00:03And if you live in Texas or Louisiana, you need to hear both.
00:06First, the CDC has warned U.S. clinicians about a new hantavirus cluster
00:12linked to a cruise ship in the Atlantic.
00:15Hantavirus disease is severe and can be fatal.
00:17While the CDC considers broad U.S. spread extremely unlikely,
00:22health departments across the country have been put on alert.
00:26Second, and more immediately concerning for Texans and Louisianians,
00:30the CDC has confirmed West Nile virus-positive mosquito pools in both Texas and Louisiana.
00:36Flooding conditions from this week's severe storms dramatically accelerate mosquito breeding.
00:42Standing water becomes a breeding ground within 72 hours.
00:45West Nile can cause serious neurological disease and death.
00:49Use EPA-approved insect repellent.
00:51Eliminate standing water around your home.
00:54If you develop sudden fever, headache,
00:56and body aches after mosquito exposure in these states,
00:59seek medical care immediately.
