Sad & Preventable: Czech Republic Folk Singer Dies After Intentionally Catching COVID
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: NurPhoto / Getty For some time now, anti-vaxxers have cited the least corroborated “science” in suggesting herd immunity and intentionally infecting oneself with COVID-19 as viable alternatives to getting the shot despite all the leading immunologists and health experts saying they aren’t. Unfortunately, denying science in the name of being anti-authoritarian isn’t just an American thing—it’s a global phenomenon. It’s even more unfortunate that the misguided efforts of the self-infected have cost a beloved folk singer in the Czech Republic her life. 57-year-old Hana Horka, who sings lead with her band Asonance, died Sunday after deliberately infecting herself with COVID, according to what her son, Jan Rek, told BBC News. Rek said his mother was infested d...

The CDC Suggests Cutting COVID-19 Isolation From 10 To 5 Days, Twitter Has Suspicions
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: SOPA Images / Getty COVID-19 cases are averaging close to 200,000 cases per day due to the aggressive Omicron variant, prompting public health officials to scramble for widespread testing and other mitigating measures. The CDC, one of the leading voices regarding the deadly virus, suggested that COVID-19 isolation be cut from 10 to 5 days, but only if the subject is asymptomatic. The CDC made an announcement this week that isolation and quarantine time after a positive COVID-19 test can be cut from the formerly routine 10 days to just five. Earlier, it was suggested that healthcare workers could return to work sooner after exposure to the virus, which prompted some pushback last week when that instruction was first announced. However, this latest mi...
COVID-19 Variant B.1.1.529 Raises Concerns Across South Africa
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: piola666 / Getty COVID-19 is still very much a part of our daily lives and while vaccinations and other mitigating factors have helped, the world is still in the grips of a pandemic. Earlier this week, a virologist in London discovered the B.1.1.529, raising concerns across South Africa at the moment. Dr. Tom Peaccok of Imperial College shared his findings via a string of tweets on Tuesday (Nov. 23) and others have chimed in with thoughts from his field of study. “Just spotted: very small cluster of variant associated with Southern Africa with very long branch length and really awful Spike mutation profile including RBD – K417N, N440K, G446S, S477N, T478K, E484A, Q493K, G496S, Q498R, N501Y, Y505H,” began Peacock’s Twitter thread.

Study Finds Racial Discrimination Leads To Anxiety, Depression & Suicidal Ideation In Black Men
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: FatCamera / Getty When it comes to the leading causes of death of Black men in America, heart disease and cancer are often brought up as they should be since they’re at the very top of the killer list across ages. Homicide is also often brought up, especially by white people who lean on it as an illogical justification for their racism. But one relatively common cause of death among Black men and boys that is rarely discussed is suicide—the leading cause of death for Black males ages 15 to 24, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. According to a study conducted by Janell R. Goodwill, an assistant professor at the University of Chicago Crown Family School of Social Work, Policy and Practice, suicide is a leading cause for Black...
Listen to Health and Poppy’s First Collaboration on ‘Dead Flowers’
Health released their single in collaboration with Poppy “Dead Flowers.” Poppy’s darkly angelic voice glides through the industrial clouds of Health’s instrumentals. She opens the track: “Erased some stuff / And now they’re fighting me / ‘Cause we fade apart / Moon is soft to see,” which is seemingly the opposite route taken in The Rolling Stones’ 1971 track of the same name off Sticky Fingers. Health’s ethereal blend of searing guitars and snapping drums delicately elevate Poppy and lead vocalist of Health Jake Duszik while taking on the chorus. [embedded content][embedded content] “Every time we release a new track we get asked to give a quote about it,” Health said. “Truthfully, I’m not sure it makes much of a difference.” Health will release a sequel ...
