Alle guten Dinge sind zwei!Resident Evil Outbreak File#2 ist der zombifizierte Beweis das “besser” nicht immer gleichzeitig auch “erfolgreich” bedeutet.Nur ein knappes Jahr nach erscheinen von Outbreak 1 legte Capcom mit einer waschechten Erweiterung nach welche 5 neue Szenarien und allerhand kleine Verbesserungen mit sich brachte.Selbst in PAL-Territorien durfte diesmal Online gehen, jedoch scheiterte der Titel am Zeitgeist des damaligen Publikums und hinterlässt eine Lücke welche bis Heute von keinem Resident Evil Titel gefüllt wurde.Warum jeder Fan der Reihe diese beiden spiele erlebt haben sollte und was File#2 so viel besser macht hört ihr hier.Cover art by OlegDu willst mehr von den Jungs?

In today's newscast I look at the latest on the screwworm detection in Texas, the latest numbers from the DRC Ebola outbreak and measles in the US.

A deadly outbreak begins with a single meal at a sushi restaurant in Bozeman, Montana. Within hours, diners develop severe nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Some collapse. Two people die. At first, it looks like food poisoning, but investigators quickly notice one strange ingredient connecting many of the sick patients: morel mushrooms.In the first episode of A Morel Dilemma, we meet the people caught in the earliest moments of the outbreak and begin following the investigation as it unfolds in real time. What starts as a suspected restaurant-associated illness quickly becomes a much stranger question: how could a prized edible mushroom, eaten for centuries, suddenly be linked to death?This is not a retrospective summary. It is the beginning of a poisoning mystery, told the way investigators experienced it: with urgency, uncertainty, and more questions than answers.Select referencesCDC Report on Bozeman Morel Mushroom OutbreakRat Poison Contaminated synthetic cannabisE cigarette and vaping assosciated lung injuryEnoki-Listeria outbreakAconite outbreak in Canada mentioned in the introductionArsenic Coffee Pot Poisoning in MaineLeongatha Mushroom MurdersA Morel DilemmaSupport the showReview the show where ever your listeningGet Messages from Toxo (Join the Newsletter!)Join as a supporting memberAd free episodesBonus content and early accessDiscounts and give aways on GOTA PICCEM Mushroom card gameThe GOTTA PICCEM Poisonous Mushroom Game!The Poisonus Fungus Amongus Children's Book!Full book reading (6 minutes!)Tox trinkets (Rep the show at home!)Reach the showEmail: Toxtalk1@gmail.comMore Show ResourcesRyan's Medical Games and ResourcesShow Website

In this episode, we host Professor Meru Sheel to examine whether global health systems are prepared for the next major infectious-disease outbreak. Drawing on her work in infectious-disease epidemiology, vaccine research, emergency preparedness and global health security, Professor Sheel explores the difficult questions now facing governments, public-health agencies and international institutions: how quickly outbreaks can be detected, how effectively information is shared, and how public-health systems can respond before local emergencies become wider international crises. Set against the recent Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda, and the international response to the MV Hondius hantavirus outbreak, this conversation looks at the race between disease spread, surveillance, public trust and political coordination.We discuss why outbreaks test far more than medicine alone. Professor Sheel explains how public-health responses depend not only on vaccines, diagnostics and contact tracing, but also on logistics, risk communication, community engagement and trust in institutions. We explore the difference between individual severity and population-level risk, why a virus can be highly fatal without necessarily posing a pandemic-style threat, and why public-health messaging must warn people without creating panic. The episode also examines the role of the International Health Regulations, the World Health Organization, national governments and multidisciplinary response teams in managing complex, cross-border outbreaks involving cruise ships, repatriation, quarantine, clinical care and international contact tracing.Professor Meru Sheel is Professor of Infectious Diseases and Global Health at the University of Sydney. Her work focuses on epidemiology, vaccine research, outbreak preparedness, emergency response and immunisation systems, particularly across Australia and the Asia-Pacific region. She has worked extensively on the relationship between routine vaccination systems and health emergency preparedness, and her research examines how surveillance, community engagement, vaccine delivery, public-health coordination and equity shape the ability of countries to prevent, detect and respond to infectious-disease threats. The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk.

When news of the Andes strain of the hantavirus broke out, the world seemed to hold its breath. But what do we know about the hantavirus? Expert Michelle Harkins, MD, University of New Mexico, discusses what the hantavirus is and how it is transmitted. She and host Ugo Ezema, MD, Tulane University, delve deeper at the ATS International Conference into how this hantavirus outbreak differs from the spread of COVID, what tests are used to detect hantavirus, and what research is happening in prevention and treatment of hantavirus. 

In this episode of the Medical Matters Podcast, Dr. Peter Brier and Nurse Practitioner Kelly McCormick discuss the recent rise in cases of Ebola and Hantavirus -- the differences, symptoms, and treatments are considered.The goal of this podcast is to provide background, historical context, and explain how the viruses are taking hold. Ebola is largely active in Central and West Africa, and cases may be tracked at this website -- as for Hantavirus, cases are seen in South Africa and South America, and may also be tracked.Further, experts note that the US is likely not fully prepared to guard against an outbreak of either disease.

When two Bucks County teenagers leaped to their deaths from a quarry cliff in 1983, they left a quiet suburban community in shock. "That kind of thing doesn't happen here," people thought. Then it happened again. On a special episode, we talk with the author of the original 1984 Philadelphia magazine article Over the Edge. We talk about the details of this forty-year-old story, about mental health issues and how journalists can write about the topic responsibly.

The ongoing outbreak of hantavirus infections that originated with passengers on the Dutch cruise ship MV Hondius in April has generated concerns across the globe. This very rare occurrence has led to a number of deaths, required quarantining of passengers and prompted emergency responses from public health authorities in multiple countries.  On this episode of Raise the Line from Elsevier, we're tapping the expertise of a leading authority on the subject, Dr. Jamie Childs of Yale University, to provide you with a scientific understanding of hantaviruses and what level of threat is posed by this situation. In short, Dr. Childs believes this is not the start of a pandemic. “The Andes variant involved here is one of the most dangerous hantaviruses, but it is totally controllable with contact tracing.” This timely conversation with host Lindsey Smith is informed by Dr. Childs' decades of hantavirus research as well as learnings from his role leading the CDC's environmental investigation during the landmark 1993 hantavirus outbreak in the Four Corners region of the American Southwest. And be sure to stay tuned to hear his concerns about the factors complicating containment of the current Ebola outbreak in East Africa. Note: this conversation was recorded on May 19th, 2026.

What happens when a sharp-eyed cruise ship doctor spots a hantavirus amid a sea of hangovers and flu symptoms? In this high-stakes episode of the Prolonged Field Care Podcast, Dennis sits down with Dr. Ryan Maves — combat-experienced infectious disease expert and military medicine veteran — to break down the shocking recent Andes virus outbreak.Far from the next global pandemic, hantaviruses are a real, rodent-borne threat that has hit soldiers before (Korean War, anyone?) and can strike deployed units in austere environments. Ryan delivers hard-hitting insights on rapid diagnosis, the “off-script” decompensation that screams hantavirus, supportive care when there's no magic antiviral, and — most importantly — prevention strategies that actually work in the field.If you operate in rodent-infested buildings, set up in abandoned structures, or just want to trust your gut when a patient goes south fast, this episode is required listening. Real talk from the A-team who are currently managing these patients stateside.Key TakeawaysClassic presentation: Flu-like prodrome (fever, fatigue, myalgias, GI upset) for a few days followed by sudden shock, respiratory failure, and decompensation.Bedside diagnostic gold: Thrombocytopenia (low platelets) + hemoconcentration (elevated hematocrit) in a previously healthy patient = major red flag.Treatment reality: Purely supportive — fluids, pressors, oxygen, renal support. No silver-bullet antiviral; ribavirin has limited data at best.Prevention beats everything: Humans are dead-end hosts. Avoid aerosolizing rodent urine/feces/droppings (no dry sweeping!). Use bleach, N95 (or equivalent), gloves, and gown.Human-to-human spread: Extremely rare except with Andes virus (this outbreak strain). Still, treat unknowns with respect.Military relevance: Endemic in deployment zones worldwide; occupying previously rat-infested buildings is a classic risk. History tied directly to U.S. troops in Korea.Mindset: When things go “off script,” trust your clinical instincts over machines. The best tool in the field is still an experienced medic's gut.Chapters00:00 – Welcome back to the PFC Podcast00:26 – Introducing Dr. Ryan Maves & the cruise ship outbreak00:55 – Why this isn't the next pandemic… but still matters03:04 – Military relevance: hantaviruses in deployment zones03:51 – How the cruise ship doc nailed the diagnosis05:27 – Clinical syndrome & the “virus-y” prodrome07:04 – Key labs: thrombocytopenia + hemoconcentration explained09:42 – Disease progression and why young healthy people can still crash10:50 – History of hantaviruses (Korean War → Sin Nombre → Andes)12:21 – Who actually dies and why14:50 – Biocontainment units and the military experts on the case17:35 – Treatment in the field: supportive care only19:35 – Shock management: distributive + capillary leak20:55 – Prevention is king: rodent control & PPE tactics24:22 – Human-to-human transmission (Andes virus exception)27:31 – Infection control, differential diagnosis, and real-world precautions30:08 – Final thoughts: clinical acumen, zoonoses, and trusting your instincts32:32 – Closing & where to find more PFC contentGrab your N95 and hit playFor more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠

Ebola. Hantavirus. Here we go again. Tracking outbreaks to see if they are going to spread across the world. Triggering fear: virus, epidemic, pandemic. And a flood of headlines. The locations, the numbers, the details change but the gist of the message is always the same. Keep the disease away from us. But today we meet someone who heard the news of an Ebola outbreak and ran straight at it. Into the hot zone. To the epicentre, to a village in what was then Zaire 30 years ago. Her five weeks living and reporting from that bush hospital resulted in her documentary film Ebola: Inside an Outbreak. The film earned her Emmy for outstanding investigative journalism. Her name is Ric Bienstock and she's here with her firsthand account of the Ebola virus, how people live and die with it, what it means as a global health challenge, and whether or not this virus is something that Canadians need to fear.Host: Jesse BrownCredits: Caleb Thompson (Audio Editor), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Additional music by Audio NetworkFact checking by Julian AbrahamMore information:No Ebola cases in Canada and no new hantavirus cases, chief public health officer says - CBC NewsGood Soup Productions - WebsiteSponsors: Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at https://shopify.caoxio: Head over to canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free!

IRAN - On and off as usual - Cancelled a scheduled bombing? - President Trump speaking with reporters says he will know "soon" if U.S. needs to give Iran another big hit; says Gulf states are helping with negotiations; says Iran keeps agreeing to things and changing their mind; says Iran has 2-3 days to make a deal - This is the parental attempt to manupluate a child - I am going to count to THREE.... 1-2-3-4-5-6 China Trip - Chinese President Xi Jinping warned U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday that the U.S. and China “will have clashes and even conflicts” if the long-standing issue of Taiwan's independence is mishandled. - Speaking just ahead of Trump, Xi noted the global attention on the meeting, and said a major question for the two countries was whether they could avoid the “Thucydides Trap,” according to an official English translation of his remarks broadcast by CCTV. - The Thucydides Trap refers to how tensions historically between a rising and ruling power have often resulted in a war.

More than a decade ago, Ron Klain helped orchestrate the U.S. response to the Ebola epidemic in West Africa, as the White House Ebola response coordinator under President Obama. Now, with a fast-growing outbreak of a different strain of Ebola, in a different part of Africa, the public health infrastructure to address an outbreak has vastly changed, following the Trump administration's dismantling of USAID. In this episode, Klain talks about the role USAID played in responding to the 2014-2016 Ebola epidemic, and assesses whether today's outbreak poses more or less of a risk to people in the United States.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org. This episode was produced by Christopher Harland-Dunaway, Kathryn Fink and Karen Zamora. It was edited by Christopher Intagliata and Gisele Grayson. Our executive producer is Sami Yenigun.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

The recent hantavirus outbreak, which killed three people and sickened close to a dozen more, is largely under control, with many passengers now quarantining back in their home countries. But the response, led by a World Health Organization significantly weakened by funding cuts, exposed the obstacles that come with a decentralized approach to global health. It's a challenge that will play out next in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where an outbreak of Ebola has been labeled an international health emergency.

6 Americans, including a family working for a non-profit in the Democratic Republic of Congo, have been exposed to the deadly Ebola virus. At least three of them faced high risk exposure and one American is currently symptomatic. U.S. officials are now working to medically evacuate the group, but it’s unclear where they will be taken for monitoring and treatment. This, as the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a public health emergency of international concern after the number of suspected cases continues to grow and the death count climbs to nearly 90.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sarah and Susie are disturbed by the Hantavirus outbreak on the cruise, and we reminisce about our introduction to the virus thanks to Susie's (unofficial) work on the Gene Hackman investigation. Sarah learned about a collaboration between Prego pasta sauce (??) and Story Corps that will allow you to record family conversations to preserve oral traditions, but we think these people clearly do not know what most family's conversations are actually like. Sarah is working on the Amelia Earhart cold case, and some people now think she landed and made distress calls for days after the plane went missing. She also talks about the Should I Marry a Murderer documentary about a pathologist whose partner confesses to murder, and she faces adversity and mental health issues trying to do the right thing with the information.00:00 - From Pop Songs to WNBA Sports Knowledge06:06 - Floating Toilets & Rodent Poop on Cruises15:43 - Recording Family Dinners with Prego & Story Corps30:18 - Unraveling Amelia Earhart's Fate & Murder Mysteries40:35 - Dresser Drawers, Patriarchy, and Kentucky Derby History49:53 - Should Al Help Us Talk to Animals?

A deadly hantavirus outbreak linked to a cruise ship is making headlines around the world. But how worried should you really be? Dr. Roger Seheult joins Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to explain what is known about the outbreak, how diet and lifestyle may impact the risk of becoming sick, how Andes hantavirus spreads, why this situation is different from COVID-19, and why health officials are taking it seriously while still assessing the risk to the general public as low. Dr. Seheult is the co-founder of MedCram, an Associate Clinical Professor at UC Riverside School of Medicine, an Assistant Clinical Professor at Loma Linda University, and is quadruple board-certified in internal medicine, pulmonary diseases, critical care medicine, and sleep medicine.
