Metformin...
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said it has recommended five pharmaceutical firms to voluntarily recall their diabetes drug metformin after the agency found high levels of a possible cancer-causing impurity in some versions of the medication.
The agency said the drugs contained the probable carcinogen N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) beyond acceptable limits in their extended-release formulations alone.
NDMA contamination was responsible for the recall of heartburn drug Zantac sold by Sanofi SA and some generic versions of the treatment last year.
However, the agency said patients should continue taking metformin tablets even after recalls occur until they consult with their health care professional who can prescribe a replacement.
Anarchist...
In total, 786 protesters have been arrested between Thursday and Sunday.
The NYPD arrested people from 10 different states: Connecticut, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Texas and Virginia.
Before the protests began, organizers of certain anarchist groups set out to raise bail money and appoint people who would be responsible to be raising bail money,” Police source.
“They prepared to commit property damage and directed people who were following them that should be done selectively, only in wealthier areas or at high-end stores run by corporate entities.
Or it is just instinct.

Agenda...
Peaceful marches or marches of hate by some?
Who benefits out of the destruction of property?
Why are we letting the violence continue?
Who's agenda is it? Just a thought.
The Bro..
Americans have spoken with their clickers and they’re sick of Chris and Andrew Cuomo show.
Chris Cuomo yuks it up with his governor bro during an almost daily “check-in” since the coronavirus started ravaging New York — and America wants it to stop.
Chris Cuomo has particularly grated with his “frequently silly and un-substantive interviews” with his older brother in which they have fought over who their mother loved more.
The segments have been panned as ratings stunts done for laughs while thousands of New Yorkers died of the coronavirus.
The Cuomos were slammed again last week by Queens lawmaker Eric Ulrich, who is demanding the City Council investigate Gov. Cuomo’s handling of the COVID-19 crisis in nursing homes, where over 5,800 elderly have perished.
Closed...
A chain drug store announced the closures in the wake of protests and looting that began last week. Amid the unrest, businesses in many cities have been broken into and looted.
CVS told USA TODAY it does not have a complete list of the closed stores, due to the developing nature of the situation.
The pharmacy chain confirmed while several stores have sustained damage, no employees were hurt during the protests.
Each closed pharmacy’s phone system has been rerouted to a nearby CVS Pharmacy that is open so all patients will continue to have access to pharmacy care.
Similarly, Amazon is limiting deliveries and shifting routes in some cities rocked by protests.
Target also opted Sunday to close six locations until further notice to protect employees whose safety was compromised by demonstrations.

Shock...
What happens to all those offices sitting eerily empty?
Covid 19 virus isn’t only a short-term problem. Even if we get a vaccine tomorrow, many commuters have found that they like staying home. JPMorgan Chase and Facebook both, prior to this, planning new Manhattan office towers are now saying people can work closer to home or at home.

It has huge implications, too, for restaurants, stores, theater, hotels — all of which depend on business travel and on commuters spending a little extra time in Manhattan. Outer-borough restaurant and retail also depends on residents’ wealth — earned in Manhattan.
Any big change is a shock to the city’s tax system well beyond a few months. For its annual $66 billion in tax revenues, New York depends on high, and high-volume, property, income and sales taxes, all now imperiled. It could see double-digit adjustments, beyond what any one-year federal rescue can cushion.
It’s a shock to the region’s tax system. Just a thought.
