HHS denies exploring a ban on SSRI antidepressants. Two sources told Reuters the discussions happened anyway. Roughly one in six American adults takes these medications.
By the time hantavirus was identified aboard the MV Hondius, passengers had already scattered to a dozen countries — and three people were dead.
The Justice Department didn't bother defending the FDA rule that made telehealth abortion possible. The Supreme Court restored it anyway — but only until May 11.
At Idaho's largest hospital system, nearly one in ten families now decline the vitamin K shot for their newborns. Two infants are dead. The condition is almost entirely preventable.
Three passengers are dead and roughly 150 people remain trapped aboard the MV Hondius — sick with a rodent-borne virus that has no business on an ocean liner.
The US health secretary says quitting antidepressants is worse than quitting heroin — he went through heroin withdrawal more than 100 times. Addiction researchers say the two drugs 'are in different universes.' Roughly 11% of American adults are now paying attention.
The FDA's own research found COVID-19 vaccines safe across more than 11 million patient records. Then leadership blocked the studies from publication — including one already accepted by a peer-reviewed journal.
The WHO suspects hantavirus may have spread between passengers through human-to-human contact — something almost never documented. Three people are dead, and no country has agreed to let the ship dock.
Three passengers are dead and at least seven have fallen ill with hantavirus aboard a cruise ship near Cape Verde. The key question: is this the Andes variant — one of the only hantaviruses known to spread between humans?
A cancer drug that once required a two-hour hospital drip now takes sixty seconds. The NHS is rolling it out to 14,000 patients a year — and for one 89-year-old, it means more time in the garden.
A confirmed hantavirus case and five suspected infections aboard the MV Hondius have killed three passengers. The virus almost never spreads between humans — which makes the transmission chain aboard a crowded vessel deeply unsettling.
Until last week, infants weighing under five kilograms had no malaria drug built for them. A new WHO-approved treatment changes that — but getting it to 30 million babies a year is the next challenge.
Purdue Pharma will cease to exist by Friday. The Sackler family will pay up to $7 billion over 15 years. Individual victims can expect $8,000 to $16,000 — if they can find decades-old prescription records.
When information was scarcest, the AI nailed the diagnosis 67% of the time. Two expert physicians managed 50% to 55%. The study used real ER patients, not curated test cases.
Congress appropriated $607.5 million for international family planning this year. The State Department says it's 'still evaluating' — while nearly 1,400 clinics have closed and $9.7 million in contraceptives sit in a Belgian warehouse.
Rising obesity tracks with rising cancer rates in adults under 50 — but explains only a fraction of the increase. The search for what's driving the rest is just beginning.
From this year forward, Britain will bury more people than it welcomes. The ONS says the shift is permanent — and the consequences land hardest on the young.
62% of patients who received a single CRISPR infusion had zero swelling attacks for six months — no ongoing treatment required. It's the first time gene editing inside a living body has cleared a Phase 3 trial.
By 2060, nearly 50 million Chinese citizens could have dementia, with annual costs surpassing $5 trillion. Beijing's new national campaign aims to develop four original drugs — but the last homegrown Alzheimer's treatment was just pulled from the market.
