偵測到電線失火時在十分之一秒內自動斷電功能 PG&E 承諾改善客戶服務，為學校、醫院以及有行動或功能需求者提供可攜式電源 【三藩市訊】隨著加州森林大火不斷上升的風險，太平洋煤電公司（PG&E）將擴大使用先進技術的範圍，如果偵測到電力系統有潛在威脅（如樹枝掉落在電線上），就會在十分之一秒內切斷電源。於 2021 年 7 月推出的試驗方案 Enhanced Powerline Safety Settings（EPSS），今年將會擴及高火災威脅區域的所有配電線。 去年截至 2021 年 12 月 31 日止，這些強化的安全設置降低了California Public Utilites Commision-對 High Fire-Threat District（HFTD）區內啟用的 EPSS 電路起火的通報率達 80%。這是與前三年超過 11,500 英哩的 HFTD 平均值相比。 「在努力實現無公用設施引發森林大火這個目標的同時，我們體認到，這些面臨最大威脅地區的電線有部署這些强化安全設置的迫切需要，」PG&E 傳輸與配送系統運作副總裁 Mark Quinlan 說。「與本公司 2022 年其他森林大火預防工作配合，包括開始將10,000 英哩的電線埋入地下，並安裝更多氣象站、高解析度攝影機和和微電網，擴大這些先進安全設置範圍，將有助於讓客戶使用我們的系統更安全。」 今年，PG&E 預定在公司服務區域以及選定的鄰近區域內讓計畫擴及整個 25,500 英哩的 HFTD 供電線路。公共安全斷電是當預測面臨強風等惡劣天氣條件時使用的最後措施，相比之下，EPSS 更能有效應付極端乾燥燃料造成電線故障而更可能引發火災的各種情況。 （觀看影片內容是關於 PG&E 在 San Ramon 的應用科技服務實驗室持續進行的安全設置測試。） 強化客戶支援 雖然這些新安全設置讓電力系統更安全，但是迅速自動切斷電源則會造成客戶停電。PG&E 正努力降低停電並提供更多資源給受影響的客戶。在 2021 年試驗期間，在最佳化設備並提高恢復過程的效率後，在啟用 EPSS 電路上的客戶停電時間平均減少了 …

Antiviral medications are a method of treating infections that reduces viral load, increases immunity, and reduces symptoms. There are currently three antiviral drugs available to symptomatic adults with confirmed cases of COVID-19—two are oral and one is intravenous.
Earlier in 2022, the two oral antiviral treatments were given Emergency Use Authorization for treating mild to moderate outpatient cases of COVID-19. These antiviral treatments—Paxlovid and molnupiravir—must be taken within 5 days of symptoms starting and a person must have a confirmed COVID-19 infection to be prescribed. The NIH notes that “Because viral replication may be particularly active early in …

On April 13, the Washington State Board of Health (SBOH) voted not to include the COVID-19 vaccine in schools’ immunization requirements. Since 1979, Washington state law has required school children to receive certain vaccines before attending school or day care. The SBOH uses a careful review process before deciding which vaccines are required. Currently vaccines against hepatitis B, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, measles, mumps, rubella, and chickenpox (varicella) are required for all students.
The Board worked with immunization stakeholders from public health, schools, childcare, medicine, epidemiology, child advocacy, medical ethics, and families to develop standards for decisions on vaccine mandates. In general, the Board concluded that vaccine requirements for schoolchildren are justified if not having them: Compromises the state’s obligation to protect public health and safety Means individual decisions jeopardize others’ health Threatens the …

Research Shows That the COVID-19 Vaccine Does Not Impact Pregnancy — But a COVID-19 Infection Might.

In a Boston University study of 2,000 couples examining the effects of COVID-19 on fertility, scientists found that the vaccine has no impact on the ability to conceive. Additionally, scientists found no difference in the likelihood of conception between couples in which either partner …
