Last update: 9 hours agoEarthquake Aftermath (Venezuela): A rare “miracle” rescue ended Thursday when security guard Hernán Alberto Gil Flores was pulled alive after eight days trapped under rubble in La Guaira, with teams from seven countries—including Chile—using careful tunneling, hydration, and oxygen while aftershocks kept the operation risky. Public Health Watch (WHO): The WHO declared the cruise-ship-linked hantavirus outbreak (MV Hondius) officially over after the last exposed contact completed quarantine with negative tests; 13 cases and three deaths were reported, with follow-up across 33 countries/territories. Health System Strain (Venezuela): As the official death toll nears 2,600 and tens of thousands remain missing, attention is shifting from rescues to urgent needs for displaced people, including medical care and outbreak prevention risks in damaged hospitals and shelters. Policy Debate (Surrogacy): UN-backed moves toward a global surrogacy moratorium gained momentum, with states calling for an international pause and abolition efforts amid renewed scrutiny of human rights impacts.
