markets UPS President Inside reports Tejashwi reacts to 'insult' of Rabri Devi by Nitish Kumar

RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav has sharply reacted to the manner in which her mother and former Bihar CM Rabri Devi was addressed by Chief Minister and JD(U) president Nitish Kumar a day ago. During a heated debate with women members of the RJD inside the legislative council, the chief minister had pointed towards Rabri Devi, the leader of the opposition, and said in Hindi «her husband installed her when he hit a rough patch». Rabri Devi first became the chief minister in 1997 when her husband Lalu Prasad, the RJD president, had to give up the post following a CBI charge sheet in a fodder scam. Kumar's use of the expression «iske husband» was deemed as insulting and while members of her party opposed the same inside the House, Tejashwi Yadav later told reporters, «It shows the pitiable state of mind of the chief minister who is evidently not fit to run the state».

markets Death Virus reports patient infection symptoms Gene Hackman death case: Details out about the virus that killed the Hollywood legend's wife

Gene Hackman’s spouse, Betsy Arakawa, died from a hantavirus infection, officials in New Mexico have confirmed. Hantavirus, which is present globally, is transmitted through interactions with rodents or their excrement, including urine and feces. It is important to note that the virus is not contagious between humans. While there is no definitive treatment or cure available, seeking prompt medical care can significantly improve the odds of survival. The infection can escalate quickly and become life-threatening. Dr. Sonja Bartolome from UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas explained, “It initially presents like the flu, with symptoms such as body aches and a general feeling of malaise.” She emphasized that early on, distinguishing hantavirus from the flu can be quite challenging. According to the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the virus can lead to a severe and potentially fatal lung condition known as hantavirus pulmonary syndrome. The CDC began monitoring the virus following a significant outbreak in 1993 in the Four Corners area, where Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah converge. Dr. Michelle Harkins, a pulmonologist at the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, noted that a perceptive physician within the Indian Health Service first identified a troubling trend of deaths among previously healthy young patients presenting with cardiopulmonary arrest, which led to the CDC's investigation to find commonalities among these cases.
