For most states, the majority of Covid-19 deaths were in long-term care facilities, as shown in this horizontal bar chart. For the country as a whole, 42% of all Covid-19 deaths were in long-term care facilities. Minnesota's 635 Covid deaths in long-term care were 81% of the state's total Covid deaths. Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Connecticut all had 70% or more of their Covid deaths among long-term care facility occupants. At the other extreme, only 20% of New York's Covid deaths and 24% of Nevada's were long-term care related. Even though New York's percentage was lowest, it had the greatest number of deaths in long-term care at 5,847. Data were compiled by the Kaiser Family Foundation and came from 37 states as of May 21, 2020.

COVID-19 Deaths
Eighty per cent of the 133,359 COVID-19 deaths are concentrated in 7 countries with 20% in the US, as shown in this 100% stacked bar chart. The seven other countries are mostly in Europe--Italy, Spain, France, United Kingdom, and Belgium, with Iran being the other. The 27,886 US COVID-19 deaths are also concentrated. There were 10,834 in New York, which is 39% of the total in the US. New Jersey accounted for 10% (2,805). Two other states, Michigan and Louisiana, had over 1,000 deaths. COVID-19 deaths data were compiled by worldometer on April 15.
COVID-19 Cases by Country
While the most COVID-19 cases to date have been reported in the US, European countries have the highest ratio of cases per capita, as shown in these two horizontal bar charts. Data are from Johns Hopkins Coronavirus COVID-19 Global Cases report and are as of April 9.
CARES Act $2T Stimulus Bill
While individuals receive the largest share of the package, loans to large companies is the largest segment at $425B or 21% of the total, as shown in this Marimekko chart. The bulk of relief to individuals will come in cash payments ($300B) and extra unemployment benefits ($260B). Other large amounts are for new small business loans ($350B) and aid to state and local governments ($340B).
Global Entertainment Market
Home/mobile accounts for most of the growth in the $100B entertainment market, as shown in the top stacked bar chart. Digital has replaced physical distribution for home/mobile viewers, as shown in the bottom chart. Data are from the Motion Picture Association 2019 Theme Report.
Child Malnutrition Worldwide
Malnutrition affects 29% of school age children worldwide, according to UNICEF. In all regions except South Asia, more are overweight and obese than are underweight, as shown in this Marimekko chart.
Vehicle Buyers by Age
Vehicle buyers are older than the typical American and buyers in 2017 are older than buyers in 2007, as shown in these two 100% stacked bar charts. Americans 55 and over make up 38% of the adult population, but 52% of vehicle buyers. While those 34 and under are 30% of the US adult population, but only 14% of vehicle buyers.
This trend is more pronounced now than a decade ago. The largest changes occurred in vehicle buyers 65 and over and those between 35 and 44. The 65 and over segment grew from 13% to 27% of purchasers. The 35-44 segment shrunk from 29% to 14% of purchasers. Data were compiled by Green Car Congress.
Billionaires and Their Wealth
There were 5% fewer billionaires and total billionaire wealth declined 7% from 2017 to 2018, as shown in these stacked bar charts. The decline in the number of billionaires was greatest in Asia, shrinking from 784 to 677 (14%) and their total wealth went from $2.4T to $2.2T (9%). The number of billionaires went from 821 to 792 in Europe (4%) and their wealth went from $2.3T to $2.2T (7%). In North America, the number of billionaires increased from 727 to 750 (3%), but the total wealth of North American billionaires declined 5% from $3.3T to $3.1T. Data are from the WealthX Billionaire Census 2019.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnataka
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
