Happy Father’s Day to all the dads making a difference every day.

As Men’s Health Week comes to a close, let’s remember: healthy fathers help build healthy families. Yet too many men face chronic disease, obesity, and mental health challenges.

Take back your health. Eat real food. Stay active. Lead by example.

A Virus with a Fatality Rate of up to 75% Is Triggering New Screening Measures in Asia

Thailand and Nepal have begun screening travelers arriving from regions of India where new cases of the Nipah virus have been confirmed.

Why does this matter?

Nipah is considered one of the world’s most dangerous emerging viruses. It can spread from fruit bats and other animals to humans, and in some cases from person to person. According to the World Health Organization, the virus carries a mortality rate ranging from 40% to 75%, and there is currently no approved vaccine or specific treatment.

The WHO has listed Nipah among its priority pathogens due to its potential to trigger future epidemics.

Events like this highlight the growing importance of early detection, environmental monitoring, and real-time biosecurity technologies that can help identify emerging biological threats before they spread widely.

Preparedness begins with awareness.

For decades, invisible threats could be monitored—radiation, chemicals, pollution. But airborne biological threats often remained unseen until people became sick.

Viktor Tomashev believed there had to be a better way.

That vision became the foundation of the BD-500 Biodetector.
