Physicians across South Carolina, home to the largest measles outbreak in decades, are advising patients without the benefit of real-time data on hospitalizations due to measles-related pneumonia, bra...

NEW: South Carolina, which doesn’t require hospitals to disclose measles-related admissions, has reported only 20 such hospitalizations since Oct. 2.

this is one of the best hockey games I've ever seen but I keep wondering: are any of these men's hockey players married or related to women that I've heard of? what is the US women's hockey team up to right now

Advocates warn EPA rollbacks will worsen pollution in the Lehigh Valley Public News Service (PNS) is a member-supported news service that advocates journalism in the public interest. PNS's network of state-based news services distribute high quality public interest news…

Health advocates warn air quality in eastern PA could worsen without federal vehicle‑pollution safeguards. In the Lehigh Valley, asthma already affects thousands, especially children living near major trucking routes. State‑level clean‑vehicle efforts could help fill the gap.

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Given how the Seahawks’ kicker and punter are dominating this game, increasingly seems like the Super Bowl MVP can only be one man: longsnapper Chris Stoll, from Penn State.
