That could still change, but at least for now, says Schuchat, local and state health authorities will have some guidelines for deciding who should get vaccinated if it becomes necessary. That could be useful since initial lots of the vaccine, which will have to be given in two doses, may not be sufficient to vaccinate everyone who wants it; some targeting of the first shots will be necessary. Manufacturers around the world are currently preparing and testing vaccines - the first are expected to be ready in October - but Schuchat stressed on Wednesday that the CDC has not yet decided whether...

Many popular cities even have Facebook groups devoted to providing social outings and networking opportunities for the thousands of interns who descend each summer...
...northern city of Milan has decided that the festa is over. Citing some alarming statistics about preteen alcohol abuse, the city has imposed a strict new local law that goes beyond the legislation that currently allows only those over 16 to buy booze. For the first time in Italy, the parents of anyone underage caught drinking and anyone who supplies someone under 16 with alcohol will face punishment, with a fine...
