Covid: UK hospital cases set to rise, says health chief – BBC News (Me: British leadership still pretending people can go “normal” while Covid cases climb again)

Dr Jenny Harries

Dame Jenny said people were being encouraged to “go about their normal lives” but in a “precautionary way”.

In England, almost 9,000 hospital beds were taken up with Covid patients on 30 June, a doubling of admissions since the start of the month. Data from the other UK nations is not as up to date but suggests a similar rise in June.

The latest rise in Covid infections – by about 500,000 cases last week according to survey data by the Office for National Statistics – is being driven by two new fast-spreading sub-variants of the Omicron variant, called BA.4 and BA.5.

Término de casamento sempre exige um olhar para trás, e uma nova maneira de mirar no horizonte

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Normalmente se costuma dizer que ” O que Deus uniu, o homem não separa” separa. Separa porque tudo ao redor da relação é cercado de silêncio e mentiras – o que é comum- em todo término de relacionamento amoroso. Mesmo diante de situações onde há consenso entre as duas partes, ainda assim haverá uma sensibilidade maior, por parte de um dos parceiro que se sinta prejudicando de alguma forma. A quebra do vínculo afetivo, geralmente é dramática. Dessa forma, para quem foi omisso ou mesmo negligente, existe sempre um impacto forte, porque gera um sentimento de culpa, constrangimento e outras situações que fragiliza geralmente, aquele que fica digerindo os excessos.

Claro que situações dramáticas são observadas em qualquer tentava de resgatar a memória do que foi vivido outrora. A separação é uma decisão dolorida. E, o pior é que não se encontra muita compreensão nessas horas. A mulher torna-se estigmatizada…

Jayland Walker – Say His Name

Filosofa's Word

Jayland Walker is dead.  More than 60 rounds were shot into his 25-year-old body by police after he exited his car, possibly having fired a gun, fleeing a traffic stop.  Need I tell you that Jayland Walker was Black?

It happened in Akron, Ohio, where police fired more than 90 rounds at Mr. Walker, with over 60 penetrating his body.  Imagine if he had been white … police would have given chase on foot, put out an APB (All Points Bulletin), impounded the car, and never fired a single round, or they would have fired over his head simply as a warning.

The eight officers who collectively shot at and killed Jayland Walker have been placed on paid administrative leave, pending the outcome of the investigation.  Rather like a vacation with pay … as a reward for abusing their position to murder yet another Black man.

A lone young man…

China urges Myanmar junta to hold talks with opponents | The Straits Times

China’s foreign minister called for Myanmar’s junta to hold talks with its opponents on Sunday (July 3) during his first visit to the country since the 2021 coup that plunged it into turmoil.

Beijing is one of the Myanmar military’s few international allies, supplying arms and refusing to label the power grab that ousted Aung San Suu Kyi’s government a coup.

Foreign Minister Wang Yi said China expects all parties in Myanmar to “adhere to rational consultation” and “strive to achieve political reconciliation”.
