China has reported 2,641 new virus cases as it escalates measures to contain the outbreak and reassure an anxious public.The figure is a major drop from the higher numbers in recent days since a broader diagnostic method was implemented. The number of new deaths rose slightly to 143, bringing the total fatalities in mainland China to 1,523. The number of confirmed cases in the country now stands at 66,492. Saturday marks the second day the number of new cases fell since a spike Thursday, when the hardest-hit Hubei province began including clinical diagnoses. People returning to Beijing were told to quarantine themselves for observation. And a team of experts led by the World Health Organization is due to begin its mission in China this weekend. 766
Coronavirus has become a “get out of jail” card for hundreds of low-level inmates across the country, and even hard-timers are seeking their freedom with the argument that it’s not a matter of if but when the deadly illness sweeps through tightly packed populations behind bars.Among those pleading for compassionate release or home detention are the former head of the Cali drug cartel, President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen, Ponzi schemer Bernard Madoff and dozens of inmates at New York City’s Rikers Island, part of a jail system that lost an employee to the virus this week.“He is in poor health. He is 81 years old,” David Markus, the attorney for cocaine kingpin Gilberto Rodriguez-Orejuela, wrote in emergency court papers this week seeking his release after serving about half of a 30-year drug-trafficking sentence. “When (not if) COVID-19 hits his prison, he will not have much of a chance.”While widespread outbreaks of coronavirus behind bars have yet to happen, the frenzy of legal activity underscores a crude reality that’s only beginning to sink in: America’s nearly 7,000 jails, prisons and correction facilities are an ideal breeding ground for the virus, as dangerous as nursing homes and cruise ships but far less sanitary.Stepped-up cleanings and a temporary halt to visitations at many lockups across the country in the midst of the crisis can’t make up for the fact that ventilation behind bars is often poor, inmates sleep in close quarters and share a small number of bathrooms.“Simply put, it’s impossible to do social distancing,” said David S. Weinstein, a former federal prosecutor in Miami.The 81-year-old Madoff, who is serving a 150-year sentence for bilking thousands of investors in a .5 billion Ponzi scheme, had just asked last month to be released early in light of his terminal kidney disease. Now his attorney is calling on all at-risk federal prisoners to be released for their own safety because of the coronavirus.“The federal prison system has consistently shown an inability to respond to major crises,” Madoff attorney Brandon Sample told The Associated Press. “My concerns are even more amplified for prisoners at federal medical centers and those who are aged.”Prosecutors argued against Rodriguez-Orejuela’s emergency request and noted that the federal prison in Butner, North Carolina, where both he and Madoff are being held has not had any staff or inmates diagnosed with the virus, and staff are being screened upon entry.It’s not just attorneys for the wealthy and powerful seeking release.In New York, public defenders asked judges to release older and at-risk inmates from the city’s beleaguered federal jails, saying pretrial confinement “creates the ideal environment for the transmission of contagious disease.” The motions cite a provision of the Bail Reform Act allowing for the temporary release of pretrial inmates under “compelling” circumstances.“I truly believe the jails are ticking time bombs,” said David Patton, executive director of the Federal Defenders of New York. “They’re overcrowded and unsanitary in the best of times. They don’t provide appropriate medical care in the best of times, and these certainly are not the best of times.”Some authorities around the nation appear to agree. Police departments are incarcerating fewer people, prosecutors are letting non-violent offenders out early and judges are postponing or finding alternatives to jail sentences.In Los Angeles, the nation’s largest jail system has trimmed its population by more than 600 since Feb. 28, allowing many inmates with fewer than 30 days left on their sentences to be released early. In Cleveland, judges held a special session over the weekend to settle cases with guilty pleas and release more than 200 low-level, non-violent inmates. And in Miami, the top state attorney has urged the release of all non-violent felons and those being held on misdemeanors.“No judge wants to have a dead prisoner on his conscience,” said Bill Breeze, a Miami defense attorney.New York City’s Board of Correction this week called for the immediate release of all high-risk inmates after an an investigator assigned to the jail system died over the weekend of the coronavirus. The 56-year-old man was said to have a pre-existing health condition and only limited contact with inmates. The city’s jail system has about 8,000 inmates, most at notorious Rikers Island.In this 2018 file photo, inmates pass the time within their cell block at the Twin Falls County Jail in Twin Falls, Idaho.However, accommodating the surge of requests poses its own challenge. Courts around the country are shutting down, with only a skeletal staff working. The chief federal judge in Brooklyn on Monday postponed indefinitely all criminal and civil jury trials, encouraging judges to conduct court business via telephone or video conferencing when possible, and to delay in-person proceedings.Prosecutors said in court filings that the Federal Bureau of Prisons has been planning for the outbreak since January, including by establishing a task force with experts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The BOP on Friday suspended visitation for all federal inmates, facility transfers, staff travel and training for 30 days. Newly arriving inmates are being screened for COVID-19, and even asymptomatic inmates deemed to be at risk are being quarantined. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced that they would take similar steps.Public health officials stress that older people and those with existing health problems are most at risk from coronavirus but that the vast majority of people will only suffer mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough, with recovery in a matter of weeks.But such assurances are small solace for inmates.The Twitter account of Michael Cohen, Trump’s former attorney who is serving a three-year sentence for crimes including tax evasion and campaign finance violations, shared over the weekend an online petition seeking the transfer of non-violent federal prisoners to home confinement. Addressed specifically to Trump, it argues the move would “give the prison facilities additional (and much needed) medical triage and logistic space for those who will become infected.”“Without your intervention, scores of non-violent offenders are at risk of death,” it reads, “and these people were not given a death sentence.”___Goodman reported from Miami.

DENVER, Colo. – Welcome to the world of tattoos. Body art is one of the most popular forms of self-expression and the tattoo industry has evolved throughout the years.The country has become more open to those with tattoos. The Pew Research Center reported nearly four in ten millennials ages 18 to 29 has a tattoo. Half of those have between two and five pieces.The Pew Research Center also reported 40 percent of those between the ages 40 to 54 years old to have a tattoo as well.With how popular tattoos are, there have been a lot of recent articles and news challenging if tattoos are safe, and both sides of the issue want those who are considering a tattoo to be educating before making the decision.“I’ve been tattooing for 12 years,” said Matt Sager, the owner of Think Tank South in Littleton, Colorado. “Tattoos are more mainstreamed now, and you got a lot of really good shops now-a-days. At this shop, we take it pretty serious and have a pretty high-quality standard for how clean it is around here and the overall quality of tattoos that we are doing.”When it comes to safety, Sager says it’s hard to find a tattoo shop that doesn’t put cleanliness in top priority.“We get inspections by the tri-county health department,” Sager said.Sager also said shops like his monitor bad ink recalled from the Federal Drug Administration.“Before we start any tattoo, we log and document what batch they came from, what expiration dates they have, so we can track back everything to the company if there was an issue with the ink.”Some of the risks he’s aware of and thinks customers should be aware of is allergic reactions when getting a tattoo.“Everybody is different, everybody has a different type of allergy and reactions they can come across, and some people don’t have any,” Sager said. “Some of our clients who are more prone to being allergic to stuff that come in, we will do a simple skin test where we’ll take certain colors that we would use on their tattoo. We place it on their skin, wrap it with plastic, and see if it creates any redness or swelling.”According to Haley Snadecki, a dermatologist, red ink is a common allergy when it comes to tattoos.“Cinnabar, which is not so commonly used anymore, is a composed of mercuric sulfide and that can cause an allergy,” Snadecki said. “There’s both red and yellow tattoo compounds that can cause a photo-allergic-reactions. So, when you’re exposed to the sun you can get an allergy and the tattoo can raise off the skin.Snadecki said clients should do some research about their own bodies and skins before making the decision to get a tattoo. She said if someone is prone to scarring, the tattoo could be problematic.“Because a tattoo is an open wound on your skin, it could heal abnormally for those who are prone to scarring. It could form a keloid scar which is basically your body forming a bigger scar.”In rare cases, doctors have discovered black tattoo ink in swollen lymph glands thinking it was cancer.“Because it’s taken by an immune cell, it can travel through the lymph system to your lymph nodes,” Snadeck said. “It can be problematic when it comes to a diagnosis. In the cases I’ve seen, it was confusing for the doctors who took a test of that lymph node and saw black pigment which could be melanin made by melanoma versus ink from a tattoo. That could confuse the picture for a doctor developing a diagnosis.”As for Sager, he said the biggest risk he’s seen is people not taking care of their tattoos after it’s fresh. “Yeah it’s an open wound,” Sager said. “Anything you come into contact with can affect the healing process. We advise people not to go swimming or go to the gym while it’s healing since those places can be dirty.”According to Mayo Clinic, this is what you should do when taking care of your tattoo:Take good care of your tattooHow you care for your new tattoo depends on the type and extent of work done. Typically, however, you'll need to:Keep the tattooed skin clean. Use plain soap and water and a gentle touch. While showering, avoid direct streams of water on the newly tattooed skin. Pat — don't rub — the area dry. Use moisturizer. Apply a mild moisturizer to the tattooed skin several times a day. Avoid sun exposure. Keep the tattooed area out of the sun for at least a few weeks. Avoid swimming. Stay out of pools, hot tubs, rivers, lakes and other bodies of water while your tattoo is healing. Choose clothing carefully. Don't wear anything that might stick to the tattoo. Allow up to 2 weeks for healing. Don't pick at any scabs, which increases the risk of infection and can damage the design and cause scarring.If you think your tattoo might be infected or you're concerned that your tattoo isn't healing properly, contact your doctor. If your tattoo isn't what you expected and you're interested in tattoo removal, ask your dermatologist about laser surgery or other options for tattoo removal.According to Mayo Clinic, this what you should know before getting your tattoo:Know the risksTattoos breach the skin, which means that skin infections and other complications are possible, including:Allergic reactions. Tattoo dyes — especially red, green, yellow and blue dyes — can cause allergic skin reactions, such as an itchy rash at the tattoo site. This can occur even years after you get the tattoo. Skin infections. A skin infection is possible after tattooing. Other skin problems. Sometimes an area of inflammation called a granuloma can form around tattoo ink. Tattooing also can lead to keloids — raised areas caused by an overgrowth of scar tissue. Bloodborne diseases. If the equipment used to create your tattoo is contaminated with infected blood, you can contract various bloodborne diseases — including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), hepatitis B and hepatitis C. MRI complications. Rarely, tattoos or permanent makeup might cause swelling or burning in the affected areas during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exams. In some cases, tattoo pigments can interfere with the quality of the image.Medication or other treatment might be needed if you experience an allergic reaction to the tattoo ink or you develop an infection or other skin problem near a tattoo. 6224
Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is facing another lawsuit over the department's loan forgiveness program aimed at helping defrauded students.More than 150,000 applications are pending, and some borrowers have been waiting years to hear whether they'll be granted debt relief. Seven borrowers, all of whom attended for-profit colleges, filed the lawsuit Tuesday."Department officials have not offered a timetable for reviewing these applications. It's becoming very clear that they're not treating them in good faith," said Eileen Connor, legal director at the Project on Predatory Student Lending, which filed the case on behalf of the seven borrowers.The department stopped processing claims under DeVos, who wants to rewrite the Obama-era rule that allows defrauded students to seek loan forgiveness.But a federal judge -- siding with Democratic attorneys general from 18 states and the District of Columbia -- ruled that DeVos' freeze was "arbitrary and capricious" and ordered immediate implementation of the rule in October.Still, the department did not process any more claims through the end of last year, according to the latest data available, and Connor says there's been no indication that it has started to review them again.The Department of Education did not immediately respond to a request for comment.DeVos has called the rule, known as Borrower Defense to Repayment, "bad policy." She's proposed offering partial loan forgiveness for qualifying students instead, based on the income of their peers who attended similar programs at other colleges. The plan would save the government .7 billion over a 10-year period compared with the Obama version, the department said.Department officials have argued that they cannot process claims while another lawsuit is ongoing. The agency was also sued over the proposal to offer partial forgiveness."Until we have clear direction from the court, or a different methodology that we think doesn't run the same challenges -- yes, we are in a holding pattern for students that are probably eligible for partial relief," said Diane Auer Jones, principal deputy under secretary, at an event at the 2165
