  • US Public Health Alert Reveals Critical Updates on Flu Vaccines, Bird Flu, Infant Health, and Controversial ACIP Committee Changes

    US Public Health Alert Reveals Critical Updates on Flu Vaccines, Bird Flu, Infant Health, and Controversial ACIP Committee Changes
    2025/11/24
    Public health alerts for the United States on November 24, 2025 include several important topics that listeners need to be aware of. According to the CDC and ProMED, the United States has recently seen heightened concern for influenza activity and vaccine access, including new FDA approval for a self-administered live attenuated influenza vaccine. Increasing coverage and reducing barriers to vaccination is a public health priority, especially as disparities persist among racial, ethnic, and geographic groups. Listeners should check with local providers for flu vaccine options, particularly for children and vulnerable adults.

    Bird flu continues to be monitored closely. ABC7 New York reports a Washington state resident was the first to die from a rare H5N5 strain of avian influenza. Health officials stress that H5N5 is not considered a greater threat than H5N1, which led to roughly 70 human infections—mostly mild—in the U.S. over the past year, predominantly among workers exposed at dairy and poultry farms. Vigilance around bird flu in both farm and wild bird settings remains important, with most listeners at low risk, but those in affected areas should follow state guidance for animal and personal protection.

    Infant health advisories are urgent this week. ProMED shared alerts about infant botulism cases in California associated with infant formula from prior events. While genuine outbreaks appear rare, families should ensure formula is sourced from reputable suppliers and be watchful for symptoms such as trouble feeding or muscle weakness in infants.

    The CDC sees a notable uptick in measles outbreaks linked to declining vaccination rates and international travel. School nurses and pediatric professionals urge listeners to maintain up-to-date immunization, as failure to do so risks exposure not only to measles but also mumps, rubella, and pertussis—which is resurging due to both waning immunity and lower childhood vaccine coverage, with the National Association of School Nurses and the American Academy of Pediatrics reinforcing these recommendations.

    A major policy development is occurring now. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, known as ACIP, which guides federal vaccine recommendations, underwent sudden restructuring; all sitting members were replaced by individuals noted for anti-vaccine stances, a controversial move engineered by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as reported by Pharmacy Times and The Relentless School Nurse. This has raised concern among public health authorities about future vaccine policy, school entry requirements, and program funding for both children and adults. ACIP's upcoming meeting on December 4-5 will decide national vaccine guidance and listeners are encouraged to participate in the comment period, open through November 24, to advocate for science-driven policy.

    Antimicrobial resistance awareness is emphasized nationally during World Antimicrobial Awareness Week, organized by the World Health Organization. Healthcare professionals urge smart, responsible antibiotic use in both hospital and community settings to slow the rise of resistant bacteria and prevent future health crises. Empowered decision-making about infection control and medication is advised.

    Additional research from independent clinical product reviews highlights ongoing concern about blood sugar and metabolic health, with new supplement options receiving attention. While not an alert, listeners with diabetes or related conditions should consult licensed medical personnel before starting any new health products.

    Listeners concerned about respiratory illnesses, infant health, vaccine safety, and antimicrobial resistance should stay in close contact with local health departments for area-specific advisories and updates.

  • Flu H3N2 Variant and Whooping Cough Surge Prompt Urgent Health Warnings for Families Nationwide in 2025

    Flu H3N2 Variant and Whooping Cough Surge Prompt Urgent Health Warnings for Families Nationwide in 2025
    2025/11/20
    Listeners, as of November 20th, 2025, public health officials in the United States are urging everyone to take this year’s flu season seriously. According to STAT News, the United States is facing another tough flu season, with a new variant of the H3N2 influenza virus, known as subclade K, making people more susceptible to infection. This variant appeared after vaccine manufacturers finalized this season’s flu shot, potentially lowering the effectiveness of the vaccine against this strain. Despite concerns about a vaccine mismatch, experts, including Scott Hensley at the University of Pennsylvania and Kanta Subbarao at Laval University, emphasize that getting a flu shot provides important protection, especially against hospitalization, and also covers other strains. This is particularly important as H3N2 viruses accounted for about half of last winter’s severe flu activity in the country, and over 63% of current lab-confirmed cases belong to the H3N2 family. While the vaccine’s effectiveness may decline as the season goes on, early studies from the UK Health Security Agency suggest children and teens receive up to 70 to 75% protection against severe flu, and adults about 30 to 40%. These numbers could drop over time, so officials are closely tracking the situation.

    Listeners should also be aware of a sharp increase in pertussis, or whooping cough, outbreaks nationwide. KFF Health News and ProMED report that states like Texas, Florida, California, Oregon, and several others are facing their highest number of cases in over a decade, with Texas recording more than 3,500 cases by October and the nationwide figure for early 2025 running 25 times higher than two years ago. The surge is fueled by falling vaccination rates, waning immunity, and delays in public health tracking. Infants are at the highest risk, with complications including pneumonia, hospitalization, and, tragically, death. The CDC is strongly recommending that pregnant women get a Tdap vaccine with every pregnancy to protect babies through transferred antibodies. Obstetricians, pediatricians, and family doctors are urged to review vaccine status with all patients, and families with young children should make sure they’re up to date on all recommended shots for flu, Covid-19, and RSV as the holiday season approaches.

    There have also been recent health alerts tied to infant botulism outbreaks linked to infant formula, as noted by the Minnesota Department of Health, and ongoing measles activity in states like Arizona, New York, Missouri, Utah, and Minnesota. ProMED confirms an alert about infant botulism and measles cases, stressing the need for vaccination and vigilance, especially in communities with outbreaks.

    Food safety is critical going into the holidays, with the FDA expanding recalls related to salmonella found in moringa leaf powder and more cases of foodborne outbreaks. Families should pay attention to food safety notifications and follow local advisories.

    In patient safety news, 3B Healthcare reports that U.S. hospitals have recorded better-than-expected improvements this year, such as lower mortality and infection rates and a surge in cancer screenings.

    To sum up, health agencies stress the importance of flu shots this season, vigilance against whooping cough and measles, checking vaccine status for all family members, ensuring infant formula safety, and practicing careful food handling.

  • Infant Botulism Outbreak Linked to ByHeart Formula Sparks Nationwide Alert with 23 Hospitalized Cases Across 13 States

    Infant Botulism Outbreak Linked to ByHeart Formula Sparks Nationwide Alert with 23 Hospitalized Cases Across 13 States
    2025/11/15
    The United States is currently under a significant public health alert following a multistate outbreak of infant botulism linked to ByHeart Whole Nutrition infant formula. According to an official statement released by the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as of November 14, 2025, there have been 23 confirmed or suspected cases of infant botulism among infants who consumed ByHeart formula. These cases have been reported in states including Arizona, California, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, and Washington, with all affected infants requiring hospitalization. To date, no deaths have been reported.

    Caregivers are urgently advised to stop using all ByHeart Whole Nutrition infant formula products immediately. The recall applies to all unexpired cans and single-serve packs, regardless of lot number. Anyone who has this formula should take a photo of the packaging and keep it in a safe spot, labeled as "Do Not Use," in case local health authorities request it for investigation. If an infant has consumed this formula and starts experiencing symptoms such as constipation, poor feeding, muscle weakness, or a weak cry, immediate medical attention is necessary. The CDC has emphasized that caregivers should continue to monitor any child who consumed the recalled formula and seek healthcare if symptoms develop. More information can be found in notices from both the FDA and CDC.

    Health departments are coordinating with the Infant Botulism Treatment and Prevention Program to test formula samples, and the outbreak is being closely monitored across state and federal agencies. According to health authorities in King County, Washington, while infant botulism can be fatal if untreated, there have been no reported deaths in this outbreak so far, and several cases remain hospitalized.

    The CDC clarifies that other formula brands are not implicated in this outbreak. No other ByHeart products or formulas from different brands are currently subject to recall or advisories.

    In relation to other public health concerns, ProMED reports that influenza activity, particularly H3N2, is rising nationwide, though the CDC has not issued a new risk assessment this week. Health authorities recommend that listeners ensure their vaccinations for influenza are up-to-date, especially among groups at higher risk such as seniors, young children, and those with chronic conditions.

    Avian influenza (H5N1) has also been detected in poultry in several states, including a recent case in a duck in Hawaii. While there have been no recent reported cases of human infection linked to these avian outbreaks, listeners should avoid contact with sick or dead birds and report unusual bird die-offs to local authorities.

    The CDC continues to monitor reports of monkeypox and encourages adherence to preventive measures, though no new large clusters are noted this week. Local health departments also remind the public to stay alert for additional seasonal health risks, such as extreme cold alerts in regions like Baltimore, where Code Blue protocols are in place to protect vulnerable populations from winter weather hazards.

    For the most current and detailed public health alerts, listeners are encouraged to consult official CDC and FDA resources, as well as state and local health department announcements.
