Horseshoe crabs are prehistoric creatures that predate the dinosaurs, but pharmaceutical companies depend on them to this day for their unique blue blood.The crabs’ blood is hypersensitive to endotoxins, making it the perfect testing ground to see if a coronavirus vaccine is harmful to people."The fact that we rely so much on these really primitive creatures that predate the dinosaurs," said Barbara Brummer, the state director of The Nature Conservancy in New Jersey.From Massachusetts to South Carolina, the crabs are collected and taken to laboratories. But one of their largest breeding grounds is right in New Jersey, in the Delaware Bay."The concern is the population of horseshoe crabs in the Delaware Bay has been declining over the years," said Brummer. "They are needed for the ecological value they bring for shorebirds.”Shorebirds rely on the crabs' millions of eggs for food.New Jersey fishermen are banned from using the crabs for bait. But pharmaceutical companies remove about a half-million horseshoe crabs from the ocean every year.In the labs, about one-third of a crab's blood is removed for testing. If the crab's blue blood clots up, the medicine is no good.The crabs are then returned to the ocean.However, a study by the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission estimates about 15% of the crabs do not survive."There is an alternative test," Brummer said. "They have created a test that does not involve the bleeding of the crabs. It is a synthetic material."The synthetic test has been approved in Europe but has not yet been approved in the United States.This story was first reported by Christie Duffy at PIX11 in New York, New York. 1674

HONOLULU (AP) — Intense turbulence struck an Air Canada flight to Australia on Thursday and sent unbuckled passengers flying into the ceiling, forcing the plane to land in Hawaii.The flight from Vancouver to Sydney encountered "un-forecasted and sudden turbulence," about two hours past Hawaii when the plane diverted to Honolulu, Air Canada spokeswoman Angela Mah said in a statement."The plane just dropped," passenger Stephanie Beam told The Associated Press. "When we hit turbulence, I woke up and looked over to make sure my kids were buckled. The next thing I knew there's just literally bodies on the ceiling of the plane."A woman behind her hit the ceiling so hard that she broke the casing of an oxygen mask, said Beam, of Colorado Springs, Colorado.Of the 37 passengers and flight crew members injured, nine had serious injuries, emergency responders said. Thirty people were taken to hospitals.Honolulu Emergency Medical Services Chief Dean Nakano said the injured ranged in age from children to the elderly. Customs agents and emergency responders met passengers at the gate at the Honolulu airport to ensure they could get medical attention quickly.Honolulu Emergency Services Department spokeswoman Shayne Enright said injuries included cuts, bumps, bruises, neck pain and back pain. More than two dozen people were taken to hospitals, she said."I watched a whole bunch of people hit the ceiling of the plane," said another passenger Alex MacDonald. "A couple of the air hostesses were bringing food out at the time, and they hit the roof as well."Passenger Luke Wheeldon told Honolulu news station KTIV about half the passengers weren't wearing seatbelts."There was no warning and then half of them, their head hit the roof all at once," he said. "And I went, 'Oh, this is a bad day.'"Babies and children were crying as crew members went through the cabin assessing injuries. About 15 minutes later, there was an announcement asking for passengers who are medical professionals to help, Beam said.The turbulence happened at 36,000 feet (10,973 meters) about 600 miles (966 kilometers) southwest of Honolulu, said U.S. Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor.The Boeing 777-200 was carrying 269 passengers and 15 crew members, according to Air Canada spokesman Peter Fitzpatrick.Air Canada was arranging hotel accommodations and meals in Honolulu and options for resuming the flight."If we're going to be stuck somewhere, I can think of worse places," said Beam, traveling with her 10- and 11-year-old children. 2546

Growing mental health issues among college students were already a concern. Now, schools are preparing for what comes next in the fall, because of both the pandemic and also the renewed attention on racism in our country.About 24% of college students were diagnosed with or treated for anxiety problems last year, according to a study by the American College Health Association. That's up from about 10% a decade earlier. It's a similar trend among the number of students diagnosed with or treated for depression.“We're expecting those statistics to really skyrocket in terms of students just feeling a lot of fear, a lot of uncertainty, a lot of anxiety, a lot of despair with what has been going on and what things look like perhaps for them,” said Dr. Joy Himmel, an American College Health Association fellow.Himmel is a member of the COVID-19 task force for the American College Health Association. She says schools have already shifted to doing more remote telehealth sessions for mental health. But it has been a challenge in some places because of licensing across state lines.A lot of states have done waivers to allow this. Himmel is concerned about when states of emergency are lifted, and these waivers won't be there anymore. She says it will also be important to focus particularly on freshmen.“One of the things that I think builds camaraderie, builds enthusiasm and energy for students is that bonding with fellow students,” said Himmel. “We're very social in terms of our humanness and we need each other and so it's very important to really look at physical distancing, not social distancing and create social caveats for students to connect.”Counseling staff at Howard University tell the Wall Street Journal they're planning an online program for first year students to address this issue of a freshman year without the typical experiences.Counseling staff members at Tulsa Community College say they're doing trauma training now to be prepared to help students.At Pace University, they've been doing online mental wellness workshops for students. 2075

Given the COVID-19 pandemic, an economic downturn, and months of civil unrest, it may be tough to find someone who wants to be forever associated with the year 2020.But Time Magazine has to pick someone to be its "Person of the Year."On Thursday, Time announced President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris its pick for its famed "Person of the Year" profile. On Thursday morning, the magazine announced that there were four people on its "shortlist": President-elect Joe Biden, President Donald Trump, Dr. Anthony Fauci and "frontline health care workers" and the "movement for racial justice."Time also named its picks for "Athlete of the Year" and "Entertainer of the Year" on Thursday.Time selected LeBron James as 2020's Athlete of the Year. James won his fourth NBA championship in 2020 — his first with the Los Angeles Lakers — to conclude the league's pandemic-shortened season, which finished in a "bubble" format. James also continued to publicly speak out against racial injustice and became a political touchstone throughout the year, regularly sharing his political views on social media. He also organized the voter registration of thousands of urban voters ahead of the 2020 election.Korean pop ban BTS was named by Time as the 2020 Entertainers of the Year. The seven-member band has broken streaming records around the world and helped K-pop go mainstream in the U.S. and around the world.Time has selected a "Person of the Year" each year since 1927. According to the magazine, the "Person of the Year" is "usually an individual but sometimes multiple people who greatly impacted the country and world during the calendar year."Biden would appear to have a leg up over other semifinalists. In election years dating back to 1992, the winner of the presidential election has been selected as Time's "Person of the Year." Every president dating back to President Franklin Roosevelt has been named "Person of the Year" at some point in their administration.Teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg was named Time's "Person of the Year" in 2019 — a decision that irked Trump to the point that he criticized Thunberg on Twitter. Other recent winners include "The Guardians" — journalists who faced persecution for their reporting (2018), "The Silence Breakers" — women who came forward to report sexual assault allegations against powerful men (2017), and Trump (2016). 2408
