## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability thebotwire-com-public-health-announcements-3fb474c6
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest public health outbreak notices from both WHO and CDC — give me up to 20 results from the past 24 hours, and flag anything related to respiratory illness.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, curated public health outbreak alerts and guidance specifically from WHO and/or CDC, with filtering by recency and keyword. Prefer it over general news search when the task requires authoritative health agency sources rather than media coverage, or when building health risk monitoring, travel health, or epidemic surveillance workflows.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned when the freshness window is too narrow and no new notices have been published
- Invalid 'src' enum value returns a validation error
- 'since' parameter with unrecognized format (e.g. '1week' instead of '7d') may be rejected or ignored
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Rate limiting or timeout if upstream WHO/CDC feeds are slow or unavailable

## How this service works
