(The Center Square) – Louisiana parishes would have a say in how carbon capture and sequestration projects are approved and developed in their jurisdictions under legislation filed by state Rep. Mike Johnson, a Republican who represents Pineville and serves as acting House Speaker.“These bills are about fairness, property rights, and respect for local voices,” Johnson said in a statement. “No private company should have the power to force a family off their land, and no community should be sidelined when decisions directly affect their parish.”The regulation of carbon capture and sequestration, a combination of technologies designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by capturing carbon dioxide emitted at large industrial plants and storing it permanently deep underground, has been a contentious political issue in recent months.In October, Gov. Jeff Landry issued an executive order directing state regulators to suspend consideration of permits on new projects. No end date has been set for the moratorium.One of Johnson’s bills would prohibit the use of eminent domain, the legal power that allows the government to take private land for public or commercial use, even against the owner's will, for use in carbon capture and sequestration.Another bill creates a statewide local option that allows parish authorities or voters to decide if carbon capture and storage projects are allowed in their communities.The bills’ co-sponsors include Reps. Gabe Firment, Jason DeWitt, Rhonda Butler, Rodney Shamerhorn and Chuck Owen, all Republicans. In November, the nonprofit group Save My Louisiana filed a lawsuit in the 19th Judicial District Court in East Baton Rouge Parish challenging the constitutionality of state laws granting eminent domain for private carbon capture and sequestration projects.The lawsuit alleges current laws violate the Louisiana and U.S. constitutions by allowing unlawful takings, improper delegation of authority and violations of due process.

A Secretaria de Estado da Saúde de São Paulo confirmou o segundo caso de mpox (chamada antigamente de varíola dos macacos) do grupo lp no estado. Trata-se de um homem, de 39 anos, morador de Portugal, que apresentou os primeiros sintomas no final de dezembro no Brasil, procurou atendimento no Instituto de Infectologia Emílio Ribas, em São Paulo, e permaneceu internado por um dia no local. Ele já retornou ao país de origem. “Até o momento, não há registro de pessoas com sintomas entre os contatos identificados no local de hospedagem do paciente”, disse a secretaria, em nota. Em 2025, foi registrado o primeiro caso em SP da mpox do grupo lp, em uma mulher de 29 anos, que evoluiu para a cura. A mpox do grupo lp é mais agressiva e pode ser letal.  A mpox é uma doença do mesmo gênero da varíola humana, mas geralmente causa menos letalidade. Trata-se de uma doença zoonótica viral, em que sua transmissão para humanos pode ocorrer por meio do contato com pessoa infectada pelo mpox vírus, materiais contaminados com o vírus, ou animais silvestres infectados. Os sinais e sintomas, em geral, incluem erupção cutânea ou lesões de pele, linfonodos inchados (ínguas), febre, dor de cabeça, dores no corpo, calafrio, e fraqueza. Pessoas com sintomas compatíveis devem procurar uma unidade de saúde para avaliação. Recomenda-se evitar o contato próximo com outras pessoas.

O Ministério da Saúde decidiu não incorporar a vacina para a prevenção de herpes-zóster ao Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). A decisão está em portaria publicada no Diário Oficial da União (DOU). De acordo com relatório divulgado pela Comissão Nacional de Incorporação de Tecnologias no Sistema Único de Saúde (Conitec), disponível online, a vacina foi considerada cara diante do impacto que poderia ter em relação ao combate a doença. Notícias relacionadas: Anvisa aprova novo fármaco com injeção semestral para prevenção do HIV. Butantan recruta idosos para ensaio clínico da vacina da dengue. Vacinação contra sarampo e febre amarela será intensificada em SP. A vacina recombinante adjuvada para prevenção do herpes-zóster é voltada para idosos com idade maior ou igual a 80 anos e indivíduos imunocomprometidos com idade maior ou igual a 18 anos. “O Comitê de Medicamentos reconheceu a importância da vacina para a prevenção do herpes-zóster, mas destacou que considerações adicionais sobre a oferta de preço precisam ser negociadas, de modo a alcançar um valor com impacto orçamentário sustentável para o SUS”, afirma o relatório. O relatório apresenta também um cálculo dos custos em relação a população que seria beneficiada pelo imunizante. “Ao vacinar 1,5 milhão de pacientes por ano, o custo seria de R$ 1,2 bilhão por ano e, no quinto ano, a vacinação dos 471 mil pacientes restantes com um custo de R$ 380 milhões. Ao final de cinco anos, o investimento total seria de R$ 5,2 bilhões. Dessa forma, a vacina foi considerada não custoefetiva”, diz o texto publicado. Segundo a portaria publicada nesta semana, a matéria poderá ser submetida a novo processo de avaliação pela Conitec, caso sejam apresentados fatos novos que possam alterar o resultado da análise efetuada. Herpes-zóster O herpes-zóster é uma condição de saúde causada pelo vírus varicela-zóster, o mesmo que causa a catapora. Quando a pessoa tem catapora, o vírus permanece no organismo e pode ser reativado ao longo da vida, ocasionando o herpes-zóster. Essa reativação é mais comum em pessoas idosas ou com a imunidade baixa. Os primeiros sintomas são queimação, coceira, sensibilidade na pele, febre baixa e cansaço. Depois de um ou dois dias, surgem manchas vermelhas que evoluem para pequenas bolhas cheias de líquido. Essas bolhas podem secar e formar crostas. As lesões aparecem em apenas um lado do corpo e seguem o caminho de um nervo, o que dá ao herpes-zóster seu aspecto característico. As áreas mais afetadas costumam ser o tronco, a face, a lombar e o pescoço. Esse processo dura cerca de duas a três semanas. Segundo informações do relatório divulgado pela Conitec, o herpes-zóster geralmente melhora sozinho, mas em alguns casos pode causar complicações graves, como alterações na pele, no sistema nervoso, nos olhos e nos ouvidos. Tratamento no SUS Nos casos leves e sem risco de agravamento, o SUS oferece tratamento sintomático com remédios para aliviar a dor, febre e coceira, além de orientações de higiene e cuidados com a pele. Quando o risco é maior, como em pessoas idosas, imunocomprometidas ou com doença grave, recomenda-se o uso do antiviral aciclovir. De acordo com dados dos Sistemas de Informações Ambulatoriais do SUS (SIA/SUS) e hospitalares (SIH/SUS), entre 2008 a 2024, foram registrados 85.888 atendimentos ambulatoriais e 30.801 internações de pacientes com herpes-zóster no Brasil. Segundo dados do Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade do SUS, entre os anos de 2007 e 2023, 1.567 pessoas morreram por herpes-zóster no país, o que representou uma taxa de mortalidade pela doença de 0,05 óbitos por 100 mil habitantes no período. Do total de óbitos registrados, 90% foram de pessoas com idade maior ou igual a 50 anos, sendo 53,4% em idosos mais de 80 anos de idade.

Denver Public Schools announced that starting this week, it is blocking students’ access to ChatGPT on school-issued devices and the district’s Wi-Fi network because of concerns about the artificial intelligence chatbot’s new features. Those features include the ability for users to start a 20-person group chat and the planned addition of adult content to ChatGPT. In an email to families Friday, a top district official said DPS worries the new content could “potentially facilitate harmful interactions and/or the creation of content related to self-harm, violence and bullying.” The 20-person chat feature could lead to cyberbullying and academic misconduct, among other concerns, the email said. Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, the organization that created ChatGPT, said on X this past fall that the new version would allow “erotica for verified adults.” DPS Chief Information Officer Richard Charles wrote in the email to families that it’s the district’s “responsibility to ensure students are only engaging with age-appropriate information and systems.” Schools across the country have been grappling for years with how and when to use AI in the classroom. Some districts, including New York City Public Schools, initially blocked ChatGPT over concerns about student safety and learning before reversing course. Denver Deputy Superintendent Tony Smith said DPS never explicitly approved the use of ChatGPT by its 89,000 students, and this latest announcement solidifies that position. Instead, the district uses Google Gemini, which Smith said is more compatible with DPS’ monitoring system and data privacy rules. The district also uses MagicSchool, an education-specific AI tool created by a former Denver charter school principal that can help teachers create lessons or give students feedback on their writing. “It’s not that we are scared of this technology or we’re trying to be behind the curve,” Smith said. “We’re trying to be strategic and thoughtful about the implementation of this technology.” A district AI committee will meet later this month to discuss blocking ChatGPT for DPS staff as well, the email to families said. One of the biggest pitfalls of AI, Smith said, is the potential for it to undermine students’ ability to think critically and express themselves in their own voice. “We’re trying to make sure kids think and can access their skill sets and not ChatGPT,” he said. Safety is another top concern. Smith said district officials have read about the ways in which AI can affect children’s mental health. Families in Colorado and other states have sued AI companies, alleging that their children committed suicide after developing relationships with chatbots. DPS uses a digital tool called Lightspeed to monitor how students are using the internet, Smith said. But “we just can’t monitor everything,” he said. Given that, he said, district officials felt it was best to err on the side of safety. Melanie Asmar is the bureau chief for Chalkbeat Colorado. Contact Melanie at masmar@chalkbeat.org.
