April 5 (UPI) -- The COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to sharply higher drug overdose deaths and the federal government will continue to take "urgent action" to combat addiction, President Joe Biden said Monday.

You have questions. I have some answers.
Q: Tom Hanks made a movie about being the captain of a destroyer escorting a convoy during World War II. I do not know the name of the movie, but I don't think it was ever released in theaters.

As you know, when the pandemic forced many movie theaters to shut down, studios began looking for other ways to get their productions in front of audiences, and streaming was one solution. So “Greyhound” ended up on the subscription service Apple TV+, where you can still find it (and where you can get a seven-day free trial).
