As for other G90 models, 2021 brings additional standard equipment to the lineup. The company’s Adaptive Control Suspension and Intelligent Front-Lighting are included on the base model, the latter of which not only automatically dims high-beams, but can make adjustments to the brightness on-demand. Newly optional for 2021 is a reverse parking collision avoidance system. It can detect objects or pedestrians behind the car and signal an audible warning, and it can automatically apply the brakes to prevent a collision. 2021 also sees a snazzy new set of optional 19-inch wheels for the G90. Genesis doesn’t offer pricing for the 2021 G90, be it the base model or the limited-edition Stardust version. We suspect it will be a tad pricey, as Genesis only plans to build 50 star-themed cars. And if you want one in America, we’re sad to report you’re out of luck. As of now, all 50 Stardust editions are slated for sale exclusively in South Korea starting July 2.

When it comes to emotions and their depictions, some people are naturally more evocative than others. And to substantiate this, a recent study has found that the level of affection expressed by women can be understood, to an extent, by doing an analysis of their genetics and their immediate environment. But the same cannot be said for men. Published in Communication Monographs, and led by one Kory Floyd of the University of Arizona, the study has tried to understand that while some people are more affectionate than others, what causes this variation and has genetics got anything to do with it? Floyd was quoted as saying that a study like this makes room for discussions about the possibility that many social and behavioural traits that people assume are learned or picked up, could have a genetic component.

More than a half-million people have now died from COVID-19 worldwide, and the death toll has doubled in just over seven weeks. That grim milestone – marked Sunday by Johns Hopkins University – is particularly unsettling given warnings by health experts that the pandemic is still in its infancy. As the number of confirmed cases also surpassed 10 million worldwide, health officials are bracing for a second wave of the deadly virus, likely this fall. While China and Europe took the brunt of the early days of the pandemic, the virus is now raging in the United States, Brazil, Russia and India. The death toll surpassed 250,000 on May 4. In a sign of the new reality, the European Union is set to lift its external borders on July 1, and is weighing which countries should be allowed access to EU member states. The criteria include not only infection rates in other countries, but also how those countries are dealing with the rates, notably testing and tracing. Against that backdrop, the EU is not expected to allow travelers from the U.S., Brazil and Russia into their borders. It's been five months since the first U.S. case. Read how the pandemic unfolded. US death toll could hit nearly 180,000 by October Some experts predict the U.S. death toll to hit nearly 180,000 by Oct. 1. The University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation released a model Wednesday with a range of 159,497 to 213,715 deaths nationwide. Institute Director Dr. Chris Murray, however, stressed the importance of wearing a face mask, saying that simple gesture has had a “profound effect” on the epidemic. Wearing a mask “is extremely low-cost, and, for the individual, provides a 1/3 – as high as one half – reduction in the risk of transmission,” he said in a video press release. “But at the community level, can save an extraordinary number of lives.” Artist Jorge Rodriguez-Gerada works on a 20,000-square foot mural of a health care worker in a parking lot in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in the Queens borough of New York on May 27, 2020. Seth Wenig, AP The U.S. on Saturday saw 42,597 new coronavirus cases. On Friday, the nation recorded 45,255 cases, the highest daily count yet. As several states see dramatic increases as well, the jump in Texas and Florida prompted the states' governors to pause reopening plans. Texas closed bars and limited restaurant capacity, while Florida banned drinking at bars. Meanwhile, health officials are possibly missing 10 coronavirus cases for every one case detected, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Robert Redfield estimated Thursday. "We’re still in the first wave," Redfield said. But the pandemic today looks markedly different from the outbreak two or three months ago, he said, when many deaths were among older people and those with underlying medical conditions. Now, the CDC is seeing a greater proportion of cases diagnosed in younger people, said Dr. Jay Butler, the CDC's deputy director of infectious diseases and COVID-19 response incident manager. The impact on deaths and hospitalizations from the increase in positive cases won't be known for a few weeks. Younger people are less likely to succumb to the disease, and deaths in the United States have been decreasing significantly for the past two months while cases plateaued in the same period.
