A TikTok trend of swinging your arm around like a windmill to stop soreness after vaccine is nonsense, experts say – Yahoo News

A TikTok "hack" involving swinging an arm around to prevent soreness from COVID-19 shots is probably useless, experts say. The dance trend has swept across the app, with numerous users filming themselves "windmilling" their arms soon after being vaccinated, often to Vinny West's "Too Player." Many users jokingly post that they did it "because TikTok told me to," along with their videos. Variations on "just got my COVID-19 shot ... you know what that means," is another common comment. But the celebratory move "won't do anything" to alleviate the soreness, according to Beate Kampmann, the director of the Vaccine Centre at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. ...

Joni Mitchells ex talks heartache as her masterpiece Blue turns 50 – New York Post

With the confessional honesty that Joni Mitchell displayed on her classic “Blue” album — which was released 50 years ago on June 22, 1971 — perhaps a more apt title would have been “True.” “A lot of people think she bares her soul, but I think she scrapes her soul,” said Lori Majewski, co-host of “Feedback” on SiriusXM’s Volume channel. “The confessional nature of ‘Blue’ is such that I think Joni Mitchell herself actually likened it to Dylan plugging in, to Dylan going electric. It was such a groundbreaking thing to be this confessional.” Indeed, Mitchell’s fourth studio LP — which Rolling Stone ranked at No. 3 on last year’s list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time — upped the gut-spilling ante for both female and male singer-songwriters. “It made a lot o...

CDC studies point to reasons behind vaccination slowdown; Moderna to add production lines: Latest COVID-19 updates – USA TODAY

Young Americans are less likely to get vaccinated against COVID-19 than their elders, a new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study showed. By May 22, 2021, 57.0% of adults had received at least one vaccine dose, the study said. But coverage was highest among those 65 and older (80%) while it was lowest among those 18-29 years old (38.3%).  Nearly 25% of the latter age group reported that they probably or definitely would not get vaccinated, while 23% were unsure. Their biggest questions: concerns about vaccine safety and effectiveness, a second study said. Adults aged 18–39 years with lower incomes, lower educational attainment, without health insurance, who were non-Hispanic Black adults who lived in suburbs areas had the lowest reported vaccination coverage and intent to get v...

Watch Lorde Discuss Solar Power, Album Cover, Touring on Colbert – Pitchfork

Lorde sat down for an interview on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert tonight. She discussed her new album Solar Power, which is out August 20, and promised she would soon return to the show for a live performance. Watch the interview below. Colbert mentioned that he was not allowed to show the album’s artwork and asked her how the artwork came about. “My friend just took it,” she said. “It was just me jumping over a friend on the beach. … It’s a little hardcore, but it was so joyful to me. It felt innocent and playful and a little bit feral.” Colbert replied: “If I had a butt like that, I’d be jumping over somebody too.” Colbert also mentioned her tour and asked her if she was looking forward to being in front of audiences again. “I’m really excited, yeah,” she said. “It sort of doesn’t ...
