A UK man with asthma was hospitalized for over 30 days with a COVID-19 infection. While intubated, he also developed pneumonia, anemia, and hypertension. Once doctors removed the man from his ventilator, his hearing deteriorated. This is an issue he had never experienced before, according to Business Insider. They gave him steroids to treat the hearing loss, and it improved slightly, but still remained. This is surprising for an otherwise healthy 45-year-old man and he is the first reported case of such an instance.
Two paintings by Vincent Van Gogh were recovered by anti-Mafia police in Naples last week, nearly 14 years after they were stolen from a museum in Amsterdam. Footage from the Italian Guardia di Finanza shows the discovery of the paintings after they were hidden in one of the houses of an international drug trafficker in Castellammare di Stabia, near Naples during a sting operation targeting organised crime. In 2002, the paintings were stolen from the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam, after thieves used a ladder and sledgehammer to break into the building. The works were valued at €89 million, or about $100 million, at the time. The masterpieces - View of the Sea at Scheveningen (1882) and Congregation Leaving the Reformed Church in Nuene (1884) - were painted early in the artists's career.
Dr. Balbir Singh, a cardiologist at the Medanta Medicity Hospital, successfully implanted a Micra Transcatheter Pacing System, or TPS, the world's smallest pacemaker, into a patient. Unlike normal pacemakers the TPS is small enough to implant directly into the heart using small instruments such as tines or prongs, allowing patients to walk out the hospital immediately after the procedure.
