Multistate hunt for antivenom after exotic snake attacks Michigan manA snake bite forced doctors to frantically call zoos and venom response programs across the country in search of antivenom medicine. A 26-year-old man who was bit by a cobra did not respond to the generic antivenom medicine he was initially provided at a Michigan-area hospital, before being airlifted to Detroit. As his respiratory muscles became paralysed, doctors reportedly scrambled to locate a serum that would neutralize the rare snake venom coursing through his body.

Bernie Sanders calls study projecting trillion dollar costs for universal healthcare 'grossly misleading'

Posted: 30 Jul 2018 06:55 PM PDT

Bernie Sanders calls study projecting trillion dollar costs for universal healthcare 'grossly misleading'"This grossly misleading and biased report is the Koch brothers response to the growing support in our country for a 'Medicare for all' program," the veteran Vermont senator said. The Mercatus Center at George Mason University published the study earlier this week with projections on Mr Sanders' single-payer health care program that guarantees health care coverage to all Americans. "Doubling all currently projected federal individual and corporate income tax collections would be insufficient to finance the added federal costs of the plan," the study read in part.

Zimbabwe votes in first post-Mugabe poll, Mnangagwa vows election is fair

Posted: 30 Jul 2018 05:58 AM PDT

Zimbabwe votes in first post-Mugabe poll, Mnangagwa vows election is fairBy MacDonald Dzirutwe and Joe Brock HARARE (Reuters) - Zimbabweans voted on Monday in the first election since the removal of former president Robert Mugabe, a watershed moment they hope will rid the country of its pariah status and spark a recovery in its failed economy. The election pits 75-year-old President Emmerson Mnangagwa, a long-time Mugabe ally, against 40-year-old Nelson Chamisa, a lawyer and pastor vying to become Zimbabwe's youngest head of state. On the eve of the election, Mugabe emerged from eight months of obscurity since the military ousted him in a bloodless coup, to announce he would vote for the opposition, surprising former ally Mnangagwa who accused him of striking a deal with Chamisa.

Zimbabwe's Mugabe backs opposition on eve of electionBy MacDonald Dzirutwe HARARE (Reuters) - Former President Robert Mugabe said he would vote for Zimbabwe's opposition in Monday's election, turning on one-time allies in the government ahead of the first vote since they ousted him in a de facto coup.

Polls, which are unreliable, give former intelligence chief Mnangagwa only a slim lead over Chamisa, making a runoff on September 8 a possibility.

Egypt seeks 75 death sentences over 2013 sit-inAn Egyptian court said on Saturday it would transfer the cases of 75 people convicted of security-related offences, including senior Muslim Brotherhood figures, to Egypt's top religious authority to decide whether they should be sentenced to death. Since President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi took power in 2014, authorities have justified a crackdown on dissent and freedoms as being directed at terrorists and saboteurs trying to undermine the state. Death sentences have been handed down to hundreds of his political opponents on charges such as belonging to an illegal organization or planning to carry out an attack.
