U.S. Orders 2.5 Million More Monkeypox Vaccine Doses

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced Friday that it has ordered an additional 2.5 million doses of Bavarian Nordic’s JYNNEOS, an FDA-licensed vaccine indicated for prevention of smallpox and monkeypox, for use in responding to current or future monkeypox outbreaks and as part of U.S. smallpox preparedness.

Deliveries from this latest order of the Bavarian Nordic‘s Jynneos vaccine will begin arriving at the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) later this year and will continue through early 2023 HHS said in a statement.

“We are working around-the-clock with public health officials in states and large metro areas to provide them with vaccines and treatments to respond to the current monkeypox outbreak,” said HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra. “This order of additional JYNNEOS vaccine will help us push out more vaccine quickly, knowing that we have more doses on the way in the coming months — and is only possible because of our longstanding investment in smallpox and monkeypox preparedness.”

COVID-19: Israel’s health minister recommends wearing masks indoors – The Jerusalem Post

As the sixth wave of COVID-19 continues to swell, Prime Minister Yair Lapid presided over a meeting in his Jerusalem office on Sunday afternoon to discuss how to cope with the continuing pandemic.

“Maintaining the level of readiness is critical. We are staying on top of it,” said the new premier, as former prime minister Naftali Bennett, Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz and ministry experts and other state officials looked on.

Já não quero falar mais
Como eu gosto de escrever
Pois sei que agora deve ser um segredo.

Talvez seja desejo
Talvez seja medo.
Talvez seja tempo
Talvez seja um tempero

Pode incomodar
Pode apimentar
Pode até azedar
O paladar
Em que alguém não sabe
Me aturar
Me interpretar
Me avaliar.

Que problema seja meu
E não seu.
Que seja apenas harmonioso
Cauteloso
Silencioso
Saboroso

De se ler, de se ouvir
De saber rir
De doces palavras
De doces histórias
De lindos contos
De tantas vezes
Onde eu fui errante
Ouvinte
E negociante

Do breve espaço do que vejo
Do que percebo
Do que escrevo

Que as palavras
Sigam a sina
Sigam a rima
Sigam apenas
A sua sintonia
Na minha humilde
Vidinha.

The Week’s Best Cartoons 7/2

Filosofa's Word

This week, as has been the case for many weeks/months of late, there was plenty for the political cartoonists to choose from.  Recent Supreme Court rulings and Tuesday’s televised hearing of Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony to the January 6th committee are, naturally, the main topics and the cartoonists have done a great job showing us the drama and angst that defines our nation today.  You won’t find much in the way of mirth, but there is a certain dark humour woven into it all.  Please be sure to click on the link at the bottom of this post to see the rest of the cartoons!  Thank you, TokyoSand, for finding some of the best ‘toons from this past dark week.
