Yale’s Frank Snowden on how this pandemic, like others, is changing history - Kathimerini English Edition

If 2020 had been coronavirus-free, it would have been difficult to envision a Donald Trump defeat or to see the global economy operating under strict statist control fueled by printed money. These are only two developments that are bound to cause a kind of lasting change that has not yet been fully realized. It's not the first time this has happened. Indeed, history-altering epidemics have been the norm throughout the centuries. Without epidemics Napoleon could have established a long-lasting French-speaking global empire, Constantinople would have been strong enough to effectively fight off the Ottomans in 1453, and even the ancient city-state of Athens could have been transformed into an empire that could have reigned over the Mediterranean, and even Europe, for centuries. Back to 2021: The world as it was just a year ago has been profoundly changed by the coronavirus pandemic. But how far-reaching will this change be? From today's focal point, can we contemplate ...

Navel Orangeworm Plague Might be Growing Out of Control - Growing Produce

JavaScript is required for the gallery to function properly. Start Slideshow When it comes to navel orangeworm control in your pistachio, almond, and walnut orchards in the fall and winter, sanitation is the key. While that sounds simple — destroy any mummy nuts — the truth is there are a lot of factors that can make a simple solution complicated. Advertisement These complications have financial implications, as labor to help clean up the orchard can be costly and time-consuming. These complications can also come in the form of weather issues that make postharvest cleanup more of a challenge. “Although this is a proven practice, we still see some growers are not doing this practice, for whatever reason. Sometimes, it is difficult to do mummy sanitation due to the rainfall in the winter, or due to the heavy ground in some orchards. But it is important to plan in advance considering these factors. Sanitation can be done at any time between October and Feb. 1,” Jhalendr...

It's Not Just TSA: Call Outs, Resignations Plague a Range of Shuttered Agencies - GovExec.com

The Transportation Security Administration has drawn widespread coverage for the higher-than-usual call out rate of its workforce, which is set to miss its second paycheck due to the partial government shutdown in the coming days. TSA is just one of many agencies dealing with call outs and, in some cases, employees simply leaving their jobs. TSA call outs eclipsed 10 percent last weekend, a significantly higher rate than the same days in 2018. The agency has maintained that delays are concentrated to a few airports and safety has not been compromised. At a Thursday panel discussion organized by Democrats on the House Homeland Security Committee, however, J. David Cox, president of the American Federation of Government Employees, the union that represents TSA workers, said the situation has gone beyond just employees calling in sick or claiming financial hardships. In Hawaii, he noted, where the cost of living is among the highest in the country, there have been a “large number” of res...

Plague results in mass die-offs in prairie dog colony - The Denver Channel

WELD COUNTY, Colo. — Public health officials have confirmed a prairie dog colony in Weld County is suffering from a plague. The Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment said the plague resulted in mass animal die-offs. They have seen an increase in the plague in colonies this year. The plague is a serious bacterial disease spread by infected fleas. While it can spread to humans and other mammals, health officials said the risk to public health is low because the colony lives on private property in a rural area of the county. Prairie dogs are sensitive to the plague and the infected fleas can kill off an entire colony. Mark E. Wallace, executive director of Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment, said their sudden absence could be a warning sign. “Residents should protect themselves by keeping fleas off pets and using an insect repellent when working, playing or camping in areas where fleas may be present,” he said. The health department also rec...
