The World Health Organization declared the global monkeypox outbreak a public health emergency.

Monkeypox is a viral infection similar to smallpox that can cause flu-like symptoms, including fever, fatigue, headache, and enlarged lymph nodes. There are currently 16,000 cases globally and 3,487 confirmed cases in the U.S. This is roughly five times the number of reported cases when WHO advisers met in June on the disease.
This is the second public health emergency in two years. WHO has used this declaration for only two other diseases – COVID-19 and polio.

More than 400 beagles bred for pharmaceutical research and testing were removed on July 21 from a Virginia-based Envigo RMS facility that was found to be in violation of several federal animal welfare regulations.
The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is coordinating with animal rescue groups across the country to rehome around 4,000 beagles after a federal judge ordered the facility to release the dogs within 60 days.
