Listeners, here are the key public health alerts and advisories across the United States right now. New York is managing an unusually complex set of simultaneous health activations tied in part to the upcoming 2026 World Cup. According to Medical Daily’s June coverage, New York State currently has an active hantavirus quarantine involving two residents exposed to Andes virus, the only hantavirus known to spread from person to person, following a cruise ship outbreak. Medical Daily also reports an ongoing measles situation with 11 confirmed cases in New York State this year, all in unvaccinated adults linked to international travel, amid a larger national measles outbreak approaching two thousand confirmed cases. Health officials stress that measles, not Ebola, is the most likely cause of a serious outbreak in connection with large events, and they strongly urge listeners to verify they have had two doses of the MMR vaccine, which protects against measles, mumps, and rubella. Medical Daily further notes that New York remains in a preparedness posture for Ebola because of an international outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the participation of the DRC team in the World Cup. There is also enhanced monitoring for a COVID-19 subvariant, as well as seasonal activation of West Nile virus surveillance as mosquito season ramps up. For listeners, that means keeping up to date on vaccinations, using mosquito repellent, removing standing water around homes, and paying attention to local health department alerts. Nationwide, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s COVID modeling program reports that as of early June, COVID-19 infections are declining or likely declining in the vast majority of states, with growth detected in only a small number of states. While that is encouraging, CDC still recommends staying current on COVID vaccinations, especially for older adults and people with underlying conditions, and staying home when sick. In Texas, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service has confirmed New World screwworm in a calf in Zavala County. A June alert from Los Angeles County Veterinary Public Health notes this is a serious but currently localized animal health threat that can affect all warm-blooded animals and, rarely, humans. USDA emphasizes that the U.S. food supply remains safe and that screwworms do not infest meat, fruits, or vegetables, but animal owners in affected regions should promptly report any suspicious wounds in livestock or pets to state animal health officials. For air quality, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection has issued a statewide air quality alert through this evening for elevated pollution levels. Sensitive groups such as people with asthma, chronic lung disease, heart disease, older adults, and young children are advised to limit strenuous outdoor activity and consider staying indoors with windows closed and air conditioning or air purifiers running when possible. Across all these alerts, the main actions for listeners are: stay current on recommended vaccines, especially MMR and COVID; follow local mosquito control guidance; protect vulnerable family members during air quality alerts; and pay attention to state and local health department updates, which can change quickly around large events and during the summer season.
