MOTORES had the opportunity to travel to Bogotá, Colombia, to learn more about the new electrical technology of the Japanese brand. With the launch of the new Nissan X-Trail e-Power, the Japanese brand takes the driving experience to a new level with Nissan's exclusive e-Power technology, an electric motor that provides a great driving experience. . Power, emotion, performance and an immediate response when accelerating and braking are the characteristics that define the driving experience of this vehicle that the Nissan Importers Business Unit (NIBU), the business unit of the brand in charge of providing service to 34 markets in the Americas. Latina, brings to the region, first to Colombia and then to Ecuador, one of the brand's most iconic SUVs. Ecuadorian José Román, executive director of Nissan Mexico and Nissan Latin America, explains that the advantage of e-Power technology is the price at which customers can purchase the vehicles. “Conventional electric cars are normally very expensive, making them almost unaffordable for our markets.” Román adds that the new X-Trail is suitable for cities like Guayaquil and Quito that have heavy traffic, as well as being ideal for long trips due to the autonomy of approximately 900 km, according to the tests carried out. "At Nissan we plan to electrify 50% of the world portfolio until 2030. The e-Power solution is perfectly adapted to the Latin American geography due to the scarcity of charging stations to charge a normal electric vehicle." José Román, President and CEO of Nissan Mexico and Nissan Importers Business Unit (NIBU). Characteristics The X-Trail e-Power integrates two electric motors that provide a power of 187 horsepower and a torque of 243 lb/ft, which are responsible for propelling the vehicle at all times, providing an immediate response from the moment it is started. press the accelerator. This model additionally incorporates technologies such as e-4ORCE, an advanced all-wheel drive system, which allows managing the power delivered by the engine and provides greater control and stability of the vehicle regardless of the conditions or type of road; and e-Pedal Step, which uses load resistance to slow the vehicle down by reducing brake pedal use; In turn, this system allows the battery to be recharged. “With Nissan X-Trail e-Power we are taking electric driving to a new level, and that is the result, on the one hand, of the unique electric powertrain of our e-Power technology, but also thanks to meticulously curated elements designed in this vehicle, such as the insulation of the cabin and the package of Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies that it integrates, and that make it a vehicle capable of offering all the excitement of driving an electric car, with maximum safety and autonomy on each journey”, says Rodrigo Centeno, Nissan's senior director of Marketing. Driving Nissan X-Trail e-Power has seven driving modes to provide a better experience, adapted to the driver's preferences and needs of each journey: DRIVE-D: Strong acceleration and handling, similar to a conventional car. D-ECO: Focus on fuel saving and energy regeneration. D-SPORT: Strong acceleration and energy regen buff. BRAKING-B, B-ECO and B-SPORT: Provide faster energy recovery and optimize fuel consumption, maintaining the benefits of each driving mode. EV mode: Ideal for urban settings (heavy traffic) with speeds from 5-60 km/h. Reduces generator firing frequency, extending EV (quiet and comfortable) driving range, and disengages when battery level is less than 50% or throttle demand is high. What is Nissan e-Power? It is an innovative technology for the region. With this system, the car does not depend on cables or electric charging stations during the journey. “At Nissan, we pioneered the development of electric vehicles to bring people to a better, zero-emissions world, as we did with the LEAF. Now, the e-Power system has come to change the rules of how we understood electric mobility, as it presents a completely new alternative in which the autonomy of the vehicle and having electric recharging centers is no longer a limitation”, comments Centeno. https://www.eluniverso.com/entretenimiento/motores/nissan-revoluciona-la-electromovilidad-con-el-x-trail-e-power-nota/

Patients who have been hospitalized in a health care facility for a long time are at higher risk of infection. Potentially deadly, the fungus that usually kills in as little as 90 days is already present in more than half the US states. Infections grew dramatically in the US between 2019 and 2021, according to a study published this week in the Annals of Internal Medicine journal. The researchers warn of the increase in cases that are resistant to echinocandins, the main drug used to treat infections with the Candida fungus. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) now considers it an “urgent antimicrobial resistance threat” because it spreads easily in health care settings, is increasingly resistant to antifungal drugs, and can cause serious infections, sometimes deadly, particularly in hospital and nursing home patients with serious medical problems. In some patients, the CDC report says, this fungus can enter the bloodstream and spread throughout the body, causing serious invasive infections. It often does not respond to commonly used antifungal medications, making infections difficult to treat. Patients who have been hospitalized in a health care facility for a long time, have a central venous catheter or other lines or tubes going into their body, or have previously received antibiotics or antifungal medications appear to be at the highest risk of infection. The essentials to know about Candida auris 1. A laboratory test is needed. Symptoms are not always detected because infections often occur in people who are already sick with another disease. Additionally, the fungus can infect a variety of parts of the body causing different symptoms, according to the CDC. 2. Most infections can be treated with echinocandins, but not all. Several new antifungal drugs are being developed, but more research is needed to understand patient outcomes with these highly resistant strains, and to guide treatment. 3. Healthy family members are at low risk of becoming infected. If they visit a family member with an infection in a nursing home or hospital, they should wash their hands thoroughly afterwards, according to the CDC. Threat Infobae highlights that Scott Roberts, a specialist in infectious diseases at the Yale School of Medicine, although he did not participate in the new study, warned that the increase in the prevalence and resistance to drugs of Candida auris implies a serious threat to health . “I think this problem is not going to go away. I think it's really only going to increase over time”, he considered, while remarking: “Unlike other fungi that are normally acquired from the environment, Candida auris spreads easily from person to person”. And he added: “Once it settles in, in a nursing home, for example, it is almost impossible to eradicate. Just like when it is in patients, they can be colonized for years, even for their entire lives.” https://www.eluniverso.com/noticias/internacional/que-es-el-hongo-candida-auris-que-ha-provocado-alarmas-al-convertirse-en-una-amenaza-urgente-en-estados-unidos-nota/

Scientists will test the impact of a retrofitted 20 meter tall FastRig retractable wing sail on the commercial vessel Pacific Grebe. A research team from the University of Southampton plans to implement ultra-modern wing sails on merchant ships, with the aim of reducing carbon emissions. The group intends to create new software tools that accurately predict the performance of modern ships in the ocean when equipped with FastRig wing sails. These sails are developed by the British company Smart Green Shipping and have government financial support. The group intends to create new software tools that accurately predict the performance of modern ships in the ocean when equipped with FastRig wing sails. These sails are developed by the British company Smart Green Shipping and have government financial support. “Our team of researchers will investigate the complex interactions between the wing sails and the hydrodynamics of the ship, allowing for accurate predictions of the ship's performance that will be compared to the Pacific Grebe demo ship as part of the project,” explained Banks, a member of the Southampton Marine and Maritime Institute and who works at the forefront of the Winds of change project. As part of the two-year development programme, scientists will test the impact of an adapted 20-metre tall FastRig retractable wing sail on the commercial vessel Pacific Grebe, a 105-metre British ship. Banks considered this project innovative, because the sails can be retrofitted to existing boats to rapidly reduce emissions from existing boats. In addition, quieter and emission-free ships will be created in the future, which do not harm ocean environments and improve air quality in ports, towns and cities. "Wind-powered ships are obviously nothing new, but almost all large ships operating today run on fossil fuels, leaving a lasting mark on the environment," the researcher said. https://www.eluniverso.com/larevista/tecnologia/investigadores-probaran-velas-en-grandes-buques-mercantes-para-reducir-la-contaminacion-nota/

PAX East 2023 was held yesterday, an event in which Square Enix revealed much more information about Final Fantasy 16 and showed more videos. It seems incredible, but sometimes on any given Sunday you can get excited about Final Fantasy 16 again. It is no exaggeration to say that everything they show is better than the previous one, and one thing seems to be clear: Square Enix is betting a lot on this project and in just 3 months we will be able to verify it for ourselves. PAX East 2023 was held yesterday and more details, videos and images about Final Fantasy 16 were shown. In fact, the video of the entire event is on Square Enix's YouTube channel, in case you want to take a look at all the new images that they shared Nevertheless, we will try to summarize the new and most interesting information. As you can see in the video above, new locations for Clive to visit throughout Valisthea have been revealed. Fortunately, we can visit all these locations with the different Chocobos that we find in the adventure. From vast plains to war-torn cities. According to Gamingbolt, we will also enter old mines and inside volcanoes filled with lava waterfalls. What is clear is that there will be 6 main regions that we will visit and in each of them there will be a lot of war. Leaving aside the different locations, there are also more details to know about the combat and its abilities. Clive will be able to use abilities from Garuda, Titan, Ifrit, Bahamut, Phoenix and more. One of his star attacks is Odin's Zantetsuken, which can be combined with other special blows to create unimaginable combos. Regarding the various activities, we will have the opportunity to go to a market to buy weapons and improve the ones we carry. In addition, there will also be a training area where we can better sharpen our hits. The game will also give us the opportunity to enjoy an Arcade Mode, which will allow you to replay previous levels. In addition, Naoki Yoshida, producer of Final Fantasy 16 has revealed the graphic modes of the game. In this sense, we can rest assured that according to information from Gamingbolt, the game will have modes: Quality at 4K/30 FPS and Performance at 1440p/60 FPS. Likewise, the loading times that have been appreciated in the event are just 3 seconds. Final Fantasy 16 is just around the corner There is less than 3 months left for us to enjoy this promising work. It will be June 22 when Final Fantasy 16 is released, but a couple of weeks before that we should be able to test a demo whose progress we could carry over to the final game. https://www.3djuegos.com/juegos/final-fantasy-xvi/noticias/final-fantasy-16-revela-nuevo-trailer-gameplay-que-siguen-demostrando-que-sera-uno-juegazos-ano

The creators of Genshin Impact officially announce the release date of their new game: Honkai Star Rail will arrive very soon and we already know all the details of its release After more than a year and a half of waiting since the official announcement, Honkai: Star Rail already has a release date. In a live presentation by HoYoverse, the creators of Genshin Impact have revealed various details of the title, including the aforementioned opening day. It will be next April 26, 2023. Thus, we can already mark on our calendar the final date for the end of the wait for what promises to be one of the great titles of the Chinese developer. Until then we will no longer be able to enjoy the video game, since the final beta has been deactivated as part of the preparation for the premiere. All the details about the release of Honkai: Star Rail Honkai: Star Rail will have a pre-download period prior to its release that will begin three days before the premiere. Specifically, it can be downloaded from April 23, so that we can have everything ready for the moment the servers open and we can enjoy this turn-based combat system proposed by HoYoverse. As usual in the company's big games, it will be available on both PC and mobile. It will also come to PlayStation consoles, although this edition is in development and will not arrive on the launch date. Hoyoverse has carried out presentations of the characters that will be part of the history of the video game in its launch version. On April 26, Honkai: Star Rail will feature the two regions that were already available in the beta. In this sense, the launch will follow a pace similar to that of Genshin Impact. Although the rate of updates has not been revealed, it is expected that they will remain in a period similar to six weeks. It's a pace at which the company has always been relatively comfortable. During the first version of Honkai: Star Rail, in addition to the main story, we will also have a few events including a login event. As in this type of release, from HoYoverse they want to give players a good number of resources so that they can progress quickly and can form their first teams. In this way, we can enter into dynamics with the video game and begin to overcome its first challenges. In addition, a web event is now available to start getting weapons and other interesting aids that can be crucial during the beginning of the game. https://www.3djuegos.com/juegos/honkai-star-rail/noticias/creadores-genshin-impact-anuncian-oficialmente-fecha-lanzamiento-su-nuevo-juego-honkai-star-rail-llegara-muy-pronto-conocemos-todos-detalles-su-estreno

Developer Ironmace is still working on bringing the game back to Valve's platform. We are at the end of March and surely the name of Dark and Darker will ring a bell. The game has proven to be a fairly solid proposition that has suited the tastes of the players, but the latest news we have on the title is not positive for its developers or for the fans. Last we heard, the police had searched Ironmace's offices after being accused of theft. This all comes because Nexon started a legal dispute since some of the Dark and Darker content supposedly comes from one of their canceled games. It should be noted that some developers who are now members of Ironmace worked in this company. Also, after having denied the alleged theft of content from Nexon, we have learned thanks to Games Radar that Dark and Darker has disappeared from Steam.

The next version of Android will incorporate a new alert for when the user is about to run out of battery, along with other innovations that Google is working on, such as the image selector or greater efficiency in app updates from third-party stores. . The preview version for developers of Android 14 continues to show the news that is expected to reach users of devices that use Google's mobile operating system by the end of the year. On this occasion, the novelty is intended to alert the user when the battery is about to run out, as reported by Android Police. Specifically, the new notice will report a "very low" battery level, when only 2 percent remains. Currently, Android 13 notifies at two times when it detects that the mobile battery is low: when there is 20 percent left and when there is 10 percent left. In both cases, the user can consider continuing to use the device for a while longer, unlike if a lower percentage is indicated, with which he will have less time to locate the charger and a plug. Some novelties that have been known before are the recovery of a wave in the multimedia player, an image selector that limits the access of apps to the gallery or news for third-party stores, such as improvements in updates. https://www.europapress.es/portaltic/software/noticia-android-14-alertara-nivel-bateria-muy-20230317145806.html

Computers are getting faster, applications work more easily for us, however, when it comes to interacting with Windows it seems that it doesn't matter what the guts of our PC are, it always seems to go at the same pace. Is it something exclusive to the Redmond operating system? Is it a bad optimization in terms of hardware or is there a technical reason behind it? We explain it to you. The normal thing, and by simple logic, is to think that as we have more computational power in a computer, the programs consume fewer and fewer resources. However, we often find that this is not the case and that the lack of optimization prevails over other things. Is it about programmers' laziness or failing that there are a series of decisions at a technical level or unavoidable circumstances that lead to it? Windows always consumes the same resources as a PC We must start from the fact that in the current operating systems it is this same and not the applications, which is in charge of managing the different processes and, therefore, they not only decide where they are executed and in what order, but also in which conditions that do so and this is where we enter into two different ways of using hardware resources, both by the system itself and by the applications. However, there is one that is a nightmare in terms of performance and that turns certain processes into true vampires of the power of our computer, despite the fact that they do not really require that much power to function and that is that a fixed percentage of the capacity is assigned to them. processing. Regardless of whether we have a powerful high-end computer or a modest MiniPC. For example, Windows 11 comes standard with Virtualization Based Security, a feature that provides rather little for home users, but is capable of consuming 5% performance, regardless of whether you're running an application on a Celeron or a Celeron. Xeon, with the difference in power that this implies. Why are these measures taken? In reality, it is impossible to predict the performance that a program will require, since we have to take into account that it will depend on the latency of each instruction and it is impossible to predict it due to the fact that we do not know where it will find the corresponding data. Will it have the information already in the registers or failing that in some level of the processor's data cache? It must be taken into account that the latency of the processor, measured in its clock cycles, will vary for each instruction depending on the information search period. Therefore, under this premise, together with the enormous number of hardware configurations that exist, it is perfectly understood that for system processes, an operating system, regardless of whether it is Windows, Linux or any other, takes certain percentages of Fixed usage on processor power. What's more, this is done on consoles and as the years go by, these percentages of use are cut to give more power to the games. However, we cannot forget that in this case we are talking about closed systems and it is a totally different situation from that of computers. Additional cores for the OS? All this brings us to one of the novelties that we have seen implemented in the last two generations of Intel Core processors, although not in all models. We are talking about the so-called E-Cores, which on paper have been designed for background tasks. However, the assignment to them is not automatic. In other words, what the operating system will do is look for, for example, 2% of the power of a core that is free to execute a key process. The operating system's way of executing processes in threads for the CPU is similar to finding as much space as possible in a box in which to put things. It will not activate another core if there is still a percentage left in the existing ones. The consequences? Well, despite the fact that the E-Cores are a good idea for this type of task, Windows may ignore it, since in the eyes of the operating system itself, what it has available is a certain number of execution threads, it does not know the power that it provides. contribute each. https://hardzone.es/noticias/componentes/windows-rendimiento-pc-motivos/

Ecuador exported less cocoa and flowers and in general reduced its shipments by 4% and imported 22% more, mostly soybean cake and wheat. Between March and April 2021, the agricultural trade balance (agricultural, livestock and forestry) experienced a fall of 17%, reaching $ 241.6 million in the last month, according to figures published by the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock (MAG). This behavior, according to the State portfolio, was due to the 7% decrease in exports, mainly cocoa and flowers, reducing sales to the United States; although it was clarified that the decline in both items is seasonal in nature. On the other hand, imports rose by 2%, mainly due to the increase in purchases of soybean cake and wheat, coming from Argentina to a greater extent. Meanwhile, at the end of the first four months of the year, agricultural exports experienced a 4% contraction; the country stopped receiving $ 110.3 million. Meanwhile, in the same period, the import of goods of agricultural and agro-industrial origin registered a rise of 22%, reaching $ 1,165 million. Soybean oil is one of the items that contributed to this increase, whose figures went from $ 31.3 million to $ 42.7 million, that is, 36% more. In this way, the trade balance reached $ 1,289 million, which meant a decrease that was around 20% compared to the same period in 2020; that is, $ 321 million less. Regarding the most exported products, in first place is the Orito, with $ 14.8 million in sales abroad for the month of April, 23% higher than that sent in the previous month, in a greater amount to the United States. In second position, monthly exports of wood pulp and paper or cardboard rose, for an amount of $ 1.61 million more, particularly destined for Colombia; to this destination, Ecuador sold corrugated paper, test liner paper, among other items. Subsequently, the export of cocoa butter - input for the manufacture of chocolate and in the cosmetic and food industries - rose, from $ 0.70 million (138 tons) in March to $ 1.84 million (361 tons) in April of this year. Its main commercial ally was Germany, receiving 220 tons of the derivative for a total value of $ 1.14 million; being supplied by Nestlé Ecuador, Cofina S.A. and Aromasabor Cia. Ltda. In imports, for April 2021, the industry bought $ 138.4 million between soybean cake and wheat, giving a growth of 19% compared to what was acquired in the previous month. Of the oilseed, 136,733 tons were brought, having as suppliers Argentina (72%), Bolivia (17%), the United States (8%) and other countries (3%); Meanwhile, 223,214 tons of cereal were purchased, from Canada (47%), the United States (39%) and Argentina (14%). In April, 17,151 tons of oats and flakes were purchased, for a value of $ 5.79 million; mostly from Canada. Meanwhile, the volume of foreign exchange of Ecuador against other territories, in the agricultural field also registered a reduction of $ 37 million between March and April, standing at $ 924 million in the last month. Of this value, $ 757 million (82%) were traded with 19 countries: $ 251 million corresponded to the NAFTA block; $ 239 million with the South Americans: Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Peru, Bolivia and Brazil; $ 115 million with Europeans: Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Belgium and Spain; the remaining $ 152 million with Russia, China, Turkey, Japan and Algeria.

For twelve years the National Day of the Andean Condor has been commemorated in Ecuador. In 2009, the celebration of the National Day of the Andean Condor was established in Ecuador. Bird that is in the national shield and represents an emblem for the country, in addition, it is an endangered species. According to the National Condor Working Group, the objective of remembering this date is to make an urgent call to society to reinforce the commitments for its conservation. Twelve years ago, the po[CENSORED]tion of Andean condors in Ecuador has continued to decline, threats and environmental problems have worsened despite actions and conservation plans. The Andean condor is a huge bird that is among the largest in the world capable of flight. Given its great weight (up to 15 kilograms), even its huge wingspan (3 meters). These birds prefer to live in windy areas, where they can glide on air currents without great effort. In 2018, the last national census was carried out to estimate the po[CENSORED]tion of this scavenger bird, and it was considered that there were 150 specimens in Ecuador. Only between 2018 and 2019 there were 20 deaths of condors due to poisoning, which is equivalent to 13% of the total po[CENSORED]tion (130). The National Condor Working Group reports poisoned condors, shot dead and threatened by urban fauna abandoned in the páramos. In Ecuador, poisoning from the use of pesticides was registered for the first time at the end of 2018, when the female condor Ami was found dead in the province of Cotopaxi. Later, two other condors were poisoned and the veterinary assistance of the GNTCA specialists managed to restore their health and return them to the natural environment. During the month of July, the National Working Group of the Andean Condor will be sharing on its social networks the stories of thirty Ecuadorian condors that have been victims and protagonists (from 1996 to 2021) of the threats that threaten this species in the country. With this, it is expected that the public will know a part of the history of this emblematic species that is in danger of becoming extinct.

If we do not take into account the first Range Rover and, perhaps, the Jeep Grand Cherokee, we can say that BMW is one of the pioneers in the premium SUV segment. The first generation of the X5 took its rivals Audi and Mercedes-Benz by surprise. Even so, it is also fair to say that the star's firm had been selling the G-Class for many years. However, "who strikes first, strikes twice" and at Bayerische they want to continue reigning. Today, BMW's sales are sustained, in large part, by the success of its SUVs. Those that carry the weight are the X1 and X3 but their older brothers are not far behind. For this reason and, according to the firm's verbatim words, "they offer a high level of comfort and luxury, supreme performance and pronounced dynamic drivability." Now, two special versions are added: Black Vermilion and Frozen Black metallic ... BMW will offer the X5 and X6 Black Vermilion edition and X7 edition in Frozen Black metallic with all its engines ... First of all we will tell you the news that the BMW X5 and X6 Black Vermilion edition bring. Just take a look at the images to see that both models combine an Iconic Glow grille with the special BMW Individual Frozen Black metallic paint. Complementing the M Shadow Line headlamps with laser light and the M sport pack (with specific front and rear aprons) emphasize the sporty character of the X5 and X6. Inside doors they also have their own accessories. Among the goodies that can be incorporated we have a heated steering wheel, remote start or Harman Kardon audio system. As a curiosity, add the selector for the transmission and the start button in glass. In addition, the headliner is upholstered in M Alcantara Anthracite and there are various trim and decorative fixtures finished in carbon fiber or brushed aluminum. Finally there is the BMW X7 edition in Frozen Black metallic. As in its brothers, its body is dressed in the same metallic Frozen Black tone, although in this case the grille is in glossy black. In addition, add the M Pack, 22-inch BMW Individual alloy wheels and Orbit Gray edition M Sport brake calipers finished in the same high-gloss black.

Yellow, bright and sweet ... this fruit and its flavor is characteristic for the palate, but how beneficial is it for our body? Pineapple is one of the most appreciated fruits in gastronomy. It comes from a plant that only bears fruit once every three years, offering a single sweet fruit that is used as a dessert or to integrate in numerous cooking recipes. In addition, this fruit has been associated with diets, but the truth is that it is a suitable food to eat mid-morning, or during a mid-afternoon snack for a snack, and even as a dessert. Thanks to its origin, you can find pineapple on the market throughout the year. First of all, you have to know that pineapple is a fruit that only matures satisfactorily on the plant, something that directly influences its composition, since its content of sugar and active ingredients doubles in the last weeks of ripening. In fact, the fruits that are picked prematurely are acidic and contain hardly any nutrients. Nutrients and other components include iodine, vitamin C, organic acids, and bromelain. For example, if it has matured correctly, it contains around 11% carbohydrates, although with 86% water, offering an energy intake of 50 calories per 100 grams of edible product. On the other hand, pineapple stands out for being a rich source of vitamin C, a vitamin that contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative damage, that is, it has a great antioxidant power. Specifically, it provides 20 mg of this per 100 grams of edible product. It is also a source of iodine, a mineral that contributes to normal energy metabolism and thyroid production, adding to normal thyroid function. Iodine is present in an amount of 30 mg per 100 grams. It still has more potassium, with 250 mg for the same amount. To these benefits, the nutritionist Stephania Esparza adds that this fruit has bromelain enzyme, which is a good element for digestion, when, for example, pineapple is eaten for dessert –after having eaten protein. Finally, she highlights that the recommended amount is 3/4 cup, and that in some cases she can be allergic; check with your GP before regular intake.

Covid-19 cases rose 11% last week and recorded greater increases in those areas of the country where vaccination does not exceed 40%. The United States accused China and Russia on Friday of spreading disinformation on social networks about the side effects and efficacy of vaccines created in the West to promote their own serums against covid-19. White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki made that accusation at a news conference and said she was relying on data compiled by the State Department. "We have discovered that Russia and China have promoted their own vaccines through messages that undermine the origin of Western vaccines to help develop their programs," Psaki said. Specifically, according to the spokesperson, the misinformation of Russia and China is directed against the two vaccines with preparations based on mRNA that have been approved in the United States: that of Pfizer and that of Moderna. "That kind of information magnifies the potential side effects associated with Western vaccines," she said. The White House believes that misinformation about vaccines, masks and social distancing measures is undermining the authorities' efforts to deal with the pandemic and putting lives at risk. For this reason, on Thursday, the highest US health authority, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, warned of the "urgent threat" posed by misinformation about covid-19, at a time when cases are increasing and vaccination rates have stagnated. Murthy's office made his recommendations in a 22-page public health notice. Such reports are usually reserved for specific health issues, but the scope and scale of the misinformation is so great that the Joe Biden government decided to use that resource. Psaki today also again asked Facebook and other tech giants to change their algorithms to prevent the spread of false data. Covid-19 cases rose 11% last week and recorded greater increases in those areas of the country where vaccination does not exceed 40%, according to the government Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The median immunization rate among those over the age of 18 is 59.2%, while 67.9% have already received a dose, according to CDC data. Website News: -->Here<--
