Hantavirus Update: The MV Hondius outbreak is winding down after genomic work from labs in South Africa, Switzerland and the Netherlands found the virus genomes “practically identical,” supporting passenger-to-passenger spread; meanwhile, the operator says all remaining passengers have disembarked and returned home, with the ship now heading to the Netherlands. Public Health: WHO and European authorities have been tracking cases and stressing the virus is different from COVID, with concerns focused on how infectious it is around symptom onset. Global Politics: China says Taiwan won’t be invited to this month’s World Health Assembly in Geneva, citing the one-China principle. Markets & Money: China set yuan central parity rates for major currencies, while Slovakia’s government points to Fitch’s affirmed A- rating as proof of fiscal progress. Business & Tech: Sunrise and PHOENIQS are pitching a Switzerland-only AI setup for regulated industries, aiming to keep data and hosting inside the country.
