1918 saw the rise of a global pandemic that brought huge societal changes. That was a different time and a different, far more deadly, virus. But looking at how two American cities handled the Spanish Flu reveals an important lesson in dealing with our own pandemic. One city stopped the spread. The other created an outbreak.On September 28, 1918, 200,000 people lined Broad Street in Philadelphia for a grand parade to promote Liberty Loans to pay for World War I. Marching in the parade: troops, Boy Scouts, and marching bands led by the famous conductor John Philip Sousa.Hundreds of thousands of people packed together. Despite warnings that the deadly flu was very much active among nearby military camps, city officials and parade planners forged ahead. Within three days, there wasn't a single empty bed in any Philadelphia hospital. Within a week, with health services overwhelmed, the death toll had reached 4,500 people. City leaders closed down Philadelphia. By then it was too late. But during that same timeframe in 1918, a different city took a different approach and was able to "flatten the curve" keeping the number of flu cases low enough that hospitals could deal with them.To understand the position these cities were in, you have to look back at the months leading up to their decision making.The virus that became known as Spanish Flu first appeared in early 1918. Rampant among military bases in both the U.S. and Europe, it spread rapidly as World War I brought opposing armies together in dire conditions.By the summer, the flu had tailed off enough that many health experts believed it was gone for good. But the fall brought a new surge of cases globally. And by September, city leaders across the U.S. knew the flu had begun actively spreading again.St. Louis handled this information very differently than Philadelphia. Within 2 days of detecting active cases, St. Louis leaders had forced closure for schools, churches, and any public gatherings of more than 20 people.The virus still spread throughout St. Louis. But through this "social distancing," the city kept its number of cases low and suffered far fewer casualties than Philadelphia. St. Louis steps a century ago look a lot like those taken after coronavirus cases showed up in Singapore and Hong Kong, where schools and public gatherings were quickly shut down and the virus' spread was slowed down. 2404

Starting January 1, the prices hospitals charge for service will now have to be listed. Just like you see at a restaurant or salon, hospitals will offer up their own menu of services, with the prices of the procedures right next to them. "Transparency helps everybody,” says Kevin Flynn, with Health Advocates. “It eliminates fraud. It eliminates waste." Flynn says although it seems great, the hospital prices can be deceiving. "But for you and me, the person on the street, it doesn't mean a whole lot, Flynn explains. "While the hospital charges a certain price, ultimately it's your insurance company that's setting everything." Flynn says to keep in mind the prices listed don't include you using insurance, co-pays or deductibles. Companies such as Healthcare Bluebook and Fair Price show patients the average in network price of procedures. They compile patients claims data from all over. "What the hospital charges is one thing,” Flynn says. “What the insurance company actually pays is completely different.” So, the next time you need to get a procedure , Flynn recommends calling your insurance company. "It's much better to talk to your insurance company before you go and know approximately what you are going to pay, as opposed to just looking up online of this new thing seeing what the hospital charges," Flynn says. 1355

@Starbucks The police were called because these men hadn’t ordered anything. They were waiting for a friend to show up, who did as they were taken out in handcuffs for doing nothing. All the other white ppl are wondering why it’s never happened to us when we do the same thing. pic.twitter.com/0U4Pzs55Ci— Melissa DePino (@missydepino) April 12, 2018 362

A ferocious winter storm — a "bomb cyclone" — was ripping across Colorado on Wednesday afternoon on its way to the Great Plains and parts of the Midwest, bringing blizzard conditions and a flood threat to a swath of the US.A bomb cyclone happens when there's a rapid pressure drop, with a decrease of at least 24 millibars (which measures atmospheric pressure) over 24 hours known as 396
