WASHINGTON - Natural disasters forced nearly 3.4 million people in the United States to leave their homes in 2022, new data reveals.According to U.S.

Census Bureau data collected earlier this year, the majority of Americans were displaced by hurricanes, floods, fires and tornadoes.

The count is based on more than 68,000 responses it recieved as part of the Household Pulse Survey conducted last month. The survey included questions on the impact of living through natural disasters and was designed to provide data on how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected people’s lives.Nearly 40% of respondents returned to their homes within a week, about 12% were evacuated for more than six months and 16% had not returned home (and may never return).

Louisina and Florida suffered the greatest impact — with 12.8% (368,529) people displaced in Louisina and 6.1% (888,985) people displaced in Florida.

North Carolina man developed 'uncontrollable' Irish accent during prostate cancer treatment
North Carolina man developed an "uncontrollable Irish accent" until his death after being treated for prostate cancer, according to research published in the British Medical Journal.The patient, who was only identified as a man in his 50s, was presumably afflicted with foreign accent syndrome (FAS) after receiving androgen deprivation therapy and being prescribed abiraterone acetate/prednisone.The report said the man lived in England during his 20s and had friends and distant family members from Ireland, but had never visited the country or spoken with the foreign accent."His accent was uncontrollable, present in all settings and gradually became persistent," the four researchers wrote in their report, adding that it first began 20 months into his treatment.WALKING DEAD SYNDROME AND OTHER RARE CONDITIONS THAT BAFFLE DOCTORS AND RESEARCHERSSeveral similar cases have been studied across the globe in recent years, but this was reportedly the first case of FAS described in a patient with prostate cancer and the third described in a patient with malignancy.The researchers believe his voice change was caused by a condition called paraneoplastic neurological disorder (PND), which happens when cancer patients' immune systems attack parts of their brain, muscles, nerves and spinal cord."Despite chemotherapy, his neuroendocrine prostate cancer progressed resulting in multifocal brain metastases and a likely paraneoplastic ascending paralysis leading to his death," they wrote.Even as his condition worsened, the accent remained until his death months later. The report said the man did not have any neurological examination abnormalities or psychiatric history.
