## Resource

A mysterious illness strikes passengers aboard a cruise ship off the coast of Cape Verde — and it's not the norovirus you'd expect. In this episode, Dr. Kaveh Hoda is joined by guest cohost Allen Liu and infectious disease physician and global health expert Dr. Krutika Kuppalli to break down the hantavirus outbreak aboard the MV Hondius, what it means for public health in the US, and why it has experts paying close attention, particularly with millions of visitors expected for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and the US stepping back from the WHO. How prepared are we really? Not as much as you would hope, that's for sure. House of Pod merch is here!
