In this episode, we lead with our article of the week from the New England Journal of Medicine examining the noninferiority of a single-dose HPV vaccine compared with the standard two-dose regimen. We then dive into a detailed edition of The Scan, discussing how oral semaglutide is reshaping routine obesity visits and the real-world challenges of daily medication adherence. The conversation turns to the rise of AI deepfake doctors and the growing threat posed by counterfeit injectable medications circulating online. Next, we break down highlights from CES 2026, including new longevity-focused smart scales capable of generating sixty biomarkers in a single scan. We close with an analysis of how television medical dramas misrepresent CPR and why this portrayal may negatively affect bystander response in real-world emergencies.
