As more people across the United States and New Jersey roll up their sleeves to protect themselves against COVID-19, the risk of scammers selling fraudulent vaccination cards is now higher than ever.
Assemblyman Nicholas Chiaravalloti (D-Hudson), who represents the 31st Legislative District, including Bayonne, proposed legislation on May 5 that would criminalize the making, selling or displaying of fake COVID-19 vaccination cards. Those caught buying, selling, or possessing fake COVID-19 vaccination cards are subject to a fine.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images are usually meant to be static. But now, researchers from Mātai Medical Research Institute (Mātai), Stevens Institute of Technology, Stanford University, the University of Auckland and other institutions, report on an imaging technique that captures the brain in motion in real time, in 3D and in stunning detail, providing a potential diagnostic tool for detecting difficult-to-spot conditions such as obstructive brain disorders and aneurysms - before they become life threatening.
Chiaravalloti Introduces Legislation Establishing Criminal Penalties for Falsified COVID-19 Vaccine Cards By Insider NJ | May 6, 2021, 10:30 am | in Caucus Room
As more people across the United States and the state of New Jersey begin to roll up their sleeves to protect themselves against COVID-19, the risk of scammers selling fraudulent vaccination cards is now higher than ever.
To combat this issue, Assemblyman Nicholas A. Chiaravalloti (D-31) proposed legislation on Wednesday that would criminalize the act of making, selling or displaying fake COVID-19 vaccination cards. Those caught buying, selling or possessing fake COVID-19 vaccination cards are subject to a fine.
“As we begin the slow recovery back to normalcy, we must not allow people to cheat the system at the expense of others,” said Chiaravalloti. “Falsifying medical documents poses a serious risk to those around you, and it must be taken seriously.”
New Imaging Technique Captures How Brain Moves
Researchers from the Mātai Medical Research Institute, in New Zealand, and Stevens Institute of Technology and others report a new and enhanced method to visualize difficult-to-spot brain conditions
3D aMRI not only provides a stunning look inside the beating brain , but it can also measure this physiological motion in all directions. Here, the amplitude of brain motion is overlayed for each brain slice and orientation in 3D. Image credit: 3D aMRI method outlined in Abderezaei et al. Brain Multiphysics (2021); Terem et al.
