Vitamin D may help fight off coronavirus after all, a study suggests. The jury has been out on the 'sunshine vitamin' since early in the pandemic, with conflicting findings muddying the waters. Papers that did find a link were deemed not rigorous enough and not definitive. But a new study—this time in Israel—claims to have the most conclusive evidence yet. Previous research has been criticised for only looking at vitamin D levels when the Covid patient was already in hospital.(Snip)To overcome this limitation, in their latest study, researchers from Bar Ilan University and the Galilee Medical Center looked at patient records up to two years before

Four weeks ago, OneAmerica insurance company CEO Scott Davison revealed that they had witnessed 'the highest death rates in the history of this business—not just at OneAmerica' with a jump of '40% over what they were pre-pandemic.' Interestingly, Davison noted that the majority of deaths are not classified as due to Covid-19. The implication to many was clear—that the Covid-19 vaccine is linked to the excess mortality, and months of vaccine injury reports were now spilling over to actuarial data—which is beginning to show, among other things, that younger, working-age people began dying in greater numbers as vaccine mandates hit

The Home Office has told refugees staying in hotels it will stop giving them free toiletries and medication, according to a new letter. The letter states that the measures will come into effect on February 11 and comes after it was revealed that the Government is spending £4.7 million a day housing asylum seekers in hotels, an estimated £127 per person. Faiz Mohammad Seddeqi, 30, a former guard at the British Embassy in Kabul, received the letter on Thursday. Mr Seddeqi has been staying in a hotel for almost six months after he was evacuated to the UK from Afghanistan in August last year with his wife and son.

Disgraced peer Lord Ahmed has been jailed for more than five years for trying to rape a young girl and sexually assaulting a boy aged under 11 in the 1970s—and his victim is now calling for him to be stripped of his title. The former Labour politician, 64, was convicted in January of sexually abusing two children when he was a teenager in Rotherham.(Snip)Ahmed was found guilty of two counts of attempted rape and one of buggery and was today jailed for five years and six months. His two victims, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, both bravely sat in court to see their abuser jailed.

Five robbers swarmed a high-end Soho boutique Thursday afternoon, stealing $48,300 worth of luxury goods and injuring a security guard. The brazen heist happened around 12:30 p.m. at the Celine Boutique on Wooster Street, where some pricey handbags retail for thousands of dollars, the NYPD said. Two suspects casually entered the Manhattan store before three cohorts pushed the door open and fought with the French boutique’s security, according to police.
One guard suffered an injury to his elbow and thumb during the fracas. The suspects fled the store with their haul and remained on the run Friday night, police said. In 2020, thieves robbed the Soho store

Mayor Adams bragged in 2019 about being a better police officer than his “cracker” colleagues in the NYPD, the Daily News has learned.
Adams, who was at the time gearing up to launch his campaign for mayor, went on the racially-charged diatribe while at a private event in Harlem on Dec. 13, 2019, a video exclusively obtained by The News shows. “Every day in the Police Department, I kicked those crackers’ a--,” Adams says in the video. “Man, I was unbelievable in the Police Department with 100 Blacks in Law Enforcement,” he continued, referring to a police advocacy group he co-founded in the 1990s.

Federal workers in Portland went off on city commissioners over the 'intolerable' and 'dangerous' conditions of the downtown area outside federal buildings, where they describe having to 'step over discarded needles and people sleeping in doorways to get to work.'
On Wednesday, the City Council heard from two people who both live and work in downtown Portland who demanded that the situation be addressed, specifically, the massive homeless encampment outside federal buildings. 'Trash and human waste are everywhere,' Dar Crammond, director of the U.S. Geological Survey's Oregon Water Science Center, said at the meeting. 'Drug dealing is rife, and we often have to step over discarded needles and sleeping forms

The Covid-19 pandemic has seen two pernicious trends emerge as to how Americans are getting around their country: public transit is struggling with a reduced number of paying customers, while there has been a sharp increase in car crash deaths. The shuttering of businesses, the rise of working from home and a fear of contracting the coronavirus saw public transport use plummet across the US–commuter rail alone reported a 79% decline in ridership in the year to September 2020. Despite a slight resurgence in 2021, trips taken on all modes of public transit are still around half of what they were before the pandemic, federal government figures show.

North Las Vegas police have released a dozen harrowing 911 calls from last week's deadly six-car pileup that killed nine people, including a family of seven with four children. 'There's bodies everywhere. Adults and children. Come fast,' one horrified onlooker told an emergency dispatcher shortly after the collision on Commerce Avenue in Las Vegas last Saturday. 'Oh my God. My God! Get down, it’s a kid, it’s a kid, Don’t look!' another 911 caller said in Spanish.(Snip)Police said the horror crash was caused by Gary Robinson, 59, a career criminal with a lengthy history of speeding charges, who blew through a red light at 100mph and smashed

Conservative lawmakers in Iowa are pushing to have cameras installed in public school classrooms to allow parents to watch via livestreams—as the debate over critical race theory continues to rage. The lawmakers introduced the bill this week that would see cameras put in almost every K-12 classroom, with the exception of physical education and special needs classes. Teachers who fail to keep the camera recording, or obstruct its view, could be fined up to 5 percent of their weekly salary each time they are caught doing it, according to the bill.(Snip)Florida recently introduced a similar bill to have cameras and microphones installed in public school classrooms.

More than 3,900 people are 'interested' in a Facebook event calling for Rotterdam residents to throw rotten eggs Jeff Bezos's newly built-superyacht, for which a historic Dutch bridge will be dismantled. The bill to allow the yacht to pass through being footed by the Amazon billionaire, with the £400million, 417ft (127 metre) Y721 set to be the biggest sailing yacht in the world when it is completed this year in the Netherlands, overtaking the current largest ocean-going passenger ship Sea Cloud.(Snip)'Rotterdam was built from the rubble by the people of Rotterdam, and we don't just take that apart for the pha**us symbol of a megalomaniac billionaire.

Vice President Kamala Harris said Wednesday that it was Congress's fault President Biden could not fulfill his promise on immigration reform. In an interview with Noticias Telemundo, Biden's 'root causes' immigration czar was asked: 'Elections are in a couple months' time. I'm sure you are aware the border is going to be an issue, also President Biden promised immigration reform he hasn't been able to deliver. Why would you say Latinos should vote for the Democrats this November?' Harris sidestepped the question, instead saying that 'Congress is not acting' on immigration.(Snip)'The way our democracy works is you need a majority and sometimes in the Senate you need 60

Noo Yawk's proud Soros DA wanted to give the known violent criminal, who already was on parole for a case in which he tried to shoot a police officer while being apprehended, a sporting chance to fight the power. NYPD has a union; why not do a sickout for as long as it takes to get this DA shown the door?
