 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.
