Pueblo Public Health mistakenly administered an empty syringe to someone instead of a COVID-19 vaccine – KKTV

PUEBLO, Colo. (KKTV) - The Pueblo Department of Public Health and Environment is owning up to a mistake after a nurse accidentally administered an empty syringe to a Colorado resident. As of Thursday, Pueblo has administered more than 3,500 vaccines to people 70 and older, but one of the people lucky enough to get a shot in the arm had to get a second shot soon after because of the error. The following statement from Pueblo’s Public Health Director Randy Evetts was sent out Thursday afternoon: “Safety is the utmost concern for Pueblo [Department] of Public Health and Environment. We confirm that a contract nurse administered an empty syringe to an older Coloradoan, mistakenly thinking it was filled with a vaccine. The syringe was new, and there was no risk of it being used, as used syr...

US Scientist With Close Ties To Wuhan Lab Discussed Manipulating Bat-Based Coronaviruses Just Weeks Before Outbreak – Daily Caller

Dr. Peter Daszak described how easy it was to manipulate bat-based coronaviruses in an interview filmed just weeks before the COVID-19 outbreak in Wuhan. Daszak has close ties to the Wuhan Institute of Virology and reportedly pushed back against a National Institute of Health request that he arrange an outside inspection of the lab. Daszak orchestrated a statement at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic that condemned “conspiracy theories” that the virus did not have a natural origin. Daszak now serves on a World Health Organization panel currently investigating the origins of the pandemic on the ground in China. A U.S. doctor who is part of the World Health Organization team investigating the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic discussed his work manipulating bat-based coronaviruses in labs...

‘No Time To Die’ Eyes Second Weekend In October For Theatrical Release – Deadline

As we told you earlier, MGM was moving 007 film No Time to Die to the fall and away from Easter weekend, April 2-4. Right now the Cary Joji Fukunaga-directed feature, which reps Daniel Craig’s swan song as Mr. Bond, is set to fire up on Oct. 8. MGM just made the news official. No Time to Die plops itself on a new weekend against…Sony/Marvel’s Morbius. Indeed, a game of chicken. Universal has overseas on 007, but they refuse to go hunger over the Easter weekend. Remember, they released Trolls World Tour on PVOD last year over that time and in whatever drive-ins were open. Universal will now open their Bob Odenkirk movie Nobody on April 2 instead of Feb. 26. Sony still has Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway scheduled over Easter weekend, but that might not stick there. MGM’s anim...

Bond, Uncharted and Ghostbusters movies all just got delayed – The Verge

Hollywood has decided tonight’s the night to shove back their slate of films — including James Bond’s latest outing No Time To Die, the Uncharted movie, and Ghostbusters: Afterlife. No Time to Die now has a release date of October 8th, Ghostbusters will be pushed back five months to November 11th, and Uncharted now won’t arrive until 2022, Exhibitor Relations reports. Bond was the big film whose third delay was enough to force theater chains Regal and Cineworld to close all their US and UK locations. It was originally slated for April 2020, then got pushed back to November 2020 and now to April 2021. If you’re counting, this news marks the fourth delay. Instead of releasing the movie on streaming, as other studios have been doing, MGM seems adamant on premiering the movie in theater...

South Africa coronavirus variant may evade vaccines – Business Insider – Business Insider

COVID-19 vaccines may be less effective against a more infectious version of the coronavirus first found in South Africa. New research shows the mutated strain can evade the antibodies developed in response to vaccination or infection with the original version of the coronavirus. But Pfizer has said it could update its shots to combat new variants in just six weeks.  Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories. At first, there was little evidence to suggest that COVID-19 vaccines wouldn't work against the mutated, more infectious versions of the virus that have emerged in the last few months. But preliminary research published this week suggests that a coronavirus variant detected in South Africa in December can partially evade the defenses vaccines build...

Fat but fit is a myth when it comes to heart health, new study shows – CNN

Previous studies had suggested that being physically fit could mitigate the negative effects of being overweight on heart health, but this is not the case, according to a new study in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, a journal of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), published Thursday. "One cannot be 'fat but healthy.' This was the first nationwide analysis to show that being regularly active is not likely to eliminate the detrimental health effects of excess body fat," said study author Alejandro Lucia, a professor of exercise physiology at the European University of Madrid. "Our findings refute the notion that a physically active lifestyle can completely negate the deleterious effects of overweight and obesity." Previous research provided some evidence that people who ...
