WASHINGTON, Aug. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — «As we continue to see surges of COVID-19 cases in Hispanic communities, we thank the Committee of 100 (C100) for their generous donation of over 60,000 FDA Approved Surgical N95 Respirator Masks to 15 of our member agencies delivering front-line COVID-19 health…

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — «As we continue to see surges of COVID-19 cases in Hispanic communities, we thank the Committee of 100 (C100) for their generous donation of over 60,000 FDA Approved Surgical N95 Respirator Masks to 15 of our member agencies delivering front-line COVID-19 health and mental health services. More than ever we need to support each other,» said Jane L. Delgado, PhD, MS, President and CEO of the National Alliance for Hispanic Health (the Alliance).

Rates of COVID-19 are more than 3 times higher for Hispanics than non-Hispanic Whites and the need for personal protective equipment (PPE) is critical for those providing front-line care to affected communities. The need for PPE has been the subject of Senate Finance Committee hearings last week and is a part of the House passed HEROES Act and the HEAL Act being considered in the Senate to address the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

«C100 is proud to provide much-needed PPE to health and mental health community agencies in Hispanic communities and communities of color where people are bearing the brunt of the pandemic,» said Zhengyu Huang, President, C100. «We’re grateful for the Alliance’s partnership to help underserved people and create an allyship between Hispanics and Chinese Americans.»

«All our health care workers deserve the PPE they need to continue to deliver care during this pandemic as well as protect their health and that of their colleagues, families, and communities. This donation helps Alliance members meet their mission and helps ensure that no case of COVID-19 is spread simply because a health care worker did not have a protective mask,» concluded Dr. Delgado.

Note to Editors: Individuals who need COVID-19 or other health related services can call the Alliance’s bilingual (Spanish and English) toll-free Su Familia Helpline at 1-866-783-2645 for referral to services in their community or visit www.healthyamericas.org (English) or www.nuestrasalud.org (Spanish) for the latest in COVID-19 information.

Blinds.com Expands Cellular Shades Collection to Fit All Window Shapes and Sizes

HOUSTON, Aug. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Blinds.com, a Home Depot company, announces an expansion to its popular cellular shades collection to feature a complete, integrated system that is designed to cover any type of window in the home.

<img id="prnejpg9fbbleft" title=" " border="0" alt=" " align="middle" imagelabel="General"…

HOUSTON, Aug. 5, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Blinds.com, a Home Depot company, announces an expansion to its popular cellular shades collection to feature a complete, integrated system that is designed to cover any type of window in the home.

With this new expansion of the Blinds.com Cellular Shades Collection, customers can choose from the most extensive upgrade selection offered by Blinds.com. Suited for not only traditional windows, these upgradeable and customizable cellular shades are an ideal choice for difficult-to-reach windows, homes with children or pets, or oddly shaped windows such as perfect arches or French doors.

«We’re doing the hard work for our customers to make it easy for them to treat all their windows at once,» says Amber Hall, vice president of merchandising at Blinds.com. «This isn’t just one single new upgrade option or a new color to choose from. This new cellular shade expansion represents a unified ecosystem of our most extensive and flexible upgrades.»

ONE STYLE FITS ALL

In the past, specialty windows required different products to fit various sizes and shapes, potentially resulting in a mismatched color selection. This latest cellular shade innovation makes it easy to treat not only standard windows, but also arched windows, skylights, patio doors, and French doors.

For example, French doors were previously difficult to hold window treatments due to the obstruction of door handles and minimum depth requirements. For the first time ever, Blinds.com now offers a cellular shade upgrade specifically designed to treat French door windows. With the French door upgrade, your cellular shades will fit neatly into a small frame that hides the operating mechanisms and holds the shades close to the door, eliminating the awkward swinging previously seen when treating French door windows.

WINDOW TREATMENT UPGRADES FOR ANY HOME

It has never been easier to outfit window treatments to exact needs and specifications. Upgrading cellular shades with customizable options can enhance any lifestyle or room.

As one of the most popular window treatment upgrades, motorized shades provide the ultimate in convenience, allowing you to raise or lower your cellular shades with just the press of a button. Motorized cellular shades are a great fit for media rooms to eliminate unwanted glare, or bedrooms to block the early sun. They’re also cordless, making them a safer choice for homes with children or pets.

Customers can also enjoy the benefits of cordless operation without motorization. A cordless lift enhances a room’s appearance by eliminating the visual distraction of unsightly cords, leaving windows with clear, unobstructed views.

This new expansion features these additional optional upgrades:

  • Continuous Cord Loop
  • Top Down/Bottom Up
  • 2/1 Headrail
  • Opacities from Light-Filtering to Blackout
  • Smart Release
  • XL Pleat Sizes
  • Double or Single Cell

RAINBOW OF COLORS

In addition to new upgrades, this latest expansion of cellular shades features a stunning array of new color options. Inspired by natural beauty, these new cellular shades can make a bold stylistic choice or subtly complement your favorite piece of furniture.

From botanical colors such as carnation, chamomile and spearmint to warm and cool options such as frost, candlelight and Baltic blue, this vast selection of fresh colors touches every shade of the spectrum.

The new cellular shades expansion also takes curb appeal into consideration. No matter which color you choose, the sides of the shades facing the street will all be the same neutral color, meaning that mismatched windows will no longer be seen from the outside.

I saw the struggles that I thought were very difficult, but to my amazement, I saw and discovered that each day is a tumultuous world in which the daily things of life are not as they were in my childhood, adolescence, and youth. And with the analysis, I thought about sharing with others my ways with Little Juan because perhaps they are a guide for the times of more battles for a more modern society where centennial electronics has been enriched, destroying the hope that there is no valid reason, and that we cannot live better, sowing the dream of a tomorrow of hope. There are struggles; it is real. But it is up to us to create the silent change within us and to find the beautiful dawns of life and to enjoy that not everything is sad or gray and that there are still beautiful sunrises.»

RCA is recruiting volunteers to participate in these clinical trials, working with the Federal Government and many major Pharmaceutical Companies, which developed a vaccine to potentially prevent COVID-19. 

Dr. Howard Schwartz, Chief Medical Officer at Research Centers of America, met with several news media channels and was also part of a roundtable discussion with Vice President Mike Pence, school leaders and members of the Miller School of Medicine, along with several other researchers working to end the ongoing battle against the Coronavirus.

The first trial will be for Moderna, which is expected to enroll approximately 30,000 participants in the United States. RCA will recruit between 300 to 500 participants for Moderna’s trial alone. 

Moderna (July 27th Press Release): 

«The Phase 3 study protocol follows the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidance on clinical trial design for COVID-19 vaccine studies. The randomized, placebo-controlled trial is expected to include approximately 30,000 participants in the United States, testing an mRNA-1273 dosage of 100 µg. The primary endpoint will be the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19 disease. Key secondary endpoints include prevention of severe COVID-19 disease (as defined by the need for hospitalization) and prevention of infection by SARS-CoV-2 regardless of symptomology. SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19. 

The primary efficacy analysis of the Phase 3 study will be an event-driven analysis, based on the number of participants with symptomatic COVID-19 disease. To ensure the ongoing safety and monitoring of the participants in the trial, data will be reviewed by an independent Data and Safety Monitoring Board organized by NIAID throughout the study. The clinicaltrials.gov identifier is NCT04470427.»

Zephyrhills Brand will give «Good News Grants» to organizations that focus on sustainability, recycling, environment and wildlife, human services, food security, community development, disaster relief, education, youth services, and more. In total, the company will be donating $122,000 in good news grants to 104 local organizations – ‘1K Per Day‘ grants to 102 different organizations, plus two $10,000 sustainability grants to organizations helping to preserve the Florida we know and love through their work in the sustainability space.

I’m 100% Recyclable» on the 8oz, 12oz, .5L, 20oz, 700mL, 1L, and 1.5L bottles. The applicable bottle sizes will also have an additional «100% Recycled» message, letting consumers know those bottles are made of recycled plastic. By accelerating the use of rPET in its bottles, NWNA is helping to create an end-market for sustainable rPET, demonstrating a circular economy is achievable as the company strives for a waste-free future.

To celebrate organizations that are also committed to preserving the natural beauty of Florida, Zephyrhills Brand will designate each Tuesday throughout the Feel-Good Movement to be «Not Trash Tuesdays» and will issue grants and promote a different local organization each week that is dedicated to advancing the state’s recycling and sustainability efforts. Lastly, Zephyrhills Brand will conclude the Feel-Good Movement by working with The Recycling Partnership to select a recipient for the final $10,000 sustainability grant on November 15, America Recycles Day.
