The email said their duties were "identified as either unnecessary or virtually identical to duties being performed elsewhere in the agency." But the #genetic #tracing that the #CDC's lab performs is not conducted by any lab in the #UnitedStates or the #world….

While it remains shuttered, ongoing investigations of current #hepatitis #outbreaks have been stalled, not just in #Florida, but also in #Oregon, #Pennsylvania, #Massachusetts, #NewMexico, #Wisconsin, #WestVirginia & #Georgia….

As measles outbreaks in Canada grow and spread between provinces, pediatricians are again recommending vaccinations while also bracing for serious complications, including a rare, long-term neurological disorder that can emerge six to 10 years after an initial measles infection.

CBCAs measles outbreaks grow, doctors are on the lookout for rare but serious complications | CBC NewsAs measles outbreaks in Canada grow and spread between provinces, pediatricians are again recommending vaccinations while also bracing for serious complications, including a rare, long-term neurological disorder that can emerge six to 10 years after an initial measles infection.

The US now has >600 #measles cases in 22 states, acc/to the #CDC [& who knows if that’s being accurately reported]. That includes 481 cases in #Texas alone. The country has now reported >2X the number of measles cases this year than were reported in all of 2024.

The CDC says there have been 6 measles #outbreaks so far this year.

At the #CDC, 2 prestigious training programs were gutted: one that embeds recent #PublicHealth grads in local #health depts & another to cultivate the next generation of PhD lab scientists. But the agency’s #Epidemic #Intelligence Service—the “disease detectives” who track #outbreaks around the world—has apparently been spared, perhaps because of an uproar among alumni after a majority of its members were told on Fri that they would be let go.

#Mpox #outbreaks declared in #Kenya and Central African Republic {#CAR}. The race is on to contain the spread independent.co.uk/news/central

Kenya and the Central African Republic have declared new outbreaks of mpox as Africa's health officials are racing to contain the spread of the disease in a region lacking vaccines

A new #ResearchNetwork set up to help counter #Africa’s surge in #mpox cases is urgently seeking #funding, as #outbreaks emerge in previously unaffected parts of the continent.

Mpox is an #InfectiousDisease caused by the #monkeypox #virus. It can cause a painful rash, enlarged lymph nodes and fever. Although most people make a full recovery, it can develop into a serious, or fatal illness.

A #consortium, called #MpoxReC, was announced in #TheLancet in May this year. Jean Nachega, coordinating committee chair, says the immediate priority is to secure funding for research activities across #MpoxEndemic countries.

The focus is in response to burgeoning outbreaks, not only in #endemic countries, but also in previously unaffected parts of Africa, especially through sexual contact. Nachega and co-authors of The Lancet announcement say the continent’s leading mpox #scientists continue to struggle to secure critical #research funding to help contain the persistent threat.

“Mpox is a serious #health concern, not only for #African countries but for the world. #COVID19 showed clearly that #viruses have no respect for borders, and if we don’t accelerate efforts to eliminate mpox in Africa, we risk its spread to other continents,” Nachega tells #NatureAfrica.
