Given that the medical systems are increasingly overwhelmed and collapsing, what is your top advice to people to avoid needing a trip to the emergency room?
I know my own preventive health and risk mitigation measures have ramped up during the pandemic. I'd love to know what experts recommend -- and what you are doing yourselves.

'I wonder if this is one explanation for the rise in the number of people who don’t work & claim health-related benefits instead: if you’re struggling with a long-term condition & it’s very financially punishing to hang on to your job because you lose most of your wage every time you’re too ill to go in, that might be a push to leave employment altogether'

]The ongoing spread of bird flu in the United States has alarmed experts — not just because of human cases causing severe illness, but also due to troubling new instances of infections in cats.

![Instead, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said the mutations were "likely generated by replication of this virus in the patient with advanced disease," emphasizing that no transmission of the mutated strain to other humans had been identified.
Several experts contacted by AFP cautioned that it was too early to determine whether these changes would make the virus more transmissible or more severe in people.
Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at the University of Saskatchewan in Canada, explained that while the mutation might help the virus enter cells more easily, additional evidence [such as animal testing] would be needed to confirm any effect on transmissibility.
Moreover, similar mutations have occurred in previous critically ill patients without leading to broader outbreaks. "It's good to know we should be looking out for this," Rasmussen said, "but it doesn't actually tell us, [Oh, we're this much closer to a pandemic now]."](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/113/770/318/939/716/868/original/a73dafd158bf2bcd.jpeg "Instead, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said the mutations were \"likely generated by replication of this virus in the patient with advanced disease,\" emphasizing that no transmission of the mutated strain to other humans had been identified.

A sample of the virus found in a critically ill patient in the United States has shown signs of mutating to better suit human airways, although there is no indication it has spread beyond that individual, authorities report.
An analysis posted by the CDC revealed that a small percentage of the virus in the patient's throat carried genetic changes that could increase the virus's ability to bind to certain cell receptors found in the human upper respiratory tract.
Importantly, the agency noted that these changes have not been detected in birds – including in the backyard poultry flock believed to have been the source of the patient's initial infection.

Microplastics found in multiple human organ tissues correlated with lesions
The studies documented particles detected in skin, arteries, veins, thrombi, bone marrow, testes, semen, uterus, and placenta. MNPs were found in the digestive system, from saliva to feces, liver, and gallstones.#human #organism #health #healthcare #microplastic #problem #study
Within the respiratory system, MNPs were everywhere, including lung tissue, with microscopic fibers common in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and sputum.
Positive correlations emerged between particle abundance and specific disorders, such as inflammatory bowel disease, thrombosis, cervical cancer, and uterine fibroids.
