Health experts warn of rare deadly disease found in Georgia – WSB Atlanta

ATLANTA — The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says a person from Georgia has died from a rare disease usually found in South Asia: Melioidosis. The new death brings the total number of confirmed cases to four in different states. The cases have included adults and children. Two of the four patients had no known risk factors for melioidosis; two died. None of the cases from Georgia, Kansas, Minnesota or Texas traveled internationally, puzzling experts.

High-fashion history changes course with Virgil Abloh x Nigo for Louis Vuitton

Shortly after arrived Prada’s Spring/Summer ’21 spectacle (showcased during Milan Fashion Week), which was a combined projection of head-honcho Miuccia Prada’s vision and designer Raf Simons’ in...

A logo is pictured at the World Health Organization (WHO) building in Geneva, Switzerland, February 2, 2020. REUTERS/Denis Balibouse/File Photo CONAKRY, Aug 9 (Reuters) - Health authorities in Guinea have confirmed one death from Marburg virus, a highly infectious hemorrhagic fever similar to Ebola, the World Health Organization said on Monday.
