Topic : ANY AMOUNT OF RUNNING REDUCES RISK OF EARLY DEATH, study finds
Any amount of running is good for you, according to research suggesting it is linked to a similar reduction in the risk of early death no matter how many hours you clock up a week or how fast you go. According to the World Health Organization, about 3.2 million deaths each year are down to people not doing enough physical activity. Researchers say the latest findings push back against results from other studies that have hinted benefits increase with more running but might drop at very high levels. “Any amount of running, even just once a week, is better than no running, but higher doses of running may not necessarily be associated with greater mortality benefits,” the authors of the study write. The research, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, focuses on 14 previous studies based on six different groups of participants, totalling more than 230,000 people who were followed over periods ranging between 5.5‌ ‌and‌ ‌35‌ ‌years.‌ Read more HERE. ...

Topic : NEARLY 100,000 BRITONS THOUGHT TO BE RISKING DEATH FROM HEPATITIS C
Almost 100,000 Britons are at risk of dying because they do not know that they have the deadly liver disease hepatitis C, health officials are warning. An estimated 95,600 people in the UK, mainly drug users, are believed to be suffering from the disease but are unaware of the condition because they have not been diagnosed, said Public Health England (PHE) on Friday. Steve Mowle, of the Royal College of GPs, said: “It’s extremely concerning to hear that so many people have undiagnosed hepatitis C. It’s a dangerous disease for individual patients and a significant public health risk.” Nine in 10 people infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) inject recreational drugs such as heroin or have done so, according to a new PHE report on the condition. The virus is spread among drug users by sharing contaminated needles. Although heroin use by injection is declining, drug users in some parts of England are injecting other substances – such as stimulants, cocaine and crack – PHE has found. “These are associated with more frequent injection, more damage at the injection site and with the spread of viral and bacterial infection,” its report adds.

New   ‘CLIMATE OF FEAR’: NIGERIA INSTENSIFIES CRACKDOWN ON JOURNALISTS  
Activists warn muzzling of press under President Buhari could herald return to dark days of military rule
Fisayo Soyombo was eating an evening snack in Lagos in late October when a colleague called to warn him about a plan hatched by Nigerian government officials at a clandestine meeting to arrest him. Hours earlier, the second in a three-part undercover series by the Abuja-based investigative journalist on corruption in Nigeria’s criminal justice system had been published.“I made two more calls that night [to government sources] and it was clear I was in trouble,” Soyombo said. According to all three contacts, the government wanted to prosecute him under a law criminalising certain types of communication with inmates.
Soyombo pulled out of a public event he had travelled to Lagos for, and went into hiding.Had he been detained, Soyombo would have been the latest victim of a crackdown on the media and freedom of speech this year in Nigeria, which is 12th out of 13 on the Committee to Protect Journalists’ Impunity Index, a ranking of countries with the worst records of unsolved murders of journalists.
