  • CDC Considers Major Hepatitis B Vaccine Change Amid Rising Preventable Disease Rates and Vaccination Challenges

    CDC Considers Major Hepatitis B Vaccine Change Amid Rising Preventable Disease Rates and Vaccination Challenges
    2025/12/02
    Good morning, listeners. Here's what you need to know about public health alerts across the United States as of today, December 2nd, 2025.

    The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices is meeting this week to discuss significant changes to vaccination recommendations. Most notably, the committee is reconsidering the hepatitis B birth dose vaccine, a recommendation that has been in place for decades. According to public health advocates, any changes to this long-standing guidance could have ripple effects across nearly 600 state statutes and regulations that govern school immunization requirements and insurance mandates. This discussion comes as vaccination rates continue to decline nationally, and cases of vaccine-preventable diseases like measles and pertussis are increasing.

    Speaking of measles, the Pan American Health Organization reports that after achieving measles elimination in the Americas and a 98 percent drop in cases in 2024, the region is now facing renewed transmission in 2025. However, deaths have declined 88 percent since 2000, showing the ongoing impact of vaccination efforts.

    In Arizona, health officials are investigating E. coli cases potentially linked to the Arizona State Fair petting zoo. Listeners in that area should exercise caution, particularly when visiting animal contact areas.

    New York City residents should be aware of a botulism risk associated with uneviscerated fish products. The FDA has issued guidance on this matter, so listeners should check their seafood purchases carefully.

    Additionally, weather-related disruptions are occurring today in some areas. Transportation services have been suspended in certain regions due to inclement weather, though essential medical transportation like dialysis services continue operating.

    On a positive note, in recognition of World AIDS Day, DC Health and local officials are highlighting free resources and testing services for residents seeking HIV-related care and support.

  • US Faces Multiple Public Health Challenges: Foodborne Illnesses, Pertussis, Measles, and Emerging Flu Variant Spark Nationwide Concern

    US Faces Multiple Public Health Challenges: Foodborne Illnesses, Pertussis, Measles, and Emerging Flu Variant Spark Nationwide Concern
    2025/11/29
    Several significant public health alerts are affecting the United States today. ProMED, the global disease surveillance network, reports multiple concerning developments across the country that listeners should be aware of.

    In the Midwest, a foodborne illness outbreak linked to unpasteurized milk has been confirmed in West Virginia. This outbreak underscores the ongoing risks associated with consuming unpasteurized dairy products, particularly as we head into the holiday season when food safety becomes increasingly important.

    The Pacific Northwest is dealing with multiple E. coli outbreaks. Washington and California are investigating O157 cases connected to walnut consumption, while Washington is simultaneously tracking an O121 strain potentially linked to chicken. Additionally, an E. coli outbreak in Idaho has been traced to unpasteurized milk, continuing the pattern of dairy-related illness across multiple states.

    Pertussis cases continue rising across the country. ProMED reports increased cases in Arkansas and Kentucky, with Kentucky particularly concerning as it has already recorded a third infant death from the disease. This makes pertussis vaccination crucial, especially for those in contact with infants.

    Infant botulism remains a serious concern. Multiple cases have been identified related to powdered infant formula, with the FDA monitoring the situation closely. Parents should be extremely cautious about formula sourcing and storage.

    Measles outbreaks persist in multiple locations including South Carolina, New York, Utah, and Arizona, with ProMED reporting 141 confirmed cases in the United States. This reflects declining vaccination rates in certain communities and poses a risk to unvaccinated populations, particularly children.

    Shigellosis has been identified in Maine, creating a cluster outbreak that health officials are actively monitoring.

    Regarding influenza, the CDC and health experts are tracking a new H3N2 subclade K variant that differs genetically from this year's flu vaccine. This variant currently accounts for fifty-six percent of all H3N2 flu cases according to recent CDC data. Infectious disease experts warn this could lead to a rougher flu season, particularly as vaccination rates have declined with over two million fewer flu shots administered at U.S. pharmacies through October compared to the previous year. The variant does not appear to cause more severe disease, but increased infection rates mean more hospitalizations overall.

    Norovirus activity has also escalated, with positive tests doubling over the past three months according to CDC data. There is no vaccine for norovirus, so thorough hand hygiene remains the primary prevention method.

  • Urgent Infant Formula Recall: ByHeart Botulism Outbreak Affects 37 Infants Across 17 States Prompts Nationwide Health Warning

    Urgent Infant Formula Recall: ByHeart Botulism Outbreak Affects 37 Infants Across 17 States Prompts Nationwide Health Warning
    2025/11/27
    Several significant public health alerts are affecting the United States today. The most urgent involves an ongoing multistate outbreak of infant botulism linked to ByHeart Whole Nutrition infant formula. According to the FDA and CDC, as of November 26, 2025, a total of 37 infants across 17 states have been confirmed or suspected to have infant botulism after exposure to this product. The affected states include Arizona, California, Idaho, Illinois, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. All 37 infants have been hospitalized, though no deaths have been reported. The contamination involves Clostridium botulinum, and the California Department of Public Health has confirmed the presence of this bacterium in cultures from opened cans of the formula. The FDA recommends that consumers worldwide should not use any ByHeart brand infant formula, as all products are included in the recall. Parents should keep containers in a safe place labeled do not use, and if a child develops symptoms, caregivers should contact their state health department. The California Department of Public Health has established a hotline at 1-833-398-2022 for parents and caregivers with concerns, available Monday through Sunday from 7 AM to 8 PM Pacific Standard Time.

    Beyond the infant formula crisis, listeners should be aware of additional health threats circulating across the nation. Measles cases have been reported in South Carolina, New York, Utah, and Arizona, with 141 confirmed cases documented. E. coli EHEC infections continue to spread in multiple states, with cases in Washington, Idaho, and other regions linked to various food sources including chicken and unpasteurized milk. Pertussis outbreaks are increasing in Arkansas and Kentucky, with Kentucky reporting the third infant death from the disease. Influenza activity is rising, with H3N2 strains dominating in several regions. There are also reports of botulism cases related to self-injection of cosmetic products in New York, Texas, and Wisconsin that require immediate medical attention.

    Additionally, campylobacteriosis has been linked to chicken liver pate consumed at a workplace cafeteria in Washington, and shigellosis clusters have been identified in Maine. Vibriosis cases are increasing in South Carolina. The mpox virus continues to circulate, with new cases confirmed in Kenya, and health authorities remain vigilant for potential spread. These outbreaks underscore the importance of food safety practices, vaccination maintenance, and prompt medical attention for symptoms including weakness, difficulty swallowing or speaking, and facial paralysis that may indicate botulism.
