Listeners, for today, June 26, 2025, here’s what you need to know about public health alerts in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC, their Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices is meeting today in Atlanta. This committee advises the CDC on vaccine safety and effectiveness. Notably, as of June 9, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., replaced all members of this committee in an effort to rebuild public trust in vaccine science.

Turning to food safety, the CDC has issued a recent warning about a multistate outbreak of Listeria infections connected to FreshRealm chicken fettuccine alfredo meals. Seventeen people in thirteen states have become ill, with sixteen hospitalizations and three deaths in Illinois, Michigan, and Texas. Tragically, one pregnancy-associated case led to fetal loss. The recall applies to ready-to-eat, refrigerated meals sold under the Marketside and Home Chef brands at Kroger and Walmart—not frozen meals. If you have any recalled product, the CDC advises you to dispose of it immediately or return it to where you purchased it, and to sanitize any surfaces that may have come in contact with the food. If you experience symptoms of Listeria infection, such as fever, muscle aches, or gastrointestinal issues after consuming these meals, contact a healthcare provider without delay.

There’s also an active CDC food safety alert for a Salmonella outbreak linked to Emek-brand pistachio cream. Four people in two states have gotten sick, including one hospitalization. No deaths have been reported so far. This product is typically distributed nationwide to wholesale distributors, restaurants, and food service locations. Anyone who has this pistachio cream with a use-by date of October 19, 2026, is advised not to eat, sell, or serve it, and to sanitize all surfaces that may have come into contact with it.

Measles cases continue to be a concern. The American Medical Association reports that as of last week, there have been 1,197 confirmed cases across thirty-five jurisdictions this year. States like Texas, California, Colorado, Michigan, Montana, and Arizona are still seeing new cases. The CDC’s latest updates show that while measles was declared eliminated in the US in 2000, cases are being reintroduced by travelers. The CDC has issued a Level 1 Global Travel Health Notice for measles, urging travelers to be aware that measles remains a risk in many places and can quickly spread upon return to home communities. Travelers should ensure they are up to date on measles vaccinations, especially before going to crowded public venues or traveling internationally.

Additionally, Stat News reports today that public health infrastructure faces potential setbacks, with CDC funding cuts threatening cancer registries that track emerging threats and support routine cancer screening. This could impact the ability of some states to monitor and respond quickly to new public health risks.
