Juventus football club of Italy have confirmed that defender Daniele Rugani has tested positive for the deadly Coronavirus, that is sweeping across Italy, Europe and much of Asia.
Juventus released a statement on Wednesday night announcing that the 25-year-old Italy international, who made seven appearances for the Serie A side this season, has contracted the virus but is showing no symptoms.
According to the club, Rugani has now been quarantined in a bid to reduce the risk of the footballer to his Juventus teammates and club coaches.
Juventus said on their official website: “The footballer Daniele Rugani has tested positive for Coronavirus-COVID-19 and is currently asymptomatic.
“Juventus Football Club is currently activating all the isolation procedures required by law, including the census of those who have had contact with him.”
Cristiano Ronaldo is currently spending time in his Portugues hometown of Madeira to avoid contracting the virus in italy where the case is high, as all sporting activities have been stopped in the country.
Ronaldo’s doctors reportedly ordered him to stay away from training at the club’s facilities in Turin to avoid any risk of infection.
A man in London has become the second patient to be cured of HIV as confirmed in a new report published on Tuesday March 10, in the journal The Lancet HIV.
The man formerly known as the “London Patient”, went public with his identity and has revealed his name as Adam Castillejo. He is said to be originally from Venezuela. Mr Castillejo was not cured by HIV drugs but by a stem-cell treatment he received for a cancer he also had.
He was reportedly diagnosed with HIV in 2003 and had been on medication to keep the disease in check since 2012. He was also diagnosed with advanced Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (a deadly cancer), hence why he underwent a bone marrow transplant in 2016.
Last year, researchers reported that Castillejo had experienced “long-term remission” from the virus after undergoing a special bone-marrow transplant. At that time, Castillejo had been HIV-free for 18 months. Now 12 months later, his doctors are more sure that his case does indeed represent a cure.
Ravindra Kumar Gupta, a professor of clinical microbiology at the University of Cambridge and lead author of the study disclosed that there is no detectable active HIV infection in his blood, semen or tissues.
The professor told BBC news;
“This represents HIV cure with almost certainty.
“We have now had two and a half years with anti-retroviral-free remission.
“Our findings show that the success of stem-cell transplantation as a cure for HIV, first reported nine years ago in the Berlin Patient, can be replicated.”
“It is important to note that this curative treatment is high-risk and only used as a last resort for patients with HIV who also have life-threatening haematological malignancies.
“Therefore, this is not a treatment that would be offered widely to patients with HIV who are on successful anti-retroviral treatment.”
Researchers revealed that the stem-cell transplants appear to stop the virus from being able to replicate inside the body by replacing the patient’s own immune cells with donor ones that resist HIV infection.
The first patient to be cured of HIV is Timothy Brown, also known as the “Berlin patient”. He received a similar bone-marrow transplant in 2007 and has been HIV-free for more than a decade.
Researchers cautioned that the breakthrough did not constitute a generalised cure for HIV which leads to nearly one million deaths every year. According to them, Castillejo and Brown needed the transplants to treat cancer and not HIV.
Though no active viral infection was found in Castillejo’s body, “remnants” of HIV’s DNA were found in some cells after a medical test was conducted. But the authors said these traces of DNA can be thought of as “fossils,” because they are unlikely to allow the virus to replicate.
A Nigerian Man on facebook has adviced other men on what it means to be a “real man” and to have a successful marriage.
The man, who goes by Prince Kellz on Facebook, said a woman having a job breeds pride, therefore real men know to stop their wives from working.
His post reads ;
“A real man should not even dream for her (sic) wife to be successful. Cuz that’s the end of the marriage.
“Real men stop their wife work so that her pride will reduce. He will open business for her or place her on salary for peace to rain (sic).
“Naturally proof says that … The more woman makes money or gets successful is more she feels that there no need for a man in her life. And she will start developing rudeness, sturbon (sic), pride and more.
“Next, she will be threatening the man with divorce. Cuz she feels she can pay her bills now.”

Two children have died while their mother is fighting for her life in an intensive care unit after they had a meal which was allegedly poisoned.
Sindiswa Moloi, 33, from Katlehong in Ekurhuleni slipped into a coma and was admitted at a hospital in Alberton following suspected poisoning which killed her two children Nkanyezi, 11, and Michelle, 8.
The two were certified dead near their Tshongweni Section home in Katlehong on Thursday evening – about an hour after eating supper.
Moloi’s family suspects that a very close family relative may be behind the alleged poisoning incident.
Police spokesperson Capt Lesetja Mathobela, who confirmed the incident said two inquest dockets have been opened.
“We have not yet made arrests because we are waiting for the laboratory results to confirm if what was found on the food they ate was indeed poison,” said Mathobela on Tuesday.
Mathobela said Moloi’s husband was taken in for questioning after he admitted to the police that he cooked the food but did not eat it himself. He was later released after being interrogated.
He said after Moloi’s husband’s release, he was also admitted into a different hospital after he allegedly also consumed food with poison.
“He is not in a critical condition. Investigation is ongoing,” he said.
Moloi’s cousin Beverley Mofokeng, who was among the first to arrive at the scene, said the incident happened around an hour after the family had supper.
“Just after 7pm, the first child – Nkanyezi – began to feel sick. While they were waiting for the neighbour to drive Nkanyezi to hospital, Moloi also collapsed and she and her son began discharging froth from their mouths,” Mofokeng said.
Within minutes, Michelle also collapsed with froth coming out of her mouth.
“The children took their last breath lying down, while their mother was rushed to hospital where she was admitted in the intensive care unit upon arrival and her husband was there watching,” said Mofokeng.
Sibongile Letele, Moloi’s mother, said she got a call about the incident on Thursday night while she was in Soweto, where she currently lives.
“My relatives called me around 9pm and told me that I should come to Katlehong because my daughter was being taken to hospital and her children had died at the neighbour’s yard while waiting for emergency services,” she said.
Letele said she gave her daughter Moloi and her husband, Katlehong, her house two years ago after they moved out of a rented apartment in Johannesburg due to financial struggles.
But she said she had begged her daughter to come back home with the children because, as a mother, she could tell that Sindiswa was no longer happy with something, even though she had been very secretive about it.
“Just before this incident happened I begged her to come back home, I don’t know how I will tell her that her children have died when she wakes up from the coma,” said Letele.

Michael Mundy who played ‘zombie’ in the hit movie, ‘The Walking Dead’, is cooling off in jail after brutally biting and abusing his girlfriend.

Mount Zion movies actor, Hassan Doyin has reacted after he became a trend on social media when people recalled how his face scared them as kids.
A lady shared a picture of his to reveal that his face scared her a lot when she was a kid watching a movie he starred in 20 years ago.
Reacting to the mentions he got and the comments that followed the lady’s post which all expressed similar experience, Hassan Doyin shared:
He wrote: “God is faithful. For those who are scared of my role in Captives of the Mighty (Iguana 2000) I apologize. It was my innocent way of interpreting the role. Its all acting. I thank God for the Holy Spirit that I am alive, hale and hearty on my feet.
It was such overwhelming comments that made Christopher Lee hang himself. He felt bad that people hated him for the role he played in a horror movie.
I’ve acted in a handful of gospel messages, but people don’t forget the negative roles. I played Natas in the Heretic in 1985/86. No Cassette, No VCD then. See how one’s past can impact on future generations? It was just acting….but the comments really scared me! Thanks”.

You are not alone in struggle to fight corruption – Nelson Mandela’s wife tell Sanusi
Nelson Mandela’s wife, Graca Machel has expressed sadness over the dethronement and banishment of Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi.
The Kaduna government on Monday dethroned Sanusi for alleged disrespect to lawful instructions from the Governor Abdullahi Ganduje-led state government and lawful authorities.
One of the sons of late Emir of Kano, Ado Bayero, Aminu Ado Bayero was immediately named as the 15th Fulani Emir of the state even as the government banished the ex-CBN governor to a remote village in Nasarawa State..
Machel in a letter of solidarity to Sanusi reassured the deposed Emir that he is not alone in the struggle to ‘confront corruption affecting Northern Nigeria.’
She stressed that she would continue to stand with Sanusi in his courage to always speak the truth to those in power.
The letter read in part, “I am deeply saddened to hear of you been relieved of your official duties as emir of Kano and authorities
“I am sending you this message of solidarity in the hopes that it provides you in some small measure with reassurance and a degree of comfort that you are not alone in your valiant struggles to confront corruption and the social ills bordering Northern Nigeria.
“Your influential voice as a man, as a traditional ruler and a religious authority in challenging the status quo is sorely needed not only in Nigeria but throughout Africa. You are a bold inspiration for leaders to hold themselves to account all in their power to improve the wellbeing of all its citizens under their watch, especially women and children.”

President Buhari has spoken out on the issue of the deadly coronavirus affecting the revenue of the nation.
Buhari disclosed this while receiving workers in the health sector under the aegis of Joint Health Sector Unions and Assembly Healthcare Professionals Associations yesterday, March 10.
The Nigerian Leader who urged the health workers to moderate their demands on government as it could affect the economy, stated that his administration is looking for different ways to address the challenges the outbreak of the virus poses to the Nigerian economy.
In a statement released by Presidential spokesperson Garba Shehu, Buhari said;
“Your case is certainly receiving attention, but you must bear in mind the condition that the country is in now. Coronavirus is not improving matters. It is affecting what we very much depend on, the petroleum industry and therefore revenue.
“So, please try and help us with your people. Let us be patriotic, let us look at the ways and means of the government and appeal for restraint…We have to emphasize that it is very important we maintain cohesion together, because if we allow sentiments or popularity to overwhelm our reasoning faculties, we will be in trouble and it will be too late for us to adjust, so please bear with us.”
President Buhari also expressed hope of his administration’s drive for food sufficiency in the last four years, coming in handy with the drop in government revenue.
He added;
“We thank God; God is very sympathetic to us. The three previous rainy seasons were good. We had good foresight in getting fertiliser, making it available and we virtually achieved food security. We made good decisions, and we saved hundreds of millions of dollars on importation of food. If not, we would have been in real trouble.”
How is that even possible? TJ gave account of his latest discovery and how he did it. One would have thought it’s a big deal but it is simple and easy..
First step; He uncovered a reliable and trustworthy tipster from UK that concentrate solely on OVER 1.5 GOALS. He made use of the tips supplied from them daily. Average of 100% – 500% return on capital monthly was achieved using 3 rollover strategy. (That is explained in a video tutorial to those who will be fortunate to join in this)
The journey to uncovering the trusted tipsters took him 4years of falling into the hands of scammers. So many stories but I have to cut short to save us time.
Secondly step; Adetunji sees football betting from a different perspective unlike many others sees it. The reason he called his approach FOOTBALL TRADING and not football betting. He follows a laid down plan. Only 2% of people around the globe into football betting know about this secret approach.
N200,000 starting capital
It will wow you to know it was 200k he turned to 6.2million naira in 3 months. He funded his betting account with 200k and subscribed to start receiving games from his trusted tipster.
The strategy is to stake N20,000 only at the beginning of a rollover cycle (10% of capital at the beginning of a rollover) and this grows along.
Below is sample of what 3 rollover means. It’s the best for the over 1.5 goals package. It will be explained in details. Started the one below with 42k and made it 69k the 1st day. Used the 69k and turned it to 125k the 2nd day. And on the final day, the 3rd day, used the 125k to achieve 215k. That ends the rollover. A successful rollover. Achieving 6+ of such rollovers monthly is the target.
Click Here=> http://bit.ly/faizfah , to subscribe to Adetunji’s inner circle and you will see the breakdown of the process. He doesn’t gamble but follow a laid down rule. He uses 10% of his capital to begin the rollover cycle of the over 1.5 goals. He trusted his UK’s tipster for this and strictly use his games.
He confessed that on rare occasion, the tipster might have a bad month in terms of performance. He recalled a certain bad month but having come a long way to trust them, he always keeps calm, think of long-term benefits and hope for the best. And overall, it’s been fantastic.
The month was February with -120% but, that the only negative month so far in 2019. Here are the PROFIT/LOSS for 2019 using the system.
January +299% , February -120%, March +379%, April +348%, May +375%, June +133%, July +648%, August +531%, September +656% and October 139%
This whole thing might look complex especially to those who are not used to football betting already. But it isn’t. Even someone who hasn’t done anything related to football betting before can implement this. Even if you don’t know who C. Ronaldo or Mourinho is.
I have told ADETUNJI to give more detailed explanation of the steps and processes involved, including sharing the games of his trusted Tipster and his strategy of using it daily. If you want that, Great! It means you can replicate his success.
Below is this Guy in the little world of his own. He vowed to me that his target for the next 6months from football trading is 20 Million.
I have convinced him to show this secret to just 97 people on how he did it. Click on this link => http://bit.ly/faizfah to subscribe to him today
