Harry and Meghan visit Queen Elizabeth II on way to Invictus Games – CNN

Prince Harry had said in March that he hoped to visit his 95-year-old grandmother soon. Harry did not attend last month's memorial service for his late grandfather, Prince Philip. Harry opted to remain in California for the service, which was held at Westminster Abbey on March 29. A reason wasn't given for his no-show. The memorial marked the Queen's first public appearance in five months. Harry and Meghan's visit comes as the Queen revealed that she was left "very tired and exhausted" following her recent bout of Covid-19. The monarch tested positive for the virus in February.

We Might Be Looking At COVID “Seasons” For Years To Come – BuzzFeed News

Every year, the flu kills tens of thousands of mostly older people, but also some children and other vulnerable individuals. A worse future for the pandemic might see the coronavirus ceaselessly bubbling along and causing similar deaths in a kind of permanent COVID season. “We don’t like to talk about it, but we have lots of everyday illnesses that still kill people,” Fauci said. “RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) kills children as well as the elderly.” That may be the future of a “settle in” strategy for dealing with the pandemic like we endure colds and flus, Fauci added, which he doesn’t think is a good idea. “People will still get seriously ill,” he said. “There is no reason to think this is going to become the cold,” said Worobey, the viral evolution expert. “From what ...

U.S., U.K. investigating unusual cases of hepatitis in young children – STAT

Public health officials in the United States and the United Kingdom are investigating a number of unusual cases of serious hepatitis in young children, the cause or causes of which are currently unknown. Evidence from the U.K. and from Alabama — where nine cases have been recorded since last fall — points to the possible involvement of an adenovirus. Adenoviruses generally attack the respiratory tract, causing cold-like illnesses. But they have been linked to bladder inflammation and infection, and occasionally to hepatitis, though rarely in children who are not immunocompromised. In a statement issued late Thursday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said it is working with Alabama on its investigation into the cases, and is working with other state health departments to see ...
