Hantavirus outbreak on cruise ship expands as FDA chief resigns in health roundup

A health roundup reports an ongoing hantavirus outbreak linked to a Dutch cruise ship has grown to 11 cases (9 confirmed) with 3 deaths; WHO says there are no signs of a larger outbreak yet but the long incubation could yield more cases. The package also notes FDA Commissioner Marty Makary’s resignation amid controversy, FDA’s clearance of the first AI-based sepsis early-warning system, and a study showing rising incidence and mortality from candidemia in the US, including increases in Candida auris, alongside other brief health-policy items.
