The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says it is tracking a rise in stomach illnesses caused by infections with "extensively drug-resistant" bacteria that leave doctors with few antibiotic options to treat patients. The CDC warns it now poses a "serious public health threat." Over the past few years, the CDC says there are signs the percentage of Shigella bacteria cases that are resistant to a broad swath of antibiotics has begun to climb steeply around the country. These strains can also spread their resistance genes to other stomach bugs. Analyses of these bacteria, dubbed XDR Shigella, have shown resistance to all of the typically recommended frontline antibiotic treatments for bacteria: azithromycin, ciprofloxacin, ceftriaxone, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, and ampicillin.  Outbreaks of Shigella bacteria often spread through contaminated food and water, via surfaces, or through sex. Symptoms of the disease it causes, a form of dysenter...

Television technology has come a long way in recent years, and one of the most significant developments has been the rise of smart TVs. While there are many options available, one operating system that stands out from the crowd is Android TV. As someone who has tried several TV operating systems, including Samsung Tizen, LG WebOS, and Fire TV, I can say with confidence that Android TV is the best option. In this article, I will explore the reasons why. The first and most important reason is the large number of applications available on Android TV. As both Android TV and Google TV are versions of Android, they have access to the vast range of apps available on the Google Play Store. This includes popular streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney+. Installing these apps is simple and intuitive, requiring only a few clicks. Even if an app is not available in the Google Play Store, there are other ways to install it manually. Such as downloading the APK on TV or sending it f...

Skip to content The majority of the most downloaded apps from Google Play Store have provided inconsistent answers about how safe user data is on their platforms, according to a report released by Mozilla on Thursday.  Mozilla, the not-for-profit organization behind the Firefox browser, looked at the 20 most popular paid and free apps in the Google Play app store for its report. It found that nearly 80 percent of the 40 apps reviewed had "some discrepancies" between the app's privacy policies and the information the app reported on Google's data safety form.   That form requires that apps declare how they collect and handle user data for apps available in the Google Play Store. The report then ranked those 40 apps on how transparently they disclosed their use of personal data....

By Wallace Witkowski Currently weak quarter places pressure on second half of year Unity Software Inc. shares dropped nearly 20% Thursday after Wall Street was skeptical of the gaming engine and app monetization company's full-year forecast given a currently weak quarter and shrinking ad spending. Unity (U) shares fell as much as 19% to an intraday low of $30.75, their worst drop since May 11, 2022, when shares plunged 37.1% after the company revealed a flaw in its ad targeting tools that it had once touted as a workaround to Apple Inc.'s (AAPL)opt-out of using Identifier for Advertisers, or IDFA, in its privacy update Late Wednesday, Unity's forecast fell short of the Street consensus, and while the company told shareholders it was not forecasting a recovery in the mobile games ad market in 2023, one would be dependent upon an improving economy. Unity forecast revenue of $470 million to $480 million for the first quarter, compared with the S...

A SERP analysis demands that you: Search for the desired keyword. Evaluate ...
