UK patient had COVID-19 for 505 days straight, study shows – The Associated Press

A U.K. patient with a severely weakened immune system had COVID-19 for almost a year and a half, scientists reported, underscoring the importance of protecting vulnerable people from the coronavirus. There’s no way to know for sure whether it was the longest-lasting COVID-19 infection because not everyone gets tested, especially on a regular basis like this case. But at 505 days, “it certainly seems to be the longest reported infection,” said Dr. Luke Blagdon Snell, an infectious disease expert at the Guy’s & St. Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust. Snell’s team plans to present several “persistent” COVID-19 cases at an infectious diseases meeting in Portugal this weekend. Their study investigated which mutations arise — and whether variants evolve — in people with super long infections. It...

Prince Charles is at the end of his tether with son Harry, royal family expert says – New York Post

Prince Charles is at the end of his rope with Prince Harry and was reluctant to meet with his estranged son in a secret meeting last week, a royal family expert claimed. Charles had a brief private meeting with Harry and wife Meghan Markle at Windsor Castle, as the California transplants stopped by the UK on their way to the Hague for the Invictus Games. “Charles was not particularly happy about doing it as far as I was aware,” author and journalist Robert Jobson said during an appearance on GB News in the UK on Thursday. “They only agreed to do the meeting if nothing was said about him whatsoever on American TV.” And Harry, who has been on the outs with his dad since he left his royal duties two years ago, showed up to the meeting late, Jobson told GB host Dan...

Greys Anatomy: Ellen Pompeo, Katherine Heigl –Work Hours Complaint – TVLine

File this under “It’s never too late to say something nice”: Ellen Pompeo is commending her former Grey’s Anatomy co-star, Katherine Heigl, for speaking up about working conditions in the early-ish days of their ABC medical drama. In a conversation with another co-star, Kate Walsh, on the April 20 episode of her Tell Me With Ellen Pompeo podcast, Pompeo recalled when Heigl went on a talk show and commented publicly about the “insane hours we were working.” Pompeo continued: “Had she said that today, she’d be a complete hero.” She added that Heigl was “ahead of her time” and was deemed “ungrateful” for expressing the sentiment, “when the truth is, she’s 100 percent honest and it’s absolutely correct what she said, and she was f–king ballsy for saying it. And she was telling the tru...

Johnny Depp questioned about past texts during cross examination in Amber Heard defamation case – CNN

CNN  —  Johnny Depp has concluded his third day of testimony in a Fairfax, Virginia court in his defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard. Under cross-examination by Heard’s lawyer Ben Rottenborn on Thursday morning, evidence of text messages from Depp to some of his friends, including Marilyn Manson and actor Paul Bettany, were introduced that referenced his drug use during the time he was in a relationship with Heard. Other messages included references of violence toward Heard. Before some exchanges were read in court, Depp said he “wasn’t proud of any of the language” that he used in the text messages. Recordings of Depp threatening to self harm were al...

Intermittent Fasting Isnt the Answer – Lifehacker

Photo: rangizzz (Shutterstock) Intermittent fasting was once hailed as a powerful strategy for weight loss, but the latest science shows it’s not exactly a miracle solution after all. First: Intermittent fasting is the process of scheduling all of your eating for the day within a narrow time window, typically 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Other types of intermittent fasting include the “5:2” method, in which a person eats normally for five days a week and fasts on the other two. The idea is that by restricting eating to designated times, it will decrease one’s caloric intake, which will ultimately lead to weight loss. It’s understandable why so many would believe intermittent fasting could be the key to weight loss. After all, a 2017 statement from the American Heart Association vouched for the pr...
