In this episode, we lead with our article of the week from the New England Journal of Medicine, “Tirzepatide as Compared with Semaglutide for the Treatment of Obesity.” We then cover the FDA’s authorization of updated, limited-access COVID-19 boosters and ongoing concerns about uptake. Next, we track the seasonal surge in West Nile virus during peak mosquito activity. We also discuss John Cena’s skin cancer story as a timely call for men to adopt better prevention habits. We close with how celebrity recovery narratives, from addiction to anxiety, are reshaping public conversations about mental health.
