Alabama Dept. of Public Health reports no measles detected after investigation
COLUMBUS, Ga. () — The Alabama Department of Public Health (ADPH) has determined that the unvaccinated person being investigated in Lee County, Alabama, does not have measles. The ADPH says that due to the extremely contagious risk of measles in unvaccinated people, they regularly launch investigations on suspected cases to ensure that vulnerable and potentially exposed people are informed and protected. 'This investigation began on Saturday afternoon. I appreciate the quick response of the ADPH on call team to ensure that all the response elements were in place, in order to protect Alabama.' ADPH Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Karen Landers said. 'While ADPH has determined that this is not a case of measles, I urge all Alabamians to be vigilant in ensuring that eligible persons are up to date on the MMR vaccine.

Jim Cramer on Cardinal Health: 'I am a Believer'
Cardinal Health, Inc. (NYSE:CAH) is one of the 11 stocks on Jim Cramer's radar. Calling Cardinal Health, Inc.'s (NYSE:CAH) upcoming Investor Day a possible needle mover, Cramer said: 'Now, Thursday brings some analyst meetings that could move the needle. Cardinal Health, we've had them on a couple of times, tells a terrific story about how it's much more than a drug middleman. And I believe, I am a believer.' A senior physician in a modern healthcare institution administering medication to a patient. Cardinal Health (NYSE:CAH) provides medical products and services used in various care settings. The company delivers pharmaceuticals, equipment, and support tools while managing distribution, logistics, and pharmacy operations through healthcare-focused technology. On May 14, Cramer extensively commented on the company as he said: 'These stocks, namely Cardinal Health, Cencora, and McKesson, are seemingly perpetual residents on the new high list. Over the long haul, they're some of the best performers out there, and they've done great this year, as is pretty much always the case. And yet, doesn't it always feel like the drug distributors are just one bad day away from falling apart… Let's not forget that the drug distributors are making fortunes right now. Cardinal Health turned in an excellent set of numbers two weeks ago with double-digit earnings growth. Management put through a big boost in their full-year earnings forecast. Cardinal stock jumped 3% in response, climbing from $141 to $145, and it kept running for really a week after that, eventually setting at an all-time high of $154 just last Thursday. What a fabulous move… While we acknowledge the potential of CAH as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
