Negative symptoms of schizophrenia refer to "abnormally absent" feelings or motivations rather than additional, new experiences or behaviors.

The Director-General of the World Health Organisation (WHO) has called for the global healthcare community to embrace technology to prevent future pandemics. He warned, however, that employing advanced healthcare systems won't be sustainable if they are not resilient and able to withstand major threats going forward. Speaking at the World Government Summit 2022 in Dubai via video link today, Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus reiterated that the COVID-19 pandemic won't be "the last" one the world faces. However, governments can work together to better prepare for any possible ones in the future. "It's certain that COVID-19 won't be the last pandemic, but how likely is it to occur? And how much damage [will it] cause when it does?," he asked. "Those are areas over which we have influence. We must learn the lessons of this pandemic." THE LARGER CONTEXT In his remarks, Ghebreyesus offered three recommendations to governments and heal...

4:49 AM ET Veteran AFL midfielder Dan Hannebery has undergone surgery on his troublesome calf but St Kilda has some good news on the injury front with Paddy Ryder named to face Richmond on Sunday. Injury-plagued Hannebery, who was restricted to eight games or less in each of the previous three seasons, will miss six to eight weeks after the injury setback last Saturday. But the Saints are hopeful that going under the knife will allow the 31-year-old to finally be free of the soft-tissue problem. "It's frustrating for Dan as he's worked so hard," said St Kilda coach Brett Ratten on Thursday.

"Hopefully it's six weeks and then he's playing the latter part of the year and having a...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — At least 2 billion people around the world have vision problems – but how do you know if and when your pet is struggling with its own eyesight? Dr. Wendy Townsend, associate professor of ophthalmology in Purdue University's Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences, has focused her career and research in veterinary medicine to diagnosing and treating eye conditions in animals. "The most common question I get is if we fit animals with glasses," Townsend says. "While that's not what we do, our goal is to help animals see better and improve their quality of life if they're having issues." Although her patients span across a variety of different species, her research is focused on a particular breed of dog that reigns as one of the most popular dog breeds in America: golden retrievers. Golden retriever pigmentary uveitis is a disease almost exclusively found in purebred golden retrievers. It's an inherited form of uveitis ...

What's the News:  Please back away from the armadillo, ma'am. You can watch them from a distance, even take pictures, but don't play with or eat Texas's state mammal: Scientists  have just confirmed  that it is a source of leprosy infections in humans. How the Heck: About 150–250 cases of leprosy, which is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium leprae and results in nerve damage if not treated early, are diagnosed in the U.S. each year. Two-thirds of the patients turned out to have contracted the disease abroad in places like Africa, the Philippines and Brazil, where it's not uncommon. But a third of the patients had never traveled to locales with a history of leprosy. Many of them lived in the southern U.S., where armadillos roam and are occasionally eaten for meat. Armadillos are known to carry leprosy — in fact, they are the only wild animals other than humans upon which the picky M. leprae can stand to live — and scientists suspected t...

There are few things scarier than experiencing shortness of breath out-of-nowhere. It was enough to freak out even hardened mob boss Tony Soprano and send him to the hospital. And when it comes to a symptom so often associated with life-threatening heart and lung problems, many people assume the feeling is an emergency. But what if that shortness of breath is all in your head, no matter how much it feels like it's in your chest? [embedded content] This kind of mix-up happens frequently, psychiatrist Gail Saltz explains. "The most common confusion arises over panic attacks, which cause shortness of breath, but also can cause palpitations, a feeling like you could be dying or having a heart attack," Saltz tells me. By the time she sees patients who have obvious anxiety and panic disorders, many of them have already made expensive trips to the ER to rule out something physical.  Among the more effective ways to distinguish between a panic...
