真的假的

農曆新年定為假日 加州眾議會通過 加州眾議會日前以65票全票無異議，通過代表矽谷選區州眾議員羅達倫所提AB 2596法案，希望將農曆新年定為加州假日。 羅達倫表示，美國各州亞裔人口在加州最多，亞裔也是美國成長最快的族裔，農曆新年為亞裔傳統節慶；他表示：「對推出AB 2596法案引以為榮，對數百萬加州人而言，農曆新年能定為法定假日，意義深遠。」 國會亞太裔小組副主席、代表紐約州民主黨聯邦眾議員孟昭文 (Grace Meng) 元月宣布推出法案，提案將農曆新年設定為聯邦假日。美國目前有11個聯邦假日，包括感恩節與聖誕節在內。 羅達倫辦公室表示，農曆新年具有循環更新與社區結合的普世意義，也是亞洲與亞裔文化的重要特徵，三分之二以上美國亞裔人口慶祝農曆新年，包括華裔、越南裔、韓裔、馬來西亞裔在內。親友家人於此傳統節日中團圓慶祝，相互祝福，許多非亞裔民眾也參與農曆新年節慶，顯現全體社區團結精神。 羅達倫認為，在仇亞暴力與日增長的背景之下，設農曆新年為州定假日不僅鼓舞亞裔士氣，也同時彰顯出加州領導包容性社會的魄力。

‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ Looks like the Indian COVID variant is here in Folsom and Bayarea and probably all California. One person, who is under 30, came back from India in mid-April, and got the Indian variant of the COVID. He is now in ICU. And few others are infected. It is impacting kids, and most people in 30s/40s. Even those who have taken both vaccine shots. So, there is a potential for spike in corona cases... especially in Indian community. Please continue to wear masks and practice social distancing and avoid large indoor gatherings. A San Ramon resident passed away on Apr 25 due to COVID-19 complications in India. He went to India to see his father. He got vaccinated before leaving (both shots). He got infected in India but tests were negative (apparently the latest strain only shows up on the CT scan) so he was caught unaware. Suddenly his oxygen level dropped to 70 and he had to be taken to the hospital. He was in a critical condition and then he passed away due to liver failure. He was a very healthy person. So looks like the vaccination might not be that effective for this new variant. ??? Please be careful visiting India even after getting vaccinated. Take care and stay safe
