Hong Kong, May 6 (EFE/EPA).- Over 1,000 residents in 400 units of the 52-storey residential block in Hong Kong have been ordered into government quarantine centers for 21 days, including fully vaccinated residents, after a domestic helper and her employer’s 10-month-old daughter tested positive for a mutated strain of Covid-19 coronavirus on Apr. 29.

A man’s experiment with DIY prescription drug withdrawal and psychedelic mushrooms went disastrously wrong and nearly killed him. Gizmodo reports the man had wanted to wean himself off prescribed medications for his bipolar disorder. He also had a history of opioid dependence. After boiling the 'magic' mushrooms, the man injected a 'tea' made from the mushrooms into his veins. Soon after, he developed symptoms including lethargy, jaundice, diarrhea, and nausea, along with vomiting up blood. When he was admitted to a hospital ICU, multiple organs had started to fail, including his lungs and kidney. Tests revealed that he had both bacterial and fungal infections. The mushrooms he injected were now literally feeding off him and growing. Among other treatments, he was given an intense course of antibiotics and antifungal drugs. It took 22 days in the hospital to recover.
