COVID-19 wastewater best with other data: researchers

COVID-19 wastewater data has offered clarity throughout the pandemic, providing glimpses into what cities and hospitals could be facing in the coming weeks. And it remains one of the only sources of timely information regarding the spread of the coronavirus in the province.But the lead scientist at the University of Saskatchewan’s Global Institute for Water Security, which monitors the levels of virus RNA in the wastewater of three cities in the province, told Global News the information is not as helpful as it once was.“What I used to be able to do was get on the (COVID-19) dashboard for the province and take those numbers off of there and put them into my calculations,” toxicologist John Giesy said.“Well, I can’t do that anymore.” Saskatchewan students and teachers react to COVID-19 restrictions lifting Giesy said the numbers can still show trends and overall increases or decreases in the amount of COVID in cities.

More than half of smartphone users say a dead battery is a ‘nightmare scenario’

LOS ANGELES - How long can you go without your phone? According to a recent survey published by data company OnePoll, six out of ten people say they "couldn’t cope" with being separated from their phones for a single day. Additionally, more than half of the survey’s respondents said they get anxiety from their phones being low on battery. 55% of respondents called having their phones die a "nightmare scenario."The survey, conducted by HMD Global, took data from 2,000 smartphone users."Smartphones offer so much, it’s unsurprising that we’re dependent, making the common complaints around battery life a real issue," Petri Hayrynen of HMD Global said in a statement.Ironically, while many people expressed that being without a phone would cause them to be anxious, only three in 10 people said they never leave the house without their phones.Advertisement"There are other ways we can preserve our phone battery and offset that angst," Hayrynen said.
