Safety Caps for screwing up the American lives with foolish spending stunts. Just a thought.
Delay..
The city’s response times to medical emergencies have surged to alarming levels in the last month with EMS workers arriving too late to save many dying patients, The Post has learned.
Overwhelmed with coronavirus cases, EMS response times have doubled in the Bronx, Queens, etc. to an excruciating 24 minutes and 55 seconds in March from the month before.
“Some "tax payers for this service" people who could have been saved may die,” an EMS insider said.
The City politicians continue rezone areas of Brooklyn, Queens, etc for building more towers, on an aging roads, swear system, narrow roads, continue digging street to fix water, gas, swear and cables underground pipes.
Ambulances, fire apparatus and police vehicles are struggling to respond to an emergencies.

Sotrovimab..
For more than a year antibody drugs from Regeneron and Eli Lilly have been the go-to treatments for early COVID-19, thanks to their ability to head off severe disease and keep patients out of the hospital.
But both drugmakers recently warned that laboratory testing suggests their therapies will be much less potent against omicron.
A third antibody from British drugmaker GlaxoSmithKline appears to be the best positioned to fight omicron. But Glaxo’s drug is not widely available in the U.S.,
Glaxo’s drug, was specifically formulated to bind to a part of the virus that is less likely to mutate, according to the companies. Early studies of laboratory-simulated omicron by the drugmakers and outside researchers show promising results.
After pausing distribution last month to conserve supply, HHS is now shipping 55,000 doses of the drug, called sotrovimab, to state health departments, with the doses arriving as early as Tuesday. An additional 300,000 are expected in January.
HHS recommends states conserve the drug for the highest risk patients which include seniors and those with serious health problems, such as obesity, heart disease, diabetes and immune-system disorders.
We all need less fear, and more optimism at this time. Many things have changed since last year. Just an Optimist" thought.
Lockdown..
The Netherlands on Sunday began an “unavoidable” lockdown that will last through Christmas to help tackle a COVID-19 surge caused by the emergence of the Omicron variant.
Prime Minister Mark Rutte announced the shut-down on Saturday evening, ordering most essential stores, as well as restaurants, hairdressers, gyms, museums and other public places to close until at least Jan. 14.
“The Netherlands is again shutting down. That is unavoidable because of the fifth wave that is coming at us with the Omicron variant,” Rutte said at a news conference.
Under the rules, people are urged to stay home as much as possible and households are only permitted to have two guests at a time.
Rutte acknowledged that the lockdown will interfere with holiday plans and business. Just a thought.
Handout...
Much of Manchin's public opposition to the size and scope of the package centers on its investment in landmark social programs child tax credits, a new federal paid family leave program and lower-cost child care.
Manchin's reasoning:
Manchin's reasoning:
“I don’t believe that we should turn our society into an entitlement society.”
The senator has been adamant about “no additional handouts,” as he wrote in his memo. He wants many of the social services programs “means tested” to apply only to those at lower-income thresholds.
The senator has been adamant about “no additional handouts,” as he wrote in his memo. He wants many of the social services programs “means tested” to apply only to those at lower-income thresholds.
As a result, the new paid family and medical leave program that Democrats overwhelmingly want could be gutted completely, dashing their hopes of taking the U.S. off the list of remaining countries without any form of national paid leave.
The most recent debate centers around extending the child tax credit, passed earlier this year as part of pandemic relief legislation. The program, a keystone of Democratic efforts to reduce child poverty, has been sending up to $300 per child directly into the bank accounts of families each month.
Manchin now says he wants the child tax credit program extended for the full 10-year budget window, rather than just one year a nonstarter since the price tag would consume most of Biden's bill, crowding out other key initiatives on health care, child care, education and more.

Is Joe Manchin the only Democratic Senator in opposition to Biden's Agenda? I think many more. But for now, they don't want to take the heat. Just a thought.
Ban..ana's..
Bananas are a staple within longevity category,
offering a variety of health benefits that can shift according to ripeness:
- Green, or less ripe, bananas contain resistant starch and pectins, which function as prebiotics in the gut.
- Yellow bananas lose some of this starch as it turns into simple sugars (that's why ripe bananas are sweeter). They also contain soluble and insoluble fibers, with about 3 grams per medium banana.
- Lastly, brown bananas contain the highest amount of simple sugars (most of their starch has converted to sugars); they also boast the highest levels of antioxidants.
Nutrition facts aside, the biggest reason to appreciates bananas is because, well, they're convenient. “They come in their own packaging!."
Bananas are affordable, enjoyable, and accessible. "The best longevity food is the food you're going to eat," so if you have a thing for bananas? Consider them your No. 1 longevity-supporting snack
