The ‘mu’ COVID-19 variant has reached Dallas County. Here’s 5 things to know – The Dallas Morning News

Another variant of COVID-19 has reached Dallas County, health officials say. The variant, known as B.1.621, or mu, was added to the World Health Organization’s variants of interest list on Aug. 30. A strain is considered a variant of interest if it causes significant community transmission or has genetic features that indicate it may affect factors like disease severity and resistance to vaccines or treatment. It’s a step below variants of concern, which are circulating more widely. While health experts say the new variant is not yet a threat, it’s important to monitor the emerging strain. Here’s what you need to know. Where did the mu variant come from? The mu variant was first detected in Colombia in January, according to the WHO. The variant has since spread to 39 countries, and its pr...

How 50-year friendship imploded for Star Trek icons Shatner, Nimoy – New York Post

Are the core values of “Star Trek” too far out of this world? The hit television and film franchise — which marks the 55th anniversary of the original series premiere with Star Trek Day on Wednesday, Sept. 8 — has long preached the progressive mantras of inclusivity, respect and friendship. But for William Shatner, who played Captain (and later Admiral) James T. Kirk, and the late Leonard Nimoy, as Vulcan science officer Mr. Spock, friendship wasn’t always a stellar success. In a Paramount+ interview to tease remastered versions of the first four franchise films — “Star Trek: The Motion Picture,” “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan,” “Star Trek III: The Search for Spock” and “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home” — Shatner opened up about his and Nimoy’s five-decade bond sinc...

Jimmy Kimmel says unvaccinated people shouldnt get ICU beds in his return to his late-night show – Fox News

Jimmy Kimmel returned to his late-night show after a lengthy summer hiatus on Tuesday where he hit the ground running by mocking the unvaccinated.  Kimmel spent the past few months on vacation while a slew of guest hosts, such as Wanda Sykes, David Spade, Nick Kroll and Julie Bowen, filled in behind his desk. In his first opening monologue since returning, Kimmel lamented the fact that his hopes to see a full audience with no masks were dashed by an increase in coronavirus cases. It didn’t take long before the host began sounding off on those who continue to refuse the vaccination, placing the blame for the ongoing pandemic restrictions squarely on their shoulders.  "It was not a fun Labor Day weekend COVID-wise," Kimmel said noting the increase in cases from this time last year.  JIM...

He Had Chest Pain and Dangerously Low Blood Pressure. What Was Wrong? – The New York Times

Back in the I.C.U., Glick followed the patient closely. Hours passed, then days, and though his blood pressure was better, it remained too low. Why? Glick sent test tube after test tube to the lab, looking for signs of infection, inflammation, autoimmune disorders — everything she could think of. After the man’s near-death experience, Glick knew that many of his lab results would be abnormal. His liver was damaged, his kidneys, his heart. Her job was to identify which abnormalities were a result of his rapid deterioration and which were the cause. Aberrant results streamed in, but only one surprised the resident. The man’s thyroid wasn’t making its essential hormone. The thyroid is like the carburetor in an old internal-combustion engine. It tells the body when to rev up and when to slow ...

Can too little or too much sleep increase risk for Alzheimers? Study supports sweet spot – USA TODAY

Sleep quality has proven to be important for good health, but how long a person sleeps is also important, especially as they get older. New research shows that sleeping too much or too little could have a negative impact on the brain.  A peer reviewed study published by the journal JAMA Neurology found that people who sleep six hours or less every night had elevated levels of beta-amyloid — a protein that accumulates to form amyloid plaques.  Amyloid plaques are the first markers of Alzheimer’s disease, according to Joseph Winer, a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University and head researcher on the study. The study also revealed that adults who sleep longer than nine hours showed increased signs in depressive symptoms, body mass index and cognitive decline. The sweet spot is sleeping an...
