White House launches ‘one-stop’ website for COVID-19 needs | CIDRAP

President Joe Biden today announced the launch of covid.gov, a new one-stop shop for finding COVID-19 vaccines, masks, tests, and treatments by county on an easy-to-use website.

“We are in a new moment in this pandemic, it does not mean it’s over, it means it no longer controls our lives,” Biden said, before announcing he was getting his second booster dose of vaccine later this afternoon. “Thanks to the foundation we have laid, America has the tools to fight the virus.”

Despite the optimistic message, Biden warned that the federal government only has enough money to fund COVID-19 monoclonal antibody treatments until the end of May, and he pleaded with Congress to authorize more money for COVID-19 response.

Biden also warned that a lack of funds would mean booster shots may not be free in the fall, when many experts expect all Americans will be eligible for a fourth booster shot. Yesterday, the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) approved the use of a fourth dose for Americans 50 and older who have seen at least 4 month elapse from their first booster dose.

Facebook Paid GOP Firm To Malign TikTok – Slashdot

Employees with the firm, Targeted Victory, worked to undermine TikTok through a nationwide media and lobbying campaign portraying the fast-growing app, owned by the Beijing-based company ByteDance, as a danger to American children and society, according to internal emails shared with The Washington Post. Targeted Victory needs to “get the message out that while Meta is the current punching bag, TikTok is the real threat especially as a foreign owned app that is in sharing data that young teens are using,” a director for the firm wrote in a February email. Campaign operatives were also encouraged to use TikTok’s prominence as a way to deflect from Meta’s own privacy and antitrust concerns. “Bonus point if we can fit this into a broader message that the current bills/proposals aren’t where [state attorneys general] or members of Congress should be focused,” a Targeted Victory staffer wrote.

Arthritis medication can be used to treat alopecia – Mágica Mistura を

Some patients have also reported side effects, such as acne, respiratory tract infection, headache and high cholesterol levels. In addition, the drug’s mechanism of action involves “crossing” the immune system, which can undermine the fight against other threats. Patients with arthritis that already do drug use may be more vulnerable to infections.

What baricitinib does is to inhibit a protein called Janus kinase, or JAKs. These enzymes are involved in several areas, including the immune system. Inhibitory drugs, such as baricitinib, are able to decrease the immune response in some patients, allowing hair follicles to grow again.

The possible new treatment is not a silver bullet, but it has shown encouraging results in part of the patients. More research is needed to assess long-term safety and effectiveness.

The drug baricitinib reduced hair loss in one third of patients in a clinical study. Understand the disease that affects actress Jada Smith.

Hoy, simplemente agradezco

Cuando uno siente admiración y respeto ante el milagro de la vida, agradece la dicha del nacimiento y el encanto de recorrer las mañanas y las noches, las tardes y las madrugadas, durante los años que dura el paseo terreno, entre una estación y otras más, con sus luces y sus sombras, en una dualidad que, a veces, por lo complejo de sus rasgos, parece indescifrable. Cuando uno, a cierta edad, visita su biografía y revisa minuciosamente cada momento y capítulo, descubre que ha recibido bendiciones. Hoy, al cumplir un año más de edad, agradezco a la Creación, a la Mente Infinita -Dios-, la oportunidad de que mi alma, libre e inmortal, encarnara en el hombre que soy, en la identidad que me distingue, y así, en armonía y en equilibrio con la vida, confieso que me siento feliz…

Baumwurzeln – Kunstwerke der Natur

Senioren um die Welt

Baumwurzeln sind faszinierende Gebilde, die bei dem einen oder anderen die Fantasie anregen können. Bereits der großartige Maler Vincent Van Gogh war davon so angetan, dass er sein letztes Werk “Baumwurzeln” nannte, das Kunstwerk von 1890 wurde quasi zu seinem Vermächtnis. Die originale Vorlage für dieses Kunstwerk befand sich in einem Ort in der Nähe von Auvers-sur-Oise in Frankreich, wie Forscher des Van-Gogh-Museums in Amsterdam inzwischen herausgefunden haben. Aber auch anderswo sieht man bemerkenswerte Baumwurzeln .
