Nov 12 2020 Share

Pope Francis is providing free coronavirus testing in the Vatican to the poor and homeless of Rome, the Vatican said on Thursday. The declaration comes as part of the Day of the Poor of the Roman Catholic Church, which was diminished this year as a result of the pandemic. 

Swabs are being provided at a clinic off St. Peter’s Square, which the Pope set up a few years ago to provide basic medical services to homeless people, some of whom live on the streets of the Vatican neighborhood.

New device can stream music directly into your head, without headphones

The official demo includes a short video of the swans on the lake, the buzzing bees and the babbling water, where the listener feels absolutely transported into the scene. CEO Christophe Ramstein finds it difficult to translate the idea into words. “The brain can’t comprehend what it doesn’t know,” he said.
