Arizona man went a month without knowing he had the plague – Fox News

A man in Arizona went nearly a month without knowing he had contracted the plague, which can be deadly if not treated promptly, according to a new report. The man recovered, but his case underscores the need to identify infections with serious and potentially contagious pathogens, such as Yersinia pestis — the bacterium that causes plague — in a timely manner, according to the report, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The 67-year-old man first went to the emergency room on June 18, 2020, with symptoms of dehydration, nausea and weakness, according to the case report, which was published Thursday (Aug. 5) in the CDC journal Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. Doctors treated him with IV fluids and released him shortly thereafter. But he came back the next day...

Vaccine demand jumps in states pummeled by Delta variant – POLITICO

But whether the recent spike in demand will meaningfully boost vaccination rates, which are still below 50 percent in more than a dozen states, remains to be seen. The newfound enthusiasm for the shots may wane as quickly as it started, depending on how deep the fear of Delta runs and how long the current surges last. Other factors in play include the increasing willingness of employers to issue vaccine mandates and the likelihood that the Food and Drug Administration will issue a full approval of at least one shot — Pfizer’s — in the coming weeks. Karen Landers, a state health officer in Alabama, doesn’t think hard-hit states are likely to see a reprieve any time soon. The rush for vaccines will help over the long term, but it can take up to six weeks after the initial shot for people ...

Margot Robbie has profanity-laced warning for James Gunn about Harley Quinn’s fate in ‘The Suicide Squad’ (spoilers) – Yahoo Entertainment

Warning: The Suicide Squad spoilers above and ahead In October, James Gunn delighted fans of suspense, gore and pure anarchy when he boasted that Warner Bros. had given him “carte blanche” to kill off any character he wanted to in The Suicide Squad, his R-rated superhero actioner and entry into the DCEU. With an ensemble cast so big they put 20 names on a poster to introduce them, that potentially spelled A LOT of deaths — and Gunn fully delivers on that promise in the film. That’s not to say he didn’t labor over who lived and who died. “I did change my mind,” he tells Yahoo Entertainment during a virtual press day for the film (watch above). “There were some people in my treatment that died that ended up not dying. There are some people that didn’t die, that end up dying. As I’m making...
