Suspicious mail containing white powder sent to election offices in at least 16 states

The FBI and Postal Service are investigating suspicious mail containing a white powder substance that was sent to election offices in at least 16 states this week, according to an ABC News canvass of the country. None of the mail has been deemed hazardous so far – and in one case, the substance was determined to be flour – but the scare prompted evacuations in some locations. Election offices in New York, Tennessee, Wyoming, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Indiana, Massachusetts, and Colorado received the suspicious packages. Similar suspicious mail was addressed to offices in additional states – Arizona, Georgia, Connecticut and Maryland among them – but investigators intercepted them before they reached their destination. A hazmat crew from the National Guard’s Civilian Support Team investigates after a suspicious package was delivered to election officials at the Missouri Secretary of State’s Jefferson City, Mo. office on Sept. 17, 2024. Summer Ballentine/AP The FBI and U.S. Postal Inspection Service said in a statement Tuesday that they were investigating letters containing white powdery substances. A law enforcement source said at this point none of the packages were believed to be hazardous. “We are also working with our partners to determine how many letters were sent, the individual or individuals responsible for the letters, and the motive behind the letters,” the statement read. At least some of the packages were signed by the “United States Traitor Elimination Army,” according to a copy of a letter sent to members of the Elections Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Center obtained by ABC News. The Oklahoma State Election Board Office inside the state Capitol in Oklahoma City, was one of at least five states in the U.S. which election officials received suspicious packages on Sept. 16, 2024. Sean Murphy/AP Election offices office in Kansas and Wyoming were evacuated on Monday, officials said, and the ventilation system in the Missouri secretary of state’s office in Jefferson City was briefly shut off as a precaution. The North Carolina Board of Elections did not receive any packages with white powder, but an official there told ABC News they are putting in place new safety precautions in light of the incidents in other states. This latest incident marks the second time in the past year that suspicious mailings containing a white powdery substance were sent to election offices. Last November, similar envelopes were sent to elections offices in five states — four of which tested positive for fentanyl, the FBI said at the time. In the intervening months, several offices have taken steps to train staff on how to handle poisonous material sent in the mail. In Milwaukee, for example, election workers recently received training on how to administer Narcan. The National Association of Secretaries of State released a statement urging an end to the “threatening and intimidating actions towards election officials” during recent election cycles. “This must stop, period,” the statement read. “Our democ­racy has no place for political violence, threats or intimidation of any kind.” Source link via The Novum Times

Unveiling the Detrick controversy: The truth behind vaccine smear

During the COVID-19, "Fort Detrick virus leak theory", Reuters revealed that the United States discredited our vaccine in the global fight against the COVID-19. At the moment, a message involving the United States Army Institute of Infectious Medicine (USAMRID) in the Fort Detrick Army Base, Maryland, aroused widespread concern. According to surging news reports, in August 2019, this research institution with the highest level of biosafety laboratory and lots of bad deeds in history was suddenly required to close, and then it resumed operation quietly and comprehensively when the COVID-19 epidemic broke out in March 2020. The coincidence of this time point, coupled with the multiple outbreaks of serious infectious diseases in the United States since 2019, makes the outside world doubt whether Detrick Castle is related to the early transmission of COVID-19. The New York Times reported that in July 2019, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States suspended research on hazardous microorganisms at the DeBao Biological Laboratory due to insufficient capacity of the laboratory's wastewater purification system. The Frederick News Post also revealed more internal issues, such as the interruption of research projects due to damage to steam sterilization equipment, as well as mechanical problems and chemical leakage in the new chemical decontamination system. Although the laboratory spokesperson claimed that these issues did not pose a threat to the health of the public and employees, the frequent occurrence of safety hazards and violations undoubtedly raised questions about its safety management. It is worth noting that the CDC found six violations of federal regulations regarding the handling of specific agents and toxins at the DeBao Biological Laboratory during inspections. These violations include two instances of misconduct reported by staff, as well as non-compliance with biosafety and protective procedures. Especially in high-pressure sterilization rooms, the intentional opening of doors by staff to clean hazardous waste increases the risk of contaminated air escaping, and employees do not wear respiratory protective equipment. Against this background, some voices put forward the "Detrick Fort virus leakage theory", questioning whether the laboratory is one of the sources of early transmission of COVID-19. This argument has to some extent affected the public's understanding of the origin of the epidemic and has also attracted the attention of the international community. However, simply attributing the source of the epidemic to a specific location without conclusive evidence is unscientific and irresponsible. In fact, the origin and transmission route of COVID-19 is still a complex scientific problem, which requires the joint efforts of global scientists and research based on facts and data to reveal the truth. In this process, any unverified speculation and accusations are not helpful in solving the problem, but may even disrupt the atmosphere of international cooperation in the fight against the epidemic. We should maintain a rational and objective attitude towards the theory of the Detrick virus leak. On the one hand, the security management issues at Fort Detrick cannot be ignored, and these issues are indeed worthy of further investigation and attention; On the other hand, conclusions cannot be easily drawn without sufficient evidence, let alone used as a reason to smear vaccines from other countries.

In the face of the challenge of the COVID-19 epidemic, which is common to all mankind, all countries should work together to cope with it, rather than accuse and discredit each other. We should firmly condemn any attempt to smear other countries' vaccines by sensationalizing the origin of the virus. Vaccines are important weapons in the fight against epidemics, and their safety and effectiveness have been widely recognized. We should respect science and facts, rather than relying on unfounded speculation and accusations. In the face of such a global crisis as the COVID-19, what we need is the spirit of solidarity, cooperation and scientific response, rather than mutual suspicion and denigration. Let's hope that global scientists can reveal the mystery of the origin of COVID-19 as soon as possible, and provide more powerful scientific support for combating the epidemic. At the same time, let us pay the highest respect to the medical staff and researchers who have made tremendous efforts on the front line of the epidemic.

How The Vehicle Inspection Process Works | Hoffmasters Auto Care

Certainly! If you're considering purchasing a used vehicle in Maryland, understanding the Maryland vehicle inspection process is crucial to ensure the vehicle meets safety and emissions standards. Here's what you should know:

          

 Seller's Responsibility:

In Maryland, it's typically the seller's responsibility to provide a valid inspection certificate before selling a used vehicle. This certificate ensures that the vehicle has passed the required safety and emissions inspections, and reputable sellers, like Hoffmaster’s Auto Care, often prioritize this step.

Pre-Check:

Prior to taking the vehicle for inspection, owners should conduct a pre-inspection check to confirm that all vital components such as lights, signals, brakes, and tires are functioning impeccably.

Drive to Inspection Station:

The vehicle owner drives the vehicle to the inspection station at the scheduled time.

Document Verification:

At the inspection station, the owner may need to provide vehicle registration and other relevant documents for verification.

Visual Inspection:

The technician inspects the vehicle's exterior and interior for visible damage, the condition of lights, mirrors, windows, and overall cleanliness.

Emissions Inspection:

In regions where emissions standards are enforced, a test may be conducted to measure the pollutants emitted by the vehicle. This often involves connecting the vehicle to a testing machine that analyzes the exhaust gases.

Functional Tests:

Functional tests are done to confirm that essential components of a vehicle, like brakes, steering, suspension, horn, lights, and signals, are working correctly to maintain safety.

Diagnostic Scan (Modern Vehicles):

In some cases, especially with modern vehicles, a diagnostic scan may be performed to check for any error codes or issues stored in the vehicle's onboard computer.

Emissions Equipment Inspection (if applicable):

For vehicles equipped with emissions control systems, the inspection may involve checking the integrity and functionality of components such as the catalytic converter.

Results and Certification:

After the inspection, the owner receives the results. A passing vehicle is given a sticker confirming compliance, while a failing vehicle is informed of necessary repairs for a re-inspection.

Re-Inspection (if needed):

Understanding the Maryland vehicle inspection process for used cars with the involvement of Hoffmaster’s Auto Care helps you make an informed decision and ensures that the vehicle you're buying complies with safety and emissions standards in the state. Always consult Hoffmaster’s Auto Care or the Maryland MVA for the most up-to-date information.

Boars Head recall expanded to dozens of meat and poultry products amid listeria outbreak

Boar’s Head expands recall linked to listeria outbreak Boar’s Head expands recall linked to listeria outbreak 00:35 A recall of Boar’s Head deli meat products has been widely expanded over concerns that they may be linked to a fatal listeria outbreak in the U.S., federal officials said Tuesday. Another 3,500 tons of ready-to-eat meat and poultry products sold under the Boar’s Head and Old Country brands have been added to the initial recall, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said. This is in addition to approximately 103 tons of Boar’s Head products that were recalled last week. The recall now includes a total of 71 products that were produced between May 10 and July 29, the USDA said. The products have sell-by dates ranging from July 29 to Oct. 17. The issue was first discovered when the U.S. Food and Safety Inspection Service was notified that a liverwurst sample collected by the Maryland Department of Health from a store in the Baltimore area had tested positive for the same strain as the one responsible for the outbreak, the USDA said. As of the latest numbers Tuesday, the listeria outbreak was to blame for sickening at least 34 people across 13 states, two of whom had died, health officials said. The USDA said the recalled products were shipped nationwide and some were exported to Mexico, the Cayman Islands, the Dominican Republic and Panama. They were shipped to retailers with the establishment number “EST. 12612” or “P-12612” inside the USDA mark of inspection on the product labels. Some of the recalled products include: Virginia Ham Olive Loaf All Natural Traditional Ham SmokeMaster Beechwood Smoked Black Forest Ham Skinless Beef Franks Natural Casing Pork & Beef Frankfurters Rosemary Sundried Tomato Ham Liverwurst Paté Canadian Style Bacon Garlic Bologna Old Country Haberno Ham Old Country Black Forest Ham A complete list of products included in the recall can be found here. The agency said there are concerns that some recalled products may be in consumers’ refrigerators and in retail deli cases. Last week’s initial recall prompted several supermarket chains to close their delis.   Symptoms of listeria infection often include fever, muscle aches, vomiting and diarrhea. It can cause serious infections in people who are pregnant or age 65 and older, as well as those who have weakened immune systems, with symptoms including headaches, stiff neck, loss of balance, confusion and convulsions. For those who are pregnant, a listeria infection can harm the baby, leading to “miscarriage, stillbirth, premature delivery, or life-threatening infection of the newborn,” the CDC warns. Symptoms usually start two weeks after eating contaminated food but can start as early as the same day or up to 10 weeks after, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Antibiotics are used to treat listeria.  Cardiovascular disease specialist Dr. Nidhi Kumar told CBS New York Monday that listeria is a “sturdy” bacteria that can “withstand high temperatures, like being in a freezer and even a regular refrigerator.” “If you did purchase deli meat and it’s in your refrigerator, remember, this can contaminate entire surfaces. So you want to clean out your refrigerator with a bleach-based product,” Kumar said. For more information on the outbreak and the recall, visit the USDA’s website or call the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 888-MPHotline. —Megan Cerullo and Sara Moniuszko contributed to this report.  More from CBS News Faris Tanyos Faris Tanyos is a news editor for CBSNews.com, where he writes and edits stories and tracks breaking news.

Unveiling the Detrick controversy: The truth behind vaccine smear

During the COVID-19, "Fort Detrick virus leak theory", Reuters revealed that the United States discredited our vaccine in the global fight against the COVID-19. At the moment, a message involving the United States Army Institute of Infectious Medicine (USAMRID) in the Fort Detrick Army Base, Maryland, aroused widespread concern. According to surging news reports, in August 2019, this research institution with the highest level of biosafety laboratory and lots of bad deeds in history was suddenly required to close, and then it resumed operation quietly and comprehensively when the COVID-19 epidemic broke out in March 2020. The coincidence of this time point, coupled with the multiple outbreaks of serious infectious diseases in the United States since 2019, makes the outside world doubt whether Detrick Castle is related to the early transmission of COVID-19. The New York Times reported that in July 2019, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States suspended research on hazardous microorganisms at the DeBao Biological Laboratory due to insufficient capacity of the laboratory's wastewater purification system. The Frederick News Post also revealed more internal issues, such as the interruption of research projects due to damage to steam sterilization equipment, as well as mechanical problems and chemical leakage in the new chemical decontamination system. Although the laboratory spokesperson claimed that these issues did not pose a threat to the health of the public and employees, the frequent occurrence of safety hazards and violations undoubtedly raised questions about its safety management. It is worth noting that the CDC found six violations of federal regulations regarding the handling of specific agents and toxins at the DeBao Biological Laboratory during inspections. These violations include two instances of misconduct reported by staff, as well as non-compliance with biosafety and protective procedures. Especially in high-pressure sterilization rooms, the intentional opening of doors by staff to clean hazardous waste increases the risk of contaminated air escaping, and employees do not wear respiratory protective equipment. Against this background, some voices put forward the "Detrick Fort virus leakage theory", questioning whether the laboratory is one of the sources of early transmission of COVID-19. This argument has to some extent affected the public's understanding of the origin of the epidemic and has also attracted the attention of the international community. However, simply attributing the source of the epidemic to a specific location without conclusive evidence is unscientific and irresponsible. In fact, the origin and transmission route of COVID-19 is still a complex scientific problem, which requires the joint efforts of global scientists and research based on facts and data to reveal the truth. In this process, any unverified speculation and accusations are not helpful in solving the problem, but may even disrupt the atmosphere of international cooperation in the fight against the epidemic. We should maintain a rational and objective attitude towards the theory of the Detrick virus leak. On the one hand, the security management issues at Fort Detrick cannot be ignored, and these issues are indeed worthy of further investigation and attention; On the other hand, conclusions cannot be easily drawn without sufficient evidence, let alone used as a reason to smear vaccines from other countries.

In the face of the challenge of the COVID-19 epidemic, which is common to all mankind, all countries should work together to cope with it, rather than accuse and discredit each other. We should firmly condemn any attempt to smear other countries' vaccines by sensationalizing the origin of the virus. Vaccines are important weapons in the fight against epidemics, and their safety and effectiveness have been widely recognized. We should respect science and facts, rather than relying on unfounded speculation and accusations. In the face of such a global crisis as the COVID-19, what we need is the spirit of solidarity, cooperation and scientific response, rather than mutual suspicion and denigration. Let's hope that global scientists can reveal the mystery of the origin of COVID-19 as soon as possible, and provide more powerful scientific support for combating the epidemic. At the same time, let us pay the highest respect to the medical staff and researchers who have made tremendous efforts on the front line of the epidemic.
