Living with COVID: Experts divided on UK plan as cases soar

LONDON (AP) — For many in the U.K., the pandemic may as well be over. Mask requirements have been dropped. Free mass testing is a thing of the past. And for the first time since spring 2020, people can go abroad for holidays without ordering tests or filling out lengthy forms.

Keep Wearing Masks, Says Canada’s Dr. Tam

COVID-19: Canada’s chief public health officer Dr. Theresa Tam said Friday that Canadians should continue to wear a mask or face covering despite provinces across the country relaxing mask mandates, adding that a resurgence in COVID-19 cases is inevitable as provinces lift restrictions.

The group has published a paper describing their work on the open-access site PLOS ONE. Prior research has suggested that there is a connection between gut microbiome health and mental health—communication between the gut and the central nervous system has been labeled the gut-brain axis. And some studies have...

REPORT: Omicron May Also Have Been Lab-Engineered

(Headline USA) Scientists who have been studying the original COVID-19 and its variants argued that its most recent strain, the omicron variant, was likely developed in a lab as well. The omicron variant was much more transmissible than the original coronavirus and the delta variant, though its symptoms tended to be much less severe. However, some experts have said that the genetic differences between omicron and the other variants were so noticeable that it could...

Brain Changes After COVID-19

Catching The Flu And COVID-19 At The Same Time Doubles Your Risk Of Dying

FORTUNE – Catching both COVID-19 and the flu at the same time more than doubles the risk of death, a new study published by the Lancet has found. The study looked at more than 200 patients infected with both SARS-CoV-2—the virus that causes COVID-19—and the influenza virus. It found patients with co-infection were four times more likely to require ventilation and 2.4 times more likely to die than if they only had COVID-19. The study's researchers advised...

Metformin Use Before Conception Linked To Major Birth Defects
