Canada Faces Pressure to Provide Safe Haven for America's Trans Community Following Trump's Gender Order

  In the wake of President Donald Trump's recent executive order, which mandates the recognition of only two sexes—male and female—there is growing pressure on the Canadian government to offer refuge to America's transgender community. The order, signed on Trump's first day back in office, has sparked widespread concern and backlash, particularly among LGBTQ+ advocates.

China Engages WHO Amid Rising HMPV Cases




The Chinese Foreign Ministry confirmed on Friday that it has been in close communication with the World Health Organization (WHO) regarding the recent surge in human metapneumovirus (HMPV) cases. The Chinese government emphasized its commitment to public health, both for its citizens and foreign nationals within the country.

HMPV, a respiratory virus that has been circulating in humans for over 60 years, typically causes symptoms similar to the common cold or flu. According to the latest report from China's Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), HMPV cases remain high, aligning with trends observed in other parts of the northern hemisphere.

The WHO has also been in contact with Chinese health officials and has not received any reports of unusual outbreak patterns. Both organizations continue to monitor the situation closely, ensuring that appropriate measures are in place to manage the spread of respiratory diseases.
