OneMain Financial: What to Know Before Taking Out a Rent Loan
NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 9, 2025 / When money is tight, and rent is due, some people may look for quick solutions to stay in their homes. Rent loans are one option that could help in tough times. A rent loan provides a borrower with a lump sum of money to cover rent when they don't have enough money saved up. While rent loans might offer quick help, it's important to understand how they work and what to expect before applying. Understand the ins and outs of a rent loan A rent loan is a type of personal loan that helps a renter pay their housing costs if they don't have enough money in the bank. First, the consumer borrows a predetermined amount of money and will then typically pay it back over a set period of time by making fixed monthly payments. Each payment covers two parts of the loan. First is the loan principal, which is the original amount that's borrowed, and second is interest, which is the cost of borrowing. Qualified borrowers can apply for rent loans through different types of lenders, including online lenders, banks or credit unions. To get approved, the borrower typically needs a steady income and a favorable credit score - though eligibility requirements vary by lender. Consider a rent loan a quick fix, not a long-term solution A rent loan may help someone when money is tight, but it's not meant to solve long-term financial problems. A rent loan is a temporary solution that should only be used when there's a clear plan to repay it. For example, if someone is between jobs and has new employment starting soon, a rent loan might help bridge the gap. Similarly, if they're waiting on a delayed paycheck or emergency funds, the loan could help them stay on track. But if they don't know when they'll have a steady income again, taking out a loan could cause more harm than good. If a renter ends up needing to take out a rent loan every month just to stay afloat, it may be time to look for other types of help. Different types of financial support could include government assistance or even working out a payment plan with their landlord. Be mindful of any additional fees attached to the loan When taking out a rent loan, the interest rate isn't the only cost. There might be extra fees that result in making the loan more expensive. These might include: All these charges can increase the total cost of the loan. That's why it's important to ask questions and consider all the financial obligations before signing any loan agreement documents. Budgeting for monthly repayments is key It's important for someone to make sure they can repay a rent loan with interest in the given repayment period before they sign on the dotted line. Taking the time to calculate all monthly bills, including groceries, utilities, commuting costs and other regular expenses, and figuring out how a loan repayment fits in, could go a long way to helping someone avoid coming up short and worrying they will never catch up. Making monthly rent loan payments on time and in full may protect the borrower's credit score - but only as long as their other bills stay current too, because late or missed payments could damage the credit score. While a rent loan can help lower financial stress in the short term, it's important to make sure taking on debt doesn't add stress in the long term. Extra debt can be hard to manage without a clear plan for how it fits into someone's overall budget. A renter should make the best choice for their situation Rent loans can help in a tight spot, but they come with real costs. Before taking out a loan, it's important to look at the full picture - how much it will cost, how it will be repaid, how long it will take to be repaid, and whether other options are available. With careful planning and smart choices, it may be possible to stay on top of rent without falling deeper into debt.

Measles Cases Increasing Worldwide, Need the New NV-387 Broad-Spectrum Antiviral to Combat, Says NanoViricides
SHELTON, CT / ACCESS Newswire NanoViricides, Inc., a publicly traded company (NYSE Amer.:NNVC) (the 'Company'), and a clinical stage, leading global pioneer in the development of broad-spectrum antivirals based on host-mimetic nanomedicine technology that viruses cannot escape, announced that its drug candidate NV-387 is the weapon necessary for combatting growing cases of measles worldwide, especially in the industrialized world including, USA, Canada, UK, and European Union. NV-387 is possibly the only drug candidate that has been shown to be effective and safe in animal model studies of Measles virus in humanized h-CD150+ knock-in mice, as reported previously by NanoViricides. NV-387 has completed a Phase I clinical trial with no reported adverse events, indicating excellent safety and tolerability in humans. The development of NV-387 as a treatment for Measles can be accelerated under the US FDA programs. Measles is considered a rare orphan disease in the USA. As such, NV-387 for the treatment of Measles would qualify for an Orphan Drug Designation. Orphan drug designation qualifies sponsors for incentives including tax credits for qualified clinical trials, exemption from user fees, and potential seven years of market exclusivity after approval [1]. The Company also plans to explore a 'Fast Track' designation for the NV-387 Measles indication. If granted, a drug approval can occur on the basis of a successful Phase II clinical trial without requiring a Phase III clinical trial, which significantly reduces the timeline to approval. Measles has become an important disease of concern globally in the recent years for several reasons. Most importantly, Measles disease can wipe out the previously learned immunity of the patient against many infections, including from prior infections, and non-live virus vaccines, making the population vulnerable to viruses that were encountered previously. This is because Measles virus attacks the CD150-bearing immune cells that are responsible for memorizing the prior infections and mounting defenses against them later. Measles is possibly the most communicable diseases, spreading through aerosol, that is known to humans. In patients, it produces severe morbidity with skin rash, pain, fatigue, and other syndromes. Rarely it can cause a brain disease. Measles mostly affects children. There were a total of 1,319 confirmed measles cases reported in the USA as of July 22, breaking the most recent record of 1,274 cases in 2019. Hospitalization rates for measles in the USA are about 13%, and fatalities are rare, although in 2025 there were three deaths to date. Canada is having a much worse Measles season than the USA, with more than 3,800 cases [2] to date in 2025. A Measles holiday warning has been issued in the UK this year [3]. England itself had more than 3,000 cases of Measles in 2024. In the European Region, 127,350 measles cases were reported for 2024, double the number of cases reported for 2023 and the highest number since 1997, according to an analysis by WHO and the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) [4]. Worldwide, Measles cases continue to occur every year. Globally, there have been about 108,000 confirmed measles cases in 2025 to date, while in 2024 there were about 360,000 confirmed cases, according to the WHO [5]. A sustained measles vaccination rate of at least 95% is estimated to be required to maintain community immunity ('herd immunity'). Such a high rate is becoming increasingly difficult to achieve even in developed countries where access to vaccination is not an issue. While growing vaccine hesitancy is considered an important reason for the fall in Measles vaccination rates, two other factors are of importance as well: (i) The overall population in the industrialized world, as well as in developing world, has increased frequency of immune dysfunction, obesity, and diabetes. The people with immune dysfunction or immune compromise are less likely to benefit from almost any standard vaccination as compared to healthy people and are likely to result in breakthrough infections. (ii) Additionally, the current vaccine for Measles is a live attenuated vaccine of the 1968 era, and the virus has evolved well past that, although so far the Measles virus strains continue to be susceptible to antibodies produced from the standard vaccine; this can change with continuing circulation of the virus in vaccinated persons and can result in a virus that can substantially defeat the vaccine [6]. Further, vaccine hesitancy itself is not irrational because the standard Measles vaccine is a live attenuated vaccine to be given to infants at early age; it is a virus infection that continues to remain in the subject, which is why it provides lifelong immunity. Measles infection itself also provides lifelong immunity that includes the current strains of the virus. Thus, the Company projects continuing Measles cases worldwide, that require a drug to control the disease in the patient and its spread to others. We believe NV-387 fills this important medical need. There is no approved drug for treatment of Measles at present. ABOUT NANOVIRICIDES NanoViricides, Inc. (the 'Company') ( is a publicly traded (NYSE-American, stock symbol NNVC) clinical stage company that is creating special purpose nanomaterials for antiviral therapy.
