A retail COVID-19 antibody test is now available through M Health Fairview that promotes 99% accuracy and offers an answer to all who believe they have already been infected with the coronavirus that causes the disease. While leaders of the Minneapolis-based health care system note that the results have limits, they expect broad interest from patients who have wondered for months whether their sniffles and breathing problems were related to COVID-19. "It helps alleviate a little bit of the...
Body-worn camera footage from former Minneapolis police officer Thomas Lane showed that George Floyd was given no explanation for why he was being questioned before Lane pointed a gun and swore at him, touched him multiple times and forced him out of his vehicle into the street. The court made footage captured by Lane and fellow fired officer J. Alexander Kueng publicly viewable Wednesday by appointment. Sixty-six spaces were made available at one-hour increments to watch the videos that...
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board voted Wednesday night to cut the number of encampments spread across the city's parks, significantly reducing two sprawling encampments at Powderhorn Park. The unanimous vote was prefaced by more than an hour of public comment in which dozens of residents protested against the homeless encampments, which they said have become the site of constant drug use, violence and other illicit behavior. Sexual assaults, fights and at least one shooting have been...
New York (CNN Business) - Walmart will require customers at all of its US stores to wear masks beginning next week, becoming the largest retailer to mandate facial coverings as coronavirus cases continue to rise. Other national chains made similar moves on Wednesday. Kroger and Kohl's announced they would start requiring all customers to wear masks, signaling that more retailers are lining up behind mask-wearing mandates. The National Retail Federation, the main lobbying group for the industry, also called on retailers to require masks for...
WASHINGTON – The Trump administration has ordered hospitals to bypass the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and send all coronavirus patient information to a central database in Washington beginning on Wednesday. The move has alarmed health experts who fear the data will be politicized or withheld from the public. The new instructions were posted in a little-noticed document on the Department of Health and Human Services website. From now on, the department - not the CDC - will c...
St. Paul police were investigating on Wednesday the city's 18th homicide. Officers found a man shot in the head about 5:45 p.m. near the intersection of Western Avenue N. and Concordia Avenue W. A large crowd had gathered, and a nurse was rendering aid. Paramedics were also on the way, but the man's injuries were so severe that nothing could be done to save him, police said. He died at the scene. While bystanders, medics and officers were trying to help the victim, other officers who were...
UnitedHealth Group's second-quarter profit jumped to $6.6 billion - double the earnings from the same period last year, and far beyond expectations - as the nation's largest health insurer paid out far fewer claims with the temporary shutdown of elective procedures due to COVID-19. The Minnetonka-based health care giant said Wednesday that profits were substantially higher than normal because of the unprecedented delay in elective and nonemergency procedures, as hospitals and clinics prepared...
MIAMI - California, Arizona, Texas and Florida together reported about 36,000 new coronavirus cases Wednesday as restrictions aimed at combating the spread of the pandemic took hold in the United States and around the world in an unsettling sign reminiscent of the dark days of April. The soaring counts of confirmed infections and a mounting death toll led the mayor of Los Angeles to declare that the nation's second-largest city is on the verge of resorting to a shutdown of all but essential...
WASHINGTON - Mail deliveries could be delayed by a day or more under cost-cutting efforts being imposed by the new postmaster general. The plan eliminates overtime for hundreds of thousands of postal workers and says employees must adopt a "different mindset" to ensure the Postal Service's survival during the coronavirus pandemic. Late trips will no longer be authorized. If postal distribution centers are running late, "they will keep the mail for the next day,'' Postal Service leaders say in a...
BISMARCK, N.D. — Leaders of the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation in North Dakota sued the federal government Wednesday due to a Department of Interior opinion that sides with the state over valuable mineral rights beneath a portion of a man-made lake on the Missouri River. The Three Affiliated Tribes’ lawsuit said the Interior Department is attempting to illegally take part of the Fort Berthold Indian reservation ceded to the tribe before statehood. The lawsuit seeks unspecified monetary damages. At stake is an estimated $100 million in unp...
BEMIDJI -- Out of concern for rising cases of the coronavirus recently, Ward 4 Bemidji City Council member Emelie Rivera brought forward the idea of creating a mask requirement during Monday's work session. "We need to keep our businesses open, and there were a lot of them closing recently," Rivera said. "We need to keep our family and our neighbors safe. We have CDC guidelines and guidelines from our state that tell us that masking is the way to go." According to its website, the Centers for...
ROCHESTER, Minn. — Seemingly chagrined by the news that Minnesotans can no longer enter New York, New Jersey or Connecticut without signing papers stating they will quarantine for 14 days, state health officials on Wednesday, July 15 used a scheduled press call to shake up the complacency in the community over the spread of COVID-19 in the state. Commissioner of Health Jan Malcolm began the hour with a stark reminder than at 3.4 million cases and 136,000 deaths, the United States has become an example for failure to prevent the spread of the i...
Many uninsured Minnesotans can get tested for COVID-19 at no cost to them during the federal public health emergency, thanks to a new health care option. The state will cover the cost of testing for individuals who apply and meet all of the following conditions: • Be a resident of Minnesota. • Be a U.S. citizen, U.S. national or lawfully present noncitizen with an immigration status that qualifies for Medical Assistance. • Provide their Social Security number unless they meet an exception for not having one. • Not be enrolled in any other h...
The White House finalized its rollback of one of the nation’s bedrock environmental laws Wednesday, with President Trump calling the law the “single biggest obstacle” to major construction projects. Critics say the rollback will gut the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), which for 50 years has required the government to weigh environmental and community concerns before approving pipelines, highways, drilling permits, new factories or any major action on federal lands. The changes from the Trump administration aim to streamline envir...
The United States is being ravaged by a deadly pandemic that is growing exponentially, overwhelming health care systems and costing thousands of lives, to say nothing of an economic recession that threatens to plague the nation for years to come. But the American public seems to be over the pandemic, eager to get kids back in schools, ready to hit the bar scene and hungry for Major League Baseball to play its abbreviated season. The startling divergence between the brutal reality of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the fantasy land of a forthcoming...
A dramatic slowdown in testing turnaround times is undermining the U.S. response to the coronavirus, rendering tools like contact tracing almost useless in some instances. Quest Diagnostics, one of the main companies doing coronavirus testing, said Monday that “soaring demand” due to the surge in cases across the South and Southwest had pushed back their average turnaround time for getting results of a coronavirus test to at least seven days for all but the highest priority patients. LabCorp, another major testing company, said last week tha...

July 15, 2020 (SAINT PAUL) — Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison today joined a coalition of 23 attorneys general in a lawsuit against Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos and the U.S. Department of Education, challenging their actions to unlawfully repeal the 2016 “borrower defense” regulations and replace them with regulations that do nothing more than benefit predatory for-profit schools at the expense of defrauded students. The lawsuit is the second that Attorney General Ellison filed in the last three weeks to challenge rules that...
