How do I find outbreak alerts near me?

Open the map, allow location when prompted, or search a city. Markers link to agency notices with dates and summaries - not personal risk scores.

What diseases appear on the outbreak map?

Signals follow what agencies publish: examples include hantavirus, norovirus, measles, avian influenza, respiratory viruses, and foodborne investigations when health departments post them.

Are these confirmed outbreaks?

Each marker reflects a dated public notice. Wording and laboratory confirmation live in the original source; some pins are regional when cities are not named.

How often are outbreak alerts updated?

Updates arrive when agencies release new notices or when our system picks up changes. Refresh the map or use email alerts for ongoing monitoring.

Is this medical advice?

No. OutbreakThreat is an informational aggregator with source links. Follow clinicians and health departments for care decisions.

What this map tracks

We plot active alerts that include geography and a link to the original agency - WHO Disease Outbreak News, CDC Health Alert Network messages, FDA advisories, ECDC updates, and state or local postings. The map is a discovery tool; it does not estimate cases at your address.

How to read locations

Pins may represent a city, county, region, or entire country depending on the notice. When only country-level text exists, the marker is intentionally broad. Always open the linked source for exposure windows and recommendations.

Why official sources matter

Headlines can omit pathogen names or travel routes. The original notice defines case definitions, testing, and control measures. OutbreakThreat labels credibility tiers but does not replace agency guidance.

Examples people search now

Hantavirus - including 2026 cruise-linked WHO/CDC notices
Norovirus - schools, restaurants, and oyster recalls

Wastewater virus tracking

Every item on OutbreakThreat links to its original source. Read the official notice for case definitions, geography, and guidance - not this summary alone.
