New York City health officials have confirmed the city's first case of brain-swelling West Nile virus this year. It's the city's first case of West Nile virus so far in 2026, with 222 cases reported nationwide, primarily in Arizona, Texas and California. According to the health department, mosquitoes carrying West Nile virus are present in NYC every year from June through October, with peak season between August and September. The city said it has intensified mosquito surveillance and expanded control efforts after detecting the virus in mosquito samples in all five boroughs since June, twice as many samples as last summer. While most patients have few or mild symptoms, about one in 150 suffer potentially life-threatening brain swelling, along with infections and paralysis.
On World Mosquito Day, we're taking a closer look at Europe's changing mosquito landscape and what it means for public health.Mosquitoes capable of transmitting diseases such as dengue and chikungunya are now established in more parts of Europe, while West Nile virus is already circulating across the continent. As mosquito distributions and environmental conditions change, more areas may become suitable for transmission.In this episode of ECDC: On Air, Céline Gossner, Deputy Head of Unit One Health related Diseases / Head of Section Food, Water, Vector-borne and Zoonotic Diseases at ECDC, explains what we need to know about dengue, chikungunya and West Nile virus in Europe.How can an infection acquired while travelling lead to local transmission back home? Which mosquitoes transmit which diseases? Who is more at risk of severe illness, and what can we do to protect ourselves and the people around us?We also look at how mosquito breeding can be reduced around our homes and communities, how climate and environmental conditions influence transmission, and why surveillance, early detection and preparedness are becoming increasingly important.The message is not one of alarm, but of preparedness. Understanding the risks and acting early can help reduce the impact of mosquito-borne diseases in Europe.Learn more:

On this episode of The Ty Brady Way, Ty sits down with Jim Effner to talk about ambition, leadership, adversity, and what it takes to build a successful life and business. Jim shares how growing up as the youngest of five in a middle-class family shaped his work ethic. At just 12 years old, he began working as a caddy at an exclusive private club, where he was exposed to successful people, affluent lifestyles, and possibilities he had never seen before. That early experience gave Jim a strong desire to create a bigger life for himself. After earning a degree in corporate finance, he began looking for a career where the size of his paycheck would be in his own control. A practice interview led him into the insurance industry, where he joined Northwestern Mutual and quickly found success. Jim became rookie of the year, reached Million Dollar Round Table consistently, made Top of the Table in his late 20s, and was earning seven figures by his early 30s. Jim explains that his career was never mapped out from the beginning. He first believed he would remain an individual representative for the rest of his life. As he gained experience, his interests shifted toward leadership. He eventually became a managing partner at 33 years old and led a firm with 150 agents and advisors. After more than 14 years in that role, he sold the firm and started his current company. Ty and Jim also discuss the greatest challenge Jim faced during his career. At 33, Jim was bitten by a mosquito carrying West Nile virus. It developed into viral meningitis and caused him to completely lose his hearing. He remained deaf for six months while waiting to see whether treatment would restore it. When his hearing did not return, he received a cochlear implant. Jim describes the implant as a gift from God. His hearing is not the same as it was before, but it has allowed him to continue living, working, and leading. He explains that the experience changed his perspective and made him a better husband, father, and businessman. Rather than allowing the loss to define him, he decided to use it as fuel. The conversation moves into leadership and what effective leaders look like today. Jim says there is no single personality type that makes someone a great leader. Leaders can come from different backgrounds and have very different personalities. What they often share is a commitment to helping others succeed. Jim believes that when leaders help the people around them get what they want, they are more likely to achieve their own goals as well. Jim describes leadership as a responsibility, not a position of authority. Strong leaders create environments where people can grow, perform, and win together. They do not lead through entitlement or dictatorship. They serve, set the example, and make decisions based on values, even when those decisions may not benefit them financially in the short term. Jim also shares two pieces of advice that shaped his career. The first was to never follow his pocketbook. His mentor told him to follow his passion and trust that the money would follow. That advice helped Jim make difficult career decisions, including walking away from a successful sales career to pursue leadership. The second lesson focused on building trust with clients. Jim was taught that every first meeting should leave the client believing three things: that you understand them, that you genuinely care about them, and that you are knowledgeable in your craft. When people feel understood, cared for, and confident in your ability, the rest of the relationship becomes much easier. You'll also hear Jim explain how trust grows through curiosity, listening, presence, and consistency. Leaders must model the behaviors they expect from others, especially during difficult situations. People are always watching how a leader responds under pressure. Jim closes with a reminder that life is short and everyone only gets one chance to live it. He encourages listeners to stop focusing on the reasons they cannot pursue their dreams and start focusing on why those dreams matter. His message is to think bigger, stay disciplined, let go of negative influences, and refuse to make failure the final outcome. If you want to learn how to turn adversity into fuel, lead with purpose, and build a life that reflects your biggest goals, this episode is for you. As always, we would like to hear from you!
What if you've spent years being told that everything is “normal,” while your body is telling you something completely different? In this episode of the Health Detective Podcast, Michele Scarlet sits down with Chandra Marin, a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, to explore her decades-long journey with chronic symptoms, digestive dysfunction, brain fog, anxiety, fatigue, and unexplained health challenges. Chandra's story began in her teens with severe constipation, episodes of passing out, chronic headaches, painful periods, and a feeling that her metabolism simply wasn't working like everyone else's. After contracting West Nile virus, her energy declined even further, making exercise, hiking, dancing, and everyday activities increasingly difficult. For years, conventional testing continued to come back “normal,” while her symptoms persisted. Everything changed when Chandra discovered Functional Diagnostic Nutrition and Functional Lab Testing. Instead of relying on generic advice, she finally received personalized information about what was happening inside her body. Testing revealed significant gut dysfunction, food sensitivities, bacterial imbalance, digestive issues, and other areas requiring support. One of the biggest turning points came from identifying foods her body was reacting to. Within about three weeks of following a personalized food-sensitivity-based protocol, her severe bloating and gas dramatically improved, her stomach felt normal, her energy began returning, and she lost 10–12 pounds. Chandra also shares how personalized healing protocols, metabolic typing, hormone support, and a deeper understanding of her nervous system helped improve her energy, concentration, mood, anxiety, and brain fog. Most importantly, this conversation explores the emotional side of chronic health challenges, including losing hope, gaslighting yourself, feeling ashamed, and eventually learning to trust your body again. Discover why Chandra believes your body is not the enemy, it is the authority, and why becoming your own “health detective” can be the beginning of a completely different relationship with your health.

If you've ever wondered how a daily comedy show can go from camel rides to West Nile mosquitoes, somehow end up roasting Panera's move to Boston, and still find time to debate whether minivans are secretly awesome... congratulations, you've found today's episode.The crew kicks things off with one of the weirdest conversations you'll hear all week after camel videos completely derail the morning. From there it's straight into Missouri mosquito season, West Nile warnings, heat indexes trying to melt highways, and why everyone suddenly feels like checking every birdbath in the neighborhood.Then comes the biggest local story of the day: Panera officially announcing plans to move its headquarters from the St. Louis area to Boston. The gang reacts the only way they know how—with sarcastic conspiracy theories, fake boardroom jargon, Boston jokes, memories of St. Louis Bread Co., questionable bathroom reviews, and plenty of mourning for another hometown company heading east. Somehow the conversation also includes Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, bread bowls, hospital food, and the mysterious career path of CEO Paul Carbone.The chaos doesn't stop there.There's a wild retail theft story where social media becomes the criminals' biggest enemy, stories about detention, paddlings, school punishments that absolutely wouldn't fly today, and enough embarrassing childhood memories to keep therapists employed for years.Later, the crew unexpectedly becomes the biggest supporters of minivans you've ever heard. Sliding doors, cup holders, family road trips, captain's chairs, Toyota Siennas... suddenly everyone's wondering if they judged minivans way too harshly growing up.Of course, no episode would be complete without random tangents about neighborhood cats, weird internet nostalgia, ridiculous listener texts, and the kind of conversations that somehow only happen on The Rizzuto Show.Whether you're here for local St. Louis news, celebrity-style banter, ridiculous arguments, or just looking for a daily comedy show that feels like hanging out with your funniest friends before work, Episode #301 delivers another perfectly unhinged morning.Listen, laugh, argue about Panera bathrooms, and decide for yourself whether camel noises belong on the radio.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We start ours by arguing about what the word "standby" actually means before immediately spiraling into ancient social media trauma. Seems healthy.This daily comedy show welcomes comedian Bobby Jaycox back into the studio, and from there the rails completely disappear. One minute we're talking about his stand-up shows, the next we're debating whether MySpace deserves another shot at world domination. Would you bring back your Top 8? Would Tom still be your first friend? More importantly... what embarrassing song was automatically blasting from your profile the second someone visited?Naturally, that conversation leads us into the greatest collection of forgotten internet memories imaginable. MySpace profile songs, HTML backgrounds, awkward teenage decisions, and the horrifying realization that some of those old photos may still exist somewhere in the digital universe waiting to ruin careers.As if nostalgia wasn't enough, Lauren somehow gets roped into doing a Chewbacca impression... and then convinces everyone else to try one too. The results are exactly as dignified as you'd expect from grown adults with microphones.Elsewhere in today's chaos...• Bobby shares stories about Nikki Glaser helping promote his comedy shows.• The crew debates whether listening to music should be a solo experience.• Rafe revisits one of the most questionable MySpace profile songs ever selected by a human being.• Moon explains why MySpace worked in the first place—and why bringing it back might be impossible.• Clone conspiracies somehow become a serious topic for several minutes.• Lauren runs through the latest celebrity news, music headlines, TV updates and entertainment gossip during Crap on Celebrities.• Ted Lasso returns.• American Horror Story gets its Avengers-style crossover season.• Eminem auctions off sneakers.• Demi Lovato shuts down clone theories... which naturally only fuels more clone theories around the room.• The gang ranks classic summer songs while simultaneously roasting Kenny Chesney, LFO, Brian Wilson, and basically everyone else.It's another episode where one conversation accidentally creates six more conversations, nobody stays on topic for long, and somehow that's exactly how we like it.Then Mike McKenna from Macadoodles walks into the studio carrying what might be the greatest gift Rafe has ever received: a full-size cardboard cutout of Willie Nelson. Naturally, that leads to conversations about THC drinks, sleep gummies, hemp regulations, getting way too high in Vegas, and why older adults are becoming the biggest fans of Willie Nelson's cannabis beverages.The crew also answers listener emails that somehow become full-blown debates. Is it weird to say hi to the spouses of radio personalities when you see them in public? Does gray hair actually make people more attractive? Should you ever dye it? Why do brothers care if their sister goes gray? The opinions are... surprisingly passionate.Then comes one of the biggest debates of the episode.A listener witnesses someone bringing a dog into a pizza restaurant... then placing the dog ON THE TABLE. The crew is completely split over what's acceptable, what's disgusting, where the line should be, and somehow babies, dirty diapers, dog hair, patios, and pizza all become part of the same conversation.Meanwhile Bobby prepares for his upcoming appearance at the Gathering of the Juggalos, everyone wonders what kind of chaos that comedy show will become, and Rafe volunteers to road trip despite claiming he's only doing it to pay off student loans.It's another completely unfiltered episode filled with ridiculous conversations, listener emails, celebrity randomness, weird news, and exactly the kind of nonsense you've come to expect from The Rizzuto Show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Mosquitoes in Desoto Test Positive for West Nile VirusExtreme heat buckles road on Highway K in O'FallonPanera to move headquarters from St. Louis to BostonMillennials are trying to make minivans cool again‘Millennials assemble': Myspace could be making a comebackSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Contributor: Meghan Hurley, MD Educational Pearls: What animal is the most lethal to humans? Depending on how we define lethal, and animal, this answer is actually not straight forward. Globally and in the U.S. the most lethal animal is humans, accounting for ~436,000 to ~20,000 deaths (homicides) per year on average respectively. In the United States the most lethal animal is of the Hymenoptera order (bees, wasps, and hornets). It accounts for approximately ~60 deaths per year from anaphylaxis. Globally the number is harder to track, but is estimated between 250–3,800 deaths globally annually. Globally the most lethal animal is venomous snakes, accounting for between 60,000-150,000 per year (whereas in the United States this number is closer to ~5). Mosquitos, as a vector however for the pathogens they transmit, out rank all as the most lethal globally (excluding humans). What are the key take-aways for each insect discussed in this episode? Mosquitos: In the United States, of lesser concern. Can potentially transmit West Nile Virus in the United States. Otherwise, treatment for general mosquito bites is topical antihistamines and over the counter steroid creams. Hymenoptera order (bees, wasps, and hornets): Distributed throughout the US, and can also live in the ground. Bees lose their stinger during a sting. Whereas wasps do not and can sting multiple times. Typically stings are just localized for symptoms (pain and swelling) but can become anaphylactic. Treat with IM Epinephrine as the first line. Consider bronchodilators from bronchospasms. Multiple stings (around ~100), can cause end organ damage and rhabdomyolysis outside of just anaphylaxis alone. Require more aggressive management. Fire Ants: Behave similar to bees (in swarm mentality), but have differing venoms. Can also cause global symptoms. Black Widow: No deaths from Latrodectus hesperus (Western Black Widow) recorded in the United States. There are 3 deaths globally from widow species. Two from Madagascar, and one from a Mediterranean species of widow. Debate in the toxicology community about use of the antivenom, which may account for more deaths than the bite itself. Black Widow bites are typically painful. Which is different from bites from recluse species. Brown Recluse: Rare in Colorado Typically painless bite, that creates a center necrotic eschar. Tend to also not be lethal. Bed Bugs Typically harmless and more of a nuisance to have. Can cause localized infections. Bite presents in a "Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner" formation (i.e. linear 2-3 or more bites as the bug tracks and feeds on skin). Will feed primarily on exposed skin. The biggest concern is ensuring no cross contamination from patient to provider or facility. Bed bug bite delivers a small amount of local anesthetic, which can make them hard to detect.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Stacey Rizza, M.D. Although vector-borne illnesses can be acquired by travel to distant parts of the world, some can be acquired here in the U.S. As a result, these infections become pertinent to primary care clinicians as they can produce serious complications. When should we suspect a vector-borne illness in a patient? How do we distinguish it from other viral syndromes? What are some of the serious complications that can occur? In today's podcast, we'll be discussing three vector-borne illnesses including Zika virus, West Nile virus, and Dengue Fever. My guest is an infectious disease specialist, Dr. Stacey Rizza from the Mayo Clinic as we discuss “Vector-Borne Illnesses”. Connect with us!
