Wait, Canned Salmon Is Good?

There’s a subtext built into the steady glamorization of canned fish over the course of the past five years: Europe does it better. Don’t like anchovies? Try Agostino Recca anchovies from Sicily. Don’t like the watery tuna that constituted all of those soggy childhood sandwiches? Upgrade to Ortiz from the Basque region of Spain. A bit apprehensive about digging into a can of sardines? You just haven’t encountered the French sophistication of Rödel.

City ending partnership with Philly Fighting COVID – WPVI-TV

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The Philadelphia Department of Public Health announced it is no longer working with Philly Fighting COVID to provide testing or vaccines.

Hawaii health officials report two cases of new variant of COVID-19 — one on Oahu and one on Maui – Honolulu Star-Advertiser

The state Health Department today confirmed that its Laboratories Division detected two cases of the SARS-CoV-2 variant L452R in Hawaii. Officials said the coronavirus strain was first detected in Denmark in March 2020 and is now found in more than a dozen U.S. states.
