LOS ANGELES (AP) -- California's overwhelmed hospitals are setting up makeshift extra beds for coronavirus patients, and a handful of facilities in hard-hit Los Angeles County are drawing up emergency plans in case they have to limit how many people receive life-saving care.The number of people hospitalized across California with confirmed COVID-19 infections is more than double the state's previous peak, reached in July.A state model forecasts the total could hit 75,000 patients by mid-January.Dr. Christina Ghaly, Los Angeles County's health services director, said plans for rationing care are not in place yet, but they need to be established because "the worst is yet to come." 695

LOS ANGELES (CNS) - Newly published research indicates there's an almost one-in-four chance the mountain lions living in the Santa Monica and Santa Ana mountains could become extinct in those areas within 50 years as a result of urban encroachment, inbreeding, vehicle strikes, rat poison and wildfire, it was reported today.In the face of such a dire prognosis, what biologists call an extinction vortex, conservationists are considering a desperate and controversial remedy: capturing pumas in one part of the Santa Anas and trucking them across the 15 Freeway so that they can breed with isolated mates on the other side of traffic."Wildlife managers never want to be a shuttle service for wild animals,'' said Justin Dellinger, senior environmental scientist with the Wildlife Investigations Laboratory at the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Los Angeles Times reported. But translocation has potential merit in the short term; after all it helped bring the critically endangered Florida panther back from the brink.Mountain lions are not endangered in California, but groups living in the Santa Monica and Santa Ana ranges now find themselves in genetic peril. Separated by freeways and lethal traffic, they are unable to range freely and are growing increasingly inbred, researchers say.In the Santa Monica Mountains, the 101 Freeway exists as a near impenetrable barrier to gene flow for a group of 10 mountain lions; in the Santa Ana Mountains, the 15 Freeway limits the movement of a family of 20 cougars.Sometimes, the animals manage to cross freeways without getting hit. At least seven cougars have crossed the 15 Freeway near Temecula in the last 15 years, and one sired 11 kittens. The fact that only one managed to reproduce, however, shows how difficult it is to diversify the gene pool in the lions still prowling the range.A population viability study published in the journal Ecological Applications predicts extinction probabilities of 16 to 28 percent over the next 50 years for these lions, which have the lowest genetic diversity documented for the specie aside from the critically endangered Florida panther.Study authors note also that wildfire and disease could result in "catastrophic mortality'' and further hasten the animals' disappearance.However, extinction probabilities were significantly reduced when computer models simulated the influence of two immigrant lions per year in areas blocked by development and freeways, according to a team of researchers that included Winston Vickers, an associate veterinarian at the UC Davis Karen C. Drayer Wildlife Health Center, and Seth Riley, an ecologist with the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, The Times reported. 2731

LOS ANGELES – Divorce is rarely easy and the process has been made even more complicated during the pandemic.“It’s a really hard thing to do alone," said Bob Vona, founder and CEO of Vesta. "Through COVID, it makes it tremendously more difficult because all the other stressors and burdens of losing jobs or dealing with kids at home 24 hours a day, educating them.”Vesta: A New Vision for Divorce was created to empower people to make sound, rational and healthy decisions before signing on the dotted line of their divorce, says Vona. Vona and his two co-founders have all been impacted by the many hardships of divorce, with one founder spending over 0,000 in legal fees during her five-year divorce. “Most people are not prepared for divorce," said Vona.With hubs around the country, Vesta divorce professionals provide free education. The teams are made up of attorneys, realtors, financial advisors, therapists, and divorce and parenting coaches."It impacted negatively every single aspect in my life, financially, certainly emotionally – I mean, the process almost broke me," said Nikki Bruno, who went through a divorce five years ago.While Bruno knew divorce would be difficult, she never imagined the extent of pain and trauma it would bring for the next three years. “It’s a financial process, a business deal, it’s a legal process, it’s an emotional process," said Bruno.But after attending a Vesta event, Bruno says she finally didn't feel so alone. "The primary emotion was I felt relieved. And I also felt a little bit more grounded and a little bit more powerful because of the information," said Bruno. The vetted professionals pay a fee to be on the Vesta team, allowing attendees to attend the events free of charge. Many end up hiring a professional that fits their needs.Vesta moved its platform online during the pandemic and has seen a spike in clients; 4,500 so far, compared to 1,500 this time last year. Vesta has hubs in Massachusetts, Southern California, Rhode Island and most recently, Scottsdale, Arizona. The company has plans to create additional hubs in Philadelphia and Long Island. “Attorneys from coast to coast, Massachusetts to California, are estimating that if you’re going through a divorce right now, and brand new to the separation process, it’s a minimum of two years before you’re going to get through the divorce process," said Vona. But Vona says couples don't have to wait for the courts to begin their divorce and that Vesta professionals are helping couples begin the process through agreements. Bruno’s divorce inspired her to switch career paths, pivoting from a leadership coach to a divorce and empowerment coach. Through her program, The Epic Comeback, Bruno helps provide a comeback path to people sidelined by divorce, illness or loss.She says divorce doesn’t define a person and with work, it’s possible to come out better on the other side.“Like it or not, divorce is an opportunity. It's an opportunity to start over," said Bruno. 3002

LOS ANGELES (AP) — California environmental officials say a popular agricultural pesticide they say has been linked to brain damage in children will be banned after next year under an agreement reached with its manufacturer.Under the deal announced Wednesday, all California sales of chlorpyrifos will end on Feb. 6, 2020.Farmers will have until the end of 2020 to exhaust their supplies.The pesticide is used on numerous crops in the nation's largest agriculture-producing state, including alfalfa, almonds, citrus, cotton, grapes and walnuts.State regulators say the pesticide has been linked to health defects in children, including brain impairment.Officials say they are budgeting million to help manufacturers develop a safer alternative.The pesticide's manufacturer, Corteva Agriscience, says it reached the agreement "in the best interests of the affected growers." 884
