Health officials have dismissed calls for this summers Rio Olympics to be postponed or moved over the Zika crisis. Cheap Air Max 95 Wholesale . With just 10 weeks before the Games are due to begin, 152 leading scientists have written an open letter to the World Health Organisation (WHO) saying new findings about the virus make staging the event in the city irresponsible and unethical.But the WHO rejected the warning, insisting that shifting the Olympics would not significantly alter the spread of the virus. It said in a statement: Based on current assessment, cancelling or changing the location of the 2016 Olympics will not significantly alter the international spread of Zika virus. Brazil is one of almost 60 countries and territories which to-date report continuing transmission of Zika by mosquitoes. People continue to travel between these countries and territories for a variety of reasons. Over 100 scientists says Rio Olympics should be postponed The best way to reduce risk of disease is to follow public health travel advice. One of the letters signatories, Professor Arthur Caplan, told Sky News a postponement of three to six months would have allowed time for a vaccine to be created.He added: What we are learning about Zika is that the strain not only causes birth defects but also has this neurological explosion impact on children. Its more serious than we thought.We are also starting to understand that it can cause paralysis, rarely but it can do it, in adults, and we dont yet know how long it lingers in a person. Brazil faces new health epidemic as mosquito-borne Zika virus spreads rapidly To top it all off Brazil has been undergoing economic and political troubles and its not clear that theyre going to be able to do whats necessary to protect both athletes and visitors.Zika can cause microcephaly in which babies are born with unusually small heads and brains.It has also been linked to Guillain-Barre syndrome and Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis which affect the nervous system.Nearly 1,300 babies have been born in Brazil with microcephaly since the mosquito-borne Zika began circulating there last year.The letter said the Games should be moved or delayed in the name of public health after infections in Rio rose despite increased efforts to wipe out the mosquitoes. Signatories were from more than two dozen countries and include former White House science adviser Dr Philip Rubin.The WHO has already advised pregnant women not to go to Rio and says travellers should avoid poor and overcrowded parts of the city.The UN agency also predicts the Zika risk will drop in August, with the South American winter resulting in fewer mosquitoes.No Olympic Games has ever been moved from its host city due to medical concerns.A dissenting voice in the scientific community is Dr Tom Frieden, director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.He said: There is no public health reason to cancel or delay the Olympics.The risk to delegations going and athletes is not zero, but the risk of any travel isnt zero. The risk is not particularly high other than for pregnant women. Also See: Move Games or stop it Farah wins in Oregon 23 fail London retests Xena: Pool princess Cheap Nike Air Max 95 White .

The Canadian Football Leagues all-time passing leader said he has not made a final decision, but he will discuss his future with Montreal Alouettes owner Bob Wetenhall on the weekend. http://www.wholesaleairmax95cheap.com/cheap-nike-air-max-95-pink/ .C. -- Marcus Paige and his North Carolina teammates have endured so many wild swings -- big wins, surprising losses, NCAA drama -- that no one can blame their Hall of Fame coach for wondering whats next.MONTREAL -- Rookie Martin Jones is already making a little Kings history. In Los Angeless 6-0 thumping of the Canadiens on Tuesday night, Jones became the first Kings goaltender to ever record a shutout against Montreal. And he did it in just his third career NHL game. Jones is now 3-0 with a 0.65 goals-against-average and a .973 save percentage. The shutout was also his second in as many nights. "Maybe I didnt expect to get that kind of start, but I dont want to stop here," said Jones. "I want to make sure I keep working. We have a lot of work ahead of us. Were playing some good teams." The 23-year-old from North Vancouver, B.C., earned his first win in his NHL debut last Tuesday, beating the Anaheim Ducks after a nine-round shootout. He followed up by making 16 saves to blank the New York Islanders on Saturday. "Its been nice to get wins in different ways," said Jones. "Thats the sign of a good team, we get wins in different situations." Jones got the start in Montreal in place of Ben Scrivens, who leads the league in save percentage. And Scrivens is normally backup goaltender to Jonathan Quick, whos out with a groin injury. With Quick expected back in a couple of weeks, Jones performance could force head coach Darryl Sutter to make a tough decision down the road. "Whenever Im called upon, theyre going to get my best," said Jones. They got his best on Tuesday at the Bell Centre, where Jones stopped all 30 shots he faced, including a seven-shot opening game flurry with the Canadiens on the power play. "If Jones wasnt making the saves he was making, it could have been a completely different ball game right off the start," said Anze Kopitar, who rewarded his netminder with a goal late in the first period, his ninth of the year. "He came up big for us. That game could have gone the complete opposite way." L.A.s (20-7-4) victory extended its winning streak to four games, snapping Montreals 10-game point streak in the process. The Canadiens (19-10-3) hadnt lost in regulation since Nov. 16, when they were beaten 1-0 by the New York Rangers. They came into Tuesdays game on an 11-1-2 run in which they hadnt conceded more than three goals in a game. But they conceded six on the Kings 30 shots. Carey Price, whose save percentage dipped to . Cheap Nike Air Max 95 Black. 934 after the game, made 12 saves on 16 shots and was pulled midway through the second frame. His replacement Peter Budaj didnt fare much better, allowing two goals on 14 shots. "These games are miserable," said Canadiens defenceman Josh Gorges. "The only thing you can do is get out of this room here, take a look in the mirror, and ask yourself, Did I do what I was supposed to do tonight? Theres not one guy in this room that can say that he did. "We have to understand that this is how hard it is in this league. We have to use it as motivation going forward." The Canadiens came out of the gate with intense pressure, but couldnt find an answer to Joness stellar play. Jordan Nolan opened the scoring for Los Angeles at 7:03 of the first period, jumping on a big rebound after a Willie Mitchell shot from the blue-line bounced off of Prices pads and landed on Nolans stick. Kopitar added to the lead with only 13 seconds remaining in the period, catching Price out of position after winning the faceoff to his right. "We had a quick huddle just before the faceoff," said Kopitar. "We didnt draw it up quite as good as we executed, but well take it. "That was obviously a big momentum changer." The Kings opened the second period ready to build on that momentum. Alec Martinez scored early in the period after Montreal defender Alexei Emelin lost the puck in his skates in front of the net. Tyler Toffoli put the Kings ahead 4-0 at 5:28, firing home a big rebound past a sprawling Price, who was pulled after the goal. Jake Muzzin added to the lead on the power play at 8:14, and Justin Williams made it 6-0 with his team-leading 11th goal at 18:28. Jones was thankful his team did what they could to preserve his shutout bid late in the game. "The guys didnt stop playing even though we had that six-goal lead," said Jones. "Guys continued to block shots and get in lanes, and take away sticks in front of the net." Notes: L.A. hadnt beaten the Canadiens in seven encounters dating back to March 2003. The Kings last win in Montreal was in 1999. a Francis Bouillon was back in the lineup after missing six of the last 10 games as a healthy scratch. Bouillon got the nod in place of Douglas Murray.
