Iran tensions, hantavirus deaths, sauna raves, and more
About this episode
The U.S. and Iran are once again trading shots. Neither side has declared an end to the ceasefire, but there has been new fighting in some parts of the Gulf Region. The trigger appears to be U.S. attempts to escort ships out of the Strait of Hormuz.
And: About 150 people, including four Canadians, have been stuck on a cruise ship amid a suspected hantavirus outbreak. Three people are dead, and others became sick on board the ship, which is being held off the coast of West Africa. Only two cases have been officially confirmed. Hantavirus is a respiratory illness, and spreads when particles from rodent droppings become airborne. It does not transfer easily between humans.
Also: No alcohol, but lots of music, and lots of steam. Sauna raves are gaining momentum in some Canadian cities.
Plus: Hundreds of thousands of Albertans sign a petition calling for a referendum on separation, Ottawa unveils measures to help some industries hit hard by U.S. tariffs, flood mapping failures, and more.
