Sexually transmitted infections rising in Long Beach – KABC-TV

LONG BEACH, Calif. (KABC) -- In two weeks, Long Beach will have an AIDS walk on Nov. 14.

Kristen Stewart Reveals Engagement to Screenwriter Dylan Meyer – Hollywood Reporter

Kristen Stewart has announced her engagement to screenwriter Dylan Meyer. On Tuesday’s episode of SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show, the Spencer star said: “We’re marrying, we’re totally gonna do it.” The 31-year-old actor said previously that she’d met Meyer on the set of a movie but lost touch until they reconnected at a mutual friend’s birthday party six years later, in the summer of 2019. They’ve been spotted together — occasionally sporting rings that generated engagement rumors in July of this year — ever since. “I wanted to be proposed to, so I think I very distinctly carved out what I wanted and she nailed it. It was very cute. She did very well,” Stewart told Stern. According to NBC News, Stewart’s hopes for the wedding include a relaxed, intimate ...

Photo: Martin Bureau/AFP (Getty Images) Researchers in the UK and affiliated with the World Health Organization are sounding the alarm over a common bacteria that can seriously harm pregnant people and their babies. In a new report released this week, the group estimates that infections caused by group B streptococcus were linked to 46,000 stillbirths, 91,000 newborn deaths, and over a half-million premature births worldwide last year. The numbers are dire enough that the WHO and partners are calling for a maternal vaccine to prevent the bacterial disease. Group B streptococcus, or Group B strep, are round bacteria that typically cluster together into single-line chains.
