Five Years Since COVID-19 Was Declared a Global Pandemic
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a global pandemic, marking a significant turning point in modern history. The virus, which originated in Wuhan, China, rapidly spread worldwide, leading to unprecedented measures such as lockdowns, travel restrictions, and the widespread adoption of remote work and virtual communication tools. Over the past five years, COVID-19 has profoundly impacted global health, economies, and daily life, with over 7 million reported deaths worldwide, including 1.2 million in the United States. While the WHO declared the end of the global health emergency on May 5, 2023, the pandemic's effects continue to influence society today.
Wendy Williams Taken by Ambulance After Dropping a Desperate Note
Wendy Williams was taken from her New York assisted living facility by ambulance after reportedly dropping a handwritten note from her window, begging for help. The incident prompted a wellness check from law enforcement. Wendy’s struggles with health issues and legal battles over her financial guardianship have been widely publicized in recent years. The details surrounding the note and her condition remain unclear, but sources close to the situation say she is now receiving care.
Innovative Solution to Banana Waste: The 12-Hour Fresh Banana
Food waste remains a pressing global issue, particularly with perishable items like bananas. To address this, Tropic, a biotech company based in England, has developed a genetically modified banana that remains fresh for up to 12 hours after being peeled. This innovation aims to significantly reduce the staggering statistic that over 60% of exported bananas are wasted before reaching consumers. By extending the freshness of bananas, Tropic hopes to decrease food waste and reduce CO2 emissions along the supply chain by more than 25%, potentially equating to removing two million passenger vehicles from the road each year.
