Flu season is upon us, and this year public health leaders predict it could be severe. The best way to protect yourself is to get vaccinated, says the CDC. However, the flu shot effectiveness has been a question in previous years. Now, a group of a researchers are working on a vaccine that works better and longer. For the last five and a half years, Amy Aspelund has literally been living with the flu virus. She’s part of a group of researchers at Vivaldi Biosciences’ laboratory who are growing the flu virus and then killing it. Their search for a universal flu vaccine has already shown increased protection in ferrets."So, this is a very promising technology,” says Aspelund. “We just have to get it into humans; find out if that translates into people."According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, getting the flu shot reduces the risk of illness by 40 to 60 percent. However, that's only when scientist accurately predict which strains will affect people most. Over the last 15 flu seasons, it's only been a good match on average of about 44 percent. Last year about 40 million people got the flu, and the CDC estimates at least 36,000 people died from flu-related illnesses.In 2009, the H1N1 virus caused the first global influenza pandemic in more than 40 years.“Yeah, I think that is a big part of it.” Aspelund says. “The seasonal is certainly an issue and a problem. We have plenty of loss of life and health.”It's why companies like Vivaldi Biosciences, Inc. and more than a dozen others are on the quest for a vaccine with broader protection. And though not everyone thinks a universal vaccine is practical, scientists like Aspelund believe it is, and she hopes it can become a reality within the next five years. 1757

House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff is scrapping a Wednesday morning meeting intended to take an "enforcement action" against the Justice Department after it agreed to begin providing the committee with counterintelligence documents from special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation.The decision to postpone the business meeting -- where Schiff was threatened to take an unspecified action against Attorney General William Barr for not complying with the committee's subpoena for Mueller's counterintelligence materials -- is a rare sign of the Trump administration and a House panel successfully negotiating around a Democratic subpoena for documents.Schiff had issued a subpoena for all of Mueller's counterintelligence materials, but he had proposed that the Justice Department begin the effort by providing 12 specific sets of counterintelligence materials that were referenced in the Mueller report. The Justice Department wrote in a letter to Schiff Tuesday that it was continuing to review the initial tranche of 12 categories of documents Schiff wanted and would make them available "in relatively short order," so long as he didn't move forward with an action holding Barr in contempt of Congress."The Department of Justice has accepted our offer of a first step towards compliance with our subpoena, and this week will begin turning over to the Committee twelve categories of counterintelligence and foreign intelligence materials as part of an initial rolling production. That initial production should be completed by the end of next week," Schiff said in a statement Wednesday morning."As a result of the Department's acceptance, the business meeting has been postponed," Schiff added. "The Committee's subpoena will remain in effect, and will be enforced should the Department fail to comply with the full document request. The Department has repeatedly acknowledged the Committee's legitimate oversight interest in these materials. I look forward to, and expect, continued compliance by the Department so we can do our vital oversight work." 2074

For hours, bullets flew and gunpowder wafted through the streets of North Philadelphia.Police officers trying to serve a narcotics warrant entered a row house in the Nicetown-Tioga neighborhood Wednesday afternoon. As they got toward the kitchen area, a man fired multiple rounds, forcing some officers to escape through the window, authorities said.But others got trapped in the house with the gunman after he barricaded himself. As he traded gunfire with officers outside, bullets ricocheted on the pavement, sending them crouching behind police cars.By the time the suspect was in custody nearly eight hours later, six officers were wounded. Police announced his arrest with a single tweet shortly after midnight Thursday."We're thankful. A little angry about someone having all that weaponry and all that firepower, but we'll get to that another day," Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney said at a news conference. "It's about the officers and their families right now."Three hours after the first shotsThe shooting started about 4:30 p.m. after officers entered the home. More than three hours after the first shots, the suspect showed no signs of surrendering, police said.Temple University's Health Sciences Center campus was put on lockdown briefly as police secured the area. Concern grew for two officers trapped in the house with the gunman as police cars and officers in tactical gear swarmed the neighborhood."We've got a pretty horrible situation unfolding, and you hear me say unfolding because it is not resolved," Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross said at the time.Negotiators tried to communicate with the suspect, but he was picking up the phone and not responding, Ross said. The suspect's attorney joined a phone call to reassure him police won't harm him, authorities said.Five hours after the first shotsAs the sun set and the standoff dragged on, the mayor said he was listening to police radio transmissions. Officers in the house were whispering because they didn't want the shooter to hear them, he said.Five hours after the standoff started, a SWAT team rescued two officers and three others trapped inside the row house, the police commissioner said. CNN affiliate KYW reported the officers were trapped on the second floor while the shooter was on the first floor."They were able to use stealth to do it," the mayor said. He said the shooter appeared unaware of the rescue mission.Eight hours after the first shotsShortly after midnight, authorities announced the suspect's capture.All six officers suffered injuries that are not life threatening and have been released from an area hospital, police said.The Philadelphia mayor called out the NRA and demanded a resolution to the nation's gun crisis, saying officers need help keeping numerous weapons out of criminals' hands."Our officers deserve to be protected and they don't deserve to be shot at by a guy for hours with an unlimited supply of weapons and an unlimited supply of bullets. It's disgusting and we got to do something about it ... quickly," the mayor said. "This government, both on federal and state level, don't want to do anything about getting these guns off the streets and getting them out of the hands of criminals." 3238
