That really awful hacking cough that’s now doing the rounds? It’s pertussis — whooping cough, or the 100-day cough as it’s become known — and cases are surging in the UK.
While it’s a very nasty infection if you get it as child or an adult — as I know from my own experience after ending up in A&E — for very small babies, it can be lethal.
Earlier this week, I wrote in the Mail that some paediatric colleagues

Drivers in London and Cardiff are being unfairly stung with fines of up to £160 for yellow box junction infringements because the road markings are unnecessarily large.
A new study from the RAC shows almost every yellow box junction is bigger than it needs to be, leading to unjust fines handed out to motorists and in turn has become a lucrative cash cow for local authorities.
Staggeringly, almost 98 per cent of the 100 yellow box junctions in London and
Taylor Swift lieferte in Rio de Janeiro, Brasilien, einen kraftvollen Auftritt ab und zollte damit möglicherweise einem Fan, Ana Clara Benevides Machado, Tribut, die kurz vor einer ihrer Shows starb.
Während des Konzerts, das während des gesamten Konzerts heftigen Regenfällen ausgesetzt war, sang Swift ihre Ballade „Bigger Than the Whole Sky“ als einen ihrer Überraschungssongs und blickte beim Spielen sichtlich emotional auf das Klavier.
Das Lied enthält Texte wie „Auf Wiedersehen, auf Wiedersehen, auf Wiedersehen/Du warst größer als der ganze
Taylor Swift schien dem verstorbenen Fan Ana Clara Benevides Machado am zweiten Abend in Brasilien mit einer emotionalen Songauswahl Tribut zu zollen.
Bei jeder Show ihrer Eras-Tour spielt die 33-jährige Swift zwei Überraschungslieder akustisch und am Sonntag, den 19. November, singt Swift „Bigger Than the Whole Sky“ aus ihrem Jahr 2022 Mitternacht Album.

Profits are soaring. Production is climbing — and marking a record year in the United States. The industry is even poised to gain from the crusade to rein in climate pollution, including the billions of dollars in incentives that U.S. President Joe Biden is offering for wind farms, battery minerals and carbon-carrying pipelines.
Climate change may have propelled the evolution of humanity forward by giving humanity’s ancient ancestors bigger brains, a new study has suggested.
Researchers from Washington University in St Louis found increases in the brain sizes of ancient hominins (humanity’s ancestors) aligned with glacial phases more than 600,000 years ago.
The team developed a computer simulation to mathematically show how new mating habits and ‘parental cooperation’ needed to survive during an inhospitable Ice Age would have ‘sped up’ the evolution of
The sleeves are the key. Just remember that when you’re next weighing up the blouse with the marrow sleeves versus the mere courgettes, or deciding between the balloon-sleeved dress and the one with the slim bracelets.
If you want to give yourself a makeover for as much effort as changing your lipstick (less I would argue, I don’t wear lipstick much), then pump up the sleeve volume, pick one that’s ruched, just don’t settle for safe.

When Madison tried on bras in size 34B, she found that they didn’t fit properly, with gaps in the cups and a loose band. Seeking a more accurate fitting, Madison went for another measurement and was then shocked to find she was correctly measured as a 24L.
“How in the world can I be an L cup?” she said. Madison took to TikTok and shared a video comparing an ill-fitting 34B bra to a perfectly fitting 24L bra to her
On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court turned one of the most intimate choices a person can make into a decision that will be imposed on millions of people by politicians. In some ways, the
