Study shows size, severity of chikungunya outbreaks unpredictable

The size and severity of chikungunya outbreaks -- a mosquito-borne disease is unpredictable, according to a study. The virus, common in tropical and subtropical regions, including Asia, Africa, and South America, leads to symptoms such as acute fever, followed by debilitating joint pain that can last for months. Though rarely fatal, the chikungunya virus can be particularly severe for high-risk individuals, including newborns and older adults. In a new study, published in Science Advances, researchers at the University of Notre Dame, US, analysed more than 80 outbreaks of chikungunya virus to improve the prediction of future outbreaks and inform vaccine trial development. "Chikungunya outbreaks are unpredictable in both size and severity," said Alex Perkins, Professor of infectious di...

I Ranked the Audio Quality of Eight Pairs of Smart Glasses, and It Was Surprisingly Difficult

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Did you know you can customize Google to filter out garbage? Take these steps for better search results, including adding my work at Lifehacker as a preferred source.I've tested a lot of smart glasses for Lifehacker, and it's tricky to compare them because the category is all over the place. Some "smart glasses," like Chamelo’s Music Shield, are stylish accessories with built-in speakers; others, like the XReal One Pro, are cutting-edge display glasses packed with tech. So lining them up side by side is like kiwis-to-tangelos.But there is one thing that almost every pair of smart glasses shares: they play sounds. So I decided to focus on just that—how these glasses actually sound—using every pair I own, from $650 XReal...

If a deal was to be negotiated, and ideally we would like that, we’d still have to go through our process of member affirmation meetings, voting and so on,” Alberta Teachers Association president Jason Schilling said.It would take “about a week” for teachers to affirm any new deal, Schilling said.He added that the union and the province are “back at the table in an exploratory way right now.”“We’re just letting those talks happen at the table outside of the media eye so that we can try to find a solution to issues that teachers are seeing,” he said.

Long Covid patients more likely to suffer from unusual heart rhythm disorder

An unusual heart rhythm disorder, also known as Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), is more common in people with long Covid, according to a study. The study found that the condition, where the heart beats abnormally fast when changing position from lying down to standing up, is more common in middle-aged women than men. For people affected with POTS, standing up is a challenge. Their hearts beat faster than normal at rest and during exertion. Patients also experience fatigue and difficulties concentrating -- symptoms that are common in long Covid. Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden found that POTS occurs in almost a third of patients with severe long Covid. "Previous, smaller studies have shown that there is a connection, but now we can say with certainty th...
