Wuhan native Liu Pei’en closed down his financial investment organization and converted to Buddhism to attempt to make sense of his father’s death last January from suspected Covid-19
Zhong Hanneng still struggles to sleep or consume following the death of her kid from the disease nearly 10 months ago, and says friends and loved ones are avoiding her family due to the fact that of sticking around fears of infection.
One year after the coronavirus began spreading from the city, they and other Wuhan next-of-kin are no nearer to closure, as the Chinese government’s refusal to take obligation for early failures in the outbreak makes complex the task of concerning terms with their loss.
Liu’s 78- year-old daddy, Liu Ouqing, a career public servant and previous Communist Party secretary of Wuhan’s grain bureau, developed Covid-19 signs after signing in to a hospital for a routine health test, uninformed of the rapidly spreading out danger. His medical diagnosis was never validated as test kits were scarce then. He died on January 29.
” You might say I also passed away January 29,” Liu, 44, stated in an interview on his daddy’s birthday at the family home in an upscale Wuhan area.
Liu invested much of 2020 in “a kind of insanity,” using social networks to carry his anger over the federal government’s handling of the outbreak. “I was very angry. I wanted vengeance,” Liu said.
Families implicate the local government of at first concealing the break out’s emergence in December 2019, pressuring physicians to keep quiet and denying human-to-human transmission.
The threat was hidden from people for weeks, allowing the infection to blow up into an international pandemic. Almost 4,000 people died in Wuhan, according to official figures, the vast bulk of China’s deaths.
Secrecy, rejection
Exhausted and frustrated, Liu later on focused his energy on Buddhist philosophy. He now avoids meat, alcohol, and social gatherings. He mothballed his effective financial investment business, stating cash has “no significance” any longer.
Liu is now on a spiritual mission for the “unbiased fact of deep space,” marking his dad’s birthday at a majestic temple, where he lit candles and hoped before a towering three-metre (10- foot) golden Buddha.
China’s federal government is notoriously allergic to criticism and its initial errors in Wuhan are amongst the nation’s most politically sensitive topics. A number of next-of-kin declined AFP interview requests or suddenly cancelled.
The government continues to evade duty, instead promoting unverified theories that the pathogen came from elsewhere, while trumpeting its subsequent success in suppressing it.
But Zhong, a 67- year-old retired person, blames city authorities for the death of her child Peng Yi, a 39- year-old main school teacher.
He passed away in mid-February after a discouraging two-week quest to get confessed to overcrowded medical facilities, leaving behind a spouse and young daughter.
Zhong is amongst a handful of Wuhan citizens who have attempted to sue the city. Courts have refused to accept the fits.
Her household talk daily to a framed portrait of Peng, filling him in on household matters, and set out chopsticks and a bowl of food each night for him at dinner. The discomfort at the table is often excruciating, she says. She stays haunted by the image of her child passing away alone in an ICU ward.
” I worry that I will get anxiety. I feel very irritable and uncomfortable every day,” she said, as a bone-chilling rain drenched the grey and uninspiring city.
‘ Really lonesome’
Wuhan is clawing back to typical, however worry of the infection remains, specifically with another winter season setting in.
hong thinks she and her partner also had the infection but recovered and voices suspicions, extensive in Wuhan, that case numbers and deaths are actually far higher as lots of went undiagnosed.
Worry of capturing the infection from Zhong’s family has actually triggered a rift with other pals and relatives. “Nobody wants to connect with us. We are extremely lonely. Really lonely,” Zhong stated.
Lots of next-of-kin have joined social networks groups for shared support and to discuss legal alternatives. The groups have been infiltrated by police, who bother and threaten participants, say members.
And there is infighting, with more litigious group members implicating others of cowardice for not pursuing lawsuits, Liu stated.
” There’s a Chinese saying, ‘distress your own people, and you gladden the opponent,'” Liu stated. “The police are really happy to see this abuse between member of the family.”
Wuhan’s government did not react to AFP ask for remark.
A 36- year-old Wuhan woman who lost her father to suspected Covid said she wants the world to understand about the city’s eventful preliminary “cover-up.” “We didn’t understand it was so major,” she stated, speaking on condition of privacy.
Like Zhong, she complains that buddies and family members are resisting contact and feels depressed about her loss and the federal government “whitewash.” “Life will go on, however there is no chance to clean away this shadow.”
A Christmas bubble loophole suggests households might spend at least 6 days together if” unpredicted interruption to travel” comes into play.
Brits are enabled to blend three homes inside between December23 and 27 as part of acoronavirusconstraints loosening throughout the festive duration- regardless of fears of a 3rd wave.
But brand-new policies published on Monday state the bubble might last longer than the initial 5 days for some if their train is postponed or their car breaks down.
The Federal government standards say bubbles can be momentarily extended “right away after the Christmas duration”, with the loophole using to all members even if only one person is impacted.

Meanwhile, there are exceptions for kids whose parents live independently and trainees can travel home from Thursday prior to returning to university up to February 8.

While companies could be forced to pay out up to ₤10,000 for arranging unlawful gatherings.
From Wednesday, all but a couple of hundred thousand individuals in England will be in Tiers 2 or 3, banning mixing doors as Boris Johnson’s national lockdown comes to an end.

Tier 2 procedures also include a ban on going to the club unless it serves significant meals and only with individuals in your family.
In Tier 3, which includes around 23.3 million individuals living in big swathes of the Midlands, North East and North West, bars and dining establishments are closed other than for takeaway drinks.
The tier system is set to remain in location until March.
Mr Johnson has actually emphasised the tiers will be examined every two weeks, with the very first on December 16.
MPs will vote on the Tiers plan on Tuesday.
The Prime Minister supposedly faces a mutiny from up to 70 Tory MPs after setting out which areas would undergo which tiers, with just Cornwall, the Island of Wight and the Isles of Scilly in Tier 1 – amounting to 714,000 individuals.
Around 16 million individuals in Tier 3 areas are expected to be downgraded to Tier 2 at the first review.
Chris Whitty, the primary medical officer for England, however, formerly put the dampeners on the prospect of widespread alleviating prior to Christmas, arguing “likely anywhere that goes into Tier 1″ will experience an increase in cases”.
He said the Government might only risk dropping areas into the bottom tier if they’re “really confident indeed”, with winter season being an infamously hard time for the currently stretched NHS.
Teacher Whitty added that only when vaccines are rolled out next year might the nation “little by little” start to “go out of this down the tiers”.
With increasing demands in health care services to keep up with current skills and knowledge, the need for upgrading and updating of new techniques and procedures is fundamental in job search in Canada. The Phlebotomy is an integral part of modern-day health care system, making the required knowledge of the procedure and its associated steps, a very significant tool for all the medical office team members. This certificate program on Phlebotomy at Springfield College of Healthcare, Management & Technology Ontario, Canada is aimed to dispense the knowledge of the procedure and skills necessary to draw blood and other specimens and other associated steps involved in medical settings, using proper techniques and routine practices. This video covers the introductory steps in Clinical Phlebotomy practice.

An old story about glass goes something like this: A glassmaker, providing his wares to the Roman emperor Tiberius, handed over a bowl for assessment. The development of Valor Glass started in 2011, when Corning’s scientists were working to transform medical vials, which had not changed significantly for a century. Afterward, the glass is washed, and the outside is offered a polymer covering, so that bottles don’t grind against one another on a filling line, creating glass dust that can mess up dosages.

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo speaks during a daily briefing in New York City, July 13, 2020. (Mike Segar/Reuters)
Governor Andrew Cuomo said Monday that New York hospitals are struggling to avoid being overwhelmed as coronavirus cases and hospitalizations in the state continue to rise.
“We are now worried about overwhelming the hospital system, and if those numbers continue to increase, which we expect they will, you will see serious stress on the hospital system,” Cuomo said at a press briefing Monday in Manhattan.
“Hospital capacity is the top concern, period,” the governor said. “It’s about hospital beds, it’s about ICU, and it’s about having enough staff and enough equipment.”
Cuomo said the state will attempt to prevent hospitals from running out of resources by requiring that hospitals transfer patients within their system to prevent a particular location from becoming overwhelmed. Hospitals may also have to transfer patients between different systems such Northwell and NYU Langone if necessary.
The governor also said every hospital in the state is required to start preparing a list of retired doctors and nurses who could potentially be recruited to aid health care workers on the front lines should they need additional staff. Many of the around 30,000 health care workers who came to New York earlier this year to help when New York City was the country’s coronavirus epicenter are likely not available now as other areas of the country grapple with their own case surges.
Some areas are already facing staffing shortages, an issue Cuomo said he was more concerned about than running out of hospital beds.
“We can build beds. We can’t create more staff. And the staff is starting tired,” Cuomo said.
“We’re not going to live through the nightmare of overwhelmed hospitals again,” the governor said. “This was a serious issue last time.”
The state’s positive test rate for the virus reached a record 4.57 percent on Sunday, the highest level since May in the thick of the initial outbreak. This month, New York implemented new restrictions on social gatherings as holiday travel is expected to exacerbate the current rise in cases.

More than 433,000 additional COVID-19 cases and over 10,000 deaths came after state-level eviction bans expired over the summer, according to new research out Monday.
Forty-three states and the District of Columbia instituted temporary eviction bans in response to the widespread joblessness caused by the pandemic in the spring. But once some of those moratoriums lapsed and landlords were allowed to boot tenants, there were an estimated 433,700 excess cases and 10,700 deaths from COVID-19 nationwide, according to a study led by Kathryn Leifheit, an epidemiologist and postdoctoral fellow at the University of California, Los Angeles’ Fielding School of Public Health.
And the researchers warn there will be another related rise in COVID cases after federal eviction protections expire on New Year’s Eve, putting non-paying tenants once again at risk of removal.
“Lifting eviction moratoriums was associated with increased COVID-19 incidence and mortality in U.S. states, supporting the public health rationale for use of eviction moratoriums to prevent the spread of COVID-19,” the researchers wrote in their study, which hasn’t been peer-reviewed yet and “is being released as a preprint due to the time-sensitive nature of the research,” according to its abstract.
“Effects grew over time, perhaps due to mounting displacement, crowding, and/or homelessness as evictions proceeded,” the study’s authors wrote.
For months, the order has provided a valuable shield to renters in states where protections have otherwise expired or were inadequate to begin with—despite the objections of landlords, who have filed lawsuits to overturn the rule.
But the CDC’s ban only lasts through December 31, and neither legislators nor the Trump administration has acted to extend it even as COVID-19 infections and deaths rise across the country.
The renter protections are set to lapse in a period of immense financial vulnerability, since an estimated 12 million people will lose their pandemic jobless benefits on Dec. 26, and swaths of the economy remain shattered from the impacts of the pandemic. As many as 40 million people may face removal from their homes—impacting up to 43% of all renter households, according to research published earlier in the pandemic.
“Without robust eviction moratoriums in place, we can expect to see higher incidence and death throughout the country,” Emily Benfer, a law professor at Wake Forest University who was involved in the study, wrote on Twitter Monday. “With only 14 state/DC moratoriums remaining and the @CDCgov moratorium expiring shortly, #eviction will contribute to #COVID19 surges.”
Twenty-seven of the states ended their moratoriums during the study period of March 13 to September 3, according to Monday’s research, which controlled for the lifting of stay-at-home orders, school closures, and mask mandates.
The researchers note that the severity of associated COVID-19 cases may have also arisen from “structural racism and poverty,” since evictions are more common among Black and Latino households—the same communities that are at a disproportionate risk for virus deaths.
“Future research should investigate associations between lifting moratoriums and racial/ethnic disparities in COVID-19 outcomes,” the researchers wrote.

A COVID-19 testing facility at Scarborough Health Network’s Centenary hospital, in Toronto on Nov., 28, 2020.
Christopher Katsarov/The Globe and Mail
Canada is on track to have 4,000 coronavirus patients in hospital by Christmas, a figure that would eclipse the peak of the first wave and put tremendous pressure on a health-care system already pushed to the brink by nine months of battling the pandemic.
A new analysis conducted for The Globe and Mail by researchers at British Columbia’s Simon Fraser University projects that the number of Canadians admitted to hospital for treatment of COVID-19 will continue to grow, with the steepest increases in the West, particularly in Alberta.
If Alberta stays on its current trajectory, the province’s physicians and nurses will be caring for more COVID-19 patients – as many as 1,300 in the worst-case scenario – than Ontario, which has three times the population. There were 435 COVID-19 patients in Alberta hospitals on Sunday.
By contrast, Ontario and Quebec, the twin epicentres of Canada’s spring wave, are expected to see slower growth in the number of COVID-19 hospital admissions over the next four weeks, but growth nonetheless.
Meanwhile, the number of new cases reported daily across the country has increased by more than 2,000 since the beginning of November and is closing in on 6,000 a day.
Jens von Bergmann, the mathematical modeller who produced the hospitalization forecasts for The Globe, stressed that his projections offer a glimpse of what could be, not what has to be, even though the lag between infections and admissions mean part of the trend is already baked in.

CAROLINE COLIJN, SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY
Recently imposed government restrictions and individual choices could turn the tide, he said. “The key is that in all of these models, we are actually still in control of what’s going to happen at the end of December.”
Over the past week, there has been an average of just over 2,000 COVID-19 patients being treated in Canadian hospitals, 420 of them in critical-care units, according to a Globe and Mail tally of provincial data. Both figures have nearly doubled since the end of October.
The national totals aren’t as high as the peak of the first wave, when the seven-day average of cases in hospital topped 3,000 in mid-April. But the geography of the second wave is different.
Gone are the days when COVID-19 was primarily a Central Canadian scourge. Hospitals in Manitoba, Alberta and B.C. have long blown past their spring peaks. Manitoba hospitals were treating an average of 285 coronavirus patients a day last week. They averaged 11 at the height of the first wave. While Quebec and Ontario are generally in better shape, hospitals in their hot zones are struggling.
Canada’s hospitals held up well during the first wave, thanks to the staff and space freed up by halting elective procedures and a collective effort to bend the curve. This time, hospitals are caring for COVID-19 patients and trying to keep scheduled surgeries running at the same time, all while staff are experiencing existential levels of exhaustion and the public has grown weary of physical distancing.
Doctors, nurses and other hospital workers will be all the more burned out – and less able to provide the best care for patients – if the SFU team’s worst-case projections for coronavirus hospital admissions come to pass.
“[People] talk about front-line workers as if there’s somebody waiting in the wings to step in if we fall,” said Meighan Jones, an emergency nurse in Edmonton. “But there is nobody waiting in the wings. We’re all that there is.”
Western hospitals struggling
Doctors and nurses in the Western hot spots of Manitoba and Alberta have, for weeks now, been warning the public that parts of the health care system could collapse under the pressure of COVID-19. At the end of last week, a hospital in Grandview, Man., northwest of Winnipeg, became one of the first acute-care facilities to close as a side effect of the pandemic.
Grandview Health Centre’s hospital and emergency services were temporarily suspended at 8 a.m. Thursday morning. As the sun came up that day, residents in idling vehicles lined Highway 366 and Mill Street, where the facility sits, in part to support patients being transported elsewhere and in part to protest against a temporary closing that they fear will become permanent.
Manitoba’s intensive-care units were operating at 152-per-cent capacity Friday, with COVID-19 patients occupying 46 of the province’s 110 beds in this category. But while Manitoba’s hospitals are struggling to keep up with the influx of patients, the Grandview facility was shuttered because of weakness in the long-term care branch of the health system. Grandview Health Centre’s employees have been redeployed to Grandview Personal Care Home, where 15 residents and two staff members have COVID-19.
Steinbach, a city of about 16,000 people southeast of Winnipeg, is overrun with the coronavirus. Roughly 40 per cent of the area’s COVID-19 tests come back positive. Earlier this month, prospective patients at Steinbach’s Bethesda Regional Health Centre were forced to undergo triage in their vehicles.
The province is shuffling staff around to manage outbreaks and keep hospitals afloat and is aware it may not be able to manage on its own.
“We’re not opposed to having the military come,” said Lanette Siragusa, the Chief Nursing Officer for Shared Health, the co-ordinating arm of Manitoba’s health system. “There’s definitely consideration about when is the right time to trigger that if we need it. We still have capacity left to build and so we will take it day by day.”

In Alberta hospitals, meanwhile, November proved relentless, with 19 hospitals collectively hosting 31 active outbreaks as of Sunday. As a result of these continuing outbreaks, 87 patients and 93 health care workers have contracted the virus while 20 people have died, according to Alberta Health Services.
The province is blowing through AHS’s internal projections for ICU patients. Alberta tallied 95 ICU patients as of Nov. 28. By way of context, AHS’s early warning system, which helps hospitals plan for bed space, last Monday calculated that under the worst-case scenario, Alberta would have until Dec. 1 before it had 95 COVID-19 patients in ICUs.
In Calgary, ICUs exceeded capacity, while occupancy clocked in at around 90 per cent in Edmonton on Thursday, according to AHS spokesman Kerry Williamson.
Alberta’s hospitals house 173 general adult ICU beds, according to the provincial health authority, and serve COVID-19 patients as well as others in need of critical care. Facilities in Edmonton recently created an additional 10 beds, with 10 more planned; hospitals in Calgary are slated to add 20 more ICU spots.
However, Deena Hinshaw, Alberta’s Chief Medical Officer of Health, last week announced plans to dramatically increase the expansion effort. Alberta, she said, will earmark 425 ICU beds and more than 2,250 acute-care spots for COVID-19 patients.
Officials have been vague about how they will make this happen, leaving physicians scoffing.
“I don’t know how those beds are going to be made because we don’t have the people to staff them,” said Shazma Mithani, an emergency-department doctor in Edmonton’s Royal Alexandra Hospital and the Stollery Children’s Hospital. “We can’t even staff the beds that we have at baseline.”
Her emergency department has roughly 50 beds and now, with staffing shortages, sometimes 10 of those are closed. “Almost every single one of my shifts, there are bed closures in the department.”
To make room for COVID-19 patients Alberta in early November axed 30 per cent of elective surgeries in Edmonton, which translates to about 600 a week. Calgary is preparing to pull back, too.
Matthew Douma, an emergency nurse in Edmonton and adjunct professor of critical-care medicine at the University of Alberta, says increasing hospital capacity is not just a matter of opening up more beds to make more space.
“The sticking point for us most commonly is having enough regulated health care professionals…. Not every nurse can staff an emergency department or an intensive-care unit.”
Darren Markland, a critical-care physician and nephrologist at the Royal Alexandra, said the severity of illness in new ICU admissions is increasing and doctors are more conservative when considering treatment options in light of the backlog.
“Before, there was elasticity in the system, where you could go for the long shot,” Dr. Markland said. “But we’re not doing that any more.”
GTA hospitals under pressure
In Ontario, the government’s modellers have been warning that some hospitals would have to start cutting back on scheduled surgeries when the number of COVID-19 patients in ICUs exceeded 150. The province crossed that threshold about a week and a half ago.
By that point, William Osler Health System, which oversees three hospitals in the coronavirus hot zone of Brampton and in neighbouring Etobicoke, had already postponed all-day surgeries, including orthopedics, gynecology procedures and general surgery, at its outpatient site, the Peel Memorial Centre for Integrated Health and Wellness.
Kiki Ferrari, the network’s chief operating officer, said she doesn’t expect day surgery at the site to resume until well into January. Staff had to be redeployed to the Brampton Civic and Etobicoke General hospitals, which together were treating 55 confirmed coronavirus patients – 12 of them in the ICU – and another 50 suspected coronavirus patients on Friday. For a few weeks, Osler’s bursting-at-the-seams sites were transferring patients to other hospitals, but they managed to keep their heads, “above water” last week and avoid transfers.

Staffing has been a constant challenge, Ms. Ferrari said. Many front-line workers are ill with the virus or self-isolating because they’ve been exposed to a confirmed case. Some 192 of the network’s staff have tested positive since the start of the pandemic. “They’ve been doing this now for months,” she said. “And we don’t know how long it’s going to continue.”
In northeast Toronto, another hot spot, the three hospitals that make up the Scarborough Health Network have been struggling with one of the highest COVID-19 burdens in the province. In mid-November, SHN began postponing non-elective inpatient surgeries and diverting some new arrivals to neighbouring hospitals. The network has set up a satellite emergency department in a portable near the ambulance bay at its Centenary site to cope with demand without compromising physical distancing.
The second wave has been far tougher on SHN and the community it serves than the first, according to Bert Lauwers, acting chief of staff and executive vice-president of medical and clinical programs. “I can tell you that in the first wave, the maximum number of patients that we actually had in the entire hospital system was about 64. Today, I think we’re at 137,” he said on Wednesday.
Ontario hospitals outside the hardest-hit corners of the Greater Toronto Area are holding the line. By the end of last week, the seven-day average of hospitalizations in Ontario had reached 515, an average of 150 in ICU, according to The Globe’s tally. The total number of COVID-19 patients in hospital was only half as high as the spring peak, but it was up 89 per cent from the end of October.

Hospitals in Quebec, the national pandemic hot spot in the first wave, were holding this week despite nearly two months at a steady plateau in new cases, but a constant slow rise in hospital admissions.
Earlier this fall, hospitals in Quebec City started cancelling elective surgeries and non-urgent appointments after a spike in COVID-19 cases and serious illness. That hot spot subsided, replaced by the more rural Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region where small hospitals with tiny intensive-care units were full this week. The region has started sending serious cases to Quebec City.
In Montreal, where 207 of about 1,000 COVID-19 beds are full, officials still warned that the slowly growing caseload, chronic staff shortages, growing burnout and the normal winter increase in hospital patients still pose a threat. Hospitalizations in the city and province have doubled since Oct. 1.
Quoc Dinh Nguyen, a geriatrician and epidemiologist at the CHUM university hospital network, spotted another worrying sign. The province’s caseload, with about 1,100 new cases, 550 people in hospital and 30 deaths a day, is slowly shifting from the under-30 population toward the 60-plus – who are much more likely to get seriously ill and die from COVID-19.
“We seem to have grown content with 1,000-plus cases a day. It’s still 30 deaths per day, and this will increase with the holidays and winter,” Dr. Nguyen said. “As long as the bigger proportion is in younger adults, the health system can take it. We can keep up with it. If we have 300, 400, 500 cases among the 70-plus, the system won’t take it.”
What the models show
When it comes to forecasting the number of coronavirus-infected patients likely to end up in hospital, demographics are key. As the virus moves from the young to the old, hospital admissions rise.
To make his projections, Dr. von Bergmann, the head of MountainMath, a Vancouver data-analytics and modelling company, examined data from the past few months on COVID-19 cases by age group to see how many were admitted to hospital. Then, he drew on short-term projections of new cases produced by Caroline Colijn, a professor at Simon Fraser University and Canada 150 Research chair in mathematics for evolution, infection and public health. After that, he ran the numbers forward.
Along with his national projection of 4,000 COVID-19 patients in Canadian hospitals by Christmas, Dr. von Bergmann projected that B.C., Alberta, Ontario and Quebec would all continue to see growth in hospitalizations, with Quebec growing the least and Alberta the most. (Only the country’s four most populous provinces publish suitable up-to-date demographic data for hospital modelling, Dr. von Bergmann said. To come up with the national estimate, he drew on Statistics Canada data about coronavirus cases from earlier this fall.)

The models, which have wide bands of uncertainty, show that at the mean of the projections, B.C. can expect to have 350 COVID-19 patients in hospital, or as many as 700 if the worst-case scenario comes to pass, by Christmas, unless the growth rate changes. The seven-day average as of Friday in B.C. was 260 patients in hospital.
In Alberta, the projection at the mean was 900 beds in use by COVID-19 patients by Dec. 25, nearly triple the current seven-day average. The worst-case scenario was a whopping 1,300 COVID-19 patients in hospital. However, it’s too early for the model to reflect the impact of new restrictions that the Alberta government imposed last week, so the numbers could come down, Dr. von Bergmann said.
The model predicted Quebec would see 750 cases in hospital at the mean, with a worst-case scenario of 1,300 by Christmas, double the current seven-day average of 644. Ontario, meanwhile, could see 800 cases in hospital at the mean and 1,100 in the worst case.
The purpose of these models is not to predict the future, Dr. Colijn said. “Our aim is to say this is the path we’re on. If we don’t want to be on this path, we need to change our direction.”

Mike Tomlin appeared to take a dig at the Broncos’ present quarterback woes on Sunday. ESPN press reporter Brooke Pryor asked the Steelers coach if he ‘d position an emergency situation quarterback in a “bubble” to avoid Denver’s dilemma and make sure the group would constantly have one available.
Tomlin’s response was telling.
Asked Mike Tomlin if they would put an emergency QB in a bubble to avoid a Denver situation:
” No, since we exercise all of the needed precautions in regards to the quarterbacks we have.”
— Brooke Pryor (@bepryor) November 29, 2020
MORE: When will Steelers vs. Ravens be played? Week 12 video game held off twice after COVID tests
But here’s the important things: The NFL fined Pittsburgh in early November for breaking the league’s coronavirus protocols. The team and Tomlin were fined $250,000 and $100,000, respectively, after Steelers coaches stopped working to use face coverings at all times during their 28-24 win at Baltimore.
So, Tomlin’s answer is a little hollow– especially after beginning running back and cancer survivor James Conner apparently evaluated positive for COVID-19
Even still, Pittsburgh seems to have at least one quarterback who can take the field when the group deals with Baltimore on Tuesday.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) is here !!!! (smile).

@drlynnmccallum @MarkGaze @Abi_Rimmer I think that having bloods/ECGs/BP close to home is always in patients best interests, if that means secondary care providing some funding for primary care phlebotomy/nurses that is something for us to address. We need to see the system from patients’ perspective

The government on Sunday agreed on a third round of coronavirus payouts to the tune of W4 trillion (US$1=W1,103).
The money will come out of next year’s budget and will be given to self-employed people and small businesses. The government hopes to pay the money out in January or February.
The ruling Minjoo Party has already promised to set aside W1.3 trillion to procure COVID-19 vaccines for 44 million people. If all goes to plan, the budget will increase from the already proposed W556 trillion to around W558 trillion reflecting increased expenses incurred by the epidemic, and the government will issue around W2 trillion worth of bonds to pay for them.
An MP lawmaker told the Chosun Ilbo, “The ruling and opposition parties are negotiating the budget, so a final decision should be made this week.”
But the main opposition People Power Party, which had proposed the third round of relief payouts, is now opposed to issuing bonds. Choo Kyung-ho, a ranking PPP member of the National Assembly’s budget committee, said, “The government’s 2021 budget [W556 trillion] already includes W90 trillion in debt, and trying to increase borrowing without shaving W2 trillion from the super-sized budget is irresponsible.”
The government spent W14.3 trillion to finance the first round of relief payouts and W7.8 trillion for the second. The second round of payouts was entirely financed by bonds, and Korea’s fiscal debt soared to W846.9 trillion, while the ratio of fiscal debt to GDP has reached a record 43.9 percent.

The Christmas holidays, cold weather and shopping season are now rapidly approaching, just as COVID-19 cases continue their uptick, in the United States. That means some people will be shopping in person at local stores, and others will shop online. In both cases, hand sanitizers might be on that list again.
Whether you are shopping for yourself, a loved one or a secret Santa, hand sanitizers could perhaps be in the mix. Not particularly for a gift, but maybe for yourself or your family. Not all hand sanitizers are safe, though, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The FDA has issued a list of 215 hand sanitizers that are not safe for humans, mostly if they are ingested. The FDA began listing toxic hand sanitizers in June, starting with a list of nine—all made and distributed from Mexico. The FDA’s list then grew from nine to 14, then to 100, then 150 and now 215.
What’s wrong with the sanitizers in this list? Most on this list contain methanol (wood alcohol), which can seep through the skin and lead to toxicity in someone’s blood, and can be lethal if ingested orally.
“Consumers who have been exposed to hand sanitizer containing methanol and are experiencing symptoms should seek immediate treatment for potential reversal of toxic effects of methanol poisoning,” the FDA said this summer.
“Although all persons using these products on their hands are at risk for methanol poisoning, young children who accidentally ingest these products and adolescents and adults who drink these products as an alcohol (ethanol) substitute, are most at risk,” the FDA said.
Though hand sanitizer is commonly recommended to help keep your hands clean while in public—or even inside your home—so many of them have been discovered to have methanol, which can be toxic if either ingested or infiltrated wrongly through skin.
For people wanting to continuously stay clean, the FDA and CDC recommend that you wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds—as needed, or several times a day—and to practice good hygiene. Hand sanitizers are recommended while in public, as long as the product contains at least 60 percent ethanol.
