RSV, or Respiratory Syncytial Virus, is a common respiratory virus that affects people of all ages and can cause cold-like symptoms such as coughing, congestion, sore throat, and fever. The virus is highly contagious and primarily spreads through respiratory droplets and direct contact, with a typical incubation period of 2 to 8 days. Differentiating RSV from common cold and COVID-19, RSV infection often manifests with lower respiratory symptoms, prolonged course, and potential development of wheezing. Severe cases, especially in infants, can lead to bronchiolitis with symptoms like difficulty breathing, cyanosis, and chest retractions. Prevention involves measures like handwashing, disinfection, wearing masks, and avoiding crowded places, with additional attention to breastfeeding and vaccination for high-risk groups like premature infants and children with certain medical conditions.

Washington insists on halting Houthi Red Sea attacks as a condition for moving forward with a UN peace plan, despite previous airstrikes against the group having little effect. The US-backed Central Bank of Yemen is taking actions against banks in Houthi-controlled territories to hinder their financial access.

On June 7, 2024, at 3:46 AM, volunteers at a pet foster home are preparing food to feed these cute puppies. In Australia, inflation has caused a rise in prices, making it difficult for foster homes to afford pet food, which now relies on donations. With fixed income sources and rising expenses like mortgages, rent, insurance, education, healthcare, and utilities, Australians are facing difficulties choosing between feeding themselves or their pets, with close to a quarter of food-insecure families sacrificing a meal for their pets. This leads to an overflow of shelters as more families are forced to surrender their pets due to financial constraints, with spaying and neutering procedures being unaffordable for many pet owners.
