Zelensky Receives Standing Ovation
From EU Parliament in Emotional Scenes

This a day after Zelensky asked the EU to admit Ukraine into the bloc

[I am] extremely happy with what I have seen here and I am happy that we have united all of you, but I didn't want this unity at this price. Thousands of people killed, two revolutions, one war, and five days of full-scale invasion by the Russian Federation.

This he said among the crowd, some lawmakers with #standwithUkraine T-shirts.  But during his speech, he condemned Russian President Vladimir Putin who has bombed civilian infrastructure and residential areas, all while stating they are not being targeted.

We welcome Mr. President, Ukraine's application for candidate status, and we will work towards that goal because we will and we must face the future together.

And so, the process of becoming a member within the European Union has begun.

  Note that Russia has now used a vacuum air bomb, the largest non-nuclear weapon in their inventory, a weapon that has been banned and increases the number of war atrocities ordered by Putin.

First woman cured of HIV
thanks to stem cells from newborns

The “past middle-aged” woman, who chose not to be identified in the interest of privacy, was among the first to receive a novel transplant method using umbilical cord blood, fortified with a mutation that blocks HIV from entering her cells. She also received partially matched blood stem cells from a first-degree relative — a parent, offspring or sibling — while the cord blood treatment worked its way through her rejiggered immune system.

Now, just 14 months after her transplant, her blood shows no trace of the virus. The successful therapy also led to remission from leukemia that she developed in March 2017 due to HIV infection.
