Morad-Hughes Health Center Senators to Biden: Waive vaccine intellectual property rules By Aamer Madhani Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Ten liberal senators are urging President Joe Biden to back India and South Africa’s appeal to the World Trade Organization to temporarily relax intellectual property rules so coronavirus vaccines can be manufactured by nations that are struggling to inoculate their populations. The lawmakers, in a letter delivered to the White House on Thursday evening, wrote that Biden should “prioritize people over pharmaceutical company profits” and support the temporary waiver of the rules. A waiver could pave the way for generic or other manufacturers to make more vaccines. The letter was led by independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, along with Democratic Sens. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin and Sherrod Brown of Ohio. Democratic Sens. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, Chris Murphy of Connecticut, Edward Markey of Massachusetts, Jeff Merkley of Oregon, Chris Van Hollen of Maryland and Raphael Warnock of Georgia also signed the letter. “Simply put, we must make vaccines, testing, and treatments accessible everywhere if we are going to crush the virus anywhere,” the lawmakers say in the letter, which was obtained by The Associated Press. More than 100 nations support a temporary waiver, which could help vaccine manufacturing ramp up in poorer countries that are struggling to acquire vaccine supplies. The Biden administration has said it is studying the issue. Opponents, including pharmaceutical companies, worry that it would set dangerous precedent in allowing scientists around the globe to copy American and European companies’ research — some of which was funded by the U.S. government — long before patents expire. The Trump administration had opposed calls for the waiver. The White House did not respond to a request for comment on the lawmakers’ letter. The lawmakers’ appeal to Biden came after a group of 170 former world leaders and Nobel laureates earlier this week sent a similar letter to Biden urging him to support a temporary waiver of the WTO’s intellectual property rules. The coronavirus pandemic has killed nearly 3 million people worldwide, including more than 170,000 in India and more than 50,000 in South Africa, according to figures compiled by Johns Hopkins University. 122 Pinnell Street, Ripley WV ! s n o i t a l u t a r g n o C To The Winners of Our THIRD PLACE $25 Cash GRAND PRIZE $100 Cash SECOND PLACE $50 Cash OH-70232742 Thanks to our sponsors: OH-SPAD0304144331 Four Season’s Animal Clinic & All Season's Boarding Dr. Angie Dahse has provided over 21 years of compassionate & affordable preventative, sick & surgical care for dogs, cats & most farm animals.

The family of Rice, who was shot and killed by Cleveland police in 2014, asked the Justice Department on Friday to reopen the case into the boy’s death after it was closed in the waning weeks of the Trump administration. Family asks feds to reopen case on Tamir Rice killing By Colleen Long Associated Press CHICAGO — The family of 12-year-old Tamir Rice, who was shot and killed by Cleveland police in 2014, asked the Justice Department on Friday to reopen the case into his death after it was closed in the waning weeks of the Trump administration. In late 2020, federal prosecutors said they would not bring charges against the two police officers involved, saying video of the shooting was of too poor a quality for them to conclusively establish what had happened. There were no other prosecutions in the case. In December 2015, a grand jury declined to bring criminal charges against the officers. Rice’s family said in a letter to the Justice Department that it believes Trump officials were uninterested in seeking justice for him because of political reasons and made the case needlessly complicated. “The truth is this case is tragically simple. Tamir Rice was a boy. On November 22, 2014, he was doing something many boys enjoy: playing with a toy gun in a park near his house,” attorneys for the family wrote in the letter. Rice was Black, and the police officer who shot him was white. The shooting sparked community protests about the police treatment of Black people, especially after a grand jury decided not to indict the officer or his partner. “I’m still in so much pain because no one has been held accountable for the criminal act that took his life,” Rice’s mother, Samaria Rice, said in a statement. “I’m asking DOJ to reopen the investigation into my son’s case; we need an indictment and conviction for Tamir’s death.” The family’s request puts pressure on Attorney General Merrick Garland and the Biden administration to begin publicly delivering on a commitment to combat racial discrimination in policing. Garland has said America doesn’t “yet have equal justice.” But reopening the case could be complicated. “The election of President Biden, your appointment, and your commitment to the rule of law, racial justice, and police reform give Tamir’s family hope that the chance for accountability is not lost forever,” the family said in the letter. The Justice Department declined to comment. Rice was playing with a pellet gun outside a recreation center in Cleveland on Nov. 22, 2014, when he was shot and killed by Officer Timothy Loehmann seconds after Loehmann and his partner, Officer Frank Garmback, arrived. The officers had been dispatched to the recreation center after a man drinking beer and waiting for a bus called 911 to report that a “guy” was pointing a gun at people. The caller told a 911 dispatcher that it was probably a juvenile and the gun might be “fake,” though that information was never relayed to the officers.

The Browns followed the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks, Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, New England Patriots and New York Giants in saying they’ll exercise their collectively bargained rights not to take part in the workouts, which were scheduled to begin next week. The Las Vegas Raiders followed suit later Thursday with their players releasing a statement through the NFLPA that they also wouldn’t participate in the voluntary offseason program. On Wednesday, the league issued a memo to “The Cleveland all 32 teams announcing Browns players that the first four weeks of the voluntary program agree that a virtual will be virtual before offseason, like we transitioning to in person had last year, is at the team’s respective the best decision training facilities. Last year, the offseason for everyone in our programs were all done league.” virtually and training — Statement from camp was pushed back Browns players because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Browns players released a statement through the NFLPA saying they are opposed to the idea. “The NFL’s memo outlining how they plan to implement voluntary workouts falls short of what we as players believe is adequate,” the statement said. “The Cleveland Browns players agree that a virtual offseason, like we had last year, is the best decision for everyone in our league. “COVID-19 continues to affect our players, our families and our communities, and we must continue to take it seriously. In addition to the ongoing threat of the pandemic, we felt healthier both mentally and physically last year, which we attribute to sufficient recovery time and the lack of additional wear and tear on our bodies during the spring months. The league-wide injury data supports us as well, as NFL players experienced a 23% reduction in missed-time injuries last season. “For these reasons, we stand in solidarity with players from other clubs by exercising our CBA right to not attend in-person voluntary workouts this offseason. We are professionals who train year-round, wherever we spend our offseason. As we proved last year, we will be ready to compete this upcoming season.” One of the arguments against the programs used by Tretter, who was elected union president last year as the pandemic hit, is statistics support that less workouts last season led directly to less injuries, including concussions. Although Browns coach Kevin Stefanski didn’t have an in-person offseason program in his first year in 2020, he managed to overcome the challenge and led Cleveland to its first postseason appearance since the 2002 season. The Raiders players gave a similar statement, but did leave open some room for players with offseason workout bonuses to participate. The Raiders have nine players, according to the website Over The Cap, who can earn bonuses by participating in the offseason program. “We respect those players on our team and across the NFL who have contractual incentives linked to their participation in the program, but we stand in solidarity with our fellow players who are making the best decision on behalf of themselves and their families,” the statement from the players said.

On Thursday, that number revealed faces who knew them, as loved ones gathered to place an American flag in memory of those they lost during a memorial ceremony at Gunn Park in Point Pleasant, organized by the city. For those who could not be at the ceremony to participate, flags were still placed for the deceased by city employees. “Like many of you, I hurt each and every day, like many of you, I lost my mother, Nov. 18, 2020 of COVID and it’s a hard thing to death with,” Mayor Brian Billings said. “I know throughout our lives, we lose our loved ones but this hit me and I’m sure you, very hard. I feel like they were taken away way too soon. My heart aches. It’s hard to even go over to my parents’ homes sometimes and that’s wrong, I know that, because she’s not there, and I know that you all are going though the same thing.” The mayor continued: “I don’t want to see another family go through what my family has gone through and your family has gone through.” City Clerk Amber Tatterson then offered her condolences to those gathered before reading the ages, genders and initials of Mason County’s 40 COVID-19 victims. The list was compiled for the city by the Mason County Health Department. American flags were placed in memory of loved ones who died from COVID-19 during a remembrance ceremony honoring victims of the virus held in Gunn Park this week. Also speaking at the event were Pastors Chip Bennett and Bobby Patterson. Bennett, who closed the memorial observance, spoke on the verse from the Book of John famous for being the shortest verse in the King James Version - simply put, but poignant for the ceremony, “Jesus wept.” Bennett spoke to the families in an attempt to provide comfort as did Patterson who opened the service. “One of the things that seems just as hard to battle as far as COVID itself, is the fact that when we lose a loved one, that a lot of times, those loved ones have been alone, and that’s especially hard knowing you can’t be there with your family when they take their last breath,” Patterson said. “But, I wanted to assure you of one thing today, their last breath, they were not alone.

They recalled several memories of their loved one and how often they have a question that only “she would know” and how those go unanswered these days.
