By learning lessons from other sectors, public health can ensure it is ready to face future outbreaks in record time.

Mikki Willis, the maker of viral conspiracy film Plandemic, is seeking to leverage his relationship with Tulsi Gabbard to gain access to the new Donald Trump administration.

Privacy advocates worry banning masks at protests will encourage harassment, while cops’ high-tech tools render the rules unnecessary.

At his Madison Square Garden rally, Donald Trump all but promised that conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has pushed crank science for decades, would have a role in a prospective administration.

The attention being paid to a Chinese outbreak of a virus often confused with flu is a sign that respiratory infection tracking is improving.

A surveillance system proven during Covid-19 is now being used to track outbreaks of RSV.

New vaccines could help stem the spread of respiratory syncytial virus, but there are already huge inequities in access and uptake.

RSV infects almost every child before they turn 2, and kills more than 100,000 infants worldwide each year. Machine learning and statistical models are identifying those most at risk.

This is the first case of H5N1 in the US this year that has sent a patient to the hospital.

Researchers have been working on mRNA flu vaccines since before the Covid-19 pandemic, but we may get one for bird flu first.

The search for a shot that could protect us against many strains—and maybe a pandemic—is notching achievements at last. But the flu’s endless mutation and our own biology stand in the way.

A study of bones held in a Cleveland museum reveals a new side to the pandemic’s story—and a new way to think about pandemics to come.

One billion people experience migraines, yet the perfect treatment is still out of reach. Can a vibrator offer a surprising solution?

Women suffer from migraines three times as often as men, and often with more intensity. New research into the role of hormones is helping explain why.

Migraine sufferers are often triggered by the weather, and research suggests warming temperatures and more extreme weather events worsen attacks.

Research on the visual patterns that foreshadow migraines may reveal clues on how painful headaches arise from the brain even though it has no pain receptors.
