No podcast ‘Notícia No Seu Tempo', confira em áudio as principais notícias da edição impressa do jornal ‘O Estado de S.Paulo' desta quinta-feira (03/10/2024): A agência de classificação Moody's diz que o Brasil tem de 12 a 18 meses para apresentar melhorias na gestão fiscal e indicar um crescimento contínuo à frente se quiser recuperar o grau de investimento, um selo de bom pagador. Segundo a vice-presidente da Moody's para risco soberano, Samar Maziad, entre as melhorias de gestão fiscal, destaca-se a adoção de medidas para conter o aumento das despesas obrigatórias. Na terça-feira, numa decisão considerada surpreendente por parte dos analistas, a agência melhorou a nota de crédito do Brasil, de Ba2 para Ba1, e colocou o País a um passo do grau de investimento. Ao justificar a decisão, a Moody's disse que, embora haja riscos fiscais, os resultados estão evoluindo.

A Moody's, uma das mais renomadas agências de classificação de risco do mundo, anunciou nesta quarta-feira (2) a elevação da nota de crédito do Estado de São Paulo de Ba2 para Ba1. A classificação permanece com perspectiva positiva, refletindo a sólida capacidade do Estado de honrar seus compromissos financeiros e posicionando São Paulo a apenas um nível de alcançar o grau de investimento.
Exatamente cinco meses depois da melhora da perspectiva de rating (classificação de risco) do Brasil, a agência de classificação de risco Moody's decidiu elevar a nota do País — de Ba2 com perspectiva positiva, para Ba1, um grau abaixo do grau de investimento — e manteve a perspectiva positiva. A instituição se adiantou às concorrentes — Fitch e Standard & Poor's (S&P) — que com ela formam as Big 3 no setor. Apesar da melhora do rating pela Moody's, nas três agências, o País segue como um mercado de investimento de grau “especulativo”, que antecede o primeiro nível do selo de bom pagador. "O próprio ministro Fernando Haddad admite que a questão fiscal ainda é um empecilho para a recuperação do Grau de Investimento. O Brasil melhora e é uma boa notícia, mas é surpreendente. O que impulsionou foi o crescimento da Economia. O ano começou com previsão de crescimento baixo e chega ao fim com previsão de crescimento significativo. O governo é gastador e a questão agora é controlar gastos e garantir arrecadação. O recado de Haddad é mais para o Governo que para todo o País", avalia Cantanhêde.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Com a nota passando de Ba2 para Ba1, o Brasil fica mais próximo de reconquistar o grau de investimento alcançado no governo Lula em 2008. O Ministro da Fazenda, Fernando Haddad, e lideranças do PT comemoraram a notícia e destacaram resultados da economia que mostram que o País está no rumo certo. Sonoras:

South Africa may struggle to make much more progress on resolving the country's longstanding challenges if a coalition government emerges after elections this month, Moody's Investors Service cautioned. "These include stimulating years of sluggish economic growth, curbing chronic power shortages and reducing very high unemployment," said Aurelien Mali, vice president - senior credit officer at Moody's. "The current government has made incremental progress on these issues." Opinion polls suggest the ruling African National Congress could lose its national majority in the May 29 elections for the first time since taking power in 1994. While it's expected to remain the largest party, dropping under 50% of the vote will force it to form a coalition government. "The strength or otherwise of the new administration's mandate - and any concessions to minor parties needed to secure support - could make the already complicated management of fiscal, economic and social policy objectives even more difficult," Mali said. Gross domestic product growth in Africa's most industrialized economy has averaged 0.8% in the past decade, a rate insufficient to address rampant unemployment and poverty. Growth has been hampered by fraying port and rail networks, crime and state-owned utility Eskom Holdings's inability to meet electricity demand due to poor maintenance and aging power plants. "The election raises the possibility that policies from comparatively radical parties, including policies not friendly to investors, will emerge," Mali said. "Yet we believe the ANC will remain the dominant political force in South Africa, even within a ruling political coalition, which limits the risks of an abrupt shift from the current mix of economic and financial policies." An Ipsos poll released on April 26 showed ANC support at 40.2% compared with the 57.5% it won in the 2019 election. It also suggested the newly formed uMkhonto weSizwe Party backed by former President Jacob Zuma is sucking voters away from the leftist Economic Freedom Fighters. It saw the EFF polling around 11.5%, down from 19.6% in its February survey, while MKP has the support of 8.4% of voters. Moody's sovereign credit rating for South Africa is stable at Ba2.

The Omicron subvariant BA 2.75 has been detected in Aotearoa for the first time, having been found in two people who arrived from India. The subvariant - nicknamed Centaurus - carries additional mutations to its parent BA2 strain, which has been dominant globally for most of this year.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Covid 5/26/22: I Guess I Should Respond To This Week's Long Covid Study, published by Zvi on May 26, 2022 on LessWrong. I've always at least somewhat tried to model these posts after the pure joy of America's only true newsletter, Matt Levine's Money Stuff. This week I finally got around to listening to Matt do this amazing podcast about the philosophical side of what he does, which I highly recommend. Covering Covid means that the subject matter is always, at its core, a combination of people dying and a portrait of civilizational collapse. The whole situation is usually rather dismaying. It is likely to remain rather dismaying permanently. Thus it is not the ideal place to find delight in one's understanding. Nor is writing up the rise of monkeypox or our national failure to be able to keep even normal baby formula in stock while every other country on Earth has no such issue and most of them are happy to sell formula to us, which has now extended to our family being unable to find any normal brands on Amazon or other online sources, forcing us to buy organic formula instead, which was fortunately available as a still-legal form of price gouging. I am thus excited to once again see the weekly posts decreasing in size as the amount of Covid news decreases. If this continues, soon these posts will be quick to put out, and some time after that perhaps they can stop being weekly. I'm hoping to pivot away from short term developments and towards more longer term, less speed premium explorations of how the world works, in places that can lead to more generally useful insight and more delight, although still with a lot of silent screaming about the ways in which things are terrible. One key is that I like to think of finding out things are terrible, whenever I can, as good news and a source of delight. As long as we know roughly how bad things are already, identifying the sources and finding them to be crazy unnecessary idiocy is often good news. It means things can more easily be fixed. There were some new Long Covid claims this week I felt compelled to respond to, but there isn't a big update to make as a result. Executive Summary Covid-19 still exists and BA.4/5 have substantial immune escape. Thus I keep doing these posts every week. Ideally they keep slowly getting shorter. Let's run the numbers. The Numbers Predictions Prediction from last week: 700,000 cases (+17%) and 2,100 deaths (+5%) Results: 643k cases (+7%) and 2,337 deaths (+17%). Prediction for next week: 700,000 cases (+9%) and 2,725 deaths (+15%). Note that Florida has been adjusted to account for its reporting schedule. It still saw a large increase. Also Vermont failed to report so I gave it last week's number. The surprise was an active decline in cases in the Midwest and East, without any holiday to explain the change. It seems odd for things to reverse in this way, but the prediction has to hedge its bets. For deaths, cases have been climbing for a while so now that we see the numbers trending up and we've wound through our backlogs it makes sense for the number to keep rising for a it. Deaths Cases One could explain the different trajectories using weather or one could say that some places have already peaked because different variants spread in different places at different speeds and times, or both. It could also be some sort of reporting artifact, I'm not yet sure what to make of it. The Never-Ending Pandemic Here we go again with slight variations edition: A prediction that Covid will not only stick around, but ‘infect most people several times a year.' The central problem is that the coronavirus has become more adept at reinfecting people. Already, those infected with the first Omicron variant are reporting second infections with the newer versions of the variant — BA.2 or BA2.12.1 in the Unite...
The last time we talked with Dr. Peter Chin-Hong, it was Dec 2020. Now, it's May 2022 — 17 months later. A lot has changed and in some ways it feels like nothing has changed. This time around, we get into current details around coronavirus/COVID, what's happening now/the current state, and what the future looks like. We recorded this episode over two sessions and along the way we get into many topics, including the notion of reinfections (more and more common with Omicron), how the testing numbers may not reflect actual cases with more and more home testing (and some people not testing at all), how an at-home test is different than a PCR test, and the current slate of variants — BA.1, BA.2, BA2.12.1, BA.4, BA.5, XE, etc. We also touch on COVID therapies including Paxlovid, an oral antiviral treatment, and Evusheld, monoclonal antibodies. As well, we talked about some of what Dr. Chin-Hong is concerned about in the future — including avian flu and influenza along with the idea that diseases like valley fever (coccidioidomycosis) have been creeping up over the last few years because we as humans are settling into areas (more rural, for instance) that large groups of us haven't been before. And then, we end the show by talking about his work as a professor of medicine and educator at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) — what teaching medicine has looked like the last few years with students (and teachers) as little blobs on a screen. Stay tuned until the end of the episode for a longer bit about the flu that didn't really have a place anywhere else. Special Guest: Dr. Peter Chin-Hong.
When Omicron burst onto the scene late last year, scientists were shocked at how many mutations it had compared to previous variants.We now know that it's way more transmissible than previous variants and less nasty than Delta, although that hasn't stopped it from causing a lot of severe disease and death.But biology isn't static and Omicron has continued to evolve. First came BA1, then came a new wave of BA2 and now we're starting to see another new subvariant: BA4.So on today's Coronacast, what is BA4, where did it come from and how much of a worry is it?Also on today's show:* What's going on with the hepatitis condition in kids? Is it being caused by COVID-19?

The first local case of the Omicron XE variant - perhaps better described as a recombinant of the better known BA1 and BA2 sublineages - was reported over the long weekend. XE may or may not be slightly more transmissible than the earlier Omicron versions. How much does it matter and should we be worried? Epidemiologist Michael Baker spoke to Guyon Espiner.

At the start of the pandemic there was a lot of misinformation suggesting that we couldn't be reinfected with coronavirus more than once, but we now know that is simply not the case, and we can in fact contract Covid-19 multiple times. But why is it that some people seem susceptible to falling prey to different variants, even quite close together, while others seem to remain immune, even when they've been surrounded by people who are very unwell? The Quicky speaks to an expert epidemiologist to find out what factors determine whether you are more or less vulnerable to catching Covid-19 more than once, and if there is anything you can do to reduce your risk.

Dr. Matt Hepburn of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy joins Steve and CSIS Senior Associate Tom Cullison for this 130th episode. Beginning as an Army infectious disease researcher and DARPA project manager, Dr. Hepburn's visionary leadership was instrumental in the rapid availability of Covid vaccines through Operation Warp Speed. The world continues to face catastrophic consequences with the highly contagious BA2 variant. Hong Kong, Singapore, South Africa, and others are in the midst of spikes, while China wrestles with the strong likelihood of widespread outbreaks. Africa is largely unvaccinated, adding Covid to the list of diseases that burden the continent. Although he suggests summer will not save the United States from another surge, Dr. Hepburn remains positive. He's posed seemingly impossible challenges like “let's create a vaccine against an unknown disease in 60 days”, then won over skeptics by creating a solution. “We have to change the culture of our government to escape the cycle of crisis and complacency”
As the BA2 subvariant of Omicron infects its way to the top of the coronavirus leaderboard, we're thanking our lucky stars that it's not as or more severe than Delta.But imagine a coronavirus variant that has genes from both Omicron and Delta: enter DeltacronThe ability for two variants to combine and share genetic information is possible, and according to recent research has already happened.So what's the possibility the next variant of concern will not be due to mutation, but instead combining?Also on today's show:* Antibody profile after Omicron* What makes something a subvariant and not just a new variant?* Lots of questions about fourth doses

How Has The War In Ukraine Shaped The Global Energy Market? Russia's war on Ukraine sent shock waves through the global energy market. The United States and the United Kingdom stopped importing Russian oil and gas, and the European Union set a target of reducing their reliance on Russian fossil fuels by two thirds. In the short term some countries may start relying more on dirty fossil fuels like coal to cushion the economic impact of the shifting energy market. However, some experts believe the current political situation may inspire a lasting transition to clean energy. Guest host John Dankosky talks with Tim Revell, United States Deputy Editor at New Scientist about the changes to the global energy market and other top science news of the week, including the latest on the BA2 covid-19 variant, Orangutan slang, the winner of the prestigious Abel prize in mathematics, lettuce genetically modified to prevent bone loss, and robots who learned to peel bananas without crushing them. Why Climate Change May Bring More West Nile Virus To The U.S. Michael Keasling of Lakewood, Colorado, was an electrician who loved big trucks, fast cars, and Harley-Davidsons. He'd struggled with diabetes since he was a teenager, needing a kidney transplant from his sister to stay alive. He was already quite sick in August when he contracted West Nile virus after being bitten by an infected mosquito. Keasling spent three months in hospitals and rehab, then died on Nov. 11 at age 57 from complications of West Nile virus and diabetes, according to his mother, Karen Freeman. She said she misses him terribly."I don't think I can bear this," Freeman said shortly after he died. Spring rain, summer drought, and heat created ideal conditions for mosquitoes to spread the West Nile virus through Colorado last year, experts said. West Nile killed 11 people and caused 101 cases of neuroinvasive infections—those linked to serious illnesses such as meningitis or encephalitis—in Colorado in 2021, the highest numbers in 18 years. The rise in cases may be a sign of what's to come: As climate change brings more drought and pushes temperatures toward what is termed the “Goldilocks zone” for mosquitoes—not too hot, not too cold—scientists expect West Nile transmission to increase across the country.

Millions Of Iowa Chickens Infected With Deadly Strain Of Bird Flu Iowa and federal agriculture officials have confirmed a deadly strain of bird flu in a large commercial flock of egg-laying hens in northwest Iowa's Buena Vista County. It's the fourth case of bird flu in the state and the largest flock to date to be infected by this year's outbreak. Chloe Carson, a spokesperson for the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship, said Friday that initial reports indicate there are approximately 5.3 million birds in the flock. Carson said the department won't have exact numbers for a few days. The numbers will be released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture once all the birds have been destroyed to prevent the disease from spreading. It's the second confirmed case of bird flu in Buena Vista County this year. The virus was confirmed in a commercial flock of nearly 50,000 turkeys in the county on March 6. The deadly strain was also confirmed in a flock of more than 915,000 commercial egg-laying hens in southwest Iowa's Taylor County on March 10 and a backyard flock of nearly 50 chickens and ducks in Pottawattamie County on March 1. Agriculture officials have cautioned producers and backyard flock owners to keep their birds away from wild birds that are migrating. They can carry the virus in their saliva or feces and show no signs of infection. Bird flu has been found in commercial and backyard flocks in 17 states, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Iowa has about 56 million egg-laying chickens and is the top egg-producing state in the country. In the 2014-2015 bird flu outbreak, Iowa and Minnesota were hit the hardest. More than 50 million birds were killed in that outbreak, including nearly 33 million in Iowa. 5,000 Total Exoplanets Have Now Been Discovered This week, the NASA Exoplanet Archive logged the 5,000th confirmed planet outside of our solar system. This marks a huge advance since the first exoplanet discovery in 1992, when astronomers Aleksander Wolszczan and Dale Frail announced the discovery of two planets orbiting the pulsar PSR 1257+12. Now, the Archive contains confirmed sightings of planets in a wide range of shapes and sizes—from "hot Jupiters" to "super Earths"—but they still haven't found any solar systems just like our own. In many cases, all astronomers know about these distant planets is their size and how far away from their stars they orbit. The TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) mission currently in orbit may eventually add 10,000 more candidates to the lists of possible planets. The Nancy Grace Roman Space telescope and ESA's ARIEL mission, both planned for launch later this decade, could add thousands more. And the James Webb Space Telescope, currently undergoing commissioning, will attempt to characterize the atmospheres of some of the planets astronomers have already discovered. Astronomer Jessie Christiansen, the NASA Exoplanet Archive Project science lead, joins John Dankosky to talk about what we know about planets around distant suns, and how researchers are working to learn more about these far-off worlds.
With cases rising quickly again, it's left many wondering: wasn't the peak supposed to be behind us? Well, turns out the pandemic isn't over and a mix of relaxed restrictions and the BA2 sub-variant have combined to once again push up infections. It also shows that the rollercoaster ride that we're on may not be stopping for a while, and the up and down nature is something we'll have to get used to. Also on today's show: * Increase in diabetes with long COVID * More on if we're going to need a 4th dose

Following a brutal winter during the Delta and Omicron waves of COVID, Colorado's case numbers are the lowest they've been in a long time. But as Omicron subvariant BA2 begins to spread, case numbers have recently started to creep back up. Could Colorado be in for another COVID wave, just as testing and tracking measures are winding down? Colorado Sun reporter John Ingold spoke with David Gilbert about what the data shows.

The sub-variant of Omicron, known at the moment as BA2, is being blamed for a rise in cases in NSW and likely in other states and territories.And overseas, Hong Kong is struggling with a wave which is killing more and more people due to low levels of vaccination in high risk age groups.So what could the sub-variant mean for Australia as the weather slowly cools down and we enter darker, cooler times?Also on today's show:* China goes into lockdown in several big cities* Australian researchers have uncovered resistance mutations to Sotrovimab
