- The number of deaths being attributed to the novel coronavirus has now exceeded 50,000.
Gizmodo reports Johns Hopkins University has been maintaining data regarding the virus.
The staggering figure comes mere days after the death toll soared past 40,000 earlier this week.
However, tracking the true number of positive cases and deaths from COVID-19 has proven difficult.
With limited testing, those who have died from the virus without a diagnosis are not counted.
The Johns Hopkins University tool uses data from multiple local and national health authorities.
The university tracks the spread of the disease, known cases, recoveries, and fatalities.

- Makers of household cleaners have taken an unusual step, according to Reuters.
Companies like Lysol and Clorox are urging people not to drink or inject their products.
This comes after U.S. President Trump suggested researchers try using them to cure COVID-19 patients.
Trump's idea was to inject bleach into the lungs of patients since bleach kills the virus on surfaces.
Reckitt Benckiser, the UK-based maker of Lysol and Dettol, issued the first warning.
“Under no circumstance should our disinfectant products be administered into the human body... through injection, ingestion or any other route.”
Clorox, a maker of bleach, soon followed by calling it critical to understand this can kill you.

- According to Nielsen, frozen french fry sales at grocery stores increased by 78.6% within a four-week period ending on April 4.
And like other pandemic grocery staples, according to Reuters, the increased french fry demand has caused a shortage in many U.S. supermarkets.
Some say that fries are an ideal pandemic staple, a comfort food that is convenient and has a long-shelf life.
The shortage may also be linked to what Reuters calls "America’s highly specialized and inflexible retail and foodservice supply chain."
Foodservice suppliers are facing challenges when trying to convert huge packages that are meant for restaurant and fast food kitchens into formats that are grocery store friendly.

The Academy Of Dermatology has launched a registry in order to track the toe lesions.
The registry is designed to show if the lesions are a true indicator of COVID-19.
Some physicinas theorize the lesions are a sign the virus is causing inflammation in the body.
Others, however, think the virus is inflaming the walls of blood vessels, resulting in “vasculitis.”
A third theory is that the lesions are caused by blood clots.

- CoronaVirus has changed toe world.
Business insiders report that many airlines say they will force social distancing on planes by leaving the middle seat open.
Ryanair's CEO says the airline will not fly if it is forced to keep middle seats empty.
Michael O'Leary told the Financial Times that the idea would be "entirely ineffective."
He also said the plan would make it impossible for the airline to make money while also not keeping passengers far enough apart anyway.
"We can't make money on 66% load factors."
"The middle seat doesn't deliver any social distancing, so it's kind of an idiotic idea that doesn't achieve anything anyway."

Cuomo was not having it.
"This is one of the really dumb ideas of all time," Cuomo shot back. He said the comments "incredibly short sighted."
"People died. 15,000 people died in New York, but they were predominately Democrats, so why should we help them? I mean for crying out loud."
"Let me go back to my self-proclaimed grim reaper, Senator McConnell."

- The novel coronavirus pandemic has thrown tens of millions of Americans abruptly out of work.
According to Business insider, filing for unemployment doesn't mean your credit score will automatically drop.
However, it can be impacted if you don't have an emergency fund and start living off your credit cards.
If you need to carry a balance, take action now to look for balance transfer opportunities that offer a lower interest rate.
However, be warned that if you've already lost your job, lenders are loathe to extend credit to people with no means of paying it back.
If that's the case, call each creditor and try to negotiate more flexible terms and a lower interest rate.

- Will warmer weather will slow COVID-19? People think it might, because the flu is transmitted much more easily in winter.
But the novel coronavirus COVID-19 isn't the same as the flu, and the susceptible pool of people who can be infected is much larger.
According to Business Insider, that means seasonality won't have as much of an impact until more people develop immunity to it.
In the meantime, physical distancing, PPE, and good hygiene will be much more effective in slowing the spread of the virus.

If so, Redfield warns things could get even worse.

- Description
- During the COVID-19 pandemic quasi-national lockdown, many people say the days are going by in a blur.
According to HuffPost, psychologists say there are a number of reasons for that.
Being in lockdown and suddenly being required to work from home is a huge disruption in most people's routine.
Also, if there are children around, the line between the workday and leisure time may be even more fuzzy.
Add that to anxiety, eating more junk food, and exercising less, and its likely to add up to disrupted sleep.
Psychologists say the most important thing to do is to create a new routine and stick to it. Include time for exercise, downtime, and family time.

The comments came during a conference call with analysts discussing Q1 2020 results. The airline lost $534 million in the first quarter of the year, mostly toward the end, and expects significantly worse performance for the second quarter.
