The warehouse was converted into an isolation area for infected people during the 1918 flu pandemic. Photo: According to Live Science “The research results, although not directly applicable to the Covid-19 pandemic, show that humans can eventually overcome their variants. This is being expected by the world in the context of the corona virus outbreak. evolved with many dangerous mutations today,” evolutionary biologist Sébastien Calvignac-Spencer, lead author of the study, told Live Science. According to Spencer, as now, when focusing on studying the virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic, the research team questioned whether its new variants worked differently from the original? Since then, the team has studied six human lungs dating from the pandemic years of 1918, which are preserved in formalin at pathological archives in Germany and Austria. The researchers determined that three of the six sample lungs – two from young soldiers who died in Berlin, the other from a young woman who died in Munich – contained the 1918 flu virus. “The virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic is still around today. But it’s more attenuated, mainly because we are descendants of people who survived the outbreak 103 years ago. Because So we’ve inherited some form of genetic immunity,” explains Calvignac-Spencer. Estimates suggest that the 1918 strain of influenza infected about 1 billion people, while the global population was only 2 billion. About 50-100 million people may have died in three consecutive outbreaks then. The first wave of the pandemic occurred in early 1918, it was less deadly than later waves: “The preserved lungs of two German soldiers were determined to be dead at this time”, the research team at the Institute of Robert Koch confirmed. The researchers extracted viral RNA from those lung samples. Both German soldiers died on the same day and when decoding the genome of the virus that killed them there was almost no difference. Spencer added: “But the form of the flu virus found in the soldiers’ lungs, is somewhat genetically different from the form of the virus that infected the young woman who died in Munich. Presumably, the woman. did not survive a subsequent outbreak.” The scientists also compared viral genomes from the US and Germany, and conducted laboratory studies with synthetic copies of virus samples. They wanted to learn to assess the infectivity and replication ability of different strains inside cells. The findings of German scientists also show that the 1918 flu virus has mutated to make the next outbreak stronger and more dangerous than the previous one, by evolving to overcome the human ability to “defence”. The genetic mutations that emerged between the first and second waves may have made the virus better adapted for human-to-human transmission, rather than between birds, its natural host. The other mutation may have changed the way the virus interacts with a human protein called MxA, which helps regulate the body’s immune response to new pathogens. Although the scientists are not sure how the variants changed the “strength” of the virus, “it can be predicted that these changes helped the virus avoid one of the mechanisms by which cells respond.” to kill the flu virus,” Calvignac-Spencer said. The evolution of the virus that caused the 1918 flu pandemic has similarities to the current Covid-19 pandemic, such as consecutive outbreaks with many different strains, and the following outbreaks are more dangerous than the previous one. . Thanks to the advancement of science, today when understanding the Covid-19 pandemic, researchers can better understand the 1918 influenza pandemic: “The more we understand about the current pandemic, that The more we can understand the pandemic in the past, rather than vice versa,” Calvignac-Spencer emphasized. One significant advance is that researchers have been able to accurately sequence the viral genome in human tissue preserved in formalin for more than 100 years – something that has hitherto been thought to be very difficult. “Thanks to new techniques, the study ended up being much easier than we expected,” added Calvignac-Spencer, adding: “We can now sequence the viral genome from infected humans. buried in permafrost for up to 1,000 years, because the cold can help preserve DNA even longer.” The team of German scientists also wanted to sequence viral genomes that could have been stored in the bodies of ancient Egyptian mummies – the earliest mummies are about 5,000 years old.”The mummies were prepared to prevent biological processes, and that’s exactly what we want. So we will also embark on research to better understand other diseases of the past,” the German scientist said. about the group’s future plans.

An old and somewhat scary warehouse in the suburbs of Fitzroy in Melbourne (Germany) has been transformed into a fairy-tale house by EAT architects, headed by Eid Goh and Albert Mo. worker. The architect kept the outer surface of the warehouse, which was covered with vines interlaced on the walls as well as layers of dense trees in the yard so that occupants could feel one with nature. . The interior of the warehouse is redesigned in a modern style that the architect says: “The architecture is influenced by Venetian and Brazilian modernism anecdotes.” Accordingly, the main circulation space in the warehouse is divided into walkways leading to the inner courtyard, where there are dense vegetation and vines. The rust layer on the wall is also kept by the architect to create an old feeling for the warehouse. The ground floor of the warehouse is designed as a bar, where people can focus on eating and reading while the upper floor is the children’s bedroom area. “Old meets new everywhere, but the general feeling is that this is a home that has always been there. Tactile materials, natural colors and surfaces come together in a whole that feels comfortable and pleasant to the touch,” expressed the architect. A concrete core pillar in the center of the warehouse is fitted with a wooden staircase, leading to the laundry, bathroom and storage areas. The architect said that the usable details in the warehouse will be used to the fullest, combined with the interior with similar colors to create a unified whole but no less comfortable and new.

The owners of the apartment are a young couple, have an extroverted lifestyle, like to gather with friends at home, so they want the living room space to be as large as possible. They expressed to the designer that it is necessary to turn a bedroom into an office and have a connection with the living room, and turn the second bedroom into a place for friends to stay overnight. is a backup preparation for the future third member of the family. The master bedroom must be as comfortable as possible. Master bedroom with different views and walk in closet area. Thus, the needs and solutions are also quite clear from the owner, the remaining elements are proposed by the designer. When surveying the premises, the designer found that the storage area was right outside the door and this was not aesthetically pleasing. on the other hand, the closet area in the master room is too small. The designer proposed a solution to remove the existing warehouse and expand the dressing area of ​​the master bedroom. Living room space. Living room and dining table. Notably the wallpaper array, like a painting… Office corner. With the theme given by the owner to connect the office and living room together, the designer chose frameless sliding glass, so as not to see the division of space when closing the office space, At the same time, when it is necessary to expand the living room for friends gathering, the owner can open all the sliding doors and hide them in the two corners of the wall, thus maximizing the space according to the needs of use. With the master bedroom, the dressing area is also enlarged, containing more items, which also solves the aesthetic limitations compared to the unrenovated status quo, which is the warehouse right at the entrance to the apartment. The old kitchen turned into a bar and wine cabinet. The existing kitchen is located backwards. Contributing to the atmosphere of the apartment as well as the hospitable spirit of the owner is the renovation in the kitchen area. The previous outer kitchen was completely dismantled and turned into a bar, people could gather around to chat, drink wine… similarly, the old kitchen cabinets were replaced with wine cabinets. In the living room area, the TV wall is a small challenge for the owner for the designer, because they want this area to be very simple but also have a highlight and that must be created from lighting solutions. The designer proposed to make a decorative hanging cabinet system connected to the TV cabinet system, connecting two wall panels, the left array hangs a picture showing the owner’s style and the right side hangs the TV. The cabinet system on the wall can hold a lot of things inside, but it doesn’t look messy. The light lines are placed with a small intensity to create accents, when the homeowner wants to watch TV, this light will push the TV up as if it were floating on a light system. The wall next to the bar is glued with wallpaper imported from Italy, simple but no less luxurious. Thus, the renovation and new dressing solutions for the apartment have changed the appearance, function … just right with the needs of the owner’s enjoyment, while creating a modern and luxurious image… this is indeed. is a desirable space for many young people when starting a married life.

French photographer Jeremy Buchholz didn’t have the money to buy an apartment in Bordeaux, so he decided to buy an abandoned garage and turn it into a great hideaway. This old garage has a big corrugated iron door and inside is a messy, dirty room. So, Jeremy Buchholz called his friend architect Matthieu de Marien, who specializes in renovating shops, offices and other spaces into homes. The front of the garage was formerly a rusted white corrugated board and has now been replaced with a sturdy sliding wood panel. Stepping into the house, you will gasp in surprise. The living space is very cozy and beautifully decorated, different from the outside. To make the space feel larger, De Marien created a “home within a house”: a large piece of furniture that includes a small bathroom, bedroom, desk, wardrobe, chair sofa and storage. All space is designed in this large furniture box. The rest of the house is open plan with kitchen, dining area, living room and front yard. Indoor skylights both bring in more natural light and create a more open feel.

Place to save memories That old life recedes as quickly as possible into the past like a nap. That was the 70s and 80s of the last century, the time we could never forget with the busy days, the “big screen screen projection, earth theatrical performances” was very special. It was so innocently interesting and the “incidents” lingered in the cooperative’s storehouse full of memories. I remember vividly about the warehouse yards of the three villages of Tri Can, Kien Hung and Duong Hoa. The three cooperative warehouses are in three different villages, but the building style is very similar. When we were growing up, the warehouse was ever there. The yard is very large. All three are located in the center of three villages to facilitate collective activities when the village holds games on holidays, New Year and cultural performances between production teams when the planting season begins, The harvest is over … A movie screening session at the cooperative warehouse yard. (Artwork from the internet) Tri Can village is a warehouse of the second team as the center of three production teams: One, Two, Three. Kien Hung village is the warehouse yard belonging to Team Five, which is the center of four production teams: Bon, Nam, Sau, Bay and this is also the central warehouse yard of Thieu Hung commune. There is another yard in Duong Hoa village. This warehouse is centrally located in the production team 10 for 4 teams: Eight, Nine, Ten and Eleven. At that time, the warehouses at that time, during the rice harvest season, all the production teams of the three villages gathered rice for plucking. By the way, this yard is used to dry rice. During the season, rice was spread over the yard and the young men were assigned to guard the whole area. These days, my hometown is happy like the association, I think back to remember and regret it. The warehouse yard is also a place for mobile film projection teams and art troupes of the province to visit and perform for my hometown people to enjoy with neighboring communes whenever there is an emulation movement. Each warehouse yard is a row of solid and solid warehouses. The warehouse was built very big, very big, located inside the yard and arranged very tidily for the convenience of cars, tractors and oxcarts to pull in and out. The warehouse area has many large houses, used to store staple food, the door is tightly closed so that thieves cannot get in and steal, extending a few rows of headlines. The column is made of something that is difficult to peel off. It seems that the warehouse belongs to a rich farmer from a very distant childhood. The roof is tiled with fish scales, this type of tile is difficult to find nowadays, sometimes there are still a few houses left, but the moss is old and old. This tile roof, birds and bats love because this is the quietest place for them to live because the ceiling is very high, no one can play with. Warehouse fence walls are built with bricks, high green stones. On the wall of that fence, people planted many fragments of glass bottles. We dare not play with these glassware for fear of bleeding. Fear of ghosts – an interesting childhood fear At the end of the rice harvest season or there is no event, the warehouse yard will return to a quiet, dull look and only the rice plucking machine is waiting for another harvest season to come. The tranquility of the yard and the ventilation are the ideal places for our children to play. In the afternoon, we gathered to hop on the ground to measure and measure the length of the yard. Remembering the long yard, we jogged from the north to the south end of the yard tired. The yard is tiled with the red ship, the square brick next to the size of 30 cm, straight line. On this brick background, watching the screen projection on the big screen is very interesting. Because the yard was too large, the children gathered together to count how many rows and bricks would take a long time to finish. Tiles are glaring in the eyes. We are also kind of goofy, so we count the number of bricks for sweating to have a quiz about ice cream betting. Yet many of them also gave up, sometimes even adults. My grandmother heard us arguing about winning and losing about the number of bricks in the garlic-stained yard and immediately threatened: “The yard is hiding a lot of ghosts”. Hearing that, we all panicked and did not dare to go there to play anymore, hiding behind her and whispered: “Grandma, people build a very high wall! How can ghosts hide?”. She did not explain any more. Seeing her silent, we feared and skeptically thought of all sorts of things to weave, whispering loud and small. The fear made us feel even more that if anyone in the village died, it would be early evening that we would not dare to pass the door of our room any more. We believe she is right because she is the person with the most image of that warehouse yard. From then on, whenever we walked across that warehouse yard, no one would say anything to each other, so we could not dare to turn around, afraid to turn around and fear that we could not run. We got past the front yard of the courtyard, and we breathed a sigh of relief, our faces rustling. Many of us even came up with a way to walk across the yard by asking the dog to follow to ease our fear. But sometimes when passing by, I kept hearing the birds singing in the warehouse and the wind blowing even more scared. During the day I was scared to wonder what happened at night. Hello! We scrambled to go in the middle. If the ghost clings, there are people who go first and go after. So every mother sent to the edge of the pond to pick vegetables and it was a bit dark, she would make it up like this and that to avoid going through the yard of the warehouse where she said there were “ghosts”. Later we thought “what the hell are you afraid of? Let’s be a hero!” and just invite each other out to the warehouse to play hide and seek to delight. Time passed by, the warehouse yard in my three villages was gone. Instead, they are the homes of the people in my hometown. Now that the decades have passed, we remember forever the storage yard full of memories at that time when we were delighted to play on the drying ground of the cooperative, and also went to the cinema, opera, row … Sometimes I come back and hang around here in the language of my homeland.

Several girls in bikini, hand-passing the bottle of rose wine is already half empty. Next to that, a middle-aged man jumped so passionately that his back was wet with sweat. They all beam brightly, don’t wear masks, let alone social distance, follow New York Times. “This is the first and possibly the last dance. So I’ll enjoy it, ”shouted Nick Evans (28 years old), a legal advisor before immersing himself in the crowd. Party events in Liverpool are an attempt to test how feasible the reopening is in practice. Photo: Anthony Devlin / Getty. Since the Covid-19 pandemic hit the UK in March 2020, nightclubs have remained closed. If people want to, people have to go to illegal parties. Last summer, thousands of partygoers did this, giving UK police and lawmakers a headache. However, the situation may change soon. In February, Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that thanks to the rollout of the Covid-19 vaccine, he hopes all restrictions on social life in the country will be lifted by June 21. That would include allowing clubs to reopen, based on recent trials at Liverpool. Low risk Liverpool nightclub is the opening event of the aforementioned tests. After that, a pop concert for 5,000 people in the circus tent was also held in the city. Some scholars criticize these parties as the “human guinea pig experiment”, but scientist Iain Buchan from the University of Liverpool, who led the trial, confirmed the rate of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the UK. so low that the likelihood of an outbreak is very small. “According to official data, 69 cases of Covid-19 were reported in Liverpool in the week prior to the event. The risk of having someone virus-positive there could be 1 in 5,000, ”Buchan analyzed. In order to get inside, participants must take the Covid-19 test at one of the 4 official quarantine centers in Liverpool, then upload the results to the website to link with their ticket. However, once the screening was passed, the crowd attending the party freely acted as if a pandemic had never happened. Does not require wearing a mask, social distance, even using hand sanitizer. Participants must test Covid-19 and then upload the results to the website to link with their entry ticket. Photo: Carl Recine / Reuters. “It feels like Covid-19 never existed here. It’s strange and relieved to have the mask removed after a year of doing this, ”said Aidan Crisp (20 years old), a student. Adele Schofield (50 years old), a lawyer, said: “I was a bit worried before coming. But as soon as I entered, I almost burst into tears because I saw everyone dancing like everything was normal again, ”she said. Alice Mitchell (20 years old) said the only thing that surprised her was the ban on carrying hand sanitizer. A security guard made Mitchell throw it away while drinking. Buchan says the trials are about finding ways in which clubs can reopen. This includes whether people are satisfied with pre-testing and linking results to admission tickets; follow the movements of everyone inside; Uses sensors to check carbon dioxide levels and ventilation. Many people are happy to take off their masks to party in Liverpool. Photo: Carl Recine / Reuters. In March, Dutch researchers conducted a similar experiment with the participation of 1,300 party attendees. “They only see the masks for the first 5 minutes,” said Buchan. Then everyone just threw them away ”. The UK has more than 1,400 nightclubs, according to the Night Industry Association, which represents these types of entertainment venues. Many of them were forced to lay off staff because of the pandemic. Others have a chance to reopen. Fabric, London’s popular 1,500-person club, sold out tickets for a 42-hour reopening party starting June 25. The Cause, the London club, was also close to selling out tickets for the same event that weekend. Owners of four nightclubs in the UK say they welcome Liverpool’s experimentation, but feel it needs more to reflect the different types of spaces. “We are not a warehouse,” said Dan Beaumont, owner of the Dalston Superstore, London’s famous club for the LGBTQ + community. If British clubs were to reopen in June, this would be considered anomalous in Western Europe. In Berlin (Germany), entertainment venues are scheduled to reopen outdoors this summer when dancers are asked to wear masks. On April 29, French President Emmanuel Macron said he hopes to lift most of the restrictions in the country by June 30, but the nightclubs will remain closed. Many DJs have said they want clubs to reopen as soon as possible, not just because of their work. DJ Marea Stamper said after performing at the event in Liverpool: “We went to the nightclub to dance, drink, fall in love and meet friends. It creates communities and cutting it off is terrifying ”. In Liverpool, that sense of “community” was evident at 19:30 when Yousef Zahar, DJ and co-owner of the Circus event organizer, stepped onto the stage. In the first song, he included a house tune named When We Were Free. Then, when a green light shone through the crowd, Zahar played more cards Free (roughly translated: Free) , the hit of the ’90s. As soon as the chorus “You are free, do what you want”, paper fireworks were launched and the crowd began to sing along. For the rest of the night, they will follow the song’s advice. Paper fireworks exploded in the sky, scattered throughout the exciting party space. Photo: Anthony Devlin / Getty.

“ Renovating old warehouse for sun lover … I would like to start by saying that I am not an architect, have no expertise, I am simply a lover of a sunny, colorful and romantic space, so I created this space in 10 days from the empty storage space on the 5th floor. ” Warehouse space before renovation. (Photo: Phuong Anh Nguyen) “ Every decor is self-made and suitable for my living, the cost can not be accurately calculated because I fix all 4 floors and will share other floors for everyone later! I hope you guys won’t waste the space above you can see the city like this. “, shared account Phuong Anh Nguyen. The room has brought a completely new look. (Photo: Phuong Anh Nguyen) Accordingly, the status quo of the room is a storage room on the 5th floor divided into 2 compartments and surrounded by glass. To “molt” for this space, the owner of the house has carried out painting and fixing wooden floors for the entire room. Once completed, the old empty warehouse now has enough bedrooms, living room, kitchen and toilet area with a total cost of about 100 million. At first glance, if you do not say, people will think these are photos taken from a certain homestay with millions of like virtual living angles. From the bedroom comes a relaxing space filled with light and freshness of green plants. (Photo: Phuong Anh Nguyen) This place can be used as a “virtual living” extremely “chill” space. (Photo: Phuong Anh Nguyen) Main white tones create a sense of peace and lightness for the bedroom. (Photo: Phuong Anh Nguyen) Kitchen shelves made of wood material in harmony with the overall space. (Photo: Phuong Anh Nguyen) The bathroom and toilet are shared in the same space. Although not completely enclosed, the room still ensures privacy with the surrounding wooden wall.

Look at that love . ” – “ Small and beautiful things fascinate people. I love it! “, Thanh Thuy’s account is interesting. – “ Poetry always, no different from a homestay. Thank tus owner for ideas for those who cannot afford the condition but still want to decor for a level 4 house. “, shared account Hoang Tram.
