Porto, May 29 (EFE/EPA).- Kai Havertz's goal with three minutes left in the first half proved to be all Chelsea would need here Saturday to defeat Manchester City 1-0 and win the Champions League for the second time in their history.For Blues coach Thomas Tuchel, who was at the helm of Paris Saint-Germain when they lost the 2020 final to Bayern Munich by the identical score, the result represented vindication.Fired by PSG last year amid conflict with management, the German took charge in January of a Chelsea side that had dropped to the middle of the Premier League title and led them to two finals - they lost the FA Cup to Leicester City - and a fourth-place finish.

The U.S. federal government has released the newest edition of dietary guidelines. According to Gizmodo, there are some surprising omissions. The official guidelines continue to promote the value of a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables. They do not however recommend that American men substantially cut down on alcohol consumption. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans are updated every five years. Officials hoped to see a recommendation that men limit their drinks to one a day on days they drink. The current guidelines stress a cap of 2 drinks a day on days that include drinking.
Russia is in an uproar after a health official said people shouldn't drink alcohol two weeks before and six weeks after getting the COVID-19 vaccine. According to Business Insider, there's no evidence that alcohol consumption is linked to Sputnik V's vaccine efficacy--or any other vaccine's efficacy. However, booze has been found to weaken the immune system. There is a waiting period of 21 days between the first and second Sputnik V shots. Having a strong immune system is especially important during a pandemic, so it may be wise to cut back on alcohol for that reason. The Russians have yet to release their complete, peer-reviewed data from phase 1 and 2 trials of Sputnik V, creating an air of secrecy around the vaccine.
Lisbon, Oct 1 (EFE), (Camera: Cynthia de Benito).- The global health and economic crisis unleashed by Covid-19 should not affect anti-drug policies, which must be protected so that everything is not even worse, the head of the Lisbon-based European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) Alexis Goosdeel said during an interview with Efe.SOUNDBITES OF ALEXIS GOOSDEEL, EMCDDA DIRECTOR:"For example, we have seen an increase in cannabis and also drugs —mainly Benzodiazepines— consumption, but also in alcohol consumption, many times along with Benzodiazepines and cannabis. There is also another group of drugs which are normally associated with recreational use, such as ecstasy or cocaine. We see that during the first two months (of lockdown), when there were severe restrictions on mobility, there was a decrease in consumption that can also be explained by the fact that for people who are under lockdown in a small place, with other people or who are difficult circumstances, consuming stimulants is not precisely what helps the most." "The pandemic has had a very negative impact on the mental health of citizens, not only those who were already drug consumers. We have realised now that there is a problem as a consequence of anxiety in many groups and this is something which will not disappear."
