Hantavirus Watch: Georgia is still in the mix as public health teams monitor possible exposures tied to the MV Hondius cruise outbreak, with WHO saying more cases are likely but no sign of a wider global wave—while two patients are being evaluated at Emory and others are quarantined in Nebraska. Water & Drought: High Falls Lake near Macon is dealing with a second appearance of an oily black substance, and residents are furious about slow answers as EPD investigates; meanwhile the Ogeechee River is visibly shallow under drought conditions, raising worries about low oxygen for fish and impacts deeper in the aquifer. Local Infrastructure: GEFA approved $74.7 million in loans for water, wastewater, and solid waste projects across 14 Georgia communities. Data Center Backlash: DeKalb County again deferred data-center zoning rules, pushing a key vote to June. Environmental Health Leaders: A national list spotlights 12 cities taking action on air quality, extreme heat, and lead line replacement.
