Gemma Di Pietro via Acquire Licensing Rights Read moreROME, Sept 1 (Reuters) - The death of a mother bear shot near a national park in central Italy, leaving two cubs to fend for themselves, has drawn condemnation from animal rights groups and politicians. It was not clear why the bear was shot, but hunting bears is against the law in Italy. The National Park of Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise is home to around 50 brown bears, a species found in central Italy. The uproar over the shooting of the bear follows an argument over an incident in April when a bear killed a 26-year-old runner in northern Italy.

It does not apply to products made or sold elsewhere in the European Union, in Turkey or in the European Economic Area (EEA). The nationalist administration of Giorgia Meloni has pledged to shield Italy's food from technological innovations seen as harmful, and renamed the agriculture ministry the "ministry for agriculture and food sovereignty". Minister Francesco Lollobrigida, one of Meloni's closest allies, says laboratory products endanger the traditional link between agriculture and food. The ban on "cell-based" meat is not the only initiative the right-wing government in Rome has put in place to block non-conventional food from being served on Italian tables. Agricultural lobby Coldiretti on Tuesday praised the government's move against "synthetic food", saying the ban was needed to safeguard home production "from the attacks of multinational companies".

Mii de cazuri au fost înregistrate în ultimele luni la pacienți bolnavi de COVID sau care se recuperaseră după infecția cu coronavirus. Ministerul va putea astfel să monitorizeze mai atent evoluția din fiecare stat și să recomande tratamentele necesare. Nu este clar exact câte cazuri există în India, care trece acum prin al doilea val de coronavirus, cu sute de mii de infecții noi și mii de decese zilnic. Este cauzată de expunerea la o ciupercă care se găsește de obicei în pământ, în plante, bălegar, fructe sau legume putrezite. Ciuperca neagră afectează sinusurile, creierul și plămânii și poate fi fatală pentru pacienții diabetici sau cu imunitatea scăzută (cancer, HIV/SIDA).
