#Fentanyl #CDC #DeadlyDrug #Opiod  Fentanyl is now the most commonly used drug involved in drug overdoses, according to a new government report. The latest numbers from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics say that the rate of drug overdoses involving the synthetic opioid skyrocketed by about 113 percent each year from 2013 through 2016. The number of total drug overdoses jumped 54 percent each year between 2011 and 2016. In 2016, there were 63,632 drug overdose deaths. According to Wednesday’s report, which analyzed death certificates for drug overdose deaths between 2011 and 2016, fentanyl was involved in nearly 29 percent of all overdose deaths in 2016.

From 2012 to 2015, heroin became the most frequently involved drug in overdos...

#Coronavirus #COVID-19 #Fever  #Cough  #ShortnessOfBreath  By Rachel Feltman If you get COVID-19, you’re unlikely to get seriously sick and even less likely to die, especially if you are otherwise healthy. But that raises a troubling question that’s difficult to answer: How do you know if your seasonal sniffles might actually be COVID-19? Here’s a handy guide. What symptoms does COVID-19 have? The main symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, cough, and shortness of breath. If I have the symptoms of COVID-19, what should I do? If you have symptoms of COVID-19 but are not feeling horribly ill, you probably have a cold or the flu. Do not panic. If you have no reason to think you’ve been in close contact with someone who is infected with COVID-19, you should proceed as if you have a cold or the flu. You are unlikely to actually have COVID-19 and, if you do, you are unlikely to get particularly sick. That being said, it’s more important than ever  t...

#Friends #JenniferAniston #CourteneyCox #LisaKudrow #MattLeBlanc #MatthewPerry #DavidSchwimmer It’s happening: The “ Friends ” cast is reuniting for an exclusive untitled unscripted special on HBO Max . Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer will return to the original “ Friends ” soundstage, Stage 24, on the Warner Bros. Studio lot in Burbank to celebrate the long-running series, which ended its run in 2004. Sources close to the situation tell Variety the six stars will receive at least $2.5 million apiece for participating in the special. The reunion has been hotly anticipated, with speculation about the HBO Max special swirling since last fall , just months after the WarnerMedia-created SVOD platform nabbed the streaming rights to the show from Netflix in a deal with Warner Bros. Television. All 10 seasons of the comedy left Netflix at the end of 2019, meaning that “Friends” has thus far not been availa...
