How should I clean and store my face mask? Cloth face masks worn during the coronavirus pandemic should be washed regularly, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The coronavirus pandemic has reawakened debate about the continued viability of what has been the physical lifeblood of global economies: paper money and coins.

Hungary bans legal recognition of its transgender citizens

BUDAPEST Hungarian lawmakers on Tuesday approved legislation banning the legal recognition of transgender citizens. The bill changes the sex category in official documents like birth certificates to sex at birth, defined as the biological sex determined by primary sex characteristics and chromosomes. Once determined, the birth sex category can't be changed. The amendments were part of a large legislative package submitted by Deputy Prime Minister Zsolt Semjen, head of the Christian Democratic party. Among those expressing concerns about the legislation were the European Parliament, the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, the Council of Europes Commissioner for Human Rights and the Hungarian Psychological Society. This decision pushes Hungary back toward the dark ages and tramples the rights of transgender and intersex people, Amnesty International Hungary international researcher Krisztina Tamas-Saroy said in a statement.

Its a relief to reopen the beer garden and then the restaurant for guests, but the new social distancing conditions are very difficult, she says.
