  • Many Minnesotans choose to stay masked, despite lifting of COVID-19 mask mandate

    May 27, 2021

    Stephanie and Cory Lake know what it's like to spend days and nights at their daughter's bedside, watching her take in oxygen with machine support while hoping she would start breathing on her own again. Twice before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Odette Lake, now 7, was hospitalized with serious breathing problems, including once after a viral infection. Her health issues were exacerbated by previously unknown allergies. Odette fully recovered both times, but the experiences left no doubt about...

  • Miguel Sano's three-run homer helps Twins sweep Orioles

    May 27, 2021

    Michael Pineda and Jorge Lopez had remarkably similar, yet distinctly divergent, outings on Wednesday. Both pitched six strong innings, with Pineda allowing three hits in his return from the injured list, and Lopez just four in his 10th start for the Orioles. Each pitcher made one major mistake, and it sailed out of the park. The difference: Two Twins were on base when Miguel Sano connected against Lopez. Nobody was on base when Trey Mancini took Pineda deep. Nobody ever is when Pineda is doing...

  • For some, virus immunity may last a lifetime

    May 27, 2021

    Immunity to the coronavirus lasts at least a year, possibly a lifetime, improving over time especially after vaccination, according to two new studies. The findings may help put to rest lingering fears that protection against the virus will be short-lived. Together, the studies suggest that most people who have recovered from COVID-19 and who were later immunized will not need boosters. Vaccinated people who were never infected most likely will need the shots, however, as will a minority who...
