Johnson AP Medical Writer The U.S. death toll from COVID-19 hit 1 million on Monday, a once-unimaginable ﬁgure that only hints at the multitudes of loved ones and friends staggered by grief and frustration. The conﬁrmed number of dead is equivalent to a 9/11 attack every day for 336 days. It is roughly equal to how many Americans died in the Civil War and World War II combined. It’s as if Boston and Pittsburgh were wiped out. “It is hard to imagine a million people plucked Matt Rourke | AP Sara Atkins poses for a photo May 10 in Wynnewood, Pa., while holding a pillow with an image of her father Andy Rotman-Zaid, who died of COVID-19 in December 2020.

They replay their loved ones’ voicemail messages. Or watch old videos to see them dance.

Family members are often overlooked as important pieces of WASHINGTON — Under ﬁre from parents and politicians, President Joe Biden’s administration announced steps Monday to ease a nationwide shortage of baby formula, including reopening the largest domestic manufacturing plant and increasing imports from overseas. The Food and Drug Administration said it was streamlining its review process to make it easier for foreign manufacturers to begin shipping formula to the U.S. “We are hopeful this call to the global market will be answered and that international businesses will rise to the occasion to assist in bolstering the supply of products,” said FDA Commissioner Robert Califf, in a statement. Califf said the U.S. will prioritize companies that can provide the largest shipments and quickly show documentation that their formulas are safe and meet U.S. nutrition standards. The imports announcement came shortly after regulators said they’d reached a deal to allow Abbott Nutrition to restart its Sturgis, Michigan-based plant, which has been closed since February due to contamination issues. The company must overhaul its safety protocols and procedures before resuming production.

McDonald’s said in early March that it was temporarily closing its stores in Russia but would continue to pay its employees. It was a costly decision. Late last month, the company said it was losing $55 million each month due to the restaurant closures. It also lost $100 million worth of inventory. McDonald’s has also closed 108 restaurants in Ukraine and continues to pay its employees there. Western companies have wrestled with extricating themselves from Russia, enduring the hit to their bottom lines from pausing or closing operations in the face of sanctions. Others have stayed in Russia at least partially, with some facing blowback.

Video showed Ukrainian soldiers carrying a post that resembled a Ukrainian blue-and-yellow-striped border marker. Then they placed it on the ground while a dozen of the soldiers posed next to it, including one with belts of bullets draped over a shoulder. “I’m very grateful to you, on behalf of all Ukrainians, on my behalf and on behalf of my family,” Zelenskyy said in a video message. “I’m very grateful to all the ﬁghters like you.” The Ukrainian border service said the video was from the border “in the Kharkiv region,” but would not elaborate, citing security reasons. It was not immediately possible to verify the exact location. Ukrainian border guards said they also stopped a Russian attempt to send sabotage and reconnaissance troops into the Sumy region, some 90 miles (146 kilometers) northwest of Kharkiv. Russia has been plagued by setbacks in the war, most glaringly in its failure early on to take the capital of Kyiv. Much of the ﬁghting has shifted to the Donbas but also has turned into a slog, with both sides ﬁghting village-by-village. Howitzers from the U.S. and other countries have helped Kyiv hold off or gain ground against Russia, a senior U.S. defense ofﬁcial said. The ofﬁcial, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the U.S. military assessment, said Ukraine has pushed Russian forces to within a half-mile to 2.5 miles (1-4 kilometers) of Russia’s border but could not conﬁrm if it was all the way to the frontier. The ofﬁcial said Russian long-range strikes also appeared to target a Ukrainian military training center in Yavoriv, near the Polish border. There were no immediate reports of casualties. A glimmer of hope emerged for wounded Ukrainian troops trapped in the remains of a giant steel plant, the last stronghold of resistance in the shattered port city of Mariupol. The Russian Defense Ministry announced an agreement for the wounded to leave the steelworks for treatment in a town held by pro-Moscow separatists. and police outside a restaurant in Waco, Texas, leaving nine of the bikers dead and 20 people injured.

U.S. remains engaged U.S. troops will be in the long ﬁght against repositioned from else- Islamic extremists around the world, even if the effort has been eclipsed by the war in Ukraine and other matters. The decision to station forces again in Somalia, rather than rotate them in and out, is intended “to maximize the safety and effectiveness of our forces and enable them to provide more efﬁcient support to our partners,” National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said in announcing the redeployment. U.S. troops in Somalia will total “under 500” according to a senior Biden administration ofﬁcial who spoke on condition of anonymity to brief journalists on the decision. In addition to training Somali forces, American troops will also provide security to personnel from the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development as they work with the government to emerge from years of turmoil, the ofﬁcial said. Trump abruptly ordered the withdrawal of approximately 700 troops from Somalia at the end of his term in January 2021, an extension of a broader policy of seeking to pull the U.S. out of what he derisively referred to as “endless wars” around the world. But military leaders said that came at a cost, wasting time, money and momentum as troops had to rotate in and out of the country. Gen. Stephen Townsend, head of U.S. Africa Command, told Congress in March that the rotations, which he called “commuting to work,” were not efﬁcient or effective and put American troops at greater risk. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin requested the deployment “to reestablish a persistent U.S. military presence in Somalia to enable a more effective ﬁght against al-Shabaab, which has increased in strength and poses a heightened threat,” said an administration ofﬁcial said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the plan before the White House announcement. break is based on death certiﬁcate data compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics. But the real number of lives lost to COVID-19, either directly or indirectly, as a result the disruption of the health care system in the world’s richest country, is believed to be far higher. The U.S. has the highest reported COVID-19 death toll of any country, though health experts have long suspected that the real number of deaths in places such as India, Brazil and Russia is higher than the ofﬁcial ﬁgures. The milestone comes more than three months after the U.S. reached 900,000 dead. The pace has slowed since a harrowing winter surge fueled by the omicron variant. The U.S. is averaging about 300 COVID-19 deaths per day, compared with a peak of about 3,400 a day in January 2021. New cases are on the rise again, climbing more than 60% in the past two weeks to an average of about 86,000 a day — still well below the all-time high of over 800,000, reached when the omicron variant was raging during the winter. The largest bell at Washington National Cathedral in the nation’s capital tolled 1,000 times a week ago, once for every 1,000 deaths. President Joe Biden on Thursday ordered ﬂags lowered to half-staff and called each life “an irreplaceable loss.” “As a nation, we must not grow numb to such sorrow,” he said in a statement. “To heal, we must remember.” More than half the deaths occurred since vaccines became available in December of 2020. Two-thirds of Americans are fully vaccinated, and nearly half of them have had at least one booster dose. But demand for the vaccine has plummeted, and the campaign to put shots in arms has been plagued by misinformation, distrust and political polarization. Unvaccinated people have a 10 times greater risk of dying of COVID19 than the fully vaccinated, according to the CDC. “To me, that is what is just so particularly heartbreaking,” Nuzzo said. Vaccines are safe and greatly reduce the likelihood of severe illness, she said. They “largely take the possibility of death off the table.” Angelina Proia, 36, of New York, lost her father to COVID-19 in April 2020. She runs a support group for grieving families on Facebook and has seen it divided over vaccinations. She has booted people from the group for spreading misinformation. “I don’t want to hear conspiracy theories. I don’t want to hear antiscience,” said Proia, who wishes her father could have been vaccinated. Sara Atkins, 42, of Wynnewood, Pennsylvania, channels her grief into ﬁghting for global vaccination and better access to health care to honor her father, Andy Rotman-Zaid, who died of COVID-19 in December 2020. “My father gave me marching orders to end it and make sure it doesn’t happen again,” Atkins said of the pandemic. “He told me, ‘Politicize the hell out of my death if I die of this.’” Julie Wallace and her husband, Lewis Dunlap, had cellphone numbers one digit apart. She continues paying to keep his number. She calls it just to hear his voice. “It’s just so important to hear that sometimes,” she said. “It gives you a little bit of reassurance while also tearing your heart out.” COVID From page 1 us never get to go back to normal.” Three out of every four deaths were people 65 and older. More men died than women. White people made up most of the deaths overall. But Black, Hispanic and Native American people have been roughly twice as likely to die from COVID-19 as their white counterparts. Most deaths happened in urban areas, but rural places — where opposition to masks and vaccinations tends to run high — paid a heavy price at times.

The Wahama baseball team took down the Ravenswood Red Devils on the road 9-2 Saturday morning in the Region IV Section 2 ﬁnal round. The win came after the White Falcons (22-5) lost to the Red Devils (12-11) at home Wednesday by a score of 11-10 in the winners’ bracket ﬁnal. Senior Ethyn Barnitz started Saturday’s game in a big way, hitting a leadoff home run into left-center ﬁeld to give the White and Red the early lead.

Also noted in the proclamation was outstanding courage and initiative in the performance of their duties with have gained the appreciation and esteem of many. Ohio State Fire Marshal Kevin Reardon then presented a signed proclamation from Governor Mike DeWine and Lieutenant Governor John Husted. This proclamation noted the founding of the ﬁre department and its evolution from a bucket brigade in 1847, through its ﬁrst horse pulled wagons and steam pumper which served a population of 7,000 residents, to today’s modernized ﬁre department that proudly serves the community. Chief Miller then introduced retired members who were unable to attend the dinner which included John Manley, Gary Snouffer, Jeff Shank, Bryan Shank, Tom Reed, Bryan Zirkle, Kevin VanMatre, and Mike Vanmeter. Following, Miller presented awards to retired and active members and introduced each of them to the crowd with an acknowledgement of their service to the department, along with any line or company ofﬁcer positions that they had held, and entry date to the department.

After awards to the members were presented, the evening’s presentation then shifted to the department’s longest serving member, Howard B. Mullen. Mullen, approaching his 70th anniversary of active duty with the department on November 10, received special recognition for his tenure serving the community. Mullen, who joined the department on November 10, 1952, was presented a special commendation from State Fire Marshal Kevin Reardon, which congratulated Mullen on 70 years of volunteer service with the Pomeroy Fire Department. Chief Miller then read an extensive list of accomplishments from Mullen’s career and concluded with resolution 77-22 of Pomeroy Village Council. This resolution dedicated and renamed the Pomeroy Fire Department’s Butternut Avenue Station as the “Howard B. Mullen Fire Station” in recognition of his 70 years of courageous and faithful dedication to the safety and well-being of the citizens of Pomeroy. Mullen received a standing ovation from the attendees as the emotion of the event overcame him. Mullen acknowledged those in attendance and accepted the honor in recognition of all members of the Pomeroy Fire Department who have gone above and beyond to make the department what it is today. The evening concluded with the presentation of door prizes which were donated by local merchants, as well as a department picture to commemorate the 175th anniversary celebration.

Abbott’s voluntary recall was triggered by four illnesses reported in babies who had consumed powdered formula from the Michigan plant. All four infants were hospitalized with a rare type of bacterial infection and two died. After a six-week inspection, FDA investigators published a list of problems in March, including lax safety and sanitary standards and a history of bacterial contamination in several parts of the plant. Chicago-based Abbott has emphasized that its products have not been directly linked to the bacterial infections in children. Samples of the bacteria found at its plant did not match the strains collected from the babies by federal investigators. The company has repeatedly stated it is ready to resume manufacturing, pending an FDA decision. Class of 2022 honor your graduate Parents, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles & Friends...
