## Resource

As millions flock to Toronto and Vancouver for the FIFA World Cup, public health teams are deploying cutting-edge wastewater surveillance to catch measles, norovirus, and mpox before symptoms strike. With global outbreaks of Ebola and hantavirus recently rattling health systems, early detection is critical—especially for measles, which spreads fast and hides in plain sight. Cities are beefing up food vendor oversight, stadium medical readiness, and emergency response plans, while the Pan American Health Organization urges travelers to wash hands, eat safely, and protect against bugs. This isn’t just about crowds—it’s about keeping everyone healthy, safe, and ready for the biggest sporting event on Earth. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
