Illinois Court Rules Age Harassment Is Illegal Discrimination
Dec. 18, 2017
When it comes to sex discrimination, it is well established law that harassment based on gender is illegal. But what about harassment based on a person’s age? While there is extensive law regarding sexual harassment, age harassment is a relatively new subject for the courts, as illustrated by a recent case from here in Illinois.
Cook County Sheriff’s Office v. Cook County Commission on Human Rights
This case involves a 54-year-old woman who worked in the information systems department of the Cook County Department of Corrections, which is part of the Cook County sheriff’s office. Over a period of several years, the woman claimed she was subject to sexual and age harassment by a coworker who later became her supervisor. With respect to the age harassment, she detailed a number of occasions where the supervisor made derogatory and vulgar jokes in front of coworkers based on her purportedly being “old.”
The woman eventually filed a complaint with the Cook County Human Rights Commission, which enforces the county’s Human Rights Ordinance. Similar to state and federal civil rights laws, the county ordinance bans all employees from engaging in sexual harassment or “unlawful discrimination” based on age. Following an investigation and formal hearing, the Commission ruled in favor of the woman and ordered the sheriff’s office to pay her $75,000 in damages related to emotional distress. The Commission further ordered the Department of Corrections to “adopt a policy making age harassment as defined under the Ordinance a violation of the DOC’s employment policies.”
The sheriff appealed the Commission’s order to an Illinois circuit court judge, who upheld the decision. The sheriff then appealed that decision to the Illinois First District Appellate Court. On May 20, a three-judge panel unanimously affirmed both the circuit court and Commission’s decision in favor of the employee. This decision applies to both the sexual harassment and age harassment suffered by the employee.
A key issue for the appellate court was determining whether the county ordinance’s blanket prohibition on “age discrimination” also covered age-based harassment. The sheriff argued the law should be read strictly to exclude harassment. The court disagreed with that interpretation. Noting there was no prior case law in Illinois addressing this subject, the appellate court here looked to a 1996 decision by the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati. In that case, the Sixth Circuit said that federal civil rights law-on which the Cook County ordinance here is modeled-clearly included “requiring people to work in a discriminatorily hostile or abusive environment” as a form of illegal employment discrimination. Applying that same principle here, the appellate court held, “Where an employee can prove that her age was used as a basis to create such a hostile work environment, she proves unlawful discrimination under the Ordinance.”
Get Help From an Illinois Employment Discrimination Lawyer
The First District’s decision is a landmark victory for workers who have been harassed or bullied by coworkers based on their age. If you have been a victim of age harassment, or any other type of hostile workplace conduct, you should speak with a qualified Roselle employment discrimination attorney who can help you fight for your rights.

In early December, the 617-foot yellow crane lifted its final load, a cooling tower, to the Northwestern Mutual Tower and Commons office building under construction in downtown Milwaukee.
The crane started at 150 feet two years ago, gradually growing along with the tower for two years to rise above much of the city’s skyline. Now that much of the work on what will become the city’s largest office building is complete, the crane has been dismantled.
Work these days is focused inside the building, with more than 500 workers installing the flooring, walls and drywall that will complete a $450 million, 32-story, 1.1 million-square-foot office tower for Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Co., which is scheduled to open in fall.
Meanwhile, Northwestern Mutual’s $100 million, 33-story parking and residential tower at 777 N. Van Buren St. is on schedule to be completed and occupied by spring 2018.
[caption id="attachment_156344" align="alignnone" width="770"] The long-awaited Couture projected is expected to break ground in the spring.[/caption]
Nearby, the Downtown Transit Center is being demolished, making way for an expected spring groundbreaking of The Couture, a $122 million, 44-story tower that will include 302 luxury apartments and about 50,000 square feet of retail space.
On the west side of downtown Milwaukee, another major project is progressing. The $524 million Milwaukee Bucks arena broke ground June 17, just north of the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
While the arena itself won’t be completed until August 2018, the first phase of the arena district development will wrap up this year. A 55,000-square-foot training center that will include two full-sized basketball courts, a weight room and a medical training area will be completed in July. Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin is building a three-story, 37,000-square-foot community health center connected to the Bucks training facility.
A six-story parking structure that will include 10,000 square feet of retail space along West Juneau Avenue and 11,000 square feet of office space along West McKinley Avenue will be completed in November.
“This (arena and surrounding) development will be transformational for the people of Wisconsin, creating thousands of family-supporting careers while driving additional economic development in the heart of the city,” said Bucks president Peter Feigin.
Construction will continue on the Milwaukee streetcar project through this year and 2018, although the first streetcar line will not be operational until fall 2018. The city will have its first look at what the Milwaukee streetcar will look like in December, when Pennsylvania-based Brookville Equipment Corp. is expected to deliver the first car.
Several large office building projects were announced in 2016. Whether they all will break ground this year will depend on if developers can secure tenants.
This summer, the first phase of the $137 million BMO Harris Financial Center project will begin when the bank demolishes its existing parking structure immediately north of its existing building at 770 N. Water St. to make room for a new 25-story office tower.
[caption id="attachment_160388" align="alignnone" width="770"] The Northwestern Mutual Tower and Commons office building in downtown Milwaukee is scheduled for completion in the fall.[/caption]
Milwaukee-based Irgens Partners LLC will be the developer for the new building and also will redevelop the existing BMO Harris Bank building, a 20-story structure built in 1967, into a mixed-use building. Milwaukee law firm Michael Best & Friedrich plans to move from the 100 East building into the new BMO Harris Financial Center when it is complete in late 2019.
The Marcus Corp. might also move out of 100 East. The company is planning to break ground this fall on Edison Place, a 20-story, $119 million mixed use development in the Park East Corridor that would include an eight-screen movie theater, 162,000 square feet of residential space and 113,800 square feet of office space. The company says it might move its headquarters to the building.
Milwaukee-based Mandel Group Inc. in late 2016 announced plans for a three-building, 275,000-square-foot office development along the Milwaukee River in the city’s Walker’s Point neighborhood.
[caption id="attachment_160385" align="alignleft" width="560"] The BMO Harris Financial Center project will begin this summer with the demolition of the bank’s existing parking structure.[/caption]
Office buildings planned by Irgens in the Third Ward and Hammes Co. in the Park East corridor downtown also are expected to break ground in 2017. The Irgens project still needs an anchor tenant. Hammes will be the anchor tenant in its office building, moving downtown from Brookfield.
Vacancy rates for the area’s office market continued to decline in the fourth quarter of 2016 and are expected to be even better in 2017, according to a report from Xceligent and the Commercial Assocation of Realtors Wisconsin. The fourth quarter net absorption was 52,817 square feet, bringing the year-to-date total to just over 638,000 square feet. The positive net gain is due to Irgens opening 833 East in downtown Milwaukee and the 150,000-square-foot Meadowland Research & Technology Center in the Milwaukee County Research Park. Irgens also has announced plans for two additional office buildings in the research park.
The Corners of Brookfield, a 750,000-square-foot mixed-use development with a heavy retail component, at I-94 and Barker Road in the Town of Brookfield, will open in April, bringing with it the state’s first 140,000-square-foot Von Maur department store, an L.L.Bean store, Arhaus Furniture and many other first-to-market retailers.
“This is the most important (metro Milwaukee) retail development in a generation,” said Bruce Westling, a principal of NAI MLG Commercial, who has worked closely on the project. “It will be catalytic to the entire region and expose the Milwaukee market to retailers who typically fly over from Chicago to Minneapolis.”
84South, a mixed-use development by Cobalt Partners at I-894 between Layton Avenue, South 84th and South 92nd streets in Greenfield is expected to open its first phase in summer. It also will have a heavy retail component and tenants will include Total Wine & More and Fresh Thyme Farmers Market.
The Brookfield Fashion Center on Bluemound Road is a property to watch in 2017. HSA Commercial Real Estate, the Chicago-based developer of Wauwatosa’s Mayfair Collection project, purchased the strip mall in late 2016 for $43 million with plans to revitalize the center with new tenants.
There is more than 3 million square feet of industrial space under construction in southeastern Wisconsin and the largest of those projects are in Kenosha County.
Uline is building a 880,000-square-foot distribution center in Kenosha. The next largest industrial project under construction in the region is First Park 94, building B, a 602,348-square-foot speculative industrial building in Somers, also in Kenosha County
The vacancy rate for the Milwaukee-area industrial market remains stable at 4.2 percent, which was the same figure as early 2016. The region’s industrial real estate market absorbed 127,040 square feet of space during the fourth quarter and about 4 million square feet of space for all of 2016.
“Given the perceived level of tenant activity in the market, the lack of change in the vacancy rate could signal a shortage of available space in the market,” said Tracy Johnson, president and chief executive officer of CARW.
The biggest hotel news in 2017 will be how the city decides to move forward on two proposals for the development of a 2-acre, city-owned vacant site at North Fourth Street and West Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Milwaukee.
Milwaukee-based hotel development firm Jackson Street Holdings LLC is proposing a $279.6 million plan, called Nexus, that would include three hotels totaling 506 rooms, 103,000 square feet of meeting space and 22,000 square feet of street-level restaurants, bars and cafés.
[caption id="attachment_160386" align="alignnone" width="770"] The Corners, a mixed-use development with 400,000 square feet of retail in the Town of Brookfield, will open in April.[/caption]
Marcus Hotels & Resorts also submitted a $125 million proposal for the site, called eMbarKE, which calls for a 276-room expansion of the existing Hilton Milwaukee City Center hotel and a tower with up to 200 apartments.
A decision by city officials is expected in the spring.
A 10-story, 220-room Westin being developed by Jackson Street Holdings on the east side of North Van Buren Street between East Michigan Street and East Clybourn Street will open this summer. It will feature an Italian steakhouse on the first floor and add a new luxury hotel brand to the downtown hotel market.

Hot Hot is the hot new modern Asian fusion eatery in town. Seems that everyone is talking about it and going there. So my Cheapeats colleague Kate, her partner and I ventured out one mid-week evening to check it out.
I arrived early at 5:30pm and snagged a table upstairs next to a window. Hot Hot is only open for dinner, and being a small venue, fills up very quickly. A friendly server followed me upstairs with a jug of water, glasses and the menu. We had heard that the service is prompt and that the staff are friendly, and this certainly proved to be the case during our visit.
The concise menu covers all the corners of Asia: Thailand, Viet Nam, India, China and Malaysia, rather like a “top hits” of Asian food. I ordered some nibbles to share once Kate and her partner arrived: fresh spring rolls (3/$12) and stuffed roti ($14), the latter recommended by the server. We were looking forward to trying out the eclectic tastes as promised on the menu.
Unfortunately, this is when our anticipation turned to disappointment.
I love the fresh herb zing of well-made fresh spring rolls, something that I enjoyed years ago in Viet Nam. I continue to search for the same standard here in Auckland, and unfortunately my search continues. The rolls were bulked out with noodles, there were few herbs and rather than the traditional inclusion of shrimp and pork, Hot Hot offers pork or tofu. We chose the pork and found it quite tough to chew.
On to the Stuffed Roti. This was described as being stuffed with organic chicken, curry powder, ginger, potatoes and onion. It was attractively presented and cut into four pieces. We dug in, but none of us could taste the spices or even the chicken described on the menu. It was very greasy.
Our main course choices favoured Viet Nam cuisine: Banh Mi Roll ($14.50); Cold Noodles with Lemongrass Chicken ($16.50) and Wok Fried Noodle with pork belly ($17.50).
The Banh Mi Roll had been conveniently cut into three pieces for us. The pork in this dish was meltingly tender, but the flavours of the pickle, chilli and coriander were very muted. The Hot Hot version of this roll is served with a bean pate rather than the traditional liver pate, and we felt that the bean pate flavour was essentially non-existent. We agreed that we all prefer Banh Mi made with a crunchy French baguette, rather than on soft bread as used at Hot Hot.
The Cold Noodles with Lemongrass Chicken featured several pieces of delicious chicken served on a bed of noodles. However the chicken had been marinated or basted with a soy or teriyaki type sauce, and there was no flavour of lemongrass.
The most successful dish for us was the Wok Fried Noodles, which tasted very much like the Malaysian smokey flavoured fried noodle dish Char Kway Teow. The noodle dough had been rolled up and then sliced into chunks. For some reason we again chose the pork version, but chicken and vegetarian versions are available.
We pushed on to dessert: I love black sticky rice, so despite what I felt was a rather high price, we ordered the Egg Coconut Custard with black sticky rice ($12.50). The Chocolate Brownie with salted caramel ice cream and peanuts ($12.50) spoke to Kate, so we ordered that, too.
The egg coconut custard on the black sticky rice mystified us. Rather than a silky baked custard or a smooth pouring custard, the custard was a firm, rather grainy textured topping. We pushed that dish to one side and dug into the brownie and ice cream. This was a real treat of a fudgey brownie with delicious caramel ice cream and we fought over sharing it. All it needed was a cup of tea to wash it down, but Hot Hot does not offer hot beverages (the irony is not lost on me).
Hot Hot has a lot to recommend it: funky, brightly coloured decor; friendly staff; prompt service; varied and delicious-sounding menu. However for us it is all about the food, and on the whole, we were disappointed with our experience. Sadly, a return visit is not something we will contemplate any time soon.

A Kingston University education student who helped save a Romanian hospital from closure says the experience has confirmed her ambition to work with children. Jennifer Edwards, who is in the final year of her primary teaching degree, volunteered to clean up a wing of a paediatric hospital in the town of Bolintin Vale during the summer. The 21-year-old spent nine days in the small town, 30 kilometres east of Bucharest, working for Metropolitan Police charity Convoy 2000, which sends medical aid to Romania.
Jennifer was part of a group of 20 volunteers who took supplies including bedding, clothing and equipment to the hospital ahead of a make-or-break inspection. â€œWhen we got there the building was very run down and the outlook was bleak,â€ she said. â€œWe sanded down the walls and decorated the rooms and managed to prevent the hospital from being shut down.â€
Days later, the medical supplies Jennifer brought with her helped save the life of a four-month-old baby. Named Nikolai by hospital staff, the infant required urgent medical attention after being found abandoned in the street.
â€œThe intravenous equipment and oxygen masks we brought with us helped keep him alive,â€ Jennifer said. â€œIt was an amazing feeling to know I was partly responsible for saving this tiny person.â€
Jennifer received a medal from the townâ€™s mayor for her role keeping the hospital open. â€œIt was a touching gesture and very humbling,â€ she said.
â€œThe people were so grateful, even for basic supplies such as blankets and sheets that we take for granted.â€
Jennifer intends to return to the hospital to work on another ward before she starts her career in the classroom. â€œAlthough I wonâ€™t be saving lives as a teacher, I will continue to get great satisfaction from helping children fulfil their potential,â€ she said.

In DNW Podcast episode #464, Polina Malaja of CENTR talked about the implications of NIS2 for the domain name industry. I asked Simone Catania of InterNetX if he would share some thoughts on NIS2.
In the constantly evolving world of digitization, staying updated on the latest legislation affecting the cyber landscape is of paramount importance. One such critical piece of legislation recently drawn attention is the Directive on Security of Network and Information Systems (NIS2 Directive). The NIS2 Directive represents an ambitious aspect of the European Union’s plans to ensure a high common level of cybersecurity across all member states.
A deep dive into the NIS2 Directive: its background, purpose and goals
The NIS2 Directive finds its roots in the first-ever EU-wide legislation on cybersecurity, the original NIS Directive adopted in 2016. As the digital landscape continued to grow, so did the realization that with expansion came newer and more complex threats.
Everything around us is bursting into the digital realm—from our personal lives to the industries we work in, making cybersecurity more critical than ever. The threats, including DNS abuse, are diverse and increasing in number. They hold the potential to cause severe disruption to essential services like healthcare, energy and transport systems. This necessitates collective vigilance and adaptation to these potential menaces.
This led the European Commission to propose a revision, aptly named the NIS2 Directive (EU) 2022/2555, in December 2020. The NIS2 Directive is, in essence, a significant upgrade to the original Directive. It establishes a comprehensive framework designed to address growing cyber threats while ensuring the resilience of critical infrastructure across all member states. It provides guidelines and requirements for increasing security measures and reporting incidents for various essential sectors and digital service providers.
The objectives of the NIS2 Directive can be broadly categorized into three primary goals:
- Developing a culture of shared responsibility in addressing cybersecurity risks.
- Ensuring that essential service providers and digital service providers adhere to strict security standards.
- Facilitating swift and efficient information sharing and collaboration for responding to cyber threats among member states.
In sum, the NIS2 Directive displays the European Union’s proactive approach to addressing the urgent issue of cybersecurity. By intent and design, it seeks to shore up the EU’s defenses and make its digital environment safer and more resilient.
NIS2 reshapes the roles of digital operators and domain experts
The NIS2 Directive will have significant implications, not just on a macro level but also on the operational aspects of digital operators and domain experts. Articles 27 and 28 mandate the establishment of registries and the upkeep of domain name registration data. To fulfill these objectives, domain companies must adapt to new standards, reinforce cybersecurity protocols, implement risk management strategies and develop systems for reporting incidents.
Under Article 27, the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) is tasked with assembling and maintaining a registry of multiple entities. These include DNS service providers, TLD name registries, domain name registration services, data center service providers, content delivery network providers and more. The registry consolidates information about such entities, ensuring close monitoring and cooperation between the competent authorities in EU member states. As per the Directive, entities specified in Article 27(1) must provide the necessary information to their competent authorities by 17 January 2025.
Article 28, on the other hand, bears significant implications for the domain industry. It emphasizes the necessity for TLD registries and domain name registration service providers to gather and maintain accurate, comprehensive data on domain name registrations. To ensure this, TLD registries and domain name registration service providers must craft policies and procedures to validate the accuracy of the information in their databases. Additionally, non-personal domain name registration data should be made publicly available promptly after domain name registration.
Domain industry faces new challenges with the NIS2 Directive
The NIS2 Directive presents several challenges for the industry, particularly regarding the verification process and the allocation of responsibilities between registries and registrars. As the Directive pushes for strengthened cybersecurity, it demands stringent verification processes for domain registrations. However, the lack of clear procedures and standards often leaves domain professionals in the dark.
Furthermore, the NIS2 Directive has potential implications outside of the EU as well. It may also apply to companies outside the EU if they offer services to customers within the European Union. One crucial concern is maintaining a balance between legitimate access and data privacy. Operators must provide access to information when they receive legitimate, lawful requests and are required to respond within 72 hours.
So, while the primary goal of the NIS2 Directive is to fortify cybersecurity and enhance infrastructure resilience across the EU, it brings considerable changes and challenges for digital operators and domain professionals. The industry remains highly attentive, closely monitoring the developments and working collaboratively to shape the debate. This will ensure the smooth implementation of the Directive and help companies to navigate the ever-evolving complexities of the cybersecurity landscape successfully.
How to be prepared for these legislative changes
Embracing the changes brought forth by the NIS2 Directive is essential not just for compliance but for the sustainability and resilience of organizations in the face of evolving cyber threats.
For digital operators, the first step towards aligning with the Directive should involve carrying out a thorough risk assessment to accurately understand their existing security postures and identify any gaps that need to be addressed. Subsequent actions should focus on strengthening their systems with advanced cybersecurity measures, frequent auditing and rigorous testing. A proactive approach to incident reporting by establishing clear communication channels can ensure transparency and the ability to implement timely remediation.
Non-compliance with NIS2 can result in reputational damage, loss of essential services, increased scrutiny from customers and investors, decreasing revenue and market share, not to mention substantial fines of up to €10 million or 2% of global annual revenue for essential companies and up to €7 million or 1.4% for important companies.
Compliance with the NIS2 Directive isn’t simply a regulatory necessity but can prove to be a testament to an organization’s commitment to protecting its services, clients and itself against cyber threats. When seen through this lens, the NIS2 Directive is less of a challenge and more of an opportunity for digital operators and domain experts to build trust and assure their customers of their unwavering commitment to security and resiliency.
The value in understanding the NIS2 Directive
The NIS2 Directive represents a significant step towards strengthening the cybersecurity of critical infrastructure within the European Union. This comprehensive framework has implications for both digital operators and domain experts, compelling them to adhere to stricter security standards and fulfill enhanced incident reporting obligations.
That said, decoding the NIS2 Directive in full, with all its complexities and subtleties, can be challenging. To learn more, read the whitepaper “NIS2: Unraveling the Directive“. Tailored for digital operators and domain experts, this resource provides a comprehensive understanding of the NIS2 Directive and helps navigate its implementation.

Tuberculosis is one of the most widespread communicable diseases in the world. World Health Organization (WHO) states that tuberculosis is the second leading infectious killer globally in 2022, just after COVID-19.
Despite our commitment to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically the target under SDG 3 (Good health and well-being) to end tuberculosis by 2030, our progress has stagnated. According to the report, Malaysia has recorded 26,781 cases of tuberculosis in 2023, which is a 5.47% increase compared to 2022.
Tuberculosis is hard to tackle. For one, there are two main types of tuberculosis conditions: active tuberculosis and latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI), which might develop into active tuberculosis over time. The emergence of drug-resistant strains further complicates treatment efforts.
However, difficult does not mean impossible. While the number of cases may have risen over the year, we have avoided a major outbreak of the disease. With enhanced prevention, improved diagnosis and incentivised treatment, the target of ending tuberculosis is achievable.
When we speak of contagious disease prevention, vaccines are the first thing that comes to mind. Currently, the only vaccine against tuberculosis is the BCG vaccine, which is required to be administered shortly after birth.
Unfortunately, the protection the BCG vaccine offers does not last long. According to Martinez et al. (2022), the vaccine only offers significant protection for people who are younger than 5 years old. While other vaccines currently undergoing clinical trials, do not expect them to be available anytime soon.
Hence, it is crucial to identify the susceptible groups and prevent tuberculosis from developing and spreading in these populations.
It is widely agreed that tuberculosis cases are more prevalent in low-income groups. Noykhovich and Mookherji (2019) found that individuals living in urban slums are three to five times more likely to develop tuberculosis. However, tuberculosis is not exclusive to low-income populations.
Mohidem et al. (2021) discovered a positive correlation between sociodemographic and environmental factors with tuberculosis in Gombak, where income status was strongly associated with tuberculosis, and the cases were higher in more developed and urban areas as well.
Mohidem et al. (2021) also found an association between smoke containing Nitrogen Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, Sulfur Dioxide, and PM10 particulate matter and tuberculosis. These pollutants are abundant in industrial areas.
To address this issue, we can increase tuberculosis awareness in areas where the susceptible groups reside via public awareness campaigns and have proactive health screening initiatives instead of reactive ones. Additionally, educating children about the dangers of tuberculosis will certainly help since there are still people who do not fully understand the disease.
A patient interviewed by Tok et al. (2023) in their qualitative study initially expressed disbelief upon receiving her diagnosis, as she was unaware that tuberculosis could manifest with extrapulmonary involvement.
Other than the low-income group and people living in urbanised industrial areas, smokers are also considered a susceptible group. Obore et al. (2020) have identified a two-fold increase in the risk of developing tuberculosis in both active and second-hand tobacco smokers alike. Altet et al. (2022) echo this study, further stating that tuberculosis patients who were exposed to tobacco had a higher instance of false-negative results in IGRA diagnosis, meaning they were misdiagnosed as healthy persons.
Multiple studies have suggested a possibility that nicotine might be disrupting the immune response to a host of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, thereby favouring disease progression (Davies et al., 2006; Kolappan & Gopi, 2002).
Our government has tried its best to follow the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), including banning tobacco product advertisements. However, there is more to be done, especially with the recent rise of e-cigarettes.
Although e-cigarettes are under similar regulation as traditional cigarettes, such as restrictions on selling to minors or promotional activities, the government have removed nicotine liquid from the Poison List. Additionally, a proposed law aimed at banning people born after January 1, 2007, from buying smoking products under the “Generation Endgame” was scrapped before the passage of Control of Smoking Products for Public Health Bill 2023.
It is advised to revisit “Generation Endgame” as soon as possible since this not only reduces the risk of developing tuberculosis or other tobacco-related illnesses among the younger population but also aligns with the SDG 3 target 3.A to strengthen the implementation of WHO FCTC. Increasing the number of smoke-free areas and better enforcement will also protect people from second-hand smoke exposure.
The Ministry of Health (MoH) has a comprehensive guideline on managing tuberculosis patients, the Management of Tuberculosis 4th Edition. This guideline highlights multiple diagnostic tools for active tuberculosis and LTBI.
However, the diagnosis of tuberculosis can be tricky, and the various conventional methods can be suboptimal. For example, a false-positive is commonly observed in the tuberculin skin test when the patient has the BCG vaccine (Acharya et al., 2020). Although the IGRA is more specific in diagnosing LTBI, MoH’s guideline mentioned that it is not widely available and requires a prior appointment because it is costly and needs to be tested in a reference lab.
Instead, Acharya et. al (2020) have proposed a potential diagnostic method named Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) test, which they claimed to be inexpensive and non-invasive.
Badola et al. (2023) hypothesised that tuberculosis may alter VOC in breath. After their experiment evaluating a breath analyser for detecting tuberculosis, they discovered a sensitivity of 95.7% and specificity of 91.3%, which is highly accurate.
Another group of researchers who tried to detect LTBI by using a mass spectrometer to analyse breath has reported a sensitivity of 80% and specificity of 80.8% (Fu et al., 2023).
Obviously, further studies are needed to verify the reliability of these methods. Badola et al. (2023) listed their study as being a quasi-experimental pilot study as a limitation, and Fu et al. (2023) mentioned that more extensive cohort studies are required before clinical application. However, it is undeniable that VOC tests have shown potential in tuberculosis diagnosis. We should seize this opportunity not only to advance our capabilities in medical research but also to improve our tuberculosis diagnostic methods.
The treatment of tuberculosis is just a combination of several antibiotic medications, and it is commendable that our government provides free diagnosis and treatment for eligible patients. However, there are still cases of loss to follow-up (LTFU) among patients, indicating that they stop treatment without permission from their doctor. This often occurs because while the treatment is not complicated, it typically lasts for six months and sometimes even longer.
Considering the low-income group is more susceptible to tuberculosis, the financial burden of tuberculosis treatment can be detrimental to them, as they may need to take frequent leave for their treatment or fork out extra for transportation, both of which can negatively impact their income.
Among the patients interviewed by Tok et al. (2023), financial issues were cited as a reason for discontinuing treatment, while other factors, such as work obligations or lack of transportation, also influenced their treatment adherence. One patient expressed a desire to seek treatment but simply couldn’t afford it.
At the end of the interview, some patients provided recommendations on how to improve the treatment programme. Suggestions included giving weekly doses of medication, establishing healthcare centres that operate outside working hours to accommodate patients who need to work, and providing transport allowances to help patients get their treatment.
Positively for the patients residing in Selangor, the state government does provide a
Expanding the programme nationwide or simplifying the application process by utilising MySejahtera (currently only accessible via e-mail) could greatly benefit patients with lower incomes and encourage more patients to keep up with their treatment.
Tackling tuberculosis is no small feat that requires considerable effort, but it is imperative that we prioritise the health of our communities. By enhancing our prevention scale, improving and investing in newer diagnostic methods, and providing incentives for treatment among low-income patients, we can make a dent in the rising cases of tuberculosis and hopefully work towards its eventual eradication.

Ted Turner: ‘I wouldn’t have moved the Braves to Cobb County’
By Maria Saporta
Ted Turner, the former owner of the Atlanta Braves, finally let the world know Wednesday that he would not have moved the baseball team to Cobb County.
Since the deal was announced last November, Turner has been uncharacteristically reserved when asked to comment about the Atlanta Braves plans to leave Turner Field in downtown Atlanta in favor of building a new $672 million stadium in Cobb County. The plan is for the Atlanta Braves to play in a new Cobb stadium in time for the 2017 baseball season.
But during a “fireside chat” at the Technology Association of Georgia’s 2014 Georgia Technology Summit (gathering coincidentally at the Cobb Galleria Centre), Turner let his feelings be known for the first time.
Tino Mantella, TAG’s president and CEO, was asking Turner about his thoughts of the current strained relationship between the United States and Russia.
That led Turner to remember a similar time when the United States withdrew from participating in the 1980 Summer Olympic Games in Moscow. That’s when Turner started his own peace-making sporting event — the Goodwill Games.
“We did a lot of work with Russia and the Goodwill Games,” Turner said. “We’ve got to be very careful and respectful of each other. We each have the ability to destroy the world, and I don’t want to see that happen. I like the earth. Time Warner canceled the Goodwill Games. I wouldn’t have canceled them. I wouldn’t have moved the Braves to Cobb County either.”
After the fireside chat, in a one-on-one brief interview, Turner elaborated on his thoughts about the Braves planned move to Cobb, which is made a point of saying was not in Atlanta.
Asked why he was against the move, Turner said: “It’s tradition. I never would have done it. They tried to get me to move the Hawks and I didn’t do it.”
Turner’s ownership and control of the Atlanta Braves was impacted when Turner Broadcasting System merged with New York-based Time Warner, which then merged with AOL. It was then when Turner said he got “canned” from his job at the company he had founded.
But many of his former colleagues and associates are still with the Atlanta Braves and its new owner, Liberty Media. Did Turner express his feelings to the current Braves executives?
“Nobody asked me,” Turner said.
Then as he was walking away from the Cobb Galleria ballroom, Turner observed: “It looks like getting into the Atlanta stadium is going to be a lot easier than getting to a stadium here.”
The Braves currently play in a facility that was originally built as the Olympic stadium when Atlanta hosted the Summer Games in 1996. The plan from the beginning had been to convert the Olympic stadium into a new stadium for the Atlanta Braves after the Games were over.
That stadium has since been called Turner Field — in recognition of either Ted Turner or Turner Broadcasting or both.
Knowing that his namesake stadium likely will be torn down when the new Cobb stadium is built, Turner was asked whether he felt sentimental about that landmark being lost from the city’s skyline.
“The one in Cobb is not going to be named after me,” Turner said. “That’s probably why they want to do this. They can make a lot of money selling the naming rights.”
Turner, who has become a philanthropist devoted to saving the earth, also commented that it doesn’t make much environmental sense to tear down a perfectly good stadium that is less than 20 years old to build a new stadium in an area that is not as well served by transit.
Turner’s final words as he parted ways was: “I like the old stadium.”
Yea well….Ted shouldn’t be talking. Braves probably wouldn’t move if not for the TV deal he signed….one of the worst if not worst in MLbReport
Guest808 I don’t think that Ted Turner was in control of the Braves anymore when the current TV deal was signed. In fact, I think that the current TV deal was signed years after he had lost control of the team and the organization.Report
The Braves would have moved anyway. Despite the many who wish to insist that the Braves’ move is unique and a clear indictment against the (insert your preferred code words here) leadership of Atlanta, the reality is that pro sports teams have been raiding the suburbs for tax dollars for decades. Liberty Media relocated because Cobb County was willing to hand them what is now known to be (but was largely shielded from the public when the county commission had to hold THEIR ONLY PUBLIC VOTE ON THE PROJECT) well over a half a billion dollars, a lot of which is going to be secretly funneled to well-connected cronies (thanks to a secrecy bill passed by Ron Erhart … had the same been passed by someone from the (again insert your preferred code words here) Atlanta leadership there would be tar, feathers and pitchfork brigades encircling the capital right now.
Sports teams move from the cities to the suburbs and back to the city again seeking tax revenue. Happens all the time, just as it will happen again with the Braves when their current lease in Cobb County expires. Except that 25 years from now, baseball – a sport with an aging demographic – will be a much more marginalized sport, more of a niche sport like NHL and NASCAR, so far fewer people will care.Report
atlman “had the same been passed by someone from the (again insert your preferred code words here) Atlanta leadership there would be tar, feathers and pitchfork brigades encircling the capital right now.”
The City of Atlanta was already tapped out to subsidize Arthur Blank to the tune of $500 million or so. They couldn’t afford to keep the Braves as well, just like they cannot afford to repair their $1.1 billion of decayed infrastructure..Report

It would be interesting to see a real army against Orks.
Some suggestions -
Engineers that can blow bridges (three of them can secure Acheron on their own)
Infantry 39 (rifle, grenade, knife)
Infantry 44 (MP44, grenade, knife)
Assault engineers a.k.a. Sturmpioniere (MG, flamethrower, flamethrower, knife)
Brandenburg 800 (light weapons, good vision and fast runners)
Recon cars (good vision)
Radar (cheat recon)
Support units - 88 Flak (antitank)
Nebelwerfer (2 rockets, 2 rockets, 2 rockets)
Longe range artillery for counterbattery fire
Bismarck battleship (heavy guns, more heavy guns, even more heavy guns)
V2 accurate enough to take out field targets
Air force is what this game misses; there are some planes but they are slow and not so useful. Some BF 109s to take out those Ork choppers would be needed as well as ground attack planes.

FIRST LOOK: Glee's Biggest, Craziest, Most Expensive Show Ever
The new Hollywood Reporter goes behind the scenes as the Fox hit relocates its already complicated production 3,000 miles away to NYC.
It's a two-unit day back in Los Angeles: while the girls shoot a hotel-room scene at Paramount, Morrison is the solo star of a reflective moment. His character Will, standing alone on a Broadway stage (re-created at downtown L.A.'s Million Dollar Theater), ponders the age-old question, "What if?" with a song -- his own. It's the first time Glee has incorporated original music by one of its stars, but "Still Got Tonight," off of Morrison's debut album (out May 10), presented the perfect sentiment. "It's about aspiration," Murphy says. "We've seen Will be this dreamer."
As for Morrison, spotlighting his single brings both extra pressure and satisfaction. "I want my songs to hold up as part of the great work we do on Glee," he says. "This song is very theatrical; you could see it being part of a big moment." Murphy, who directs the scene, upped its presence.
"It's that moment when he has to think, 'Which am I going to pick -- going out for my dream and possibly failing or being a teacher?' " Murphy explains. "It's sort of how I see the difficulty in being a teacher in the arts."
The scene oozes sentiment as light streams in from the top of the aisles and Morrison, ever so wistfully, looks back on how far he's come. It's an appropriate closer for Murphy, too, who cheerfully guides the crew of 60, most of whom have worked on Glee from the very start. "They love the message, they love to sing and dance, and more than any other crew out there, they talk to people about what the show means to them and their kids," he says between takes. "Nobody ever thought a television musical could work, let alone be sustained. They do the impossible every week."

A major plan to sweep away much of Wood End, Manor Farm and parts of Henley Green to make way for developers to build a new mix of homes was endorsed in principle by Coventry City Council last night.
The New Deal for Communities scheme will transform the north east of the city and is designed to tempt developers to invest £330 million in building homes for sale, rent and social housing.
The city council agreed to give away land - mostly public open space - for nothing provided Whitefriars Housing Group which owns most of the rented homes there agrees to do the same.
The New Deal Communities Board is meeting today to look at its latest masterplan for the area. The scheme is backed by £54 million of government grant and local residents have helped to draw up plans.
Labour Cllr Tom White, a former social services director at the council, said it was a "once in a lifetime opportunity" to change the estates which had "enormous social problems".
Socialists condemned it as a "massive social engineering scheme" to change the former council estates by bringing in more owner-occupiers at higher prices.
They claimed some people who had bought council houses now faced having them demolished and being unable to afford new ones at almost twice the price.
Socialist leader Dave Nellist said he was unable to quote exact figures, because they were in a private document deemed too commercially sensitive to make public.
But he said; "Some homes would be valued at half the price the new homes will be sold for. People in their 40s and 50s will have paid for their home and will not be able to find a new one."
The areas are so unpopular with tenants that 400 homes lie empty, 40 per cent of people want to move out and one-third of the tenants change each year.
The plan is to end up with more homes - 3,770 rather than 3,144 - but with a mix of 1,430 new homes for sale, new and refurbished homes for rent, some shared ownership and 60 homes for elderly people with special
needs to rent.Socialist Cllr Rob Windsor condemned it as a "massive social engineering scheme" and said the council should not give land to developers for nothing.
Cabinet member for regeneration Dave Batten said the council needed to give the land away for the project to be a success, adding: "At the moment it hasn't got significant value because of where it is."
Cllr White said he always regretted he had been unable as social services director to influence policies which saw social problems concentrated on the estates, which won awards at the time they were built. l COUNCILLORS backed a move for Coventry to become a "fair trade city" which supports giving producers in the third world a fair price for their goods.
They voted to look for ways of using fairly traded products in the council and to continue serving fair-trade tea and coffee for the Lord Mayor's hospitality.

Is there ever an "acceptable number" of civilian deaths in wartime? If there is, what is it? The ABC's Kerry O'Brien asked John Howard 11 questions on national television this week. The one about civilian deaths was the first. O'Brien asked it after Howard had said earlier that the civilian death toll in Iraq, so far, was "low". So what, asked O'Brien, was an "acceptable number" of such deaths?
To his shame and, you would hope, our mutual rage and disgust, Howard's answer was of the kind now everyday currency in the propaganda war that's become every bit as slimy and deceitful as the invasion of Iraq itself.
What our Prime Minister said was: "Kerry, I can't ever put a figure on that. Any death is tragic, and I also said that last week. I note, by way of an independent observation, that a spokesman for the International Red Cross said on the ABC AM program this morning that the hospital system in Baghdad appeared to be coping quite well with the level of civilian casualties. Now, I thought that was an interesting comment, because the International Red Cross is a respected, neutral organisation; it can't be accused of painting it one way or the other. I do know the efforts being taken by the coalition to avoid casualties is quite unprecedented. I believe those efforts should go on, and certainly, as far as Australia is concerned, the targeting policies that we have adopted in relation to the bombing we've participated in, those policies are going to be maintained; and I would expect the Americans and the British would stick to their approach, because there are ethics of war and they do need to be maintained."
Oh really, Prime Minister?
That Howard seeks to justify the level of Iraqi civilian casualties from US and British bombs and missiles on the grounds the Red Cross says Baghdad's hospitals "are coping" is the sort of appalling remark you'd expect from one of the more lunatic radio jocks, not the Prime Minister of this country. It suggests it matters less how many civilians are killed or maimed, just so long as the Iraqi medical system and its hospitals can "cope" with the casualty lists.
Similarly, to pretend there are "ethics of war" observed by the three invading nations is as glib as the assertion that US and British forces are making "unprecedented efforts" to "avoid [civilian] casualties". The trigger-happy atrocities by the American military against their British allies and the Iraqi population at large, as well as the stepped-up aerial and artillery assault on Iraq's cities, raises the question of just how great the civilian casualty lists would be if these "unprecedented efforts" were not being observed.
Unfortunately for Howard, a series of the war's most horrific incidents involving civilians occurred the same day as O'Brien's interview. The resultant front-page headlines on all major Australian newspapers, including the Herald, on Wednesday morning reflected the carnage by "jittery US marines" in the worst incident.
But these first reports included only brief details of the Iraqi deaths. That detail arrived at midday Wednesday in a story filed to all Australian news outlets on the AAP service. The author was an American, Meg Laughlin, of the Knight-Ridder (KRT) group of newspapers, the second-largest (31 dailies) in the US. Laughlin was sent to Iraq from KRT's Washington bureau. Her story appeared in Australia on AAP like this: "Wednesday, 2 Apr 2003 at 11:19am; category, overseas news; low priority; story no 6717. Mid: Iraqi family who lost 11 to US fire were fleeing to safety.
"By Meg Laughlin
"Near Najaf, Iraq, April 1, KRT - An Iraqi mother in a van fired on by US soldiers says she saw her two young daughters decapitated in the incident that also killed her son and eight other members of her family. The children's father, who was also in the van, said US soldiers fired on them as they fled towards a checkpoint because they thought a leaflet dropped by US helicopters told them to 'be safe', and they believed that meant getting out of their village. Bakhat Hassan - who lost his daughters, aged two and five, his three-year-old son, his parents, two older brothers, their wives and two nieces, aged 12 and 15, in the incident - said US soldiers at an earlier checkpoint had waved them through.
"As they approached another checkpoint, they waved again at the American soldiers. 'We were thinking these Americans want us safe,' Hassan said through a army translator at a mobile army surgical hospital set up at a vast army support camp near Najaf. The soldiers didn't wave back. They fired. 'I saw the heads of my two little girls come off,' Hassan's heavily pregnant wife, Lamea, 36, said numbly. US officials originally gave the death toll as seven, but reporters at the scene placed it at 10. Hassan's father died at the army hospital later.
"US officials said the soldiers at an army checkpoint who opened fire were following orders not to let vehicles approach. On Saturday a suicide bomber had killed four US soldiers outside Najaf. Details emerging from interviews with survivors of yesterday's incident tell a distressing tale of a family fleeing towards what they thought would be safety, tragically misunderstanding instructions. An army report written last night cited 'a miscommunication with civilians' as the cause ..."
There was more, 800 words in all. Much of the detail described the dreadful wounds. Three of the uninjured extended family - 17 people had packed into the old LandRover - were "released" to bury the dead to stop dogs mauling the bodies.
And what was the the family fleeing to "safety" from in the first place?
"Their farm town where US attack helicopters had fired missiles and rockets the day before," Laughlin wrote. Tragedy upon tragedy. Judge for yourself "the ethics of war" and what your Prime Minister calls the "unprecedented efforts" of US and British forces to avoid civilian casualties.
So what did our papers do with Laughlin's story?
It never saw a front page anywhere. The Herald and The Canberra Times ignored it. Murdoch's Daily Telegraph rewrote it to a third its length on the bottom of page five under the byline of one of its own reporters. The Age in Melbourne ran it on page four under Laughlin's name but deleted all reference to the two little girls being "decapitated" and the mother seeing their "heads come off". To Age readers over breakfast the little girls simply "died". Brisbane's Courier-Mail buried eight paragraphs, unattributed, on page eight, in a story that included a second "incident" in which an Iraqi claimed 15 of his family died after his truck was hit by a rocket from a US helicopter near Nasiriyah ("Coalition forces target only legitimate military targets and go to great lengths to minimise civilian casualties," US central command said in a statement).
Only two city dailies published Laughlin's story in full. The Herald Sun in Melbourne (page 11) and The Advertiser in Adelaide (page eight), two Murdoch tabloids, gave Laughlin full attribution. But The Advertiser rewrote the lead, heroically: "Bakhat Hassan thought he was driving his family to safety - away from the bombs, away from the bloodshed. Instead, on the road to freedom, American soldiers who were supposed to be saving his country blew away all that Mr Hassan held precious to him. In a continuous burst of M16 gunfire ..." Meg Laughlin wouldn't have recognised it.
So what was the big story that day (Thursday)?
Of course - "the daring rescue of Private First Class Jessica Lynch", the blonde, 19-year-old American military supply clerk captured and listed as missing for more than a week, "spirited to safety by US special forces who swooped on Saddam hospital in Nasiriyah at midday on Tuesday", the day after most of Bakhat Hassan's family died at the US army checkpoint a bit further to the north.
Australia's media couldn't get enough of the story. It blitzed television bulletins and all newspaper front pages on Thursday. One pretty, live, teenage US soldier is worth more than a family of 11 dead Iraqi civilians any day, thank you, even when they include decapitated children as young as two and five.
Specially in the propaganda war.
I wish we'd known about the Iraqi family and Laughlin's story on Monday night when O'Brien denuded our Prime Minister on national television. How Howard would have rationalised the deaths we can only guess. But it would not have been the fault of the young, trigger-happy US marines. Good heavens, no. As General Peter Cosgrove, our most senior soldier and the military's best PR salesman, put it later, we "deplore and regret" all civilian deaths, and "do our best to minimise them", but "when you have people who deliberately use the population as part of the shield and protection of their violent acts, then there will be mistakes".
Always, and for everything, it is Saddam Hussein's fault.
O'Brien asked Howard on Monday night: "The bottom line, when we're talking about ethics, is still, I guess, the ethics of invading a sovereign nation that poses no direct threat to you or to America or to Britain, knowing that an incalculable number of innocent civilians will be killed or maimed." Howard was unfazed.
He trotted out the same old wool about "weapons of mass destruction", even though after more than two weeks of war, British and US forces have found absolutely nothing, as yet, of Iraqi biological and chemical weapons.
But while PFC Jessica Lynch, in the best Wag the Dog tradition, brightens a military tragedy already boring the television masses, who cares?

Jun 8 – Jul 8
Christine Chan Chiu
Touch Ceramics, in Hong Kong’s newest centre for heritage and arts, Tai Kwun, kicked off with an inaugural show of Sara Tse’s newest works. An artist long fascinated by the transience of time and the impermanence of life, Tse is known as much for her tactile abilities in modelling and manipulating clay as for the sentimental content of her pieces. The exhibition was not only a tribute to technique and craftsmanship but also a timely throwback to things past.
Tse discovered her signature method by chance, when the cloth used to clean her ceramic work table had hardened along with the clay. Experimenting by heating up the cloth, she discovered that while the cloth itself had been incinerated, what remained after the process was the exact replica of the cloth, but in porcelain, creating something that will last forever.
Tse applies this method faithfully to her latest works, where she has turned her attention to cartography to highlight how Hong Kong has evolved. The exhibition is well timed for its revitalised venue, formerly the Central Police Station compound, which has been granted a new lease of life. Indeed, Re Visit was conceptualised to pay homage to the historical buildings and their surroundings. Tse’s creative process involved referencing old hand-painted maps, using Chinese calligraphy brushes to meticulously trace along the lines of these maps onto expendable rice paper, then subjecting the latter to her signature transformative treatment, leaving only porcelain replicas remarkably similar to the real maps. Some of these were then cut and displayed in the form of slides through a projector, their enlarged images intentionally revealing the nuanced imperfections of the firing process.
On view are also items for which Tse is better known: a pair of socks, a young girl’s qipao, a toddler’s crocheted cardigan, even a plush teddy bear – all reconstructions of actual items but in porcelain, and amazingly real in their uncanny, detailed reproduction. Having been lovingly reincarnated into their new bodies, they are as durable as they are delicate.
The theme of nostagia has always been central to Tse’s works. Her art-making process is a cathartic one: in recreating the past, she succeeds not only in reliving it, but ultimately also in preserving it. While her maps provide an unbiased look into Hong Kong’s changing geographical landscape, the other more intimate pieces offer a glimpse into past experiences and relationships – metaphors for long-buried memories.
Re Visit was as much the artist’s personal story as it was Tai Kwun’s, with her intricate, unique approach to porcelain-making taking centre stage. The exhibition prompted the viewer to question the role and form of traditional porcelain, and to re-examine the significance that such everyday items hold in our lives, be they perishable or durable. It also shone a much-deserved spotlight on porcelain as an art form, reminding us that this traditional craft is very much alive.

About ICOR 2022
LUMIMINDS CONVENTIONS is glad to announce our upcoming International Conference on Oncology and Radiology – ICOR 2022 will be held Online during December 07-08, 2022. The theme of the conference is “Upcoming technologies that revolutionize the future of cancer treatment”
We take great pleasure in inviting all the Academicians, Scientists, Young Researchers and Students, Oncologists, Radiologists, Cancer therapists, Radiation Oncologists, Clinical Professionals, and Business professionals pertaining to across the world for our upcoming ICOR 2022 to witness and participate in highly professional scientific discussions and sessions.
Oncology is the branch of medicine concerned with the study, treatment, diagnosis, and prevention of cancer. An oncologist specializes in oncology. When the cancer is detected, follow-up and palliative care are administered at that time. Some disorders require immediate admission and chemotherapy, while others are followed up with a simple physical exam and blood tests. Radiology is a branch of medicine that uses medical imaging to diagnose diseases in the body of humans and other animals and to guide their treatment. Many alternative health care professions work as a team in the advanced practice of radiology. A radiologist may also be a physician who completes acceptable post-graduate training and interprets medical images, reports or verbally communicates these findings to other physicians and uses imaging to perform minimally invasive medical procedures.
ICOR 2022 will have Invited Talks/Keynote Talks, Scientific Sessions, Workshops, Poster Presentations, Networking Sessions, etc. As part of encouraging young researchers, we have a special session, the Young Scientist Session. Hope you all join and make the most exciting event of the year successful. You are assured of discovering the latest developments and breakthroughs that are exclusive to your field of work with its scientific sessions.
We accept abstracts for oral presentations, therefore request you all to submit the abstracts at the earliest before the early bird dates. Abstracts are published in the journals of the related proceedings providing DOI issued by Cross Ref.
We accept full-length articles that will be published in the Special issue of the conference proceeding journal.

The Cryoskin is the latest in advanced technology from Paris, the beauty capital of the world. Radiance Float + Wellness is proud to be the first center in St. Louis offering this unique treatment. The Cryoskin utilizes the science behind cryolipolysis to provide non-invasive treatments for fat loss, cellulite reduction and toning facial treatments.
Cryolipolysis is the medical treatment that uses sub-zero temperatures to destroy fat cells in the body by freezing them away. Cryolipolysis treatments work by triggering apoptosis (cell death) of the fat cells. This is achieved without risk to the other tissues (in particular muscular tissue) by the fact that the intracellular water and electrolytes of the fat cells are the first to crystallize in the cold before all the others. The treatment increases oxygen supply to the cells which aids in collagen production, resulting in slimmer, toned bodies, and the elimination of fine lines and wrinkles.
Treatments are quick and convenient lasting between 20-30 minutes, with no downtime or lasting side effects or discomfort. 88% of people surveyed found the treatments to be comfortable and relaxing.
