  • CDC Updates Vaccine Guidelines and Health Alerts Amid Measles Outbreaks, COVID Changes, and Emerging Public Health Challenges in Fall 2025

    CDC Updates Vaccine Guidelines and Health Alerts Amid Measles Outbreaks, COVID Changes, and Emerging Public Health Challenges in Fall 2025
    2025/10/16
    Listeners, for October 16, 2025, there are several important public health alerts and advisories for the United States.

    Measles outbreaks continue to affect multiple states, with confirmed cases reported recently in South Carolina and Minnesota. According to the Immunize LA Coalition, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention remind all listeners who are traveling internationally or living in areas with active outbreaks to make sure everyone, including babies as young as 6 months, is up to date on measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccination. The CDC now recommends that children under four years receive two separate vaccines: one for measles, mumps, and rubella, and a separate one for chickenpox, rather than the previous combination MMRV vaccine. For those in outbreak areas or with travel plans, local and state departments may issue additional vaccine guidance, so listeners should check directly with local health resources.

    On COVID-19, the CDC has shifted away from broad recommendations to an individual-based approach. Now, people 65 and older, as well as individuals between 6 months and 64 years with underlying health conditions, are urged to consult their healthcare provider to decide if they should receive a COVID-19 vaccine this fall. This change may lead to confusion at some clinics, so listeners are encouraged to speak directly with providers for the safest guidance. Separate from this, the CDC has expanded vaccine access and coverage for pregnant women, reversing an earlier stance that had paused those recommendations. Pregnant individuals seeking vaccination can now receive it at local pharmacies, and most insurers are required to cover the cost without out-of-pocket charges.

    There is continued concern about rising cases of long COVID. The World Health Network reports on the unpredictability of long COVID symptoms, so listeners experiencing ongoing health issues after a COVID infection should consult their provider for management and support resources.

    A new development in public health staffing may affect outbreak response. KFF Health News and CBS News have reported significant layoffs within the CDC and other federal health agencies during the ongoing government funding issues. While some layoffs have been reversed, public health experts caution that agency response times and outbreak investigations may be delayed this fall.

    A key environmental health alert involves coal miners and silica dust exposure. KFF Health News and E&E News describe rallies urging the federal government to enforce stricter protections for miners, especially concerning black lung disease. Those concerned should monitor updates from the Department of Labor and advocacy groups.

    In California, new food safety laws signed by Governor Newsom require major restaurant chains to disclose all major food allergens on their menus starting in 2026. This does not directly affect most restaurants today, but is an important upcoming change for those with allergies.

    Other pathogen alerts tracked internationally, such as chikungunya, remain isolated. However, ProMED confirms a local case in New York, the first ever for that state, but no outbreaks have been declared. Diseases detected in animals, like avian influenza in Michigan's poultry and chronic wasting disease in Wisconsin's deer herds, are not currently believed to impact the wider public but may affect animal industries.

    Listeners with specific health concerns or belonging to higher-risk groups—such as young children, seniors, those with chronic illnesses, or pregnant women—should stay alert for local advisories from their city or state health departments.

  • US Public Health Alert Warns of Avian Flu Outbreak, West Nile Virus, Pertussis Surge, and COVID Vaccine Updates This Autumn

    US Public Health Alert Warns of Avian Flu Outbreak, West Nile Virus, Pertussis Surge, and COVID Vaccine Updates This Autumn
    2025/10/14
    For listeners in the United States, several public health alerts and advisories are active today. According to the latest reports from ProMED, there is a confirmed outbreak of avian influenza detected in poultry in Wisconsin. While the avian influenza strain currently affects poultry, listeners are encouraged to avoid contact with sick or dead birds and to follow any local agriculture department guidance, as animal outbreaks occasionally raise concerns for potential human health implications in close-contact settings.

    West Nile virus continues to be a concern with a new reported equine case in Tennessee. While horses are not a direct transmission source to humans, this signals conditions favorable for mosquito-borne illnesses. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends using EPA-approved insect repellents and removing standing water around the home to reduce mosquito risk, especially as the season for such illnesses continues in parts of the country.

    Pertussis, also known as whooping cough, has shown increased numbers in Florida, with ProMED noting more cases and reduced vaccination rates in some regions. The CDC has highlighted that pertussis is highly contagious, especially dangerous for infants and vulnerable populations. Listeners are advised to check immunization status for themselves and especially for children, ensuring pertussis vaccination is up to date.

    According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, updates to the COVID-19 vaccine schedule have been approved, focusing eligibility on higher-risk groups, such as adults older than 65, those with certain chronic conditions, and people living in congregate care settings. The CDC has also updated chickenpox vaccine guidelines per new Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommendations. Given the ongoing government shutdown, federal health agencies have not published new regulations or guidance this week, but vaccine recommendations remain unchanged from last week as noted by health policy updates from Alston & Bird. Listeners are encouraged to seek vaccination from local providers, and to regularly consult state and county health departments for any local COVID-19 or flu advisories.

    ProMED also recently reported on the continuing spread of the Asian longhorned tick in Kansas, an invasive species known to spread disease among animals and, rarely, to humans. If spending time outdoors, especially in grassy or wooded areas, use tick prevention strategies, wear long sleeves, and perform tick checks after possible exposure.

    As officials emphasize, antimicrobial resistance remains a serious global and national challenge. According to the World Economic Forum, there is an urgent need for responsible antibiotic use both in human medicine and agriculture to avoid worsening the problem of treatment-resistant infections.

    Mental health concerns are also prominent, with Stat News reporting ongoing stress among healthcare workers and patients related to prolonged political and economic uncertainties.

    Listeners should also be aware of seasonal flu risks, as influenza viruses are beginning to circulate with more frequency this autumn. Health experts strongly encourage those who are eligible to receive annual flu vaccinations as soon as possible to reduce personal risk and prevent health system strain.

  • US Public Health Alert Breaking News Multiple Emergencies Affecting States From Weather Outbreaks to Disease Risks Nationwide

    US Public Health Alert Breaking News Multiple Emergencies Affecting States From Weather Outbreaks to Disease Risks Nationwide
    2025/10/11
    Listeners in the United States should be aware that as of October 11, 2025, there are several important public health alerts and advisories affecting the nation.

    In New Jersey, Acting Governor Tahesha Way has declared a statewide State of Emergency ahead of a dangerous nor’easter storm expected to bring major coastal flooding, high winds up to 60 miles per hour, and potentially hazardous conditions. All residents of New Jersey are advised to follow emergency protocols, avoid unnecessary travel, monitor local weather updates, and prepare for possible evacuation if living near the coast according to the official statement from the Governor’s office.

    Measles outbreaks are currently causing significant concern across America, especially among unvaccinated children. Firstpost reports that over 100 unvaccinated children have been quarantined due to multiple outbreaks. Health officials urge parents to ensure vaccinations are up-to-date, as measles can spread rapidly in communities with low immunization rates.

    In Chicago, health authorities have issued an alert due to increased cases of mpox, previously known as monkeypox, with a notable uptick reported by surveillance updates on ProMED. Residents in Illinois, particularly in the Chicago area, are encouraged to seek medical advice if they develop new rashes or flu-like symptoms and to follow public health guidelines to limit further spread.

    Additionally, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has updated its recommendations regarding COVID-19 booster vaccines. Under the current guidance announced in September, universal vaccination is no longer recommended for healthy individuals under age 65. Instead, the CDC advises people to consult with healthcare providers about the risks and benefits to make an informed decision. Seniors 65 and older and those with underlying health conditions remain eligible for booster shots, and most Americans can still receive the COVID-19 vaccine at no cost, but may encounter additional discussions about eligibility depending on their situation, as reported by Money.com. Updated flu vaccines are also encouraged this season, with local and state health departments reminding the public about the benefits of vaccination, especially for those at higher risk of severe illness.

    There have also been several deaths in Los Angeles linked to a synthetic kratom compound, specifically 7-Hydroxymitragynine or 7-OH. The Los Angeles County Health Department is urging caution with unregulated herbal products and advises anyone experiencing unusual symptoms after using such substances to seek medical attention promptly.

    Nationally, a significant government shutdown is impacting federal health agencies, including layoffs affecting the Department of Health and Human Services. This situation may lead to delays in disease monitoring, health research, and public resource updates, according to Arab News and Travel and Tour World.

    Listeners should remain vigilant, particularly regarding severe weather alerts, vaccine updates, emerging infectious diseases, and the use of unregulated substances. It’s important to follow official sources such as state and local health departments, the CDC, and weather services for the most timely and accurate information.
