Betty White lived her last few years in LA home – despite wanting to stay in Carmel home – Daily Mail

Betty White lived her last few years in her Los Angeles home over COVID concerns - but wished she could have stayed in the Carmel, California, home she shared with her late husband Allen Ludden. White was living in her five-bedroom, six-bathroom Brentwood home in West Los Angeles when she died on Friday - just weeks before her 100th birthday. Her agent and longtime friend Jeff Witjas told the Associated Press she had been staying at her LA home during the pandemic out of caution. But if she had it her way, the New York Post reports, White would have remained at her longtime marital home in Carmel, which she built with Ludden when they bought the land back in 1978 for just $170,000. Ludden died just three days shy of their 18th wedding anniversary in June 1981, leaving White with three ste...

Taking A COVID Rapid Test? You May Want To Swab Your Nose And Throat. – HuffPost

You may have noticed that more and more people are testing positive for COVID-19 after using a rapid test to swab their throats. The trend took off on Twitter this past week, and unlike most of the medical advice shared across social media, this tactic appears to be scientifically sound. Most of the rapid antigen tests available are currently only authorized for nasal collection, but infectious disease experts aren’t surprised to hear that people who tested negative after a nasal swab nonetheless test positive after swabbing their throats. Though the rapid test kit manufacturers recommend using the tests only as instructed (in other words, only doing a nasal swab), growing anecdotal evidence suggests it might be worth safely swabbing both your throat and nose. And the general consensus...

Miley Cyrus suffers wardrobe malfunction during New Year’s Eve performance – NME

Miley Cyrus rung in the New Year last night (December 31) with an all star concert live from Miami featuring some of music’s biggest artists.

During the NBC broadcast, Cyrus was seen clenching onto her silver halter top. After turning her back to...
