More than 2 million new cancer cases caused by infections in 2024, study finds (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Many people fear cancer and want to know what they can do to prevent it. In some cases, genetics, random mutations, or environmental factors are to blame, making it difficult to avoid a diagnosis. A paper published yesterday in The Lancet Oncology, though, calls attention to a preventable cause of cancer—infections. “An estimated 2.3 million new cancer cases were attributable to infections globally in 2024, which is equivalent to 12% of all cancer cases,” wrote the authors, led by researchers fr
In 2020, US maternal Tdap vaccination rates began dropping after years of steady increases (opens the original)

Hearing an infant gasp and whoop when sick with pertussis (whooping cough) can make any parent feel helpless. Yet such distress can be avoided when pregnant women receive the tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine from 27 to 36 weeks of pregnancy. This protects their babies until they’re old enough to undergo immunization. But rates of US maternal Tdap vaccination slumped from 2020 to 2023, declining from 88.5% to 83.9%, a drop of almost 5 percentage points, a paper publishe
Older adults hospitalized for COVID at increased risk for stroke, data show (opens the original)
Read excerpt
COVID-19–related hospitalization is associated with an increased risk of both hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke, with the greatest danger soon after infection, per a study published last week on the preprint server Research Square. The study, conducted from March 2020 through May 2022, also suggested that being vaccinated for COVID-19 is associated with a lower likelihood of stroke. “COVID-19 requiring hospitalization confers an acute, time-limited increase in stroke risk, of a magnitude somewhat
Sudden infant deaths have increased among Black babies, new data show (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Nothing is more chilling to parents of newborns than the possibility of sudden unexpected infant death (SUID), which accounts for about 3,400 newborn deaths annually in the United States. And while campaigns promoting safe sleeping practices have contributed to fewer of these deaths overall, a study published this week in JAMA Network Open found that SUID rates have increased since 2020 for Black babies while they’ve stayed relatively stable for White infants. “This uptick, and the fact that the
‘I really started to doubt myself’: Young woman’s decade-long struggle with C diff might serve to help others (opens the original)

For as long as she can remember, Minnie Hatch has experienced tons of infections, including those of the urinary tract, sinuses, skin, and ears. Doctors frequently treated her with antibiotics. When she was about 19, she began having distressing gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, including diarrhea and vomiting. “I had abdominal cramping, but it was also complicated by prolonged uterine bleeding, so it went under the radar,” Hatch, 31, of Ogden, Utah, told CIDRAP News. “We got the bleeding to stop,
