“We know that these don’t adequately exist, and we are excited to have a great partner in NewYork-Presbyterian,

El Paso health leaders are urging the community to take more responsibility in fighting the deadly toll from the coronavirus.

If residents refuse, they could face clampdowns, including court-ordered restrictions, officials warned.

“As we continue to experience community spread and COVID fatigue, the number of positive cases and hospitalizations will continue to rise by record numbers unless each and every one of us take full responsibility for our actions and promote change as we have been appealing, mandating and begging,” Dr. Hector Ocaranza, the city-county health authority, said in a news release.

The Latest: UK Told It’s at ‘Tipping Point’ in Virus Fight | Business News

| Health Current Events

LONDON — One of the main medical advisers to the British government has warned that the country is at a “tipping point” in its battle against the coronavirus pandemic, a day before Prime Minister Boris Johnson is set to announce fresh lockdown restrictions for virus hot spots in the north of England.

England’s deputy chief medical officer, Professor Jonathan Van-Tam, said in a statement that the country is at a “tipping point similar to where we were in March.”

The U.K. has experienced Europe’s deadliest outbreak with more than 42,750 deaths.

Van-Tam laid out his hope that history won’t repeat itself in light of better testing and treatments, as well as greater knowledge of the virus itself.

Johnson is on Monday expected to impose additional restrictions in areas where the virus has been spreading fastest in recent weeks. Pubs and restaurants in northern cities like Liverpool for example are expected

Unemployment benefits fight highlights long-term economic pain

As state legislators contemplate the future of unemployment benefits, the health of Michigan’s economy hangs in the balance.

Michigan’s quick recovery, largely thanks to the automotive sector working double time after two months of lost production, has stalled out.

Jobs posts remain well below January levels and long-term unemployment is on the rise. More than 230,000 unemployed Michiganders entered the federal Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation program between Aug. 29 and Sept. 19, according to U.S. Department of Labor data.

That system pays benefits for those unemployed longer than 26 weeks. In other words, hundreds of thousands of Michiganders have been laid off since March with no sign of returning to a job. The Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity has failed to tell Crain’s just how many people would be impacted if an agreement to extend benefits isn’t reached.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s office claims as many as 800,000 in

GENEVA (Reuters) – Many nurses caring for COVID-19 patients are suffering burn-out or psychological distress, and many have faced abuse or discrimination outside of work, the International Council of Nurses (ICN) said.

Supplies of personal protective equipment for nurses and other health workers in some care homes remain insufficient, it said, marking World Mental Health Day on Saturday.

“We are extremely concerned about the mental health impact on nurses,” Howard Catton, a British nurse who is the ICN’s chief executive, told Reuters Television at the association’s headquarters in Geneva.

“Our most recent survey of national nurses’ associations shows that more than 70% of them (the associations) were saying that nurses have been subject to violence or discrimination and
