WWE Raw results, recap, grades: Shane McMahons Raw Underground flops on directionless show – CBSSports.com

The talk leading up to Monday's edition of WWE Raw was focused on two things: WWE's announcement that a new faction would debut and rumors of a "shoot fight" aspect being added to the show. One of those things did not truly happen, the other was a spectacular disappointment and Raw hit a creative low point. Raw Underground was introduced as Shane McMahon's show-inside-a-show, featuring "worked shoots" in a faux-"Fight Club" atmosphere that failed to capture the imagination, instead playing out with cheesy, overproduced "fights" in between shots of dancers. By the end of the show, Raw Underground was overrun by The Hurt Business, with MVP, Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin taking out nearly everyone in attendance before McMahon congratulated them and invited them to ...

Regeneron says COVID cocktail prevents, treats virus in animals – Seeking Alpha

Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:REGN) says its COVID-19 antibody drug combination under development both prevented and treated the disease in rhesus macaques and hamsters, sparking hope that it might work for people. The company says its REGN-COV2 cocktail of two monoclonal antibodies was able to "almost completely block establishment of virus infection" in the animal study and minimized infection in a second study in which animals were infected with a much higher level of the virus. The lead researchers also say the animals did not show any signs of increased viral load or worsening of pathology after treatment, an important safety signal that suggests it will not worsen symptoms in humans. Regeneron already has launched late-stage clinical trials in humans to assess t...

Yale professor warns students can only come back to campus with frequent testing, vigilant distancing – Fox News

College students can safely return to school this fall if they are tested for the coronavirus every two to three days, strictly observe social distancing and "adhere to basic prevention practices," the lead author of a new study told "The Story" Monday. "The analysis shows that there is a safe way to reopen college where the key element of the plan is screening all students for the virus at very high frequency every two or three days using a rapid, inexpensive test alongside strict, vigilant adherence to social distancing and other basic prevention practices," Yale School of Public Health professor A. David Paltiel told host Sandra Smith. The study, which used digital simulations to track how the virus would spread among a hypothetical cohort of 5,000 students, was conducted by resear...
