New Hampshire resident dies after testing positive for mosquito-borne encephalitis virus

Eastern equine encephalitis poses a significant health risk, with a fatality reported in New Hampshire after a ten-year gap.

What is HMPV and how could it impact travel?

A surge in HMPV cases is causing concern, but it is significantly different from the pandemic implications of Covid-19.
HMPV is not new, with existing global immunity reducing the likelihood of pandemic severity.
