A MALE DIED IN SHOOTING IN MEMPHIS

"We have seen individuals screaming and yelling and all going to come out." Folks as well as cops across Maury Road were after a man shot to death at 9:45 p.m. outside a townhouse tower. Monday, in the Maury Street 800 section.

Neighbors in the Vollintine Evergreen Historic District informed a local new channel as they were there as they saw rescuer taking man who was not breathing well.

"We started trying to resuscitate him throughout the emergency care, but he was fired in such proximity that he expired in the moment he received help."

Most of the community thought narcotics linked to the attack. Police has said that the victim wasn't living around and arguing with either a person as someone walked by and began firing.

"The participants have dispersed that they have taken off running and this is typically a peaceful area. Anything between once in a while but late nights it was really sad. "Neighbours reported police took multiple men here into arrest in a suspected car a couple weeks ago.

Authorities had no records of any previous shootings, and they have not said that what the incident was all about.

There's an active investigation.

Memphis code enforcement officers say they lack training, resources for corona-virus pandemic

The rundown of trivial organizations that must close could keep on developing, Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland said for the current week, however a few officials who are bridging the city and closing the organizations down said they are frightened for their lives.

Code requirement officials said they haven't been prepared for the worldwide corona-virus pandemic or given enough assets to remain safe.

They're trusting the City of Memphis will make changes to give more secure conditions.

"They're not setting us up appropriately, and they're fundamentally sending us to our demises," one code implementation official told WREG.

A gathering of code Memphis Code Enforcement officials claims they're working in dread of contracting COVID-19.

Code requirement officials who talked with WREG said laborers got a one-hour instructional class for these phenomenal occasions, and various solicitations for additional covers have been denied.

"Presently their reason is they can't think that its, despite the fact that we informed them concerning along these lines before provisions went short," one official said.

The City of Memphis denied WREG's solicitation to talk with Public Works Director Robert Knecht, rather giving an explanation that said "The city is following all prescribed rules for staff PPE necessities," and "supplies are being renewed at the earliest opportunity."

The Shelby County Health Department demanded they are helping out code requirement as typical.

"We have verifiable cooperated to address issues this way," Shelby County Health Department Director Alisa Haushalter said. "So we'll keep on cooperating and decide for every infraction who's ideal to mediate, regardless of whether it's codes or well being."

Laborers reacted to that by saying these occasions call for new rules.

"It's hard to draw in with somebody from six feet away," one official said. "More often than not, on the off chance that they're extremely furious, they're going to get somewhat nearer than six feet."

Regardless of whether code requirement gets all the more preparing and gear or another office helps share the remaining task at hand, officials seeking after a change.

"There should be greater gear," an official said. "There most likely should be a superior perspective to deal with this—to protect us."

WREG will refresh this story on the off chance that we are permitted a meeting with the City of Memphis or gain proficiency with any new data.

Cuomo is racing to expand New York’s hospital capacity and crying out for yet even more federal resources and is actually quietly trying to slash Medicaid funding in the state, enraging doctors and nurses, and elected officials of his own party. The same Cuomo who holds press briefings at a major New York City convention center, and now the home of a temporary 1,000-bed hospital, presided over a decade of hospital closures and consolidations, prioritizing cost savings over keeping popular health care institutions open.

It’s the same Democratic governor—every liberal pundit’s tried-and-true Trump antidote—who is doing damage to his state’s health care system at the worst possible moment, in the eyes of the critics who follow him most closely.



Video showing officer punching 14-year-old boy under the scanner, the investigation started.

A police officer from Northern California is under investigation after a video has surfaced in which he was captured punching a 14-year-old black boy. He had pinned the boy to the ground. The video was posted by the family and friends of the boy on Twitter. It showed an officer from Rancho Cordova that is a city in the east of Sacramento holding him in the dirt at the point with his hand on his neck and striking him several times in the chest. The boy was cited for possession of a tobacco product, according to the police, and released to his parents. A person who identified themselves on Twitter as the boy’s sister said it was a Swisher Sweet, a type of cigar.

The rural-urban is divided into California over COVID-19 infection rates.

Governor Gavin Newsom is signaling every now, and then that economy in California will begin to reopen soon but slowly. He compared it to sliding a dimmer switch incrementally on. He said that the state is now a single geography. The assault COVID-19 had on the state has hit different parts at different levels.

A Sacramento Bee review of the infection along with the death rates in 58 counties of California, showed that there is a vast difference in the depth of the crisis, especially between lightly-hit rural and harder-hit urban spots. Notably, the infection and death rates in the state as a whole, as measured against the state population, show that California, as of this week, has done much better than the nation.

California scaled up 1st-In-US Electric Truck Sale Proposal.

The regulators of California strengthened a proposed first-in-the-nation rule that would force automakers to sell more electric delivery vans and work trucks. The state has the country’s worst air quality. The updated government proposed by the California Air Resources Board has asked the automakers to sell a certain percentage of zero-emission trucks per year.

By 2035, the board estimates at least 20% of these trucks on the road would be electric. Paul Cort, an attorney for Earthjustice’s Right to the Zero campaign, said in his statement that this would be transformative. At some point in the future, these makers are going to realize that it does not make sense to make zero-emission trucks and combustion trucks to serve the same market.

Ruminations on current events driving the world.

Recent suggestions that the US national elections be postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic seem to be lacking education on the US Constitution. The Congress has the only authority to do this and with a polarized Congress this will not happen. Secondly the Constitution did provide for the scenario of a delayed election, but specifically stipulates that the current administration's term ends on January 20 and cannot be extended due to a delayed election. In the event of a delayed election the Speaker of the House of Representatives assumes the Presidency in a temporary role until such time as a proper election is held. Either the legal advisors to the Administration are woefully lacking on their education of the Constitution or they do not think that any of the citizenry are sufficiently well versed in the Constitution to call out their veiled attempt at totalitarian rule. Either way they fail badly.

The current Administration would do better to develop a plan to deal with the deteriorating economy of the US due to the pandemic. They lack the understanding that the economy is driven by the pandemic and cannot be restored without controlling the pandemic. The recent loss in GDP of 33% is egregious not just for its magnitude as a pandemic and subsequent business stoppage can easily cause such a downturn. but it is comparison to the other impacted countries in the community of industrialized nations that is most unsetling. The US has lost 33%GDP, the EU has lost 1% GDP and China is still gaining GDP as are other Asian nations. They are replacing the US in the Global Economy. What does this mean for the US? It means that it is no longer dominant on the global stage. It now has to compete for influence and commerce on the world stage from a position lagging behind much of the rest of the industrialized world. The thing that global pandemics do is they change world. The leaders become followers or do not survive and the followers become leaders demonstrating a new way to live.

It seems that a general education on the basic biology of viruses is in order because the US obviously has about 40% of its population that did not pay attention in high school biology. Viruses require a host to multiply and proliferate. The host can be most any living organism and in the case of Covid-19 the primary host is the human species. This means that the protein spikes on the virus are most well adapted to latch on to human cells. This virus is of microscopic scale and requires an imaging electron microscope in order to see it. Billions of virus can occupy the size of the head of a pin. The virus proliferation is very important because the more the virus multiplies and generates more total virus is in the country and the world and the greater the difficulty in quelling virus blooms like we are now seeing. This also brings us closer to the virus becoming endemic. When the virus becomes endemic it is here to stay indefinitely. This means that around the world we would be destined to endure cyclical blooms like we are currently encountering in the US for the indefinite future. This will require a shut down of almost all public activity each time, for two to three months, to gain control of the virus spread. As long as there is Covid-19 virus somewhere in the world this is a likely scenario. As for a vaccine, modern medicine has never been successful at building a vaccine for a corona virus. The common cold is a corona virus. How many of us have had a common cold? Many people get them multiple times per year. If the antigen reaction is similar then a vaccine is likely to only be effective for a very short time. Also consider that even if an effective vaccine is generated, modern medicine has only been able to eradicate one virus and that is Small Pox. In all of it efforts and with very effective vaccines humanity has not been able to eradicate any other virus. So this leave us with the need to adapt and change our behavior to live with Covid-19 among us. We know from example that this can be done as most of Europe, Asia, the Pacific Rim and may African countries have done so. It will require a collective effort to wear respiratory coverings (masks), physical distance, (keep more than 6 feet between people), limit interactivity to only necessity, change the work environment to accommodate physical distancing and air handling sanitation and convert to remote and teleworking as much as possible. This needs to be a lifestyle change and not seen as a temporary action. This will have to be endured for years to deal with this virus. If we do this we can adapt to recover an economic platform that will benefit the populace and allow for a good standard of living. It will not be the same as we had become accustomed to but will be a survivable scheme for all. If we do not change the behavior of the populace then we are destined to continue this cycle of opening activity and then having to shut down weeks later because of a raging virus bloom and each time because we continue to pile up the amount of virus generated which grows with each bloom then the cycle becomes more wide spread with greater severity. This will continue to occur until the other 96% of the world which is being affected by the behavior of the US populace, since the virus anywhere is the virus everywhere, reaches the end of its patience with the childish actions of the US populace. I do not see this taking very long. We already see the early actions being taken where US occupants are only allowed to travel to 12 countries currently, none of which are major trading partners. US goods are already becoming circumspect in Europe, Asia and the Pacific rim. Even though current data does not indicate that virus transmission from surfaces is great, simply the perception that goods could be tainted is causing purchase hesitation by trading partners. Also trading partners are very hesitant to allow vessels and aircraft carrying freight to access their ports and airports. The US is already the pariah of the world. If the behavior does not change now the world's attitude towards the US will become pervasive and reversing this will take a generation or more.

Two missing children’s mother in custody, police are still searching

West-Nile-Virus-carrying mosquitoes detected in Tulsa

Authorities of the Tulsa Health Department (THD) confirmed the presence of West Nile Virus (WNV) in the mosquito samples collected from a trap in Tulsa County. As per WHO and the American Mosquito Control Association, there is no evidence that mosquitoes can transmit COVID-19, a virus that affects the respiratory system and spreads maximally via droplets when an infected person sneezes, coughs or talks. Mosquitoes can transmit viruses like WNV, and hence, people are recommended to use repellents containing DEET.

THD functions on an efficient budget to control mosquito populations by nationally-recognized mosquito surveillance programs which also helps to affirm the presence of mosquito-borne illnesses in the community. The target of the surveillance is to identify the presence of mosquitoes, to know its abundance, species, make a hazard appraisal, and give a premise to control. Control strategies incorporate larviciding and spraying when required. The mosquito surveillance has implemented new testing guidelines and is working to trap potential WNV positive mosquitoes as soon as possible. Every year since 2003, human cases of WNV disease are observed in Tulsa County. The virus infects human via mosquito bites, and the symptoms of this disease include headache, sudden onset of fever, muscle weakness and dizziness. Precautions to be taken are:

• Do not dump waste materials in stagnant water and drain out such items, so that mosquitoes do not get a place to breed.
• Use DEET containing, or CDC approved mosquito repellents.
• Ensure gutters are not clogged.
• Encourage people around you to dump and drain as well as use repellents.
