With the odds changing everyday, the current standing does not determine the fate of the Eurovision Song Contest and after Destiny’s jaw-dropping rehearsal on Thursday, the country remains supportive of our Eurovision star.

Destiny is set to perform Je Me Casse on Monday for another dress rehearsal and jury show, with the semi-final to be held on Tuesday.

Village feasts off the table for summer 2021, authorities confirm

May 14 2021 Share

The Health Authorities have confirmed that for another year, the traditional village feasts we know and love will not be taking place due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This unfortunate news had already been hinted at during a recent health conference addressed by Deputy Prime Minister Chris Fearne, where Malta’s Authorities were to meet with the Church to discuss the matter.

That said, reports from multiple news outlets highlighted that local health authorities will be insisting that during summer 2021, no feasts or mass activities take place as they would put Malta & Gozo’s vaccination programme in jeopardy.

New study reveals COVID-19 can lead to erectile dysfunction

New study reveals COVID-19 can lead to erectile dysfunction
May 13 2021 Share

A new study has revealed that COVID-19 can potentially infect penis tissue and contribute to erectile dysfunction. A published journal in the World Journal of Men’s Health analysed the tissue of men who contracted the disease and those who did not. Due to COVID-19’s potentially blood vessel damaging property, the sponge-like tissue in the penis can be affected by the pandemic.

Ranjith Ramasamy, who is an associate professor in the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine’s reproductive urology, stated that erectile dysfunction could be an ‘adverse effect of the virus.’ With a study which concerned four males, two with COVID-19 and two without, those who had contracted the virus were revealed to have had remnants of the virus in the penis tissue.
