6,200 Doctors Approve Chloroquine As ‘Most Effective’ Treatment For Coronavirus

6,200 Doctors Approve Chloroquine As ‘Most Effective’ Treatment For Coronavirus


The malaria drug hydroxychloroquine is the best coronavirus drug currently available, according to an international poll of thousands of doctors.
Of 6,200 physicians surveyed from 30 countries, the majority (37 percent) said it was the ‘most effective therapy’ for the virus.
But the World Health Organization, WHO claims that ‘there is no evidence’ that any medicine ‘can prevent or cure the disease’.
With a spiraling crisis and no cure in sight, doctors in Europe, the US and China have been given license to prescribe the promising drug to COVID-19 patients.
But the UK has prevented clinicians from dishing out hydroxychloroquine – a form of chloroquine – until clinical trials are completed.
Chloroquine (CQ), branded as Aralen, and counterpart hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), known as Plaquenil, are well-established medicines.
They are also prescribed on the NHS to treat rheumatoid arthritis and lupus and have been used since the 1940s.
The latest poll, conducted by Sermo – a ‘virtual lounge’ for doctors, found the tablets were most widely used for COVID-19 in Spain, where 72 percent of physicians said they had prescribed them.

The new iPad Pro finally turns Apple's tablet into a laptop rival

The new Pro gets a bunch of impressive upgrades including an awesome new backlit keyboard with trackpad and mouse compatibility thanks to new iOS cursor support. Oh, and there's a new MacBook Air

The iPad Pro has been a strange beast for Apple: undoubtedly powerful yet more expensive in some cases than high-end laptops but with a form factor that precluded some of the best elements of mobile computing, mainly the obvious convenience of a trackpad and cursor.
Now these features have finally been added with the new iPad Pro thanks to an all-new Magic Keyboard. As well as supposedly offering "the best typing experience ever on iPad" (the old version was already good), you also get a gesture-supporting trackpad that works with iPadOS, a USB‑C port that allows pass‑through charging on the Pro, as well as the obligatory front and back protection.
The design seems particularly impressive, and features a floating cantilever design, which means you attach an iPad Pro magnetically and then tilt it to a viewing angle anywhere between zero and 130 degrees, much like you would the screen of your laptop. The full-size keyboard now has with backlit keys with individual hard keycaps and a scissor mechanism with 1mm travel.
There is a USB-C port in the "hinge" of the Magic Keyboard case, which allows you to charge the iPad Pro via pass‑through charging while leaving the tablet's own USB-C slot free for use with other accessories.
Apple is hoping that tracpad and mouse compatibility – yes, you will be able to link third-party trackpads and mice – will entice those professionals who could not leave the familiarity of the laptop UI over to trying the new iPad Pro. But this will also be a boon for existing iPad users as there will no doubt be a flood of third-party trackpads and iPad-specific mice coming to accessory stores before the month is out...

With trackpad support – coming with the iPadOS 13.4 update released on March 24 – Apple says it has attempted to "reimagine the cursor experience", a result of which sees the on-screen cursor perform in a contextual manner. This means it will change shape into the tool you need depending on the content you’re pointing at, like buttons, app icons and text or spreadsheet cells. However, although you can order the new iPad Pro now, with deliveries starting next week, the Magic Keyboard – costing from £299 – will not be available until May. So you may want to hold off till it’s available.
Other new features Apple hopes will expand the appeal of the Pro are an even more powerful A12Z Bionic chip, and an additional ultra-wide camera lens as seen on the latest iPhone (though you get a 10MP version here as opposed to the iPhone's 12MP), five "studio-quality" mics and a LiDAR scanner designed specifically for mobile that supposedly delivers much improved depth-sensing capabilities.
The LiDAR scanner measures the distance to surrounding objects up to five meters away, and works both indoors and outdoors. Apple is doubling down on AR here and hopes this new tech usually associated with autonomous cars will cement its place in the augmented reality world as the system is much more accurate than that on the existing iPad Pro.
This is illustrated by whereas before you had to help the tablet find level ground before it would start to built the AR world on top of the camera view, now that happens instantly. The new LiDAR scanner setup also allows the iPad Pro to identify elements of rooms, such as walls, furniture, floors and curtains. We can imagine third-party app makers from the likes of IKEA as well as game developers will have fun with such abilities even though this particular field is still very much in its infancy.
The new Pros come in 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB versions, while the 11-inch iPad Pro starts at £769 for the Wi-Fi model and £919 for Wi-Fi & Cellular. The 12.9-inch iPad Pro starts at £969 for the Wi-Fi model and £1,119 for the Wi-Fi & Cellular flavour.
iPadOS 13.4 with that trackpad support will be available on March 24 for all iPad Pros, iPad Air 2 and later, iPad 5th generation and later and iPad mini 4 and later. Trackpad support will work with Apple’s Magic Mouse 2, Magic Trackpad 2 and the Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro as well as third-party mice connected over Bluetooth or USB.


New MacBook Air


The redesigned Magic scissor-switch Keyboard also makes an appearance on the new 13-inch MacBook Air, making it the second in the MacBook line-up – behind the 16-inch Pro – to move away from the butterfly keyboard. It’s backlit and there’s 1mm of key travel.

The new Air has been given a reduction in price to £999 for the Core i3 model and £1,299 for the Core i5 upgrade meaning that after it went up last year, the base price is now back below £1,000. This time you get 256GB of storage capacity too. (If you have the cash you can go up to a 2TB SSD on this thing).
The keyboard and the new price are the two headlines here but other spec bumps include support for monitors up to 6K, two Thunderbolt 3 ports and a new three-mic array to improve quality for voice pickup for video calls. The screen meanwhile is Apple’s excellent 13.3-inch 2560 x 1600 Retina Display while the battery life is “all day” so we’re not getting huge improvements there.
As you’d expect there’s a performance boost, of up to 2x, from the 10th-gen Intel processors inside and Apple is also claiming you’ll get 80 per cent faster graphics performance with the Intel Iris Plus Graphics. How much this new Air cannibalises sales from the 13in MacBook Pro remains to be seen.
The MacBook Air (2020) is up for pre-order online now and in stores - whichever of those are open, following Apple’s announcement that it is shutting all Apple Stores outside China due to coronavirus.

New Mac Mini

Rounding out Apple’s March launches is an updated Mac Mini. There’s eighth-gen Core i5 and i7 processors for ‘fives times faster performance’, Intel UHD Graphics 630 and Thunderbolt 3, HDMI 2.0 and Ethernet. Plus Apple has reworked the cooling system and each model now has double the storage. So for £799 you now get 256GB and for £1099, it’s 512GB. Finally, the threat of the cloud seems to have made Cupertino less stingy in this department.

Infinix Hot 8 Specs and Price

The Infinix Hot 8 is the latest iteration to the Hot Series and successor to the Infinix Hot 7 and Hot 7 Pro. Infinix is back with the latest installment in the Hot series, and we have the Hot 8 to show for that. It offering improved performance with more battery capacity.

Where to Buy Infinix Hot 8

Jumia Nigeria – See Offers | Jumia Kenya – See Offers
For one, we already know that the Hot series is where Infinix releases the devices that will serve as their low-level midrange units for the season, so we are not expecting too much from it. Even at that, though, how does this compare?
Let’s find out.

Infinix Hot 8 Key Specs and Features

  • 6.52 inch IPS infinity-V display, 720 x 1600 pixels, 20:9 aspect ratio (~269 ppi density)
  • Android 9.0 (Pie), XOS 5.0
  • Mediatek MT6761 Helio A22 (12 nm) – 32/2 GB; Mediatek MT6762 Helio P22 (12 nm) – 64/4 GB
  • 32GB Storage (with 2GB RAM), 64GB storage (with 4GB RAM)
  • 13MP + 2MP + QVGA Triple Rear Camera
  • 8MP Selfie snapper
  • microSD, up to 256 GB (dedicated slot)
  • 5000 mAh Non-removable Li-Po Battery

Design and Display

Infinix has grown a lot from the wide notch to the waterdrop-style notch that they have on the current Hot 8. The 6.52-inch IPS screen might sound massive, but it becomes manageable with a 20:9 aspect ratio.
In the same vein, this screen is impressive with almost 82% of space covered relative to the body of the smartphone on the front.
Enough of the front for now.
On the back of the Infinix Hot 8, we have a horizontal triple-camera arrangement that we have seen more times than we care to mention just this year alone. Infinix keeps the fingerprint scanner on the back, even though they could have moved it under the screen or hidden it on the side of the phone.
Worthy of note, though, is that the back of this phone is made of glass. We would never have expected such premium treatment on a phone of this level.
Coming in colour options of Quetzal Cyan, Cosmic Purple, Shark Grey and Midnight Black, the Infinix Hot 8 does score good points for design.

Camera

An 8 megapixels snapper on the front of the Infinix Hot 8 will handle selfie needs. We don’t suppose it would take the best selfies on the market, but it should be fairer than most.
On the back, though, we have some good challengers. The main 13 megapixels sensor is designed for wide image capturing, and that will be paired with a 2MP sensor for better depth capturing. There is a third sensor (QVGA camera) in there, but that would be for bettering captures in low light.

Interestingly, the selfie camera comes with a LED flash of its own, so it will do well in some low light situations too. To better the prospects of the rear camera, we have a quad-LED camera setup in there.

Hardware, Software and Other Features

Infinix decided to test two different chipsets for different configurations of the Hot 8. The 2GB RAM + 32GB ROM storage option of this affordable Android phone comes with a MediaTek MT6761 Helio A22 chipset while the 4GB RAM + 64GB ROM option will use the MT6762 chipset instead.
Both of these chipsets are manufactured with the 12nm process, so they won’t differ much in their efficiency and operational capacity either. However, the first one is a quad-core chipset while the latter is an octa-core SoC instead.
The means the second model of the Infinix Hot 8 with octa-core and 4GB RAM is built for consumers looking for more performance for gaming and multitasking.
No matter which unit you pick, you get Android 9 Pie operating system with the in-house XOS 5.0 running on top, paired with the PowerVR GE8320 GPU in the chipset.
Fortunately, Infinix didn’t think to remove the 3.5mm jack from their own unit – and they even worked in Dirac Surround Sound for the speakers.
Carrying a non-removable 5000mAh battery to match, users will get all the power they need with this device. But then, there is no promise of a fast charge technology in sight.

Infinix Hot 8 Price and Availability

Infinix Hot 8 is expected to hit the shelves from the 12th of September, and it should start retailing at about $97. It is available in India starting at 7,999 INR.
Depending on the internal configurations of your choice unit, preferred colour and such other specifics, prices may differ from place to place

iPhone 11 Pro Max review: salvaged by epic battery life

A great camera, screen and performance can’t save horrendous ergonomics, but at least it’ll last two days on battery


The biggest, most expensive new smartphone from Apple is the iPhone 11 Pro Max, and you’ll need a small fortune to buy it.
The new 6.5in iPhone 11 Pro Max costs from £1,149 and is in effect its smaller 5.8in iPhone 11 Pro sibling put in a photocopier with a 12% magnification applied.
It has the exact same aluminium and glass design, the same notched screen with Face ID, the same camera arrangement on the back and the same Lightning port in the bottom. It is the same phone. Except that enlarging everything (apart from thickness) by 10%-12% creates a very different experience.

Like the iPhone XS Max it replaces, the iPhone 11 Pro Max is really difficult to use with one hand. At 77.8mm it is hand-stretchingly wide, wider still than the already massive OnePlus 7 Pro (75.9mm) and even the positively gigantic Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ (75.9mm), and at 226g it is heavier than competitors by a full 20g. But more than that, the rounded stainless steel sides provide no grip at all, meaning your fingers simply slip off them when you stretch across to reach the other side of the screen or the top left corner, which you frequently need to do in iOS.
It’s a combination that either results in hand pain or wallet pain, as it slips out of your fingers and plummets on to the unforgiving floor below. You then stick it in a case, which makes it even bigger. If there was ever a phone to benefit from a grip accessory of some kind, this is it.
So unless you have giant hands, the iPhone 11 Pro Max is exclusively a two-handed phone. But I’d argue that there are always times when you need to use a phone one-handed: public transport, carrying a bag, taking a selfie and so on.
The 6.5in Super Retina XDR “Pro level” OLED screen is just as wonderful as the one on the smaller iPhone 11 Pro, although it isn’t a massive leap over that fitted to significantly cheaper rivals such as the OnePlus 7 Pro. Flip it over and the frosted, almost metallic-like glass and square camera lump with three lenses poking out is new.

Specifications

  • Screen: 6.5in Super Retina XDR (OLED) (458ppi)
  • Processor: Apple A13 Bionic
  • RAM: 4GB of RAM
  • Storage: 64GB, 256GB or 512GB
  • Operating system: iOS 13
  • Camera: Triple 12MP rear cameras with OIS, 12MP front-facing camera
  • Connectivity: LTE, wifi 6, NFC, Bluetooth 5, Lightning, Ultra Wideband and GPS
  • Dimensions: 158 x 77.8 x 8.1 mm
  • Weight: 226g

A13 Bionic



The iPhone 11 Pro Max has the same A13 Bionic chip, 4GB of RAM and at least 64GB of storage as the rest of the iPhone 11 line, and performs similarly. Everything happens promptly, including intensive tasks such as video editing and gaming, and it should be a top performer for years to come.
The use of Lightning over the newer, more adaptable and useful USB-C is disappointing, as is the 64GB of starting storage. If you want to use your massive phone screen to watch video or play games, or you shoot any number of photos or 4K videos, you’re going to fill that up in no time.
Apple says it has managed to make the iPhone 11 Pro last five hours longer between charges than the iPhone XS Max, which managed 27 hours in my testing.
The iPhone 11 Pro Max beats that estimate by some margin, lasting just minutes shy of a full 48 hours between charges. That means the phone lasts from 7am on day one until about 6.50am on day three, propelling the iPhone 11 Pro Max into the two-day battery club previously only populated by a variety of Huawei’s top phones.
That was after the iOS 13.1.2 update, while using it as my primary device without a smartwatch attached, sending and receiving 100 emails and messages, 80 push notifications, listening to five hours of music on Bluetooth headphones, watching an hour of Netflix, and shooting about 10 photos a day.
The iPhone 11 Pro Max ships with an 18W USB-C fast charger and a USB-C to Lightning cable in the box. A full charge from flat took two hours 20 minutes, but hit 50% in 31 minutes and 70% in 46 minutes, slowing charging to a trickle above 95%.
The phone also gets pretty hot when fast charging. It can wirelessly charge too, but can’t charge other devices.
It’s also worth noting that iOS 13 includes a battery optimisation feature, which is designed to learn your habits and only charge the battery past 80% when it thinks you need it to extend its longevity.

iOS 13.1.2


The iPhone 11 Pro shipped with iOS 13 but was quickly updated three times to iOS 13.1.2, following the same issues suffered with the iPhone 11.
Dark mode, swipe typing on the Apple keyboard, improved quick setting access and menstrual cycle tracking are all new highlights of iOS 13.
The iPhone 11 Pro Max also has a few additions for the large screen such as a split-screen view in Mail, Calendar, Messages and others that aren’t present on the smaller iPhone 11 Pro. It also supports a few tricks to help with one-handed use such as bringing the top of the screen down or moving the keyboard to one of the sides, which itself is difficult to do with your right hand as the button to activate it is in the bottom left corner of the screen.
It’s the back gesture, which is a swipe in from the left edge of the screen, that’s a killer for a right-handed user. Trying to do that with one hand is equal parts frustration and dread.
Apple leads the industry in software updates, providing at least five years of support from release, where other manufacturers cap out at about three years, and has recently shown a surprising ability to rapidly push out bug fix updates in quick succession.

iPhone 11 Pro Max review

The iPhone 11 Pro Max has Apple’s new triple 12-megapixel camera setup – the same as the smaller iPhone 11 Pro. The combination of ultrawide, wide and telephoto cameras gives you the ability to shoot at 0.5x, 1x or 2x optical zoom, then up to 10x digital zoom.
Overall, it’s a massive step up on previous iPhone cameras, and better still than the cheaper iPhone 11. Apple’s new night mode brings it up to par with the best rivals on very low-light photography, while the new deep fusion technology rolling out with iOS 13.2 is getting closer than ever to the clarity of fine detail of an SLR with a large lens.
The photos used for this review were all shot on an iPhone 11 Pro running iOS 13.2 beta.
After lagging the ultra-competitive camera competition for some time, Apple is firmly up with the best with the iPhone 11 Pro line.

Observations


  • The iPhone 11 Pro Max is water resistant to IP68 standards of up to 4m for 30 minutes – which is 2m deeper last year’s iPhone XS Max
  • Bluetooth performance is much improved, with stronger connections to even the weakest of headphones
  • Face ID is still best-in-class, now slightly faster and working at slightly wider angles
  • The new U1 chip enables enhanced location abilities, but so far it’s only used for directional AirDrop file sharing
  • The highly polished stainless steel is easy to mark and dull in even careful general use
  • The pressure sensitive screen of previous iPhones is gone and with it 3D Touch, so you can’t press harder on things any more

Price

The iPhone 11 Pro Max costs £1,149 for 64GB of storage, £1,299 for 256GB or £1,499 for 512GB in black, green, silver or gold.
For comparison, the iPhone 11 Pro costs £1,049, the iPhone 11 costs £729 and the iPhone XR costs £629.
The OnePlus 7 costs £499, the Samsung Galaxy S10 costs £799 and the Huawei P30 Pro costs £799.

Verdict

There’s an excellent super-sized smartphone within Apple’s grasp, but unfortunately the iPhone 11 Pro Max isn’t it.
A design that works at the much smaller size of the 5.8in iPhone 11 Pro simply doesn’t at the gargantuan 6.5in iPhone 11 Pro Max, meaning Apple’s biggest phone suffers from terrible ergonomics.
I get that uniformity is Apple’s schtick, but in this case it actively makes the product worse. Of all the massive phones I’ve used across the years, the heavy, slippery iPhone 11 Pro Max and iPhone XS Max before it are the only ones to give me serious hand pain. It’s literally a crying shame, because everything else about it – from the camera, the screen and the performance – is great.
When it comes down to it, only the genuinely epic Huawei-level battery life salvages the iPhone 11 Pro Max from being a three-star product, and even then this is a four-star phone that is extremely expensive.
There are certainly better, easier-to-use big-screen smartphones available that cost significantly less than the jaw-dropping £1,149 and up Apple wants for the iPhone 11 Pro Max.
But if you must have an iPhone and the wonderful 5.8in iPhone 11 Pro doesn’t quite cut it, do yourself a favour and save £420 and buy the 6.1in iPhone 11. Only those that genuinely need two-day battery life should buy the iPhone 11 Pro Max, and even then I wouldn’t.
Pros: brilliant camera, night mode, water resistant, wireless charging, Face ID, good battery life, good performance, brilliant screen, long software support
Cons: hard to hold, heavy, super expensive, no headphone socket, no fingerprint scanner, no headphones adapter in the box, low starting storage

Mark Zuckerberg rules out selling Instagram and WhatsApp



Mark Zuckerberg rules out selling Instagram and WhatsApp


Facebook has repeatedly been confronted by calls, including from one of its own co-founders, to split Instagram and WhatsApp off from the social network. But it seems the chances of that happening keep getting slimmer.

US Sen. Josh Hawley, a Missouri Republican, said Thursday in a tweet that he met with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and asked the tech mogul to sell Instagram and WhatsApp. Not surprisingly, Zuckerberg shot down the idea.

Hawley, one of Facebooks toughest critics, is among the several US lawmakers from both parties whove been rubbing shoulders with Zuckerberg this week.

Its Zuckerbergs first known visit to Washington, DC, since April 2018 when he testified before lawmakers in the wake of a major privacy scandal. Cambridge Analytica, a UK political consultancy, harvested the data of up to 87 million Facebook users without their permission. In June, Hawley introduced a bill that would make tech companies like Facebook liable for political bias.

Facebook has repeatedly said it doesnt plan to split Instagram and WhatsApp away from the worlds largest social network. The company has argued that doing so wouldnt hold it more accountable for its privacy mishaps and other woes. Instead, Zuckerberg has called for more internet regulation around harmful content, election integrity, privacy and data portability. The company is also working on a way to make it possible for Messenger, WhatsApp and Instagram users to send messages to one another without switching apps.

Facebook didnt immediately have a comment about Hawleys meeting with Zuckerberg.

On Wednesday night, Zuckerberg met with a group of senators as part of a dinner that Sen. Mark Warner, a Virginia Democrat, helped organized after he was asked by Facebook to do so.
"The participants had a discussion touching on multiple issues, including the role and responsibility of social media platforms in protecting our democracy, and what steps Congress should take to defend our elections, protect consumer data and encourage competition in the social media space," Rachel Cohen, a spokeswoman for Warner, said in a statement.
Warner also told The Washington Post that Zuckerberg was questioned about the companys plans to launch with partners a new cryptocurrency called Libra. "He heard the concerns, but I still dont have 100 percent clarity on whether they feel like they can launch short of US regulatory approval," Warner told the Post.
Zuckerberg also spoke with Sen. Maria Cantwell, a Democrat representing the state of Washington, during a separate meeting on Wednesday night focused on data privacy and election security, Reid Walker, a spokesman for Cantwell, said in a statement.
Zuckerbergs conversation with lawmakers included a wide range of topics, including allegations that the social network suppresses conservative speech, which Facebook has repeatedly denied doing. Hawley said in a tweet that Zuckerberg admitted there "clearly was bias" surrounding a fact-checking dispute between the social network and videos published by anti-abortion group Live Action. 
Conn Carroll, a spokesman for Sen. Mike Lee, Utah Republican, said Zuckerberg met with the lawmaker and talked about "bias against conservatives on Facebooks platform, government regulation of digital platforms, antitrust enforcement, Section 230 liability, and data-privacy issues."
