Scientists Conduct Controlled Burns to Enhance Wildfire Protection for Homes

Scientists Conduct Controlled Burns to Enhance Wildfire Protection for Homes

In Richburg, South Carolina, scientists are conducting controlled burns on homes to study how to better protect them from wildfires. This research is being carried out by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety, a nonprofit organization created by insurers to improve building resilience. The experiments involve setting fire to homes constructed with different materials and configurations to observe how they withstand flames. The goal is to identify construction techniques and materials that can mitigate the risk of wildfires, which have been increasing in frequency and intensity due to climate change. The research has already influenced building codes in California, requiring new homes to have ignition-resistant walls and other protective features.

South Carolina Nears End of Largest Measles Outbreak Since 2000

South Carolina Nears End of Largest Measles Outbreak Since 2000

The South Carolina Department of Public Health (DPH) has reported no new measles cases, bringing the state closer to potentially ending its measles outbreak by April 26. Officially declared in October, the outbreak has been the largest in the U.S. since measles was declared eradicated in 2000, with 997 cases reported, primarily in Spartanburg County. The DPH attributes the slowdown in new cases to increased vaccination rates in January and February. The outbreak's end is contingent on a 42-day period without new cases, twice the disease's incubation period. A recent case in Saluda County, linked to international travel, is unrelated to the outbreak and will not affect its potential conclusion.
