COVID-19 cases surge as we head into cold and flu season
SUMMARY: As cold and flu season overlaps with a COVID-19 surge, experts are concerned about the potential rise in long COVID cases. Defined by the CDC as symptoms lasting three months or longer, long COVID affects people of all ages, even those with mild infections. Symptoms can vary widely, impacting multiple organ systems, with common reports including brain fog, dizziness, and fatigue. Notably, around 6 million children may be living with long COVID, experiencing issues like anxiety. Vaccination is crucial for mitigating long COVID risks, and updated vaccines are now available, best taken three months after the last infection.

Lawsuit says migrants endure isolation and intimidation at US’ Guantanamo detention center
SUMMARY: Immigration and civil rights advocates are expressing renewed concerns over the treatment of immigrants detained at Guantanamo Bay. A recent lawsuit filed on behalf of two Nicaraguans alleges that detainees face extreme isolation and limited access to legal counsel, creating a climate of “fear and intimidation.” This environment, described as more restrictive than other facilities, undermines their constitutional rights. Attorneys report that legal communications are not confidential, as detainees are restrained during calls. Testimonies reveal fears of monitoring and reprisals. Advocates are seeking judicial intervention for the rights of future immigrant detainees at Guantanamo amid increased deportations.
