The Royal Australian College of GPs (RACGP) has welcomed the Western Australian Government's decision to equip Police Officers with naloxone. It comes following Police Minister Paul Papalia and Health Minister Amber-Jade Sanderson announcing that it will be added to the WA Police Force tool kit. The opioid antagonist drug can temporarily reverse the effects of an opioid overdose from drugs such as oxycodone, fentanyl, or heroin. Available via an intranasal spray, naloxone is completely free under the Take Home Naloxone program in a range of locations including participating pharmacies, alcohol and drug treatment centres, custodial release programs, and needle and syringe programs.

AS the country transitions towards Covid-19 endemicity, the virus too is changing as it attempts to co-exist with potential hosts, some experts say. With the high vaccination rate against SARS-CoV-2, future variants of the virus may even evolve to be more infectious as well as immune evasive. But it does not mean that the virus will continuously turn virulent along the way; it could also become less severe, leading to mild or negligible symptoms. People's herd immunity can also affect the virus's infection, although an outbreak can occur if an infectious new variant manages to avoid antibodies; outbreaks can also occur among clusters of those who have yet to be vaccinated or belong to a high-risk group.

Not every woman will swipe right on the same guy, but there's no debating that there are more than a few dating app deal-breakers that are basically universally shared by women. We're generally not impressed when a guy looks unkempt in his photos. Pictures of cars, money, or expensive watches don't do it for us. A guy whose bio makes it clear that he's not interested in anything serious immediately raises red flags. But guys are less picky, right? Not necessarily. We've all heard it said that men indiscriminately swipe right on any profile they come across, and while that might be true for some men, there are actually a few things that would cause a good guy to swipe left.

TOKYO – Oil prices fell on Thursday as muted U.S. economic data and expectations of interest rate hikes pushed up the U.S. dollar, prompting fear of a stronger dollar hurting global oil demand by making it more expensive. Brent futures for June delivery were down by 37 cents, or 0.4 percent, at $82.76 a barrel. West Texas Intermediate crude (WTI) for May delivery lost 28 cents, or 0.35 percent, to trade at $78.88 at 0005 GMT. U.S. economic activity was little changed in recent weeks as employment growth moderated somewhat and price increases appeared to slow, showed a Federal Reserve report published on Wednesday.
