概要

 Listeners, as of today, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports a massive spike in kratom poisonings across the United States. According to the CDC, kratom exposure reports to poison centers soared 1,200 percent from 258 cases in 2015 to 3,434 last year, totaling over 14,449 incidents through 2025. This herbal supplement from Southeast Asia, often used for pain relief or opioid withdrawal, has exploded in popularity, especially high-potency versions, leading to risks like liver toxicity, seizures, and substance use disorder. The Food and Drug Administration warns it's unsafe as a dietary supplement or food additive, with men aged 20 to 59 making up most cases. Kratom is now banned in states including Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Louisiana, Vermont, Wisconsin, and recently Connecticut, while Minnesota considers stricter rules raising the purchase age to 21 or classifying it as a Schedule II drug.

ProPublica reveals that on March 28, 2025, CDC officials ordered staff not to release an expert assessment on measles risk, stressing the need for vaccinations, amid ongoing concerns about public health data access.

A new study in Clinical Infectious Diseases, analyzed by GSK researchers using 2015-2022 health data, shows younger adults aged 18 to 49 with chronic conditions like diabetes, asthma, depression, or COPD face up to 31 percent higher shingles risk than healthy adults aged 50 to 59. Current vaccines are recommended for those 50 and older or immunocompromised adults 19 and up, but these findings question if age thresholds miss at-risk younger people with comorbidities.

The CDC also continues weekly respiratory illness reporting and monthly COVID-19 vaccination updates for healthcare personnel via the National Healthcare Safety Network, with no changes to "up to date" definitions.

For Syrian TPS holders, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services extended certain Employment Authorization Documents to July 1, 2026, per a court order in Dahlia Doe v. Noem, so employers should note this on Form I-9.

Stay vigilant with these alerts, listeners—consult healthcare providers for personal risks.
