FREDERICK, Md., Aug. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — The emergence of the novel coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2 and the resulting COVID‐19 pandemic has made the development of therapeutics, vaccines, and potential cures one of the scientific research community’s top priorities. XpressBio recently provided key products, including its COVID-19 S1/S2 microplate and ELISA reagents, to one of the world’s preeminent non-human primate research centers, the California National Primate Research Center (CNPRC), for a surveillance program to determine the viral status of its non‐human primate breeding colony at the University of California, Davis. XpressBio researcher William Boteler and his team also provided scientific consulting services, including a comparison of sample activities to a panel of Coronavirus antigens prepared in different cell lines.

One of seven such centers supported by the National Institutes of Health, the California National Primate Research Center has the nation’s best-characterized population of older primates—an important edge in evaluating how age affects the impact of coronavirus on vulnerable older adults with long-term conditions like hypertension and Type-2 diabetes. Considering the similarity between human and non-human primate physiology, especially with regard to respiratory systems and immune/aging patterns, the results from this study were integral in preserving and maintaining the colony’s health as well as providing information critical to the development of new COVID-19 drugs, therapies, and surgical procedures.

Approximately 2,450 animals are housed outdoors and 1,300 indoors at the CNPRC. A sentinel surveillance program to test at least 10% of the CNPRC colony– 385 animals housed in 73 different indoor rooms or outdoor enclosures—was conducted in March, April, and May 2020. 256 paired blood and swab samples were tested for SARS‐CoV‐2 antibody and RNA.

The study had important implications related to the epidemiology of SARS‐CoV‐2 in the human population and primate populations, risk of virus introduction and transmission, especially from asymptomatic carriers, and the most important components of effective infection control programs.

«Studies like this one are critically important to understanding how we can prevent and treat COVID-19, as well as future coronavirus outbreaks,» said XpressBio President and CEO Mo Hashemzadeh. «Information being gathered now will also be equally important in strategizing a more effective defense against potential new viral pandemics that may emerge in the future.»

STOCKTON, Calif., Aug. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — California criminal defense attorney Allen Sawyer of the Law Offices of Allen Sawyer announced today that Case # CR-2019-4210705 in San Joaquin County Superior Court was settled after District Attorney Tori Verber Salazar reduced the charges for his client from felony to misdemeanor.

At the start of the jury trial, Sawyer’s client, Brian W., faced charges of contacting a minor to commit a felony and of arranging a meeting with a minor for lewd purposes. Sawyer’s opening arguments, legal motions, and exposure of evidentiary issues contributed to the DA’s reduction of the charges to misdemeanor.

The arrest of, and the charges against, Brian W. stemmed from a police decoy scenario. In such scenarios a police officer posing as a worker for an escort service extends sexual services to a text responder. After an agreement is reached, the officer claims to be a minor. Text responders who still agree to meet for the purpose of sexual services are arrested. Such an arrest brings felony charges that carry serious state prison sentences as well as lifetime sex offender registration.

Sawyer said the victory came as a great relief for his client. «It went from a state prison case with lifetime registration to a misdemeanor with suspended fine and no additional jail time,» he said. «We are very pleased with the outcome.»

MESA, Ariz., Aug. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — mySongbird is modernizing the concert experience with its new concert streaming platform and restoring our planet through the power of music.

The music industry is changing, and mySongbird’s team, which together boasts over a century of experience across music, technology, and entertainment, rose to the challenge. Even before the coronavirus gripped the music industry, canceling tours and in-person concerts, streaming was on the rise. Now, in a post-COVID world, live-streaming is gaining even more steam, up 99% this year alone. mySongbird set out to fill the void and has created a revolutionary, sustainable company harnessing the power of music to change the world for the better.

The mySongbird model is a win for everyone. Subscribers will gain access to immersive experiences through a library of past, present and future shows across numerous languages and genres. Artists will enjoy connecting with more fans and earning more income. The planet will also benefit. A minimum of 20% of mySongbird’s EBITDA will be reinvested in companies or individuals who are working on technological solutions to ensure that Planet Earth lives on indefinitely. They will seek out the greatest ideas, help entrepreneurs in their start-up phases, fund the best of these companies, and assist in their growth.

mySongbird will begin hosting safely-distanced, intimate performances this fall, meeting fans where they are through television, phones, laptops, desktop computers, tablets and more. The performances will live on after the encore, with fans able to re-watch on the mySongbird site as well as on Dish, Sling and other platforms.

Founder and CEO, Michael Mountford, said, «I created mySongbird because I realized that people pay to attend a sporting event, and then come home to watch sports on TV, but this wasn’t the case for concerts. At the same time, I also thought about how a large portion of professional athletes’ income is derived from huge TV contracts, and again, this wasn’t the case for the music industry and musicians. mySongbird was the answer to solving both of these things, and I am excited to be able to support artists and fans all while giving back to our planet.»

By providing in-person and streamed concerts, and a massive genre-spanning library, the company is able to support artists and fans simultaneously with a professionally-produced, fully immersive style.

PELHAM, N.Y., Aug. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — More than 50% of US K-12 public school students will be attending school remotely to start the school year, according to a comprehensive, ongoing survey conducted by Burbio.com, a data service that aggregates school and community calendars nationwide. Specifically, 52% of students are projected to be learning online to start the year, 44% will be attending in-person either every day or certain days of the week, and 4% of students are in school districts that haven’t finalized plans.

«We have seen a dramatic shift to online only learning in the past three weeks,» said Burbio co-founder Julie Roche. «Large districts such as Chicago, and Sun Belt cities such as Houston and Miami along with large suburban districts such as Fairfax County Virginia were all setting plans to return with in-person learning and shifted to fully remote.»

Burbio’s data set consists of more than 80,000 K-12 school calendars across all 50 states and is dynamically updated as events are added or changed. For this initiative, Burbio actively monitors districts representing over 35,000 schools, including the 200 largest school districts in the U.S. District plans are reviewed every 72 hours to identify changes. School districts in the data set are a mix of sizes and distributed nationally in such a way to represent local decision-making across the country.

Size of district is a big factor in the approach districts are taking. The 200 largest districts are 66% virtual. The survey assumes New York City, the largest school district in the country, holds in-person schooling as announced and recently approved by Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

Breaking down the 44% in-person, approximately 19% of students nationally will be attending a hybrid format where students only attend certain days. Twenty five percent will go to school daily, meaning one quarter of K-12 public school students in the country will be attending school every day to start the year.

«We expect this situation to stay fluid for the entire academic year and we will continue to measure it,» said Roche. «Many districts have thresholds for Covid-19 levels that could result in converting back to remote learning. Other districts are planning to revisit the ‘on-line’ decision as soon as September and could convert to in-person models.»

WALNUT CREEK, Calif., Aug. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Conductiv™, the leading third-party spend optimization solutions provider, announced today an initiative to help healthcare providers better identify and increase their spend with local and minority-owned suppliers.

As local, minority-owned suppliers have struggled with the economic impact of COVID-19, and the public advocates for businesses that promote greater equality, Conductiv’s latest enhancement offers diverse suppliers an effective and proven way to grow their businesses, while enabling providers to encourage and promote diversity with their third-party service providers.

«Healthcare providers are looking to support a more diverse and inclusive roster of suppliers—including community-led minority-, women- and veteran-owned businesses—but it can often be difficult to identify diverse suppliers with capabilities needed within the healthcare industry,» said Conductiv CEO Chris Gormley. «Recognizing both the importance and need for national change in this moment, we immediately deployed a team of developers to create technology enhancements that enable Conductiv’s members to increase their percentage of spend with diverse and local suppliers. Studies have shown that population health and economic performance are correlated and hold influence over social and environmental outcomes.»

Conductiv will anchor this initiative by adding diversity analytics to its integrated third-party services optimization suite—allowing for immediate visibility of Tier 1 and Tier 2 local and minority-owned supplier spending and new suppliers. Customers will have the ability to precisely measure their diverse supplier spending and efficiently evaluate and activate new contracts with carefully vetted local, minority-owned suppliers from one platform.

Conductiv will also add local and regional GPO contracts with vetted diverse suppliers and illuminate diverse supplier GPO contracting opportunities based on a healthcare organization’s historic spend. For minority-owned suppliers, working with Conductiv Contracts provides an opportunity to grow their businesses with regional and national healthcare providers. A member advisory committee will guide these collective efforts and investments.

«We’re committed to helping healthcare supply chains increase their diversity and inclusion efforts by connecting them to high-quality minority-owned suppliers,» Gormley added. «Our members have indicated their challenges in differentiating diverse spend and finding qualified diverse suppliers. To solve these challenges, our team is building off Conductiv’s category-defining integrated purchased services optimization suite and strengthening our data sources to ensure this is a simple and advantageous feature for both healthcare providers and diverse suppliers.»

NEW YORK, Aug. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Q BioMed Inc. (OTCQB: QBIO), a commercial stage biotech company, announced today it is launching a Named Patient Program for its non-opioid bone metastases pain palliation drug, Strontium89 (Strontium Chloride Sr-89 Injection, USP). The Named Patient Program will be available to physicians and patients in the EU and throughout the world, and will be facilitated by Caligor Coghlan Pharma Services (CCPS).

Strontium89 is an FDA-approved, non-opioid radiopharmaceutical indicated for the treatment of painful skeletal metastases caused by cancer, and is agnostic of the primary tumor. Common primary tumors that metastasize to the bone include prostate, breast, lung, as well as others. In several multicenter, placebo-controlled trials in cancer patients with pain from bone metastases, pain relief occurred in more patients treated with a single injection of Strontium89 than in patients treated with an injection of placebo. Strontium89 is administered intravenously once every three months and for some patients can reduce or even eliminate the need for opioid analgesics; pain relief lasts from 2 – 5 months in most patients.

Use of Strontium89 in patients with evidence of seriously compromised bone marrow from previous therapy or disease infiltration is not recommended unless the potential benefit of the treatment outweighs its risks. Bone marrow toxicity is to be expected, particularly in white blood cells and platelets. The extent of toxicity is variable but effects are generally transient. In randomized studies of Strontium89, the majority of hematologic toxicity was mild to moderate (Grade 2 or less) and white blood cell and platelet counts remained within approximately 70% of pretreatment levels. For more information including Important Safety Information please visit the Strontium89 page on Qbiomed.com.

Over ten million people around the world suffer from pain associated with metastatic cancer in the bone and may benefit from Strontium89. For nearly two years, there has been little to no access to this vital therapy, after manufacturing ceased in December of 2018. Q BioMed is pleased that the Named Patient Program will ensure immediate global patient access to an important therapy for this patient population. In the meantime, Q BioMed is actively pursuing full regulatory and marketing approval for Strontium89 in all major markets worldwide.

Denis Corin, CEO of Q BioMed, said of the program, «We are very happy that Strontium89 is once again available worldwide, and that physicians have the ability to prescribe a safe, effective and non-opioid treatment to their bone metastasis pain patients regardless of their primary tumor type and notably beyond prostate cancer. We are actively working to ensure that Strontium89 is accessible to patients everywhere and to extend its relevance and use thorough additional clinical study.»
