    No vaccine, no cure: Nipah virus is back in the news.
    India (West Bengal) just confirmed 2 cases in healthcare workers — one recovering, one critical. Contacts tested negative, and WHO says low risk of wider spread.
    Deadly zoonotic virus (40-75% fatality) from fruit bats, spreads via close contact or contaminated food. High alert in parts of Asia, but not easily transmissible person-to-person.
