~0.9 mins read
The Gombe State chapter of the National Youth Service Corps has admonished corps members to shun all forms of social vices.

The Camp Director, Ndako Bida, stated this during the Friday morning meditation with the corps members in the camp.

This was made known in a statement by the chapter, where the Camp Director also addressed the corps members to be of good conduct.

“Alhaji Ndako advised them on the need to be their brothers’ and sisters’ keeper by looking out for one another, calling on them to shun any form of social vices and be of good conduct throughout the service year,” the statement read in part.

During the meeting, Bid also read out some of the suggestions dropped by corps members and tacked the issues raised.

“He, however, reminded them that the Camp is a temporary facility provided for the purpose of the Orientation Course as Management through the help of the State Government would keep renovating and improving on the facilities to provide camp participants with a conducive atmosphere,” the statement read.

Trump: ‘I am immune’ from Covid-19

US President Donald Trump on Sunday declared himself immune from Covid-19 as he prepares to return to the campaign trail in a fight to regain ground against surging White House rival Joe Biden.
“It looks like I’m immune for, I don’t know, maybe a long time and maybe a short time, it could be a lifetime, nobody really knows, but I’m immune,” Trump said in a Fox News interview, a day after his doctor affirmed he was no longer a transmission risk for the disease.
“You have a president who is immune… so now you have a president who doesn’t have to hide in a basement like his opponent,” he added — in a jab at the Democrat Biden and his far more cautious approach to campaigning in a pandemic.
It is not yet clear to what degree contracting Covid-19 confers immunity from future infection, with early studies suggesting a few months while newer ones have indicated it could last longer.
While it acknowledges that — generally — a person who recovers from a viral infection is protected against new infection, the World Health Organization cautioned in August: “For COVID-19, we do not yet have enough data to confirm if antibodies protect, what antibody levels are required, or how long protection will last.”
During his phone interview on Fox News, Trump went on to suggest that his White House rival could himself be sick.
“If you look at Joe, he was coughing yesterday horribly and grabbing his mask, as he’s coughing,” Trump said. “And I don’t know what that was all about, and it didn’t get much press.”
The Biden campaign has been publishing daily coronavirus tests for their candidate since Trump tested positive on October 1 — landing him in hospital for three nights and derailing his campaign.
There has been less transparency surrounding Trump’s own state of health, with his medical team repeatedly refusing to say when he lasted tested negative for the virus. That has fueled suspicions that he may not have been tested for several days prior to his diagnosis.
Trump rallied hundreds of supporters for a comeback event at the White House on Saturday, and is planning back-to-back rallies this week in a bit to salvage his struggling campaign three weeks from the November 3 election.

    Peru Sets Up National Park To Protect 'one Of The Last Great Intact Forests'
    ~1.1 mins read
    As Donald Trump weakens environmental protections in the US, Peru approves a new national park to preserve millions of acres of the Amazon, its endangered species and indigenous people

    The rainforests in Peru’s remote north-west corner are vast – so vast that the clouds that form above them can influence rainfall in the western United States. The region contains species, especially unusual fish, that are unlike any found elsewhere on Earth. Scientists studying the area’s flora and fauna may gain insights into evolutionary processes and into the ecological health and geological history of the Amazon.

    Now the region has become home to one of the Western Hemisphere’s newest national parks. Yaguas National Park will protect millions of acres of roadless wilderness – and the indigenous people who rely on it – from development and deforestation.
