Tiger at NYC's Bronx Zoo tests positive for coronavirus

A tiger at the Bronx Zoo has tested positive for the new coronavirus, in what is believed to be the first known infection in an animal in the U.S. or a tiger anywhere, federal officials and the zoo said Sunday.

The 4-year-old Malayan tiger named Nadia — and six other tigers and lions that have also fallen ill — are believed to have been infected by a zoo employee who wasn't yet showing symptoms, the zoo said. The first animal started showing symptoms March 27, and all are doing well and expected to recover, said the zoo, which has been closed to the public since March 16 amid the surging coronavirus outbreak in New York.

Georgia senator bought stock in personal protective equipment maker amid coronavirus crisis: report

Sen. David Perdue (R-Ga.) purchased stock in a company that produces personal protective equipment as the coronavirus crisis heated up, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Monday.

Perdue reported 10 different stock purchases in the company DuPont de Nemours between Jan. 24 and March 2. The investments amounted to $185,000, according to the newspaper. Jan. 24 was the date of a Senate members-only coronavirus briefing but an official for Perdue said the senator did not attend.

The senator’s financial portfolio activity jumped almost threefold last month when compared to monthly reports between January 2018 through February 2020, which recorded an average of 38 transactions.

Hospital administrators are putting the lives of Nurses and doctors at risk. Rather than demanding something be done by politicians, they retaliate against those are risking their lives to save their fellow human beings. Nurses are being muzzled when they speak up. Just like Trump is muzzling Fauci. It's evil.

Former CDC head: New York death toll might be 80 percent lower if social distancing was enacted 2 weeks earlier

Former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Tom Frieden said in a new interview that implementing social distancing measures two weeks earlier could have reduced New York’s coronavirus death toll up to 80 percent.



“Flu was coming down, and then you saw this new ominous spike. And it was COVID. And it was spreading widely in New York City before anyone knew it,” Frieden, who also served as commissioner of New York City’s Health Department, told The New York Times. “You have to move really fast. Hours and days. Not weeks. Once it gets a head of steam, there is no way to stop it.”
