Blood Donors Needed as Nation, Region Grapple With Critical Shortage
Blood supplies across the nation and region have reached critically low levels and donations are urgently needed to continue to help critically ill patients everywhere. Donating blood is safe and more importantly, a life-saving gift. We all likely know someone who benefited from a blood transfusion. Blood and blood-derived products are used for infants in neonatal intensive care, people receiving cancer treatment, people who suffer traumatic injuries, and those who need surgery. The need is real and takes less than an hour of your time.
Pennsylvania Senate OKs bill to pause plans to toll bridges
Published
HARRISBURG - Republicans in Pennsylvania’s Senate are trying to make Gov. Tom Wolf’s administration start over on its plans to toll up to nine major bridges, approving a bill Tuesday to require the state Department of Transportation to undergo a new process that includes approval from the Legislature.
The bill passed the Republican-controlled chamber, 28-19, with the backing of every Republican and one Democrat.
The bill now goes to the Republican-controlled House of Representatives, but it may have a short life: Wolf opposes the bill, and the Senate lacks a veto-proof majority.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that it had learned of a seventh woman who developed a severe blood clot after being inoculated with the vaccine developed by Johnson & Johnson.
The revelation of the seventh blood clotting case comes as the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) debates whether or not the Johnson & Johnson vaccine should be used by the public or discontinued. The ACIP also met to discuss whether it could make an interim age or risk-factor based recommendation regarding the shot.
In the end, the committee came to the conclusion that it needed more information, and it felt it was inappropriate to release a definitive statement regarding the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
