Hantavirus, Norovirus & Vaccines: Keeping Your Family Safe at Sea and at Home
Monday, 8 June, 2026
Dr. Sarah Adams welcomes back Dr. Ravi Jhaveri, Head of Pediatric Infectious Disease at Lurie Children's Hospital, for a timely conversation about the viruses making headlines and what families need to know before summer travel. They cover the current state of vaccine recommendations, the measles resurgence, and why diseases that have largely disappeared from public view are still very real threats. Dr. Ravi addresses the hantavirus outbreak that put cruise ships in the news, explains how norovirus spreads and why hand sanitizer alone won't protect you, and breaks down the early symptoms of Ebola for families traveling internationally. The conversation also touches on the hepatitis A vaccine, practical packing tips for healthy travel, and why immunocompromised children, older family members, and everyone in between should consult their doctor well before a big trip.Have questions about today’s episode, or anything else related to the health and wellness of your family?
