Prices for new and used

vehicles have been all over the place in recent months, leaving bulls and bears with plenty of data to fuel their neverending argument about the electric-vehicle maker.

The pricing debate goes something like this: Cutting prices is a sign of weakness, while not cutting prices is a sign of strength and dropping used-car prices are a sign of weakening demand. The counterargument is that it’s cheaper

Healthy Lifestyle Before Infection Linked to Lower Long COVID Risk

A healthy lifestyle before COVID-19 infection was associated with a substantially lower risk of a post-COVID condition (PCC), or long COVID, a prospective cohort study suggested.

Over 19 months of follow-up, women in the Nurses’ Health Study II cohort who self-reported five to six healthy lifestyle factors — healthy body mass index (BMI), never smoking, high-quality diet, moderate alcohol intake, regular exercise, and adequate sleep — had a 49% lower risk of PCC compared to women with no healthy lifestyle factors (relative risk [RR] 0.51, 95% CI 0.33-0.78), reported Siwen Wang, MD, of Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health

Car Insurers Lack Data About EV Batteries, Repair, And Replacement

According to a recent report by Reuters, insurance companies and other related experts in the automotive industry fear that insurance premiums will continue to rise for electric cars. This is due in part to the fact that there is still little data available from automakers about their EV battery packs and related repairs.

Insurance companies are contacting electric vehicle manufacturers for more data on batteries, which could make repairs safer and easier. Moreover, if an insurer is uncertain about a battery pack’s condition, or that of the battery cells inside, it may opt to have the entire pack replaced.

Is It Finally Time for Amazon to Sell Its Stake in Rivian Automotive?

when Rivian Automotive (RIVN -2.28%) went public in November 2021, it revealed that Amazons (AMZN -0.09%) was its largest stakeholder. That wasn’t too surprising, since Amazon had previously signed an exclusive deal with the electric vehicle startup in 2019 to provide its logistics network with a fleet of 100,000 electric delivery vans (EDVs).

At the end of 2022, Amazon still owns 17% of Rivian’s Class A shares. But the value of that stake shriveled as Rivian’s stock price plunged more than 80% below its IPO price of $78 a share. That decline caused Amazon to post an unrealized

Letter: Saskatchewan’s health-care staff shortage means people suffer

In November, provincial premiers joined together to demand the federal government to increase funding through the Canada health transfer. The response was not what provincial leaders had hoped for.

The Government of Canada’s Minister of Health Jean-Yves Duclos responded with the need to discuss benchmarks to account for improvements to the provincial health-care system.

The response from the provincial premiers was a complete dismissal of the need to show benchmarks to the public for improving health care.

One of the most obvious effects of chronic underfunding and mismanagement of health-care funding has been a staff shortage crisis across the country.

Interested in investing in Blendid’s campaign? Click here to get started!

Consumer demand for healthy food options has skyrocketed in recent years; COVID-19 put health on many people’s minds and changed consumers’ standards as well as their priorities.

A recent study showed that 54% of all consumers care more about the healthfulness of their food in 2020 than they did in 2010. Healthfulness is now the biggest determining factor in purchasing food, even more than taste and price.

However, healthy food is not always accessible, especially for frontline workers or individuals who work overnight shifts. While McDonald’s and other fast-food
