   DJ, A possible Lassa-fever case detected in NL...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lassa_fever#Spread or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lassa_fever#Spread ;
Lassa virus commonly spreads to humans from other animals, specifically the Natal multimammate mouse or African rat, also called the Natal multimammate rat (Mastomys natalensis).^[19] This is probably the most common mouse in equatorial Africa, common in human households and eaten as a delicacy in some areas.^[19]^[20]
DJ, Testing on its way to be certain it is an imported-and most likely contained-lassa fever case...So it may not follow the 2022 Mpox-route (or the introduction of HIV-AIDS-maybe first western cases in 1959 ?)

Both flu and measles see record high numbers-not seen in decades...But large regional differences.

In NL both CoViD cases and "flu" -for now- in low numbers.
