 U.S believes Russia providing Iran intelligence on locations of US troops, sources say U.S. officials believe Russia has been sharing intelligence with Iran that includes the locations of American troops, aircraft, and naval vessels operating in the region, according to two people familiar with the intelligence assessments. An intelligence official also confirmed that the United States has concluded Russia is providing such information to Tehran.

SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED RINGWORM OUTBREAK SPREADING IN MINNESOTA, HEALTH OFFICIALS WARN. (PHOTO).



Sexually transmitted ringworm outbreak spreading in Minnesota, health officials warn

Health officials in Minnesota are warning of a sexually transmitted form of ringworm, caused by the fungus Trichophyton mentagrophytes genotype VII, or TMVII, which has been spreading in the Twin Cities area. Dozens of confirmed and suspected cases have been reported since last summer, marking the largest U.S. outbreak of this strain to date. Doctors are being asked to report any cases, and anyone with suspicious rashes—especially following sexual contact—should seek medical care and alert partners.

TMVII differs from typical ringworm infections in that it spreads primarily through sexual contact and often causes painful, highly inflammatory rashes that can persist and leave permanent scarring. While ringworm in general is treatable with antifungals, TMVII cases frequently require extended treatment and can lead to secondary infections if left untreated. Minnesota officials report 13 confirmed and 27 suspected cases so far, with most cases occurring in men who have sex with men. Preventive measures include avoiding skin-to-skin contact if a rash is present, covering affected areas, not sharing personal items, and practicing thorough handwashing.
