Welcome to the updated version of Key Developments, now published twice a week and expanding beyond just COVID-19 news. Right now, it's still mostly focused on the pandemic, but we're gradually broadening our scope as we move forward. The global situation remains severe: there are over 19.2 million confirmed cases worldwide, with more than 250,000 new infections reported each day. The death toll has surpassed 716,000. In the U.S., there are over 5 million cases and more than 162,000 deaths. The country added over 53,000 new cases in the last 24 hours alone. Brazil is still leading in daily case growth, followed closely by India and Russia. Notably, Brazil’s daily case numbers and death counts are now surpassing those of the U.S. Spain is experiencing a significant resurgence: In #Europe #Spain continues to battle a resurgence of #COVID19 infections. The #CzechRepublic is also struggling. #Poland is seeing some if its highest number of new #coronavirus cases. #Romania is battling a severe 2nd wave. #Germany had over 1,000 new infections yesterday. pic.twitter.com/bYij6XyhKy — Shane Woodford (@WoodfordinDK) August 6, 2020 Forget "follow the money." These days, it's more like "follow the tech companies." If major tech firms are keeping employees working from home well into next year, that speaks volumes about the ongoing risks and uncertainty surrounding the virus. New studies continue to reinforce the idea that the virus can spread through aerosolized particles, which are infectious and can travel through the air. This adds further weight to the importance of ventilation and mask-wearing in indoor spaces.

We have suspected this and now have evidence. — Linsey Marr https://www.threads.net/@linseycmarr (@linseymarr) August 6, 2020 It's not just children who can carry and spread the virus without showing symptoms—adults are also capable of doing so. A recent study from South Korea highlights this, showing that asymptomatic adults can transmit the virus effectively. Researchers have found that embryos express ACE2 genes as early as the second week of development. While it's unclear whether these receptors are present in sufficient quantities to allow infection, this finding raises important questions about the potential risks for fetuses if mothers contract the virus during pregnancy. Scientists at Cambridge and Cal Tech are calling for more research on this topic. Some experts predict that many schools opening in the fall may be forced to close again in October due to rising case numbers. Meanwhile, the NIH is moving forward with phase 3 trials of antibody cocktail treatments, which could offer new hope for treatment options. Moderna’s vaccine, if proven effective, is expected to be affordable—likely cheaper than a typical flu shot. Bulk purchases could make it even more cost-effective, though such large-scale distribution would require millions of doses. In Los Angeles, Mayor Eric Garcetti announced strict measures against illegal gatherings. He said the city will send in police and even cut off water and power to homes hosting large parties, calling them “nightclubs in the hills.†Los Angeles is moving to crack down on illegal parties in big, often rented houses.

One fascinating point is that SARS-CoV-2 seems to confuse the immune system, causing it to overreact in severe cases. This article provides a clear breakdown of what we know—and don’t yet know—about immunity and the virus. In Georgia, school has already started, and students are testing positive and being sent home. Worse, some schools have threatened to suspend students who criticize crowded conditions or stay home to avoid infection. Two students have already been suspended for their online comments. More sports events are being canceled as the situation evolves. The Division III Presidents Council has officially called off all fall championships, signaling a growing trend across the nation.

However, political gridlock is preventing meaningful action. Eviction moratoriums are set to expire soon, putting millions at risk of homelessness. President Trump has suggested issuing an executive order to reduce payroll taxes if a stimulus deal isn't reached.
Test Weight Water Bags are also called water weights, load test water bags, lifting water bags, etc. A weighing water bag is mainly used in ship cranes, shipyard cranes, port cranes, offshore platform cranes, gantry cranes, driving cranes, davits, etc., lifting equipment for load detection. It is more efficient, safer and cheaper to detect than traditional solid weights.
â— High-frequency welding is used to make the DOING Load Testing Water Bags, and its outside is wrapped in high-strength fiber slings.
◠Crane Water Bags are made of high-density composite materials (PVC, TPU) with superior sealing and corrosion resistance. It can be used at -30°C to 70°C, and it will not be unable to use normally due to seasonal changes. The material is reinforced with anti-freezing, anti-oxidation, and anti-ultraviolet properties. It is not affected by seawater, chemicals, agents, oil stains, acid and alkali and aquatic organisms.
â— Water Bags for Weight can be folded during transportation, which greatly reduces space. Simple operation, light weight, small size, economical and practical, and long service life.
