Among individuals with kidney failure who received dialysis at clinics several times each week, COVID-19 risks were higher in patients who were older, had diabetes, lived in local communities with higher COVID-19 rates, and received dialysis at clinics that served a larger number of patients.
Risks were lower in patients who received dialysis in clinics with a higher number of available side rooms and that had mask policies for asymptomatic patients.
A cafe and shop have been dropped from plans for a new electric vehicle charging station in northern Powys, with a drive-through in its place. An outline planning application has now been lodged with Powys Council s planners for the new charging station on the outskirts of Four Crosses near Llanymynech. The application has been submitted by Mr Pryce to build a 360 square metre charging station at farmland near near the roundabout with the A483 main road. But it will not include a cafe and shop after local people objected to those proposals during a pre-application consultation period in February and March.
A RACEHORSE trainer is fearing for the future of his business over plans for a concrete crusher. Chris Gordon, based in Morestead, said he wanted to die at the yard he has been operating from since 2007. But a man named only as Mr Fowler has submitted plans for a concrete crusher at Unit 3 Morestead Farm – just a stone s throw from Mr Gordon s paddock. If the application is approved, the trainer would be forced to sell his land and move elsewhere. This is a massive thing for us, said Mr Gordon. Concrete crushers and racehorses simply do not go together. The stables here were made from reclaimed materials just after Word War One, and horses have been trained here for more than 65 years. When I looked to set up my business, I moved here to the South Downs because of the location: it is a lovely, healthy and quiet environment.
A view of former hotel Tyn Y Wern, Llangollen
Pic: In planning documents (clear for use by all partners) Plans to demolish a former Llangollen hotel in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to make way for a 16-home development have been rejected by county councillors. Full planning permission had been sought for the redevelopment of Tyn y Wern Hotel off the A5, and land adjacent to it. The former hotel had lain dormant for a number of years and previous development had been sought on the area. The hotel building is classed as a brownfield site and lies within the development boundary but only four of the homes planned lay within its curtilage.
