GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • In late September, the U.S. Department of Labor announced that if the interim rule is adopted, the H-2A rate will drop by about $1.80 an hour in Idaho, $2.10 in Oregon and nearly $2.50 in Washington.

HEALTH NEWS

  • A Northwestern Medicine study found that almost two-thirds of lung cancer patients would not have been eligible for CT chest scans under current guidelines that focus on heavy smokers — the researchers suggest universal screening for people aged 40 to 85 to catch lung issues sooner.  FOX 41 Yakima
  • Officials announced that Twin Sisters Creamery recalled four raw milk cheeses—Whatcom Blue, Farmhouse, Peppercorn and Mustard Seed—after tests found E. coli that sickened three people in Oregon and Washington.

  • A study found that older adults who eat meals alone have poorer nutrition—showing less intake of fruits, vegetables, and protein and an increased risk of weight loss and frailty.
