Fentanyl vaccine aims for mid next year clinical trials
University of Houston researchers develop a fentanyl vaccine to block the drug from entering the brain and causing overdoses. Ovax holds the license to test and produced funding to advance the effort, with over 10 million raised by June. Public health context and vaccine development timelines frame a cautious path forward.

Publishers sue Florida over book bans in schools
A coalition led by Penguin Random House, Simon & Schuster, HarperCollins and others filed a federal suit in Orlando challenging HB 1069. They argue the law chills First Amendment rights by allowing broad removals for depictions of sexual conduct, without clear standards, and by permitting pre removal review by teachers and staff. The suit seeks to restrict use of the law rather than overturn it entirely, and cites hundreds of removals tied to State action and local objections. It names state education officials and several county school boards as defendants.
