UPI reports new research shows it's a very good idea to insist that healthcare workers get an annual flu shot. That's according to researchers from the University of Georgia, Montana State University and Monash University in Australia. They found that states with mandatory flu shots for hospital workers saw statewide reductions in deaths from influenza and pneumonia. They estimate that during the 2016-17 season alone, nearly 2,000 deaths were averted in the 15 U.S. states that had mandatory vaccination laws at that time. The findings suggest that health-worker vaccination laws may be a good way to protect the country's most vulnerable populations. The researchers say it's possible that similar benefits could also be seen with mandatory COVID-19 vaccination of hospital workers.
La Palma, Oct 19 (EFE).- The Cumbre Vieja volcano has been spewing lava and ash for a month and the rivers of red-hot magma flooding the Spanish island of La Palma have flattened nearly 2,000 buildings and engulfed 763 hectares of land, an area greater than 1,000 soccer fields, the Spanish Department of National Security (DSN) reported Tuesday.The rumbling volcano shows no signs of abating and dense lava flows that appeared after the partial collapse of the northern flank of the cone are heading west and northwest within the exclusion zone, the DSN added.
