Mark Ronsons Got Folklore Jokes and Taylor Swift Is All For It – Billboard

Taylor Swift took to social media on Wednesday (July 29) to react to a Folklore joke posted by none other than Mark Ronson. The clip shared by the famed producer shows the two stars deep in conversation at the 2016 Grammys -- the year Swift took home her most recent album of the year win for 1989. "Taylor actually telling me about #folklore back in 2016. On tape. Crazy," Ronson jokingly captioned the video, which is dubbed over with fake dialogue of Swift revealing she was working on "that 'Bloodbuzz Ohio' s--t" with The National's Aaron Dessner. Naturally, the viral tweet caught the eye of Swift herself, who quickly proved she was in on the joke. "Thank you for keeping the secret til now," she replied, retweeting Ronson's doctored video with several laugh-crying and prayer hand...

Children are major carriers of Coronavirus, say researchers – Boing Boing

Children are major carriers of Coronavirus, say researchers / Boing Boing Kids under the age of 5 who show symptoms of COVID-19 have higher concentrations of the virus than any other age group, according to a study published today in the JAMA Pediatrics journal. From Fortune: "One of the things that’s come up in the whole school reopening discussion, is: since kids are less sick, is it because they have less of the virus?," said Taylor Heald-Sargent, the lead author and a pediatric infectious diseases specialist at Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, and assistant professor of pediatrics at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine. "And our data does not ...

911 dispatchers in Texas city stop asking callers about coronavirus symptoms, concerning firefighters – Fox News

Dispatchers in Houston, Texas, have stopped asking 911 callers if they have coronavirus symptoms — a move that has local firefighters concerned. According to multiple reports, 911 callers will no longer be asked if they or members of their household are showing signs of COVID-19, which had been an ongoing procedure since the novel coronavirus pandemic started. The dispatchers would then inform firefighters, according to the reports. DOGS ABLE TO SNIFF CORONAVIRUS IN HUMAN SALIVA, GERMAN STUDY FINDS “Having less information about COVID-19 infections is dangerous for firefighters, paramedics, and the public. Why the city is refusing to track the information is a mystery to us," Patrick “Marty” Lancton, president of the Houston Professional Fire Fighters Association, told Fox News in an...

Where in California Are People Getting Coronavirus? – The New York Times

First, I wanted to ask what you thought about Gov. Gavin Newsom’s new focus on the Central Valley. If you look at transmission rates in the Central Valley, they’re super high. One of the biggest challenges, especially among our front-line workers is that they need both personal resources to be able to figure out how to effectively isolate and to make sure their wages are protected if they need to take time off work. But also, there needs to be investment in the sectors that employ these low-wage workers to make sure that this is possible. And we need additional investments, including making sure there’s testing availability when departments of public health are really hard hit because of the higher burden of transmission. It’s a little late, frankly, which is the unfortunate thing. But ...
