2…………> Trump Keeps Promises: Signs New Order To Slash Drug Prices

.
President Trump’s tweet, later posted on the White House website, clarified that the Medicare system for over-65s would pay no more for drugs than in any other developed nation, hence a new executive order aimed at cutting high medicine prices for seniors was signed: 

“My Most Favored Nation order will ensure that our Country gets the same low price Big Pharma gives to other countries”, Mr. Trump tweeted first.

“The days of global freeriding at America’s expense are over and prices are coming down FAST! Also just ended all rebates to middlemen, further reducing prices.”

“Americans pay more per capita for prescription drugs than residents of any other developed country in the world,” reads the preamble of the order.

“It is unacceptable that Americans pay more for the exact same drugs, often made in the exact same places.”
“Other countries’ governments regulate drug prices by negotiating with drug manufacturers to secure bargain prices, leaving Americans to make up the difference — effectively subsidizing innovation and lower-cost drugs for the rest of the world,” it said.

..

The traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) preparation, like lung cleansing and detoxifying preparation, used during China’s epidemic outbreak, has been  applied in various countries including Italy, Britain, the United States, Japan and Malaysia, with positive results, said Wang Wei, deputy head of the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.

Zhang Boli, president of the Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said Lianhua Qingwen capsules and granules, another recommended TCM for the treatment of COVID-19, has received marketing approval in more than 10 countries and regions and has been donated to several other countries:

“We are working with the University of Southern California on phase-two clinical trials of lung diffusing and detoxifying preparation,” Zhang said.

“They are paying close attention to the medicine and the experiment results we have achieved.”

5…………> First COVID-19: Next, Asteroid To Intersect Earth’s Orbit?

.

A space rock over 300 feet wide, code-named Asteroid 2014 QJ33, closely watched by NASA, is expected to enter Earth’s orbit on 17 September, at a speed of around 19,371 miles per hour, larger in size that the London Bridge, and hopefully, it is set to fly by our celestial paradise surface a safe distance – at least 1,592,819 miles away.

The giant Apollo asteroid – classified under the category of a Near Earth Object (NEO), which according to NASA’s classification, refers to any comet or asteroid that flies by our planet within 1.3 astronomical units (AU) – one AU is the average distance between Earth and the Sun.

A NEO is also a term used to describe “comets and asteroids that have been nudged by the gravitational attraction of nearby planets into orbits that allow them to enter the Earth’s space domain.”

Although the matter has historically attracted quite a few biblical end-of-the-world speculations, Earth hasn’t seen an asteroid of apocalyptic scale since the space rock that wiped out the dinosaurs 66 million years ago.

The majority of tracked asteroids don’t come into direct contact with Earth’s atmosphere, but in rare instances the giant space bodies can interrupt the work of weather systems.
