Salmonella: CDC urges Americans not to kiss chickens amid outbreak

 The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has urged people to refrain from kissing live poultry amid an outbreak of salmonella.

The CDC and public health officials are investigating salmonella outbreaks after 163 people were reported ill in 43 states.

The infections have been linked to contact with backyard poultry.

"Don't kiss or snuggle the birds, as this can spread germs to your mouth and make you sick," the health agency said.

It warned that poultry, like chicken and ducks, can carry salmonella germs even if they look healthy and clean, and these germs can easily spread in areas where they live and roam.

Infection can cause fever, diarrhoea, stomach pain and vomiting. Most people recover without treatment, but more severe cases can cause death.

According to the CDC, one-third of the people reported ill in the recent outbreaks have been under the age of five.

Some 34 people have been taken to hospital since mid-February, but no deaths have been reported.

The CDC's advice also includes washing hands after coming into contact with poultry, and preventing children from touching the birds.

It estimates that salmonella bacteria - which can be found in raw or undercooked meat, eggs or other food products - causes about 1.35 million infections in the US every year, and 420 deaths.

The CDC is the US public agency in charge of issuing health advice; last week for example, it changed the guidance on face masks, saying that people who had been fully vaccinated against Covid-19 no longer needed them in most places.

Virgin Galactic rocket plane flies to edge of space

 Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic space plane has conducted the first of three key test flights that should enable it to enter commercial service. The Unity vehicle, with pilots Dave Mackay and CJ Sturckow at the controls, powered to a height of 89km (55 miles), and then glided back down to Earth. Sir Richard has some 600 paying customers - including movie and music stars - waiting to take the same ride. But they'll only get their chance once Unity is fully licensed. That ought, finally, to happen by the year's end. The licensing process is the responsibility of the US Federal Aviation Authority (FAA), who will now receive operational and performance data from Saturday's sortie high above the New Mexico desert. Officials will want to see, for example, that an electronic interference issue that aborted a previous flight attempt in December, has been corrected. On the evidence of Saturday's successful flight, it has been.     Russia picks team for movie shot on s

Tennessee cops mocked dying man's plea: 'I can't breathe'

 A US jail inmate died gasping for breath minutes after police officers held him face down, with one taunting: "You shouldn't be able to breathe." New footage from the Tennessee facility shows how William Jennette, 48, was pinned down and tied a year ago. "Help me," he pleaded with other staff at Marshall County Jail in Lewisburg, "they're going to kill me." Asphyxia was listed as "a contributory cause of death" due to officers' use of the prone restraint. Mr Jennette's official post-mortem examination was ruled a homicide, with "acute combined drug intoxication" also listed by the medical examiner as a cause of death. The prone restraint was most recently under scrutiny in the police murder of George Floyd, a black man in Minneapolis, Minnesota, last year, 19 days after the death of Mr Jennette. The daughter of Mr Jennette, who was white, has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit over law enforcement practices in the fat
