welcome to CNN ten on this Friday March 30th my name is Carl azuz we're happy to
see you the first time in almost six years Malala yousufzai has returned to
her home country of Pakistan the twenty-year-old winner of the Nobel
Peace Prize is known around the world as Malala she spent most of her life
advocating for girls rights to an education but that's something that the
Taliban a terrorist group that operates in Afghanistan and Pakistan has tried to
prevent they attempted to assassinate Malala in 2012 but she survived the
shooting and afterwards she continued her own education as well as her fight
for children's rights worldwide there was a lot of security which she visited
Pakistan early Thursday some people there see her as a hero others see her
as an agitator who should be silenced but her visit defied Taliban threats to
attack her again and fulfilled her dream of touching the ground of home there
been a whirlwind of changes on and around the Korean Peninsula since the
lines of communication between North and South Korea opened back up before the
Olympics April 27th is the date when North Korean leader Kim jong-un and
South Korean president moon jae-in are scheduled to meet at the Demilitarized
Zone the border between their Nations it'll be the first face-to-face meeting
between Korean leaders in more than a decade and it follows this week's
surprise visit by North Korea's dictator to China
that's a nation whose relationship with North Korea has been significant if not
always harmonious it used to be said that the relationship between China and
North Korea was as close as lips and teeth China has always been
North Korea's staunchest Ally since kim jong un's grandfather kim il-sung
established the totalitarian state back in 1948 it has provided economic life
support ideological backing and support for North Korea on the international
stage in return communist North Korea has served Beijing
as a buffer between China and South Korea saving China from the prospect of
US troops on its land border but the relationship has been fraying since Kim
jong-un assumed power in 2011 he has repeated
angered Beijing with nuclear bomb and ballistic missile tests that led to a
dangerous potentially military confrontation with the United States
Beijing's calls for restraint and dialogue were largely ignored by Kim
indeed some of North Korea's tests looked like they were deliberately
provocative to Beijing but the recent frosty relations are starting to thaw
diplomacy is now front and center on the Korean Peninsula the isolated Kim needs
the support of Beijing and reportedly says he's ready to put denuclearization
on the table his country has been hit hard by international sanctions and with
more than 90 percent of North Koreans foreign trade including its lifeblood
oil going through China Kim needs their backing for China it wants to assert its
role in any future negotiations on the Korean Peninsula
Beijing's bottom line remains the nuclearization but it also wants to see
Kim's regime stay intact the alternative is unthinkable a collapsed North Korea
with millions of refugees flooding into the country or a reunified Korea with US
influence stretching right up to its border there's too much at stake for
either side to walk away from each other
second trip in what year was an estimated one-third of the global
population infected by a severe flu virus 1918 1937 1968 or 2009 the flu
pandemic of 1918 also known as the Spanish flu in fact had an estimated 500
million people worldwide it was the worst in recent history
far as this year's flu virus goes the US Centers for Disease Control is warning
that a second wave may be on the way what sickened so many people this winter
making it the worst season for flu outbreaks in years was caused by a type
of flu called influenza A officials believe those outbreaks have peaked and
are now decreasing but they're warning about another type of the flu called
influenza B at this time those viruses are more frequently being reported in
America it's possible to get one flu after you already had the other this
year's vaccine was mostly ineffective against influenza A experts think it
might be more effective against influenza B with or without it most
people do not die from the flu but there are some groups that face higher risks
it's always scary when you hear of someone dying from something as common
as the flu there are four main ways the flu can turn deadly the first and most
common cause is pneumonia the influenza virus can directly cause viral pneumonia
once someone has the flu it can weaken their immune system so much that another
virus or bacteria can enter the lungs infected lungs fill with fluid making it
difficult to breathe so oxygen can't get to the rest of the body which can lead
to death sepsis is the second way the flu can become lethal especially in
healthy younger adults and children sepsis occurs when a person's immune
system goes into overdrive trying to fight the flu this causes inflammation
which can lead to a cascade of symptoms that ultimately ends in organ failure a
third way the flu can kill is by increasing your risk of heart attack
experts say in adults risk of heart attack increases six-fold in the seven
days following a flu diagnosis the fourth way the flu can kill is by
dehydration particularly among infants and young children the flu often causes
vomiting and diarrhea which can quickly become life-threatening if fluids aren't
replaced in the body so if you get the flu when should you be worried some
people have a higher risk for serious complications from the flu including the
elderly children under the age of five pregnant women and those with chronic
health problems if this is you make sure you see a doctor if you're a healthy
older child or adult watch out for sudden dizziness
severe persistent vomiting difficulty breathing pain or pressure in the chest
or abdomen and flu-like symptoms that improve them return with a fever or were
scoff its major league baseball season in America opening day was yesterday 26
teams went head-to-head in the first of the 162 games they'll play throughout
the summer and while they're focused on fields with diamonds today's positive
athlete is focused on one with goal posts when Kendall breast was diagnosed
with a heart disorder he and his coach who's also his dad found another way
Kendall could stay in the game we had a home game here on a Friday night and
Kendall you know was getting ready for school I stood up and I stretched and
got really dizzy I started falling over and got nothing on one side the body my
speech was all slurred and I had no clue what's going on I took him for a cat
scan at the local hospital and we literally walked back into the school
and my cell phone rang and they said you need to bring him back to the ER because
he had a stroke we were in shock we are in disbelief they diagnosed me with LVN
C which stands for left ventricular and on compassion they just in the end ruled
out playing physical contact sports because taking a hit to the chest could
result in bad things the conversation basically revolved around your playing
days are over there's something ahead that will be bigger and better and you
don't even know what that is right now we were so close to our doctors down in
Pittsburgh and we decided we want to give back for so much they did for us so
we decided there's a camp for kids to have heart ailments like I do and we
decided to give back and the inspiration was having the hashtag Kendall strong
game honestly in my heart I thought I want to raise $1,000 but secretly I was
hoping for 5,000 never believed it would be 10,000 we get that make sure it
halftime we talk to the center's principals below Kendall got into
coaching because he wanted to be a part of the program was just the number one
thing I knew I could do because I already knew
things about coaching football Jake Jake get ready you ready to junior year
that was the longest season of my life and when the greatest thrills was as a
dad after winning a championship his junior year was talked of him I just
felt like such a special season and setbacks and a great story and just we
just gave each other a big hug afterwards and he said we did it dad no
never forget that aurora borealis the Northern Lights get a lot of coverage in
the media but how about Aurora Australis just as beautiful just as incredible to
see just in another hemisphere these pictures come to us from a photographer
named Brad Phipps he was one of the passengers who flew from New Zealand to
the Antarctic Circle where he was able to capture the Southern Lights from his
airplane window and then put together this time-lapse video so if you thought
the Northern Lights were the only game in town Australis and up the green glow
over the Antarctic is every bit as Aurora Bowl sure some might make light
of it or say it's not Bora reality the same but scientifically speaking the
only difference between them is their potent I'm Carl azuz hope you have a
great Easter weekend and we'll look forward to seeing you again on Monday
you
