A lingering coronavirus can cause long-term damage to multiple organs, according to a new British study published in the journal Lancet.

The study included data on 259 patients discharged from the hospital after being diagnosed with COVID-19 and 52 participants in a control group without COVID-19 in the UK.

Those who recovered from prolonged COVID-19 were nearly 14 times more likely to have lung damage, three times more likely to have brain damage, and twice as likely to have kidney damage than people in the control group. The severity of organ damage depended on the severity of the infection, the age of the patient, and the presence of other diseases.

Is it true that if you don't smoke a puff, you'll get lip cancer?

No, it's not. Red lip cancer is caused mainly by chronic trauma to the lip and exposure to sunlight. Although smoking is also a risk factor for lip cancer (and it doesn't matter if you smoke a puff or not). If you don't smoke a puff (as well as a drag), you can get cancer of the lungs, bronchi, trachea, stomach, esophagus, mouth and oropharynx. Don't smoke, or be prepared for the consequences.

The oldest tree.

It grows in California. The seed sprouted at the very end of the fourth millennium B.C., when hieroglyphics were invented in Egypt and the first cities appeared in Mesopotamia. This as yet unnamed tree is 5070 years old, belongs to the species "intermountain pine" and grows somewhere on the slopes of the Sierra Nevada in the Inyo National Forest Reserve. Its location is kept in the strictest secrecy to preserve the peace of the ancient tree from the ubiquitous tourists.

Just imagine, this pine tree is the oldest living organism on Earth! It is a contemporary of the beginning of our civilization, and the creation of the world according to the Mayan calendar. The pine was already about five centuries old when the pyramids began to be built in Egypt, and more than six when Stonehenge was decorated with stone rings.

The Chandrayaan-3 lunar rover did not wake up after a lunar night, the Indian space agency said.

The apparatus to explore the surface of the Moon was put into sleep mode with the onset of the lunar night. Specialists expected that with dawn its batteries will charge and start working, but it did not happen. Presumably, they could not withstand the space cold. The module stopped communicating.

And if it's the other way around, it means no one wants him.

The fugu fish is small, but very poisonous. Its poison is tetrodotoxin, which has a nerve-paralyzing effect - hundreds of times more dangerous than potassium cyanide. One milligram of poison is enough to kill a person. Fish has poisonous guts (especially the liver) and skin. This fish has no scales, because in the moment of danger it swells up and turns into a ball covered with spines. And woe to the shark that swallows such a ball...
