The anonymous complaints accuse Manchur of expensing trips and using hospital network funds to remodel his home, and involve Weigley’s automobile expenses, among other things.

Superbug fungus cases rose dramatically during pandemic | HealthNews
The fungus, Candida auris, can be a fatal risk to fragile hospital and nursing home patients.
Cases of a dangerous fungus tripled in the United States over just three years and more than half of the states have now reported it, according to a new study.
The COVID-19 pandemic likely drove part of the increase, researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) wrote in a paper published on Monday by Annals of Internal Medicine.

COVID: How different variants affected Canadian children
A new study of more than 1,400 Canadian children who contracted COVID-19 found that fever and cough were associated more heavily with Omicron and Delta variants, but that serious outcomes like hospitalization and being moved to the intensive care unit remained even across all variants.
The fact that rates of hospitalization and being moved to the intensive care unit remained stable even with later variants could be a sign that when it comes to children, the virus is not getting milder, researchers said.
“Unlike in adults, it does not appear that children are being less severely affected by emerging variants,…
