Who are the Rusyns?
The Carpatho-Rusyns are a distinct Eastern Slavic people who lived for more than a thousand years in remote villages scattered along the foothills and valleys of the Carpathian Mountains of East Central Europe.
Their villages were located mostly among those of Western Slavs (Slovaks and Poles), Hungarians (Magyars), Jews, and Vlachs.
The name Rusyn identifies them as descendants, in part, of a people from the vast lands of ancient Rus’ who were converted to the Eastern Christian Church in the 9th century. This nation’s legacy carries on today in the form of the Belarusian, Russian, Ukrainian, and Carpatho-Rusyn peoples.
Over the years, Rusyns have also been known by a variety of other names – Carpatho-Russians, Carpatho-Ukrainians, Rusnaks, Ruthenes, Ruthenians, Uhro-Rusyns and Podkarpats’ki Rusyny, to name a few. Rusyns typically referred to themselves as Rusnaks or Lemko for those who settled on the northern slopes of the Carpathians. The most accurate term today is specifically Carpatho-Rusyn which distinguishes this group from others who used the term Rusyn historically, but who are not from the Carpathian region.

Mystical tales from Transylvania
Stories of werewolves, witches and vampires still swirl among the peaks and forests of the Carpathian Mountains. Be guided through the country’s myths and legends by a Romanian count.
It’s a freezing midwinter evening just outside the Transylvanian village of Miklósvár, and the forest is eerily quiet. Icicles dangle from the branches and silver blades of sunlight filter through the conifers, casting the forest floor in an iridescent glow. Apart from the crackle of the campfire and the stamp of horses’ hooves, there’s not a sound to break the wintry silence. It’s then that Count Tibor Kálnoky begins to tell the tale of the first time he visited the village witch.

The 8 haunting creatures of Transylvania
STRIGOI
Strigoi are the troubled spirits that are said to have arisen from the grave and have the ability to become invisible, transform into animals, and to gain vitality from the blood of their victims. To put it simply, they are sort of an upgraded version of zombies, mixed with ghosts, vampires, and werewolves (but they still can become any other animal - even into a pretty cat!).
IELE
The iele are feminine mythical creatures described as Faeries with magic skills and great seductive power over men. Ielele live in the sky, in forests, in caves, on isolated mountain cliffs and in marshes, and reported to have been seen bathing in the springs or at crossroads.
MOROI
The exact characteristics of moroi are variable from source to source, but they are the living offspring of two strigoi (and sometimes as an infant who died before being baptized), or the phantom of a dead person which leaves the grave to draw energy from the living.
MURONI
Yes, we know it sounds almost like moroi! But they are different!
The muroni are vampires with the ability to transform into a variety of different animals.
VÂRCOLAC
This is a pretty popular creature haunting the entire world and it is known in English as a werewolf! The "wolf-person" is a human with the ability to shapeshift into a wol
PRICOLICI
Even though it sounds kind of cute in Romanian, and kind of unpronounceable for everyone else, pricolici is a werewolf-vampire fusion. What does this mean?
Pricolici are the undead souls that have risen from the grave to harm living people,
ZBURĂTOR
Zburător is the Romanian word for "flyer", and besides the fact that this creature (well…) can fly, it is a roving spirit who makes love to maidens by night
VAMPIRES
Well, there is no secret that a vampire is a creature that subsists by feeding on the vital essence (generally in the form of blood, but sometimes takes the youthfulness or the energy) of the living. These undead creatures visit the loved ones, scare them or even kills them and their (past) neighbors.

The measles outbreak in Texas is a call to action for all of us to reaffirm our commitment to public health. By working together – parents, healthcare providers, community leaders, and government officials, we can prevent future outbreaks and protect the health of our nation. Under my leadership, HHS is and will always be committed to radical transparency to regain the public’s trust in its health agencies.

ROBERT F. KENNEDY, JR.: Measles outbreak is call to action for all of us
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., tells readers what his agency is doing and what they can do to stop the measles outbreak that has claimed a child's life in Texas.

As the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, I am deeply concerned about the recent measles outbreak. This situation has escalated rapidly, with the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) reporting 146 confirmed cases since late January 2025, primarily in the South Plains region. Tragically, this outbreak has claimed the life of a school-aged child, the first measles-related fatality in the United States in over a decade.
Vaccines not only protect individual children from measles, but also contribute to community immunity, protecting those who are unable to be vaccinated due to medical reasons.
Measles is a highly contagious respiratory illness with certain health risks, especially to unvaccinated individuals. The virus spreads through direct contact with infectious droplets when an infected person breathes, coughs, or sneezes. Early symptoms include high fever, cough, runny nose, and red, watery eyes, followed by a characteristic body rash. Most cases are mild, but rare complications can be severe, including pneumonia, blindness, and encephalitis. Prior to the introduction of the vaccine in the 1960s, virtually every child in the United States contracted measles. For example, in the United States, from 1953 to 1962, on average there were 530,217 confirmed cases and 440 deaths, a case fatality rate of 1 in 1,205 cases.
MEASLES CASES CONTINUE TO SPREAD IN MULTIPLE STATES FOLLOWING CHILD'S DEATH
The current Texas outbreak has predominantly affected children, with 116 of the 146 cases occurring in individuals under 18 years of age. The DSHS reports that 79 of the confirmed cases involved individuals who had not received the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine, while 62 cases had unknown vaccine status. At least five had received an MMR vaccine.

In response to this outbreak, I have directed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR) to work closely with the Texas health authorities to provide comprehensive support. HHS’ efforts include offering technical assistance, laboratory support, vaccines, and therapeutic medications as needed. The CDC is in continuous communication with Texas health officials, ensuring a coordinated and effective response to contain the outbreak. I have spoken with Gov. Greg Abbott and Texas health officials, committing to providing them any additional support they need to bring this outbreak to an end. I have also spoken to the bereaved parents of the deceased child to offer consolation.
FIRST MEASLES DEATH REPORTED IN WEST TEXAS AMID GROWING OUTBREAK
As healthcare providers, community leaders, and policymakers, we have a shared responsibility to protect public health. This includes ensuring that accurate information about vaccine safety and efficacy is disseminated. We must engage with communities to understand their concerns, provide culturally competent education, and make vaccines readily accessible for all those who want them.

It is also our responsibility to provide up-to-date guidance on available therapeutic medications. While there is no approved antiviral for those who may be infected, CDC has recently updated their recommendation supporting administration of vitamin A under the supervision of a physician for those with mild, moderate, and severe infection. Studies have found that vitamin A can dramatically reduce measles mortality.
Parents play a pivotal role in safeguarding their children’s health. All parents should consult with their healthcare providers to understand their options to get the MMR vaccine. The decision to vaccinate is a personal one. Vaccines not only protect individual children from measles, but also contribute to community immunity, protecting those who are unable to be vaccinated due to medical reasons.

Tens of thousands died with, or of, measles annually in 19th Century America. By 1960 before the vaccine’s introduction improvements in sanitation and nutrition had eliminated 98% of measles deaths. Good nutrition remains a best defense against most chronic and infectious illnesses. Vitamins A, C, and D, and foods rich in vitamins B12, C, and E should be part of a balanced diet.
Healthcare professionals on the front lines of this outbreak are working tirelessly to treat affected individuals and prevent further transmission. Their dedication and resilience are commendable, and they deserve unwavering support. It is essential that we provide them with the resources and backing they need to continue their vital work.
The measles outbreak in Texas is a call to action for all of us to reaffirm our commitment to public health. By working together – parents, healthcare providers, community leaders, and government officials, we can prevent future outbreaks and protect the health of our nation.
