The most important thing Apple did NOT announce at its event. Four girls are raped every hour in Brazil, according to study. They detect water in a “super-earth”, potentially habitable. This is what you should know to start the day. First the truth.
1. Democrats want to offer medical care to undocumented immigrants
Democrats seeking the presidential candidacy have said they would support extending government health coverage to undocumented immigrants. At this time, undocumented immigrants do not qualify for Medicare, are not eligible for federal subsidies and, generally, cannot enroll in Medicaid, which provides coverage to low-income people. That is, today many paperless immigrants depend on emergency rooms when they get sick. That costs the federal government billions in reimbursements to hospitals. What is the panorama like and what would it mean to give them more coverage? We explain it to you.
2. Colombia denounced the Maduro government to the OAS
In the session of the Organization of American States, the Foreign Minister of Colombia, Carlos Holmes Trujillo, presented alleged evidence of the government's support of the questioned President Nicolás Maduro to armed dissident groups of the FARC and the ELN. So far, the Maduro Government has not ruled on the statements of the Colombian Foreign Minister. However, on previous occasions, the Foreign Minister of Venezuela, Jorge Arreaza, has dismissed the denunciations of Bogotá and has described them as lies.
3. Four girls are raped every hour in Brazil, according to study
In Brazil, four girls under 13 are raped every hour, and every two minutes the police receive a report of violence against women. Another finding of a new study published by the non-governmental organization Brazilian Public Security Forum is that Brazil, where more than 200 million people live, is already among the most dangerous places in the world to be a woman: femicides - that is, when a woman is killed for being a woman - they increased 4% last year from the previous year, even when the national homicide rate fell 10.8%. In 88% of cases, the perpetrator was the woman's partner or ex-partner.
4. Water detected in a potentially habitable “super earth”
The exoplanet, known as K2-18b, has eight times the mass of the Earth and is known as a super earth, or exoplanet between the mass of the Earth and Neptune. It orbits a red dwarf star 110 light years from Earth in the constellation Leo. The planet was first discovered in 2015 by NASA's Kepler spacecraft. A team of researchers, with archival data collected by the Hubble Space Telescope between 2016 and 2017, said they clearly saw the signature of water vapor in the atmosphere, something exciting because the exoplanet is also within the habitable zone of its star , which includes the correct temperatures so that there is liquid water on the surface of the planet and, possibly, can accommodate life as we understand it.
5. Erectile dysfunction can predict strokes and heart attacks
Compared to men without symptoms of impotence, men with erectile dysfunction have a 59% higher risk of coronary heart disease or atherosclerosis, a 34% higher risk of stroke, and a 33% higher risk of dying from any cause. This was found in a meta-analysis of studies on more than 150,000 men published in the specialized Journal of Sexual Medicine.
