  Sunny mornings send you. In local news, health
• 2:42
  officials have confirmed that a passenger with
• 2:44
  measles traveled through Logan Airport's Terminal
• 2:47
  C after arriving from Fort Lauderdale. just after
• 2:50
  midnight on April 14th. The Boston Public Health
• 2:54
  Commission reported that this individual was
• 2:56
  on JetBlue Airways Flight 470 and left the airport
• 3:00
  in a privately owned vehicle. Anyone who was
• 3:03
  in Terminal C between midnight and 2 .30 a .m.
• 3:07
  on April 14th may have been exposed to measles,
• 3:10
  so caution is advised. Currently, there are no
• 3:13
  other known exposure points in Boston. Unvaccinated
• 3:17
  individuals who were exposed should contact their
• 3:20
  health care provider and monitor for symptoms
• 3:23
  for 21 days. Now on to sports. Leman Yemel injured
• 3:34
  himself taking a penalty in Barcelona's La Liga
• 3:37
  match against Celta Vigo on Wednesday. Club sources
• 3:41
  told ESPN that the initial indication is that
• 3:44
  he has a torn hamstring. The severity of the
• 3:48
  tear and the length of time Yemel could be sidelined
• 3:51
  will be confirmed via scans on Thursday. If that
• 3:55
  is the case, Yemel could sit out the rest of
• 3:58
  the season with Barcelona. After the game, Barcelona
• 4:01
  coach Hansi Flick said, We have to wait. We have
• 4:05
  to see what it is. Something happened. Hopefully,
• 4:09
  it is not so bad. In local sports, the Red Sox
• 4:14
  are looking to avoid a sweep tonight against
• 4:16
  the Yankees at Fenway, heading in after dropping
• 4:19
  the first two games of their series. Boston has
• 4:23
  been rough early, sitting at 9 -15, with losses
• 4:26
  in four of their last five, but they get another
• 4:29
  crack at New York at 6 -10. They will need to
• 4:33
  find some offense after being shut out the last
• 4:35
  two nights. Jaron Duran has been the bright spot.
• 4:39
  He went 3 -4 with an RBI in yesterday's 4 -1
• 4:44
  loss. Meanwhile, the Bruins and Sabres are tied
• 4:48
  up at one game apiece, heading into Game 3 tonight
• 4:52
  at the Garden. Boston took Game 2 down in Buffalo,
• 4:57
  4 -2, with Victor Arvidson scoring twice and
• 5:01
  Jeremy Swayman standing tall with 32 saves. Home
• 5:06
  ice matters in the playoffs, and TD Garden is
• 5:09
  going to be loud. The Sabres are a good road
• 5:13
  team, but the Bruins were dominant at home during
• 5:16
  the regular season. On the other front, the Celtics
• 5:20
  head to Philly tomorrow night for Game 3, trailing
• 5:23
  1 -1 in their series against the 76ers. Boston
• 5:28
  has got to tighten up defensively after the 76ers
• 5:31
  shot nearly 50 % from three in Game 2. This one
• 5:36
  is a must -win to avoid heading home down in
• 5:39
  the series. In top news, Elon Musk admits that
• 5:46
  millions of Tesla vehicles will not receive unsupervised
• 5:50
  full self -driving. Tesla cars operating on Hardware
• 5:54
  3 will not get unsupervised full self -driving.
• 5:58
  Approximately 4 million Tesla vehicles use the
• 6:01
  Hardware 3 platform, which means many owners,
• 6:04
  including those who paid for the feature, are
• 6:07
  locked out of unsupervised full self -driving.
• 6:10
  Musk stated that upgrades will be necessary for
• 6:13
  those vehicles. One Dutch Tesla owner was recently
• 6:17
  told by Tesla to just be patient regarding this
• 6:20
  issue. Musk had previously acknowledged the need
• 6:24
  for upgrades on an earnings call in January 2025.
• 6:29
  In business news, Spirit Airlines may receive
• 6:34
  a bailout. What is in it for United States taxpayers?
• 6:38
  Spirit could receive as much as $500 million,
• 6:42
  while the United States government would acquire
• 6:45
  a stake in the struggling airline. Ultra -low
• 6:48
  -cost Spirit Airlines is battling for survival
• 6:51
  during a challenging period for airlines, which
• 6:54
  are reducing flights and increasing fares and
• 6:56
  fees due to soaring jet fuel prices. This week,
• 7:00
  President Donald Trump expressed interest in
• 7:03
  finding buyers for Spirit's parent company, Spirit
• 7:06
  Aviation Holdings, Inc. The Wall Street Journal
• 7:10
  reported that the administration is nearing a
• 7:12
  rescue deal to lend Spirit the funds in exchange
• 7:15
  for a stake in the company. In crypto movement,
• 7:18
  Bitcoin is unchanged at about $78 ,000. Ethereum
• 7:25
  is down 1 % to about $2 ,000. And XRP is down
• 7:30
  2 .5 % to $1 .42. Moving on to a more local vibe.

  morning sent you by. And now, back to the show.
• 8:23
  Let's talk science. The miracle tree removes
• 8:26
  98 % of microplastics from drinking water. Moringa
• 8:31
  is believed to have been used by ancient Egyptians
• 8:33
  to sterilize water. A millennia -old purification
• 8:38
  technique could be the solution for Europe's
• 8:40
  microplastic -contaminated drinking water. In
• 8:44
  a recent study, seeds from the miracle moringa
• 8:47
  tree were found to match or outperform their
• 8:49
  chemical counterpart in filtering out aged polyvinyl
• 8:53
  chloride microplastics, which are among the most
• 8:55
  harmful plastic types for human health. The findings
• 8:59
  could pave the way for a greener alternative
• 9:01
  for treatment plants. Tiny plastic particles
• 9:05
  from various sources have been accumulating in
• 9:08
  global water systems for decades, posing a growing
• 9:11
  health risk. In 2024, the European Union increased
• 9:16
  monitoring protocols for microplastics in drinking
• 9:19
  water. However, last year, researchers cautioned
• 9:23
  that these tiny particles might be evading detection.
• 9:26
  The use of moringa for purification is as ancient
• 9:29
  as it is innovative. With its rapid growth, drought
• 9:33
  resistance, and low water requirements, the perennial
• 9:37
  moringa tree offers a promising solution. And
• 9:43
  in entertainment news, Marquee is shedding light
• 9:47
  on what happened in Las Vegas. From fears over
• 9:51
  the Death Star David Ellison is building to Tom
• 9:54
  Rothman's tirade, all the drama from CinemaCon
• 9:57
  2026 is unfolding. Paramount Skydance chief executive
• 10:02
  officer David Ellison assured that a combined
• 10:05
  Paramount and Warner Brothers would produce 30
• 10:08
  movies a year. After six challenging years, movie
• 10:12
  theater owners arrived in Las Vegas for CinemaCon,
• 10:15
  feeling optimistic about survival. The box office
• 10:19
  increased by more than 23%, thanks to recent
• 10:23
  blockbusters like Project Hail Mary and the Super
• 10:26
  Mario Galaxy movie. However, anxieties lingered
• 10:30
  about the power shift from the merger. Well,
• 10:34
  alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the
• 10:37
  day. And today, our quote comes from the American
• 10:41
  naturalist and author, John Muir. And he said,
• 10:45
  In every walk with nature, one receives far more
• 10:49
  than he seeks. And that's a wrap for this morning.
