Weekly COVID-19–associated hospitalization rates among children and adolescents rose nearly five-fold during late June–mid-August 2021, coinciding with increased circulation of the highly transmissible SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant. The proportions of hospitalized children and adolescents with severe disease were similar before and during the period of Delta predominance. Hospitalization rates were 10 times higher among unvaccinated than among fully vaccinated adolescents.

Covid-19: Dr Siouxsie Wiles on mask wearing in alert level 2 | RNZ News – New Zealand
If you encountered someone with Covid-19 but you have a mask on, you get home and touch your mask then your face … can you get it that way?
“All of the transmission we know of so far really has been from breathing virus particles in. You can get other viruses that way so it’s certainly not something that I would say is not a risk. It’s another really good reason for washing your hands before you touch your face, try to avoid touching your face. Because not only will you prevent potentially Covid-19 but lots of other infections too.”
What are the best masks to get?
“Any mask is better than no mask, I think the research is showing surgical masks are better than cloth masks but cloth masks are better than nothing.”

¿Sirve de algo?
Vivaldi translation: Absent from feelings and perhaps intoxicated by the envy and indifference that embitters them, imprison them and drag them into suffocating gaps, some people are unable to congratulate people who succeed in some aspect of their existence; However, their behaviors are absurd and contradictory when attending the funerals of those who were denied words of recognition and embracing the mourners and making speeches before the coffins that only contain spoils. Is it of any use to bring flowers, hug the relatives of the deceased and remember biographies, when you were unable to hug, smile and congratulate people who are no longer there?

Ausentes de sentimientos y quizá intoxicados por la envidia y la indiferencia que los amarga, los encarcela y los arrastra a vacíos asfixiantes, algunas personas son incapaces de felicitar a la gente que obtiene éxito en algún aspecto de su existencia; no obstante, sus conductas son absurdas y contradictorias al asistir a los funerales de aquellos a quienes negaron palabras de reconocimiento y al abrazar a los dolientes y pronunciar discursos ante los féretros que solo contienen despojos. ¿Sirve de algo llevar flores, abrazar a los familiares de los difuntos y recordar biografías, cuando se fue incapaz de abrazar, sonreír y felicitar a la gente que ya no está?

Violência Psicológica
Sempre que uma mulher falar, não rocure desdenhar da sua forma de expressar a sua dor. Há quem diga que mulher que fica ” resmungando ” por qualquer coisa é ” frescura”. Não é.
” Ouça o que uma mulher tem para falar sobre os seus traumas psíquicos, ou seja, sobre a violência que se torna sofrimento. É no psíquico que há os danos“. A fala é portanto, uma forma de externa essa dor. Violência doméstica que causa danos psicológicos, não é frescura, é crime.
Pessoas que passam por longos períodos sofrendo esse tipo de violência, têm um desgaste emocional muito grande. Na verdade, muitos deles, tornam-se insuperáveis. A mulher que é vítima da violência psicológica, ela tem um medo interno tão grande de quem a machucou com palavras que ela não consegue voltar a ser o que era. É como se na prática, uma parte do cérebro não…

Boris Johnson’s biggest lie about Europe is finally coming home to roost | Simon Jenkins | The Guardian
Earlier this year, the effects of leaving the single market could be seen in plummeting trade with the continent, even accounting for the pandemic. Additional red tape is awesome. HMRC estimates traders will be handling 215m more import/export documents a year, at an estimated bureaucratic cost of £7.5bn a year. Tariffs may not apply but rules of origin and health standards do. Every truck, every cargo requires inspection. As for migration, the overall shortage of seasonal farm labour, according to BBC Radio 4’s Farming Today, is 20% and often more. Fruit will rot in fields, pigs cannot get to abattoirs and Christmas turkeys will be a “nightmare”. Meanwhile, care homes in England are short of 170,000 staff, and delivery firms short of 100,000 drivers. Hotels have abandoned rooms and restaurant tables. Creative industries – worth £110bn to the UK economy – were forgotten by the Brexit negotiators and are now virtually isolated from Europe.
Germany must engage with Taliban to continue evacuations, says Merkel | Euronews
Germany must engage with the Taliban, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said during a news conference with her party’s election candidate Armin Laschet. “Of course we have to talk to them because they are the ones one needs to talk to now,” Merkel told reporters alongside Laschet who is hoping to succeed the chancellor in the upcoming election. She said they wanted to evacuate people who worked for German development aid projects. Germany also will support international aid organisations that “improve the humanitarian situation in Afghanistan”, citing drought and hunger as major problems. Merkel said it was a “good signal” that Kabul’s airport is “accessible again.”
