Schistosomiasis in women and adolescent girls +...

https://www.thelancet.com/series-do/schistosomiasis-in-women-and-adolescent-girls?dgcid=raven_jbs_etoc_feature_schistosomiasis26 Female genital schistosomiasis (FGS) is a chronic genital disease caused by the deposition of Schistosoma haematobium eggs, affecting at least 40 million women and girls worldwide, primarily in sub-Saharan Africa. Women and girls living with FGS face numerous intersecting challenges and health complications, ultimately contributing to urogenital dysfunction and adverse sexual and reproductive health outcomes. In this four-paper Series, we examine sex-specific aspects of Schistosoma infections in women and girls, diagnostic techniques and treatment strategies, barriers to diagnosis and treatment, management during pregnancy and implications for offspring, and the interactions with other genital infections and their clinical implications.

https://www.news-medical.net/news/20260525/How-a-tiny-H5N1-dose-triggers-massive-virus-shedding-in-cow-milk.aspx New cow infection experiments reveal a striking paradox: H5N1 needs only a tiny dose to overwhelm mammary tissue and flood milk with virus, yet it failed to spread through contaminated milking equipment in the lab.
