Africa: Human Spread of Hantavirus Not Ruled Out On Cruise Ship: [UN News] Hantavirus victims on a ship in the Atlantic Ocean may have been infected prior to joining the cruise and human-to-human transmission on board cannot be ruled out - although it is rare - the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Tuesday. http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TSP2D5 #Hantavirus #PublicHealth #WHO #CruiseShip #Epidemiology

Not to be snarky but it's been on CVD panels and risk panels for type 2 diabetes since 2004 or so that I recall.

Rising global temperatures and shifting climate patterns are projected to drive rodent-borne arenaviruses into previously unaffected regions of South America over the next two to four decades, significantly increasing the risk of zoonotic spillover to new human populations.

Climate Change Drives Arenavirus Risk

A new UC Davis study shows how climate change will drive deadly rodent-borne arenaviruses into new regions, increasing outbreak risks for millions.

Parasitology: In-Depth Description

Parasitology is profoundly critical to global public health, agricultural stability, and ecological conservation.

The article notes that more conservative social attitudes are associated with higher fertility across a large international sample, with the strength of the link varying by country and being stronger among women. The findings highlight patterns across ideology, religion, gender roles, and views on equality and partner religiosity in relation to the number of children reported.

This topic is of interest to psychology because it connects social attitudes and fertility with potential evolutionary and cultural factors, illustrating how beliefs and values may relate to reproductive behavior across diverse contexts.
