On Monday, 18 Americans returned to the United States from a cruise ship where passengers had contracted a rare strain of hantavirus. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) transported the passengers to specialized quarantine facilities in Nebraska and Georgia; one American tested positive for the virus. As of Tuesday afternoon, three deaths — a Dutch couple and a German woman — nine confirmed cases and two more suspected cases have been linked to the cruise ship outbreak. Health officials say the risk to the general public remains low.The modern moon race.For more than 50 years, no human has set foot on the lunar surface. But now, the United States, China, Russia, and others are all planning to return — not just to visit, but to stay. In our latest video, Associate Producer Aidan Gorman explores why the world's great powers are suddenly dead set on getting back to the moon, and how the race could shape the future beyond Earth.https://youtu.be/j-6etWMgNv0?si=uSqf6nN9saY_RfzGAd-free podcasts are here!To listen to this podcast ad-free, and to enjoy our subscriber only premium content, go to ReadTangle.com to sign up!You can read today's podcast⁠ ⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠ and today's “Have a nice day” story ⁠here⁠.You can subscribe to Tangle by clicking here or drop something in our tip jar by clicking here.

New infections aboard a cruise ship have thrust the hantavirus into the global spotlight. Hantavirus infections remain rare, with only about 1,000 cases reported in the U.S. in more than 30 years. What the world knows about the illness started in 1993 on the Navajo Nation. After struggling to identify the dangerous respiratory illness, medical researchers gained crucial insights from Navajo elders, noting that traditional oral histories had long associated spikes in deer mouse populations — driven by specific rainfall patterns — with deadly disease. That knowledge directly informed the scientific discovery of what we know now as the Sin Nombre virus. The discovery also offers a lesson in public notification of diseases. Early media reports labelled the pathogen as the “Navajo flu”, which stigmatized the community for years afterward. We'll look at the history of the hantavirus and the current efforts to prevent its spread. GUESTS Dean Seneca (Seneca), CEO of Seneca Scientific Solutions+, adjunct professor at the School of Public Health and Health Professions at the University at Buffalo, and Adjunct Instructor at University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry Dr. Steven Bradfute, associate professor in the Center for Global Health at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine Department of Internal Medicine Dr. Erin Phipps, New Mexico State public health veterinarian Break 1 Music: Healing Song (song) Judy Trejo (artist) Circle Dance Songs of the Paiute and Shoshone (album) Break 2 Music: Fearless I Live (song) Courtney Yellow Fat (artist) The Lost Songs of Sitting Bull (album)

A deadly virus is spreading around the globe. Health officials are scrambling to keep it contained. We've seen this movie before and we did not enjoy it.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports a French woman who contracted hantavirus on the cruise ship is severely ill in a Paris hospital.

AP correspondent Haya Panjwani reports on a new hantavirus case.

On the 1st of April, a cruise ship departed from the port of Ushuaia, in the far South of Argentina, carrying 175 passengers and crewmembers. Within a week, the first symptoms of the hantavirus infection began to show. A 70 year old Dutch man died onboard, becoming the first fatality of this outbreak, and his wife died not long after. With the death of a German woman in early May, the death toll now stands at three. The surviving passengers, who come from 23 different nationalities, have finally disembarked the ship in the Netherlands, and most have gone back to their home countries where they will go now through a period of quarantine To discuss the specifics of the hantavirus outbreak, producer Toby spoke to infectious disease expert and public science communicator Siouxsie Wiles.

Bruce & Gaydos talk to an expert on the Hantavirus. They also discuss the heat wave sweeping the Valley.

The ship at the epicenter of the hantavirus outbreak has been evacuated, and 16 Americans have now been transported to a specialized quarantine unit in Nebraska. Two are at a similar unit in Atlanta. The virus has claimed the lives of three people, including a Dutch couple and a German citizen. William Brangham discussed the virus with Dr. Ashish Jha.

Burnie and Ashley discuss music clarificatons, British goodbyes, finding streaming dates, annoying tech obfuscation, Project Hail Mary streaming dates, Hantavirus, Outbreak, Star Wars sequel indifference, and the biggest event no one is talking about.

The director of the University of Minnesota's Center for Infectious Disease Research said Sunday the hantavirus outbreak on a cruise ship does not pose a serious public threat.The Fargo City Commission will likely approve a new police chief Monday night. Interim Chief Travis Stefonowicz is the sole finalist in the search for Fargo's Chief of Police. Stefonowicz would be replacing Dave Zibolski, who retired last month and drew criticism over the department's use of artificial intelligence to identify and arrest a women for a crime even though she said she'd never been to Fargo. Minnesota is one of several states debating a proposal to allow for "plug-in solar" or "balcony solar." The bill allows people to quickly connect small scale solar systems to their homes or apartments.

New luxury cruise ship outbreak, rising hantavirus fears, and Dr. Fauci's looming statute-of-limitations deadline collide as the PBD crew break down WHO messaging, cruise ship spread risks, and why public trust in global health leaders has collapsed.

Some major developments overnight in the Hantavirus cruise ship outbreak. The CDC has now classified the outbreak as level 3, activating the emergency operations center to monitor and assist with containment. 5 U.S. states are now monitoring passengers who have returned home after being exposed on the ship, but a concerning report is coming out of the south Atlantic. A British national who lives at one of the cruise ship stops has now fallen ill, with suspected Hantavirus, and never boarded the ship. In addition a French citizen on the plane with a passenger who died is also being tested for the virus after experiencing benign symptoms. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Those dam bird watchers!

Two Texas residents were passengers on the cruise ship with a deadly hantavirus outbreak, according to federal health authorities, and both left the ship and returned to the U.S. before the outbreak was identified. In other news, Gov. Greg Abbott said Thursday that the Texas American Muslim University at Dallas, a North Texas school that advertises degree programs with Islamic studies courses, must cease operations; Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is demanding proof that school districts across the state, including three in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, are displaying the Ten Commandments in classrooms, as required by a 2025 state law; and some are calling it the 'Fraud of the century.'

Typhoid Mary: The Shocking True Story of New York's Silent Killer is one of the most eerie, gripping, and unexpectedly timely episodes of Terrifying & True. In this Best of 2025 revisit, we return to the haunting real case of Mary Mallon, the woman history would remember as Typhoid Mary—an apparently healthy cook linked to deadly typhoid fever outbreaks across New York and Long Island.At the center of this unforgettable historical mystery is a terrifying idea: what if the person spreading disease shows no symptoms at all? In the early 1900s, affluent households were suddenly struck by baffling illness. The homes were clean, the water was safe, and no one could explain why people kept getting sick. As investigators followed the trail, they uncovered one of the most chilling public health cases in American history—one involving invisible infection, forced quarantine, fear, stigma, and a woman who insisted she had done nothing wrong.This episode is one of the most engrossing Terrifying & True episodes of 2025 because it works on so many levels at once: as a historical true story, a medical mystery, a New York nightmare, and a disturbing ethical drama about freedom, blame, and public safety. It's creepy not because of gore or violence, but because the threat is silent, intimate, and impossible to see. That makes this Best of 2025 re-air especially strong for discoverability—and especially worth revisiting.Inside this episode:The 1906 Oyster Bay outbreak that launched the mysteryGeorge Soper's investigation into a hidden source of repeated typhoid casesMary Mallon's confrontation, arrest, and forced testingThe quarantine on North Brother Island and the legal controversy that followedHer return to cooking under aliases and the second outbreak that sealed her fateWhy Typhoid Mary still matters today in conversations about disease, stigma, and public healthIf you're drawn to historical true crime, dark history, medical mysteries, epidemic stories, New York history, and bizarre real cases that feel almost unbelievable, this is one of the strongest examples of what Terrifying & True does best. This Best of 2025 episode is a chance to revisit one of the show's most unsettling and memorable stories—one that still feels unnervingly relevant more than a century later.We're telling that story tonight.

In this episode of The Poison Lab Outbreak, Ryan talks with Dr. Alaina Steck about a devastating mass poisoning in Mozambique that began at a funeral and ultimately sickened more than 200 people, with a fatality toll of over 70.Early reports blamed crocodile bile. Others suspected intentional poisoning. But as the investigation unfolded, the clinical picture, timeline, and exposure history did not fit neatly with the early theories.Dr. Steck, then a medical toxicology fellow at Emory, joined a CDC-supported outbreak investigation team sent to Mozambique. She walks through what it was like to investigate the outbreak on the ground, including the overwhelmed rural health center, limited medical records, scarce biological and environmental samples, early toxicologic hypotheses, and the eventual role of comparative food testing in identifying the cause.This episode explores the real-world uncertainty of outbreak investigation: incomplete data, competing theories, community fear, and the importance of epidemiology, toxicology, public health, and analytical chemistry working together.Topics CoveredMass poisoning investigation in rural MozambiqueEarly reports of crocodile bile and suspected intentional poisoningClinical presentations including GI symptoms, seizures, pulmonary edema, liver injury, kidney injury, and multisystem diseaseChallenges of interpreting sparse medical records during a mass casualty eventHow toxicologists approach possible intentional poisoningWhy exposure history and timing matter in outbreak investigationThe importance of control samples in analytical testingLessons for clinicians, poison centers, and public health teamsGuestDr. Alaina SteckMedical toxicologist, Emory UniversityFormer medical toxicology fellow involved in the CDC-supported investigation of the Mozambique outbreakResources (Spoilers)Outbreak paperU.S. CaseInstagram @tox_talk • Twitter @LabPoison • Email toxtalk1@gmail.comDisclaimer: The Poison Lab is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice.

In early April, the luxury cruise liner MV Hondius set sail from Argentina across the Atlantic ocean, but things did not go as planned. Since then, three people have died and three others had to be evacuated for emergency medical treatment-- including the ship's doctor-- as they deal with an outbreak of Hantavirus. Now, passengers are still quarantined on the ship, as the World Health Organization tries to contain the disease. In this episode of the Big Story Podcast, host Caryn Ceolin speaks with Dr. Isaac Bogoch, an infectious diseases expert out of the Toronto General Hospital, about hantavirus: what we know, what we don't know, and if this could be the start of the next pandemic. Then, Caryn speaks with Dr. Muhammad Morshed from the British Columbia Centre for Disease Control about what might've happened on the ship that started the outbreak, and what we know about the world's first documented outbreak of this unnerving disease on a cruise ship.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports Dutch officials say about 40 passengers on the cruise ship hit by the Hantavirus outbreak previously disembarked on the island St Helena after the first passenger died.

P.M. Edition for May 6. A patient in Switzerland has been hospitalized with a strain of hantavirus after returning from a cruise to South America.

Plus, media titan Ted Turner, who created CNN and shaped the cable-TV industry, has died at 87. And as some companies lay off workers because of AI, others are keeping their headcount, but they expect workers to do more.
