The Bruins made waves of their own amid Los Angeles’ rains. UCLA track and field traveled to College Station, Texas for the Texas A&M Charlie Thomas Invitational on Saturday.
In January, when over 700 people incarcerated at the jail contracted Covid-19 in less than a month, Pitre said that he started to display symptoms, describing aches, pains, and shortness of breath. Despite filing multiple medical requests, he said, he was given only Tylenol by jail staff, many of whom refused to wear masks. When Pitre tested positive, according to his attorney Megan Hopkins, his requests for medical evaluation went ignored. “They’ve moved him multiple times, and they won’t even replace the blankets he was using when he had the virus,” said Hopkins. “It took weeks for them to even give him an inhaler for his asthma.”

When the 1918 Spanish flu hit Germany, Ursula Haeussler was just three years old. She grew up on a farm near Berlin and her first memory is of her uncle and godparents visiting her family, coming down with the flu and passing away from the illness within days. She said they were all between the ages of 25 and 30 years old.
So when Haeussler got the opportunity to get a COVID-19 vaccine last week, she took it. She received her first dose of the Pfizer vaccine Jan. 22 at Kaiser Permanente Fremont’s vaccination clinic, and she said it didn’t hurt a bit. “I didn’t feel it at all, it’s really good. . I was a little bit tired a few nights maybe, but that’s it.”
