"For ten years Kat was one of our cornerstones, always willing to help in any situation, whether it was a colleague in need or a shift that needed to be covered. She was thoughtful, funny and relentless. And even on the toughest days she was a br...

Researchers uncover more key factors that make people Covid-19 ‘superspreaders’ – RT

Scientists investigating Covid-19 ‘super-spreaders’ – those who transmit SARS-CoV-2 at a rate roughly four times higher than average – have uncovered additional characteristics that afford patients this grim ‘superpower.’ Researchers at Tulane University, Harvard, MIT and Massachusetts General Hospital identified a perfect storm of obesity, age, and more severe Covid-19 infection that can combine and cause people to breathe out far more virus-laden respiratory droplets than normal.  Their findings, which were published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, were based on a review of data from both an observational study of 194 healthy people and an experimental study of primates infected with Covid-19. Older study subjects with a higher body mass i...

The coronavirus is going to stick around forever. Get ready for the new normal. – Business Insider

The spread of coronavirus variants means COVID-19 will likely be around forever. People might require regular booster shots to fight new variants of the virus. But experts say it's impossible to vaccinate everyone yearly, so the virus will continue to circulate. Visit the Business section of Insider for more stories. As the pandemic approaches its second year, the coronavirus has morphed into a tougher foe. Several mutations that scientists have identified in rapidly spreading variants are particularly worrisome. They raise concerns that these strains will be more contagious or be able to at least partly evade protection provided by vaccines and by prior infections. Let's be clear: No one knows how the next phase of the pandemic will play out. Is a new strain ...

Review: CBSs Clarice is a far cry from the brilliance of The Silence of the Lambs – USA TODAY

"Hannibal" got here first, and did it better.  CBS' new "The Silence of the Lambs" sequel "Clarice" (premiering Thursday, 10 EST/PST, ★★ out of four) joins a long line of attempts to adapt the Thomas Harris novels about a cannibal and a young FBI agent. But while some adaptations, like NBC's 2013-15 "Hannibal" and the celebrated 1991 Jonathan Demme film, are stunning works that elevate the grisly subject matter, "Clarice" simply doesn't match the potential of the characters and stories. "Clarice," which turns the heroine of "Lambs" into the lead of a procedural cop show, has all the depravity of the film with none of the artistry. Without the trappings of Hannibal and friends, there might be a good show here about the FBI in the 1990s. But instead, "Clarice" feels like a cheap knockoff th...

Game of Thrones star Esme Bianco claims Marilyn Manson cut her torso with a knife, chased her with axe – Fox News

Esme Bianco is the latest woman to come forward with allegations of abuse against rocker Marilyn Manson. The "Game of Thrones" actress spoke up about her past experiences with Manson in an interview for The Cut. She reflected on idolizing Manson during her teenage years as a fan, to first meeting him in 2005 while he was still married to Dita Von Teese. The two remained friends until 2009, when Manson cast Bianco in his music video for "I Want to Kill You Like They Do in Movies." Bianco said Manson warned her that she'd "have to pretend to like being manhandled" by him for the video, but the actress claimed his alleged violent behavior wasn't just a role. She now refers to him as a "monster" and claimed his violent acts left her with PTSD and physical scars. Bianco's statements come n...
