Why is the U.S. at risk of losing its measles elimination status? How are health officials reacting to the measles outbreak? And what did top Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services official Mehmet Oz tell hospital executives at a fancy yacht party in San Francisco?
We discuss all that and more on this week's episode of "The Readout LOUD," STAT's weekly biotech podcast. We bring on our infectious disease reporter Helen Branswell to talk about the ongoing measles outbreak in South Carolina and what it means for the U.S. more broadly.
We also chat with our hospitals and insurance reporter Tara Bannow about the financial troubles afflicting nonprofit hospitals and how they spent their time at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference.
