Screen Time and Health
Screen Time and Health Is screen time really bad for us? According to Dr. Jean Twenge (2017) from San Diego State University in the US, teens from 13 to 18 years old who spend more time on screens were more likely to report depression and lower self-esteem. Moreover, young people who spent more than five hours on a device may have a higher suicide risk and mental health issues in future life, according to Twenge. Another research from the University of Otago by Dr. Louise Foley in 2021 found that her team monitored 250 children aged 6 to 12 years old over four weeks by using wearable devices to track their sleep. Dr. Foley concluded that children sleep better if they stop using screens one hour before bedtime. However, not all researchers explain that using screens significantly harms children’s mental health, as other factors like family life, sleep, and activity also play a role (Przybylski, 2019).

Over the Counter Nasal Spray Shows Promising Results Against COVID-19 and Cold Infections
A new phase 2 clinical trial suggests that a widely available over-the-counter nasal spray typically used for allergies could offer a meaningful reduction in infection risk for both COVID-19 and other respiratory viruses. The antihistamine nasal spray azelastine demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infections (the virus responsible for COVID-19), as well as fewer cases of common-cold-causing rhinovirus, compared with placebo.
