A rare Ebola strain with no approved vaccine has killed over 100 in Congo and reached Uganda's capital. The declaration exposes how much of the global health architecture meant to contain it has already been dismantled.
The WHO's budget has been slashed by nearly $1 billion and its largest donor is walking out the door. Two outbreaks — one caused by a strain with no vaccine — are demanding an immediate response.
Three passengers dead, a 38 percent case fatality rate, and a luxury expedition vessel sailing into Rotterdam nearly empty. The Andes hantavirus outbreak is testing post-COVID health coordination — and it isn't over yet.
At least one American exposed to Ebola in Congo may have developed symptoms. The CDC was asked directly — and declined to answer.
The Ebola strain spreading across Congo and Uganda has no approved vaccine, no approved treatment, and no candidate vaccine ready for clinical trials. WHO just declared it an international emergency — but not a pandemic.
A new study found roughly 14% of British patients have bypassed their doctor entirely for a chatbot — not because AI is good medicine, but because getting an appointment is that hard.
The Ebola strain behind this outbreak has no approved vaccine or treatment. It has already killed 65 people in Congo and crossed into Uganda, where a man died in the capital, Kampala.
Sixty-five people are dead from a confirmed Ebola outbreak in eastern Congo and the exact viral strain is still unidentified. The region's armed groups have a documented history of attacking health facilities — the very infrastructure needed to contain the virus.
Government-approved AI note-taking tools used by 5,000 Ontario physicians routinely swapped drug names, fabricated referrals, and missed mental health details — and nobody tested them again after purchase.
The Supreme Court kept mifepristone flowing through the mail on Thursday — but the order is a stay, not a final ruling, and the case returns to a lower court that has already sided against the FDA.
For the first time, a drug has simultaneously reduced Alzheimer's tau pathology and slowed cognitive decline in the same study. Biogen is advancing it to Phase 3 — even though the trial failed its primary endpoint.
A French woman is on an artificial lung in Paris. Three cruise ship passengers are dead. The Andes hantavirus kills one in three people it infects — and the world's pandemic reflexes are already firing.
Roughly 41 million people with dementia have never been diagnosed. A routine blood draw just replaced the spinal taps and brain scans that stood in the way.
The Supreme Court gave itself three more days to decide the fate of telemedicine abortion access nationwide. Roughly one quarter of all US abortions happen through that channel — and the justices haven't figured out what to do yet.
The WHO recommends 42 days of quarantine for hantavirus-exposed passengers. The US opted for clinical assessment in Nebraska. Australia diverted its citizens through the Netherlands at the last minute. No two countries are playing by the same rules.
The hantavirus outbreak that killed three aboard the MV Hondius has followed evacuees home, with confirmed cases now in France and the US. A pathogen that normally spreads through rodent droppings found something unexpected on a luxury cruise ship: ideal conditions for human-to-human transmission.
Biden's FDA rejected 26 million flavored vape applications. Trump's FDA just approved mango and blueberry — after the president personally pressed the commissioner.
A suspected hantavirus patient was running out of oxygen on an island with no airstrip, 2,400 km from the nearest land. So eight people jumped from the sky.
Andrea Woodley's septicemia has spread to her heart. Her doctors said she needs housing to survive. Western Australia's priority housing list still has her waiting two more years.
Everyone still aboard the MV Hondius is asymptomatic. Three passengers who already left the ship are dead. Now more than 100 people face repatriation and up to nine weeks of quarantine.
