Covid blood test can predict patient survival chances
If validated in real-life hospital settings, the test could enable doctors to direct life-saving treatment to the most needy patients sooner, boosting their chances of survival. It could also bolster doctors’ confidence in the face of difficult decisions, such as whether to offer palliative care or an ICU bed when hospitals are close to capacity.
Trey Gowdy Blasts Pelosi For COVID-19 Relief Comment: ‘What She Just Said Makes Me Madder Than Hell’
After several months of stalled negotiations, Pelosi expressed willingness on Friday to agree to a smaller, $900 billion coronavirus stimulus package.
“That is a total game-charger: a new president and a vaccine,” Pelosi said in a clip played by Fox News anchor Dana Perino on Monday afternoon’s “The Daily Briefing.” “It’s for a shorter period of time, but that’s OK now, because we have a new president.”

Nearly 75 per cent of Torontonians intend to get a COVID-19 vaccine once it is available: survey
FILE – In this Monday, July 27, 2020 file photo, a nurse prepares a shot as a study of a possible COVID-19 vaccine, developed by the National Institutes of Health and Moderna Inc., gets underway in Binghamton, N.Y.
Nearly 75 per cent of Torontonians say that they will get a COVID-19 vaccine once its available, surpassing the threshold that the World Health Organization has said is necessary to achieve herd immunity in a community.
According to an online survey of 1,201 residents that was conducted on behalf of Toronto Public Health by Ipsos Reid, about 73 per cent of respondents said that they would either definitely get a COVID-19 vaccine (40 per cent) or probably get it (33 per cent) once they become available.
Racialized Torontonians are more than three times as likely to contract COVID-19. A new equity plan is seeking to change that.
City staff are recommending 25 “concrete actions” to address the disparity in COVID-19 cases among lower-income and racialized Torontonians, including boosting testing in some hard-hit neighbourhoods, adding capacity on busy TTC routes and expanding community outreach.
The recommendations, some of which have already been implemented, are included in a COVID-19 equity action plan that will be considered by the board of health next week.
The plan, which has been in the works since March, seeks to “stop virus spread and deliver immediate emergency support to the neighbourhoods and populations that have been hardest hit by COVID-19.”
