![]() What happened to the AstraZeneca vaccine? Now rare in rich countries, it’s still saving lives around the world While most people with myocarditis related to vaccine have mild symptoms and recover over days or weeks, a small number have more serious disease or prolonged symptoms. ![]() Myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) has been seen more frequently, particularly in teenage boys and young men after mRNA vaccines (around two to ten cases for every 100,000 second Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine doses). This was rapidly reported and its detection shaped the COVID-19 vaccine rollout. It occurs in around one in 50,000 doses of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine, with 173 cases reported in Australia. Thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome is a serious but rare clotting disorder. Some rare but serious events caused by COVID-19 vaccines were detected within months of the vaccine rollout. ![]() These studies look at whether the risk of a condition is increased in people shortly after vaccination, compared to other times or in unvaccinated people. Detailed epidemiological studies have also included many millions of people. Safety monitoring has occurred across the whole populations in more than 190 countries. As vaccines are given to the wider population, many countries (including Australia) monitor for rare and serious side effects. More than 13 billion COVID-19 vaccine doses have been given globally. Initial clinical trials can only detect relatively common side effects. These trials are large – around 20,000-30,000 people are closely monitored for many months – but can only detect relatively common side effects. Clinical trials, including for COVID-19 vaccines, compare a group who receive the vaccine with another receiving a placebo (or another vaccine). Safety assessments start early in product development then proceed to clinical trial assessments. Strong vaccine safety systems are designed to identify and investigate potential new health issues related to a vaccine. Just because someone had COVID before they had a heart attack doesn’t mean it was the cause The key question is whether a vaccine caused or worsened the risk of a condition. Heart attacks, strokes, new autoimmune diseases, and death can all occur shortly after a vaccine. It’s important to consider these other factors, because not everything that happens after a vaccine is due to the vaccine. ![]() But other factors are crucial when determining whether one thing caused another. The condition occurring in a window of time after vaccination is an obvious criterion. Good vaccine safety systems address these questions. People naturally want to know the cause of a problem. This is particularly the case when the problem has an uncertain cause, is not well understood or is only recently described. In any new large vaccine rollout, some people will experience a serious medical problem in the period after the new vaccine is given, and wonder “was it from the vaccine?”.

More humble flotsam is swept up into whorls of silver wire that rise like tornadoes, drift like clouds or roll like tumbleweed on the gallery floor. These hangings resemble aerial views, yet also journeys through a mystical landscape of bright rivers and secret paths, dense undergrowths, urban grids and shadowy flatlands. Adams weaves vast tapestries that miraculously incorporate beads, glitter, shells and even painted stones into their immaculate warp and weft. The accompanying Hayward show, by the South African artist Igshaan Adams (born 1982), is outstandingly original too. And in the final work, thickly encrusted, you even catch sight of yourself reflected in the shining surface, a miniature figure passing quickly through the Idaho landscape. Liquid crystals forming across the engraving plates metamorphose into cloud rack, snow light and Milky Way, the dark forests of the night.

Redoubt: Base Plate Conductor, 2018 by Matthew Barney. Man, machine and metal, and their coexistence with nature, have always been among Barney’s most devastating themes. Molten brass and copper, poured through the charred remains of Sawtooth trees, turn these great columns into gleaming reliquaries. Gigantic sculptures, alongside, tilt upwards like rocket launchers: tree trunks that resemble both telescopes and military equipment, torn roots flaring like jet flames. They freeze-frame the film’s forests, peaks and constellations in miniature, transforming them into something almost numinous with the use of chemicals and electroplating. These framed plates are a most original hybrid of image, engraving and sculpture, emitting a kind of moonlit glow and bodying forth in three dimensions. You can see this very object at the Hayward Gallery, red copper (with bullet hole) in an open golden box. See the renowned permanent collection and special exhibitions. The cars refer to Barney’s own biography: both the 1967 cars and the Imperial New Yorker holding the corpse were part of Chrysler’s Imperial line: 1938 is the year of Matthew Barney’s father’s birth and Barney was born in 1967. If you have that kind of time, try true snowbound masterpieces such as The Great Silence, The Shining, McCabe and Mrs Miller or even The Revenant instead.ĭiana, with the bathos that undermines this film, does not shoot the artist but one of his works.

The film is at least in part concerned with the politicisation of America’s great outdoors.īut it is essentially a form of landscape art, reverential in its observation of icicles, silver moons and solitary firs, like flagpoles on the Sawtooth summits, of wild creatures (both animal and human) slipping among the trees like figures in a winter Brueghel. The wolves are descendants of the original animals controversially reintroduced into Idaho a generation ago. (He was only 52, and still glamorously athletic, when the film was shot in 2019.) Diana is played by Anette Wachter, an NRA champion. Though there are sporadic jolts, including the revelation – when he removes his hat – that grizzled old Actaeon, with his white beard and grandpa specs, is in fact Barney himself. THE CREMASTER CYCLE (1994-2002) is a series of art films directed by and starring contemporary visual artist Matthew Barney. There is no dialogue, no characterisation or evolving drama. Matthew Barney: DRAWING RESTRAINT was organised by the Serpentine Gallery in cooperation with Kunsthalle Vienna and was presented in Vienna from 7th March–8th June 2008.Watch a trailer for Redoubt by Matthew Barney These works challenged conventional notions of sculptural media in their use of industrial materials, such as polycaprolactone thermoplastic, expanded polystyrene and petroleum jelly. A number of large-scale sculptures related to the film, including Ambergris (2005), Holographic Entry Point (2005) and Occidental Restraint (2005) were displayed at the gallery. The gallery also collaborated with The Gate Cinema in London on a programme of screenings focusing on Barney’s recent feature film, DRAWING RESTRAINT 9 (2005). This series of works investigates the relationship between resistance and creativity, the effects of physical limitation being explored in the parallel realms of artistic and athletic endeavour. The exhibition consisted of sculpture, installation, performance, drawing and film from throughout Barney’s Drawing Restraint series, numbers 1 to 16.

The company also highlights a lower environmental impact. Happy Returns has roughly 2,600 drop-off locations where shoppers can return products for an immediate refund or exchange. During first-quarter earnings last week, Schulman highlighted plans to roll out a "next-generation digital wallet" this year, which he described as "all-in-one, personalized app" that will "provide increasingly customized and unique shopping, financial services, and payments experiences." The pandemic-induced boom in online shopping helped drive record payment volume and revenue for PayPal in recent quarters. The deal also fits into CEO Dan Schulman's recent, public focus on PayPal's "commerce platform." Schulman underlined online shopping as a key leg of growth during an investor day earlier this year. The company, founded by Max Levchin and Peter Thiel, works with roughly 31 million businesses that will eventually have access to the in-person returns network. Eventually, he expects the product to incentivize more merchants to sign up for PayPal products. The acquisition will help solve sometimes messy logistics of returning and shipping items for merchants, and help drive foot traffic to those businesses as the economy reopens, Keller said. PayPal had been an early venture investor in Happy Returns. PayPal also announced a deal in March to buy cryptocurrency security company, Curv, for $200 million. Thursday's deal follows PayPal's $4 billion acquisition of Honey, a browser extension that lets consumers find and use coupons while shopping online, in late 2019. "For retailers, we're providing more comprehensive services beyond payments." "The post-purchase experience is something we've been looking into, since it's such a pain point - people want to shop online and return in store, and vice versa," Frank Keller, senior vice president of consumer in-store and digital commerce at PayPal, told CNBC in a phone interview.
