sometimes using words or phrases that seem beyond their vocabulary. Nightmares or sleep disturbances are occasionally reported. Many of these children are highly verbal, and start speaking earlier than their peers. Their descriptions of past-life recollections often fade away entirely by the time the child turns 7 or 8.

By now everybody has heard the horror stories about learning loss suffered during the pandemic.

Shutting down schools for months or more, it turns out, wasn’t such a hot idea. Who could have guessed? Politicians are scrambling to escape blame, parents are getting madder by the minute, and editorialists are doing their chin-stroking think pieces about how unfortunate this all is–as if they weren’t at least as blameworthy for the crisis as anyone.

Yet the pediatric education crisis is only the most obvious of the many horrible consequences of the COVID fascist policies. Doctors on the front lines of pediatric medicine are being taught a real-time lesson in reality: immune systems work by fighting off bugs, developing defenses through exposure to bacteria and viruses. Because of this fact, the 2+ years of making children into “bubble boys” protected from every disease has made many children defenseless against the everyday bugs that plague everybody.

Katherine Wu at The Atlantic tells the tale:

At the height of the coronavirus pandemic, as lines of ambulances roared down the streets and freezer vans packed into parking lots, the pediatric emergency department at Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Hospital, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, was quiet. It was an eerie juxtaposition, says Chris Woodward, a pediatric-emergency-medicine specialist at the hospital, given what was happening just a few doors down. While adult emergency departments were being inundated, his team was so low on work that he worried positions might be cut. A small proportion of kids were getting very sick with COVID-19—some still are—but most weren’t. And due to school closures and scrupulous hygiene, they weren’t really catching other infections—flu, RSV, and the like—that might have sent them to the hospital in pre-pandemic years. Woodward and his colleagues couldn’t help but wonder if the brunt of the crisis had skipped them by. “It was, like, the least patients I saw in my career,” he told me. That is no longer the case.

Across the country, children have for weeks been slammed with a massive, early wave of viral infections—driven largely by RSV, but also flu, rhinovirus, enterovirus, and SARS-CoV-2. Many emergency departments and intensive-care units are now at or past capacity, and resorting to extreme measures.

At Johns Hopkins Children’s Center, in Maryland, staff has pitched a tent outside the emergency department to accommodate overflow; Connecticut Children’s Hospital mulled calling in the National Guard. It’s already the largest surge of infectious illnesses that some pediatricians have seen in their decades-long careers, and many worry that the worst is yet to come. “It is a crisis,” Sapna Kudchadkar, a pediatric-intensive-care specialist and anesthesiologist at Johns Hopkins, told me. “It’s bananas; it’s been full to the gills since September,” says Melissa J. Sacco, a pediatric-intensive-care specialist at UVA Health. “Every night I turn away a patient, or tell the emergency department they have to have a PICU-level kid there for the foreseeable future.”

Of all the viruses out there to worry about, COVID-19 should have been near the bottom of the list of concern when it comes to children. Rather than using intelligence and reason, policymakers and some parents who got freaked out by the COVIDiots shoved every child they could into a germ free bubble to protect them from a disease that wasn’t terribly dangerous for them.

Many doctors knew that this was insanely stupid, but few had the courage to speak up. And those who did were vilified mercilessly. Some had their license to practice medicine threatened–including Minnesota’s current candidate for governor Scott Jensen.

For a while it seemed a miracle happened: kids weren’t quite so snot-nosed as usual. See! Protection works!

The long-term result? Kids are more vulnerable to diseases to which they should have developed immunity by now. And they are getting worse cases, more frequently, and winding up in understaffed pediatric ICU units. Pediatric ICU units that had often cut staff and beds because demand during the pandemic was abnormally low.

One of the great lies of public policy is that there needn’t be any trade-offs. Everything can be a win-win. Yet usually that is not the case. In the real world you balance risks vs rewards, costs vs benefits, and find messy solutions for even messier problems. People get sick, have accidents, deal with tragedies. You do what you can, but life inevitably happens. You can mitigate risks, but not eliminate them. And often you have to balance competing risks.

Yet with COVID, policy makers took the exact opposite approach, treating the virus as the ultimate evil and everything else was worth sacrificing to reduce COVID infections. This was always insane.

From the beginning of the pandemic it was obvious who was at most risk–very old and very sick people–and we should have focused our energies on protecting the people at most risk. Everybody else needed to get on with our lives.

We did the opposite. Politicians put COVID patients into nursing homes, killing off thousands of people prematurely. And at the same time they demanded children be isolated–shut up in homes planted in front of a computer to get their now revealed-to-be-worthless “education.” Not only was COVID not particularly dangerous to these kids, but lack of exposure to the unavoidable illnesses of childhood has left the kids more vulnerable to severe illness and death from common viruses.

Early on in the pandemic I got involved in the anti-lockdown movement, and I was struck by how taboo it became to refer to the immune system as a defense against illness. It was not uncommon to be accused of the most vile motives for suggesting that natural immunity can be a good and necessary thing. Vaccines depend upon stimulating the immune system, not some magic hocus pocus.

Our masters in politics and the media decided to bet on the magic, and everybody else is paying the price.

As I wrote yesterday, some are now calling for a COVID amnesty–a mass forgiveness for all the harm done by the COVID policy madness. My answer is no, not because making mistakes is unforgivable. All of us make mistakes and we all deserve more than a bit of grace when we do.

My answer is “hell no” because the COVID fascists at the top knew that what they were doing was wrong–how could they not after it became obvious?–and did it anyway. For money. For power. To transform society to their liking. That is unforgivable.

If the powers-that-be want amnesty then we need a “truth and reconciliation commission,” as they did in South Africa after Apartheid fell. Lay it all out on the table. The good. The bad. The ugly. The people who did this need to be exposed and to beg forgiveness.

Short of that, my solution is to politically destroy every COVID fascist politician and grind their careers into the dust.

What really is unforgivable about all this is that progressive adults were willing to inflict this horror on children for their own false sense of security.

I'm going back to Galar tommorow to visit me mum and brother for the weekend.

He's graduating from his current school and might be coming to Uva/Naranja next year with me! I'm super proud of him.

I'm just not looking forward to taking a train for nine hours... eek ;;

But I got a new game to play on my handheld console so I should hopefully be okay! I might have to take my pain medicine a little earlier than usual though so I can avoid motion sickness... blech

📆 19 Jan 2024 📰 What is ‘immunity theft’? How certain illnesses can leave you more vulnerable to other infections.

Having a COVID-19 infection can shore up your immunity to the virus, but can it also leave you more susceptible to getting sick with other illnesses? That's the theory laid out in a new scientific paper in JAMA Medical News and Perspectives, which looks at a possible tie between COVID and the recent surge in respiratory illnesses. The term “immunity theft” is being used to describe this phenomenon, although it hasn't been well-studied at this point.

It's important to point out that “immunity theft” is not a medical term. However, it's used to describe the theory that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, “steals” immunity, leaving some people who have had the virus more vulnerable to other infections.

Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious disease specialist and professor at the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, tells Yahoo Life that the idea of immunity theft is a “fascinating hypothesis,” but notes that there isn't a lot of science to back it up at this point.

Still, he says there is some data to suggest this could be real. “There is preliminary data from the field that would suggest that, if you've had a serious communicable disease, you may be more vulnerable to another infection for a period of time,” Schaffner says.

Can immunity theft happen with other health conditions?

Yes, say experts. People who get measles, for example, “lose immune protection against other infections” for a period of time afterward, Dr. Patrick Jackson, an infectious disease physician at UVA Health, tells Yahoo Life. “The measles virus infects immune cells that give us long-lasting immune memory and wipes them out," he explains. Schaffner agrees. “Measles infection clearly seems to have some impact on the immune system,” he says, noting that people can have more vulnerability to other infectious diseases for months after having measles.

The phenomenon can also happen with the flu, Russo says. “Post-influenza, you have a period of time where people may get better and then develop a bacterial superinfection,” he says. “That's because the influenza infection suppresses the immune response, making individuals more susceptible.”

But Russo says it's “less well sorted out” whether this is also the case with COVID-19. “Immunity theft is a real thing that can happen,” says Jackson. “But I haven't seen convincing evidence this is a significant issue with SARS-CoV-2.”

The future of data science: Thoughts from Datapalooza 2023

What is data science?

Data science is a hot topic right now, but what does it mean and why should K-12 educators be paying attention to it? I went to Datapalooza 2023: The Future conference hosted by the UVA School of Data Science to learn more. 

As a K-12 computer science (CS) educator, I have considered data science to be part of CS, but it has also emerged as its own discipline. The UVA School of Data Science defines data science as the study of data and the methods used to learn from data. They also focus heavily on the interdisciplinary nature of the discipline that crosses boundaries between CS, math, and business with applications across other disciplines such as humanities, social and behavioral sciences, medicine, and architecture.

Several presenters described data science as having the potential to bring disciplines together for a purpose. What purpose is that? To gain insights, make predictions, and support data-based decision making in almost any field you can imagine.

There is a lot of attention on data science in large part because of the release of the latest round of generative AI models. In fact, ChatGPT had this to share when asked about the relationship between data science and AI - "data science and AI are interconnected disciplines where data science provides the foundational tools and techniques for working with data, and AI leverages these capabilities to build intelligent systems capable of learning and making decisions." 

The advancements in AI and data science are powerful and can have impacts, both positive and negative, on a massive scale. Mozilla has been considering the challenges of AI like how it exhibits bias, invades privacy, and reinforces existing power hierarchies and what trustworthy AI could look like, if it is designed to center privacy, transparency, and human well-being.

Why should K-12 educators be paying attention to data science?

I teach CS because I want students to become creators, and not just consumers of technology. The fascinating thing about the field of data science is that we are all participating in it as we generate vast amounts of data through social media use, fitness tracking, online learning tools, internet browsing, communication apps, gaming, device usage, content creation, location tracking and more. How much data are we generating? For a little perspective, in 2007 the digital universe was estimated to be a total of 281 billion gigabytes and the amount of digital information created had for the first time exceeded available capacity to permanently store it (Gantz et al., 2008). In 2023, it is estimated that 328.77 billion gigabytes of data are created every day (Statista). 

Because we are living in this the age of data, the message from Datapalooza is that data literacy needs to be as foundational as math and science in K-12 schools. In Virginia, K-12 educators can find data science standards as part of the K-12 computer science strand, Data and Analysis. In addition, Virginia adopted secondary mathematics data science standards in 2022. At the conference I also met a high school math teacher who is part of the pilot of a data science course along with 75 teachers across Virginia.

One thing I really appreciated about the conference is how passionately folks from the UVA School of Data Science talk about data science education. A few key takeaways that resonated with me:

Teaching calculus is not going to change much from year to year, but technologies are changing so fast that the focus of data science education needs to be on teaching students how to teach themselves. 

There can be a wide variability in student backgrounds related to data science, so it is important to create a healthy environment where students don’t feel like they need to compete with each other.

Leading with a project based on a real-world problem can provide the motivation students need to do what it takes to learn what they need to learn.

What is the future of data science?

I am hopeful for the future of data science education because it is so new. That has its own challenges for sure, but it also offers the opportunity to do things differently. There are persistent, pervasive, and problematic gender and racial gaps in CS education and technology fields (Cerf & Johnson, 2016; DuBow, W. & Gonzalez, 2020; Grover & Pea, 2013; Margolis et al., 2012). As the founder of Tech-Girls it often feels like we are applying bandages to a broken system. I’m excited that the vibe at Datapalooza was to acknowledge the challenges being faced and to lean into integration and the interdisciplinary nature of data science. You can learn more about the future of data science education in the UVA School of Data Science with Brian Wright, Director of the Undergraduate Program on the Once Upon a Tech podcast.

Storing fat at the waist may NOT up diabetes risk surprise findings indicate

The unexpected discovery provides a more nuanced view of the role of obesity in diabetes and related health conditions. It also could pave the way for more personalized medicine — treatments tailored to the individual. For example, doctors might prioritize weight loss for patients whose genes put them at increased risk but place less emphasis on it for patients with protective gene variants, the researchers say. “There is a growing body of evidence for metabolically healthy obesity. In this condition, people who would normally be at risk for cardiovascular diseases and diabetes because they are obese are actually protected from adverse effects of their obesity. In our study, we found a genetic link that may explain how this occurs in certain individuals,” said researcher Mete Civelek, PhD, of UVA’s Center for Public Health Genomics. “Understanding various forms of obesity is important to tailor treatments for individuals who are at high risk for adverse effects of obesity.” As medicine grows more sophisticated, understanding the role of naturally occurring gene variations will play an important role in ensuring patients get the best, most tailored treatments. The new work by Civelek and his team, for example, indicates that variants can simultaneously predispose some people to store fat at the abdomen — thought to put them at increased risk for a cluster of health problems called metabolic syndrome — while also protecting them from type 2 diabetes. (Metabolic syndrome raises the risk for diabetes, stroke and other serious health issues.) One of the metrics doctors use to determine if a patient has metabolic syndrome is abdominal obesity. This is often calculated by comparing the patient’s waist and hip measurements. But Civelek’s research suggest that, for at least some patients, it may not be that simple. In the future, doctors may want to check a patient’s genes to determine how to best guide the person down the road to good health. “We found that among the hundreds of regions in our genomes which increase our propensity to accumulate excess fat in our abdomens, there are five which have an unexpected role,” said Yonathan Aberra, the lead author of the study and a PhD candidate at UVA’s Department of Biomedical Engineering, a joint program of the School of Medicine and School of Engineering. “To our surprise, these five regions decrease an individual’s risk for type 2 diabetes.” In addition to producing surprising findings, Civelek’s research provides important new tools for his fellow researchers seeking to understand the complexities of gene variations. The sophisticated approach Civelek and his collaborators developed to identify the relevant variants and their potential effects will be useful for future research into metabolic syndrome and other conditions. The tools could also prove invaluable in the development of new and better treatments for metabolic syndrome, the scientists say. “We now need to expand our studies in more women and people from different genetic ancestries to identify even more genes that underlie the metabolically health obesity phenomenon,” Civelek said. “We plan to build on our findings to perform more experiments to potentially identify a therapeutic target.” The research was supported by the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, grant R01 DK118287; the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, grant T32 HL007284; the American Diabetes Association, grant 1-19-IBS-105; and the National Science Foundation’s Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation Bridge-to-the-Doctorate Virginia-North Carolina Alliance Fellowship.

Ayurveda is a traditional system of drug that began in India more than 5,000 years ago. It is based on the idea that the body, mind, and spirit are interconnected and that good health depends on a balance between these three elements.

In India, there are many schools that teach Ayurveda, both at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. These schools are recognized by the government of India and follow a standardized curriculum set by the Central Council of Indian Medicine (CCIM).

The Ayurveda curriculum includes subjects such as anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, pathology, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases. In addition to classroom lectures, students also gain practical experience through clinical training and internships.

Ayurveda schools in India are typically affiliated with a hospital or clinic, where students can observe and participate in the treatment of patients under the supervision of experienced practitioners.

After completing their education, graduates can obtain a license to practice Ayurveda from the CCIM and can work as doctors or researchers in the field of Ayurveda.

Ayurveda has gained popularity in recent years as an alternative form of medicine and is recognized as a system of medicine in India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.
