A few other brands have followed suit since then, but none have been quite as exciting as the new iPhone SE. Now it truly seems like flagship inclusions at lower price points are here to stay - and it's about damn time. The trend of $1,500 - $2,000 becoming the norm for new phones over the last few years has been bad for buyers. A new middle ground has been long overdue and we welcome it. But is the resurrected iPhone SE actually a good phone to buy in 2020? It's worth noting that I have only been playing with the iPhone SE for a day and a half, so these are my first impressions. Keep your eyes peeled for the full review next week. iPhone SE Specs But before we dive into things, here's a quick reminder of the specs. Display: 4.7 inches (1334 x 750) CPU: A13 Bionic Chip Storage: 64GB, 128GB, 256GB Battery: Up to 13 hours video playback, Qi wireless charging, fast charge Rear camera: 12MP (f/1.8) Front camera: 7MP (f/2.2) Video recording: 4K video up to 60 fps Water resistance: IP67 Size: 5.45 x 2.65 x 0.29 inches Weight: 148g Colour: Black, White, PROJECT(RED) iPhone SE Price In Australia In Australia the iPhone SE starts at $749 for the 64GB. 12GB will bring the price up to $829 and 256GB comes in at $999. You can grab one from the Apple Store now. If you'd prefer a plan, we have all of them compiled in one handy place for you. What's good about the iPhone SE? The iPhone SE is such a good size for smaller hands. Image: Tegan Jones/Gizmodo Australia iPhone SE Size In a world where 6.5-inch phones have become par for the course, it's refreshing for a premium phone manufacturer to offer something a bit smaller. While large phones screens are good for some things – streaming shows, reading, general browsing – they can also be incredibly uncomfortable. While I have gotten used to the iPhone 11 Pro Max, I have found the SE far more comfortable to use as a daily driver. The screen size isn't too small, the device nestles perfectly into my hand and it can actually fit into my lady pockets. A true miracle in 2020. And from a tactile perspective, it's the same as flagship phone – you won't find cheap plastic here. The material is lovely to touch and feels exactly the same as my 11 Pro Max, just smaller. While it isn't as small as the previous SE or some other older iPhones, I think that anyone upgrading from one of those previous generations will still be pleased – especially if you compare it to something like the Pro or Pro Max. iPhone SE Camera I'll have a far more in-depth dive into the iPhone SE camera in my full review, but I have a few initial thoughts. It's important to set your expectations if you're coming to the SE from a flagship device. It only has a single lens on the front and back, so it simply can't have the same functionality as a triple or quad camera array. That being said, it still pretty darn good so far, and this is primarily due to the processor. The iPhone SE has the same A13 bionic chip as iPhone 11 devices, which is a crazy move that I'm here for. The signal processor and N=neural engine in the A13 boosts the computational photography of the iPhone SE, which helps make up for what it lacks in hardware. But what does that actually mean when it comes to real world functionality? To put it simply, the single camera lenses are more capable thanks to the processor and software. The SE has Smart HDR, optical image stabilisation, subject recognition and the ability to capture clearer faces. It's also able to offer the same six lighting affects in portrait mode as the iPhone 11, as well as depth control adjustment you usually need a second lens for. When it comes to video, the rear camera is still able to capture 4K and 30 fps with cinematic stabilisation. As for the selfie cam, you still get the lovely bokeh effect – the soft, out-of-focus background in photos – of pricier iPhones thanks to the inclusion of monocular depth estimation. So far I have mostly messed around with the portrait and regular photo modes - and they really do a great job for single lenses. Sure, they're not as good as the iPhone 11 Pro Max, but at a price point of $750 - $1000 that was never going to happen. Here are a few comparisons between the iPhone SE and iPhone 11 Pro Max: iPhone SE Regular Photo Mode There's a noticeable different between the iPhone SE (left) and iPhone 11 Pro Max (right) in terms of brightness, sharpness and warmth. However, some of this could be brought back into the final product with some editing. iPhone SE Portrait Mode Left: iPhone SE, Right: iPhone 11 Pro Max iPhone SE Low Light Camera The iPhone SE (left) doesn't have a dedicated night mode like the iPhone 11 Pro Max (right) but it's low-light capabilities seem quite decent so far. iPhone SE Selfies Left: iPhone SE, Right: iPhone 11 Pro Max If you want to best camera phone on the market, the iPhone SE is not what you should opt for. But so far, I'm quite impressed and I'm looking forward to putting it through its paces more. What's not so good about the iPhone SE? Image: Tegan Jones/Gizmodo Australia iPhone SE Battery Life Unlike Android manufacturers, Apple doesn't reveal its battery sizes - but we do know that it's smaller than any device in the iPhone 11 lineup. For example, Apple quotes the SE as having up to 13 hours of video playback, where as the baseline iPhone 11 has up to 17. It didn't take long for me to notice the battery drain, particularly when I went out for a walk. In 30 minutes, the battery dropped by 13 per cent while I had my AirPods Pro connected via bluetooth, location enabled and Spotify playing. During that time I also sent some messages via Facebook Messenger and Slack. I went on a similar walk the next day and lost 10 per cent battery in 20 minutes - this time around I had added some light browsing into the mix. That being said, the battery still go me through the whole day. I started using the device at 7:30am and by 11:30pm it was down to 3 per cent. As a moderate to heavy user, this was okay. However, if Australia wasn't in lockdown right now I would probably have run out of battery earlier due to heavier music listening and reading on my morning commute, as well as connecting my Apple watch for gym workouts and taking the phone out after work. If the world was normal right now, I would definitely need to be put the SE on a charger during the day. Apple's iPhone SE: Every Phone Plan In Australia Apple mic-dropped the mobile world last week by unveiling a brand new iPhone SE for just $749. Not only that, even the most expensive version of the mid-range phone still comes in at under $1000. The phone is on sale today, and every major Aussie telco is on board with this little beauty. Because opening 500 tabs to compare phone plans sucks, we have rounded up all of them for you. You're welcome. Read more But despite my battery complaints, it's important to take my own experience and background into account. I review phones for a living and use an iPhone 11 Pro Max regularly. And in recent weeks, I've been playing around with the Samsung S20 Ultra and Huawei P40. These are flagship phones with huge batteries. My prediction is that people most likely to buy an iPhone SE will be upgrading from an older Apple device, such as an iPhone 6, 7 or 8. Alternatively, they're low to moderate phone users who simply want a cheaper device without having to make a lot of compromises. If these scenarios sound like you, the battery life on the iPhone SE will be just fine. You'll probably find that it's on par with the iPhone 8 and still larger than anything older than that – especially when you take battery degradation into account. Plus, the iPhone SE charges incredibly quickly thanks to 30W fast-charge capabilities, combined with the smaller battery. I even found that the wireless charging on it was quite speedy. If you want a more robust battery, you should consider upgrading to an iPhone 11 or 11 Pro instead. But if you don't mind something a bit smaller, the iPhone SE could be likely be perfect for you. iPhone SE Bezel While this isn't a problem for me, this will probably bug some people. So let's talk about it. The 4.7-inch display has quite a thick bezel at the top and bottom of the device to house the home button and front-facing camera. This makes sense because it would cost a lot more to include an in-screen fingerprint reader and camera. However, some folks may not like how this throwback inclusion eats into the screen real estate, especially if they enjoy streaming content on their phones. While it's not my favourite feature, the bezels really don't bother me that much and after a few days of use I don't really miss Face Unlock. I also found watching Netflix and Quibi on the SE great. The smaller screen didn't bother me and the brightness and quality of the display was lovely. However, if you're a fan of having as much screen as possible, it's probably worth considering one of the Phone 11 models instead. Is the iPhone SE Worth It? Image: Tegan Jones/Gizmodo Australia I've only had the iPhone SE in my hot little hands for a couple of days, so I'll hold my hard stance recommendations until my full review. That being said, this is a great device for the price point – even if you are still paying a premium because it's Apple. While it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the more expensive iPhones, there's more than enough of them to be perfect for some people. At the same time, it still offers some flagship features you usually have to pay more for, so it's future proofed for a few years. Qi wireless charging, eSIM functionality and water resistance are all fantastic inclusions – but the real game changer here is the A13 bionic chip. Being able to get the best phone processor on the market in a sub-$1000 phone is a real power move by Apple, and one that will probably pay off for them. The iPhone SE is as modern as it is thoughtful. It provides an option for people on a tighter budget or who don't want to stretch their fingers across the mammoth phone screens that have become the norm over the last few years.

Gilead said the document contained “inappropriate characterizations” and that the study’s findings were “inconclusive.” AP: Gilead Sciences 150709 In this July 9, 2015, file photo, a man walks outside the headquarters of Gilead Sciences in Foster City, Calif. Eric Risberg | AP Gilead Sciences said that a draft document showing disappointing results from a closely watched clinical trial of the company’s treatment for the coronavirus contained “inappropriate characterizations” and that the study’s findings were “inconclusive.” Shares of the biotech firm fell 4% in intraday trading Thursday after the Financial Times reported that antiviral drug remdesivir did not improve Covid-19 patients’ conditions or reduce the virus’ presence in the bloodstream in a clinical trial in China. The report, citing a draft document that was accidentally published by the World Health Organization and has since been removed, also said the drug showed significant side effects, and some patients were taken off of it. “We regret that the WHO prematurely posted information regarding the study, which has since been removed. The investigators in this study did not provide permission for publication of results,” a Gilead spokesperson said in a statement to CNBC. “Furthermore, we believe the post included inappropriate characterizations of the study. Importantly, because this study was terminated early due to low enrollment, it was underpowered to enable statistically meaningful conclusions,” according to Gilead. “As such, the study results are inconclusive, though trends in the data suggest a potential benefit for remdesivir, particularly among patients treated early in disease.” VIDEO00:30 Gilead halted after report Remdesivir flopped in coronavirus trial There are no proven therapies to treat Covid-19, which has infected more than 2.6 million worldwide and killed at least 183,820 as of Thursday, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. U.S. health officials say producing a vaccine to prevent Covid-19 will take at least 12 to 18 months, making finding an effective drug treatment soon even more crucial. There a number of ongoing studies testing Gilead’s remdesivir to see if it’s effective in stopping the coronavirus from replicating. Last week, Gilead surged after details leaked of one of its clinical trials, showing what appeared to be promising results in treating the disease. The University of Chicago found that patients with Covid-19 had “rapid recoveries in fever and respiratory symptoms” and were discharged in less than a week, according to STAT News. The recent swings in Gilead shares over the past week show just how difficult it is to bet on developments for treatments for the coronavirus. Mike Bailey, director of research at FBB Capital Partners and a former health-care analyst at Stifel, told CNBC last week that retail investors are “hungry” for good news on the virus. Those investors could be taking that and channeling it into buying shares, he said. “You could argue [Gilead] buyers are hungry for good news while Moderna buyers are starving for it,” said Mike Bailey, referring to Moderna’s coronavirus vaccine currently in human trials. Remdesivir has shown some promise in treating SARS and MERS, which are also caused by coronaviruses. Some health authorities in the U.S., China and other parts of the world have also been using remdesivir, which was tested as a possible treatment for the Ebola outbreak, in hopes that the drug can reduce the duration of Covid-19 in patients. Results from a Gilead clinical trial involving patients with severe cases of the virus are expected later this month, while data on a trial testing patients with moderate symptoms is expected in May. Infectious disease experts and analysts caution the severe study is “single-arm,” meaning it will not evaluate the drug against a group of patients who didn’t receive the drug.

(BSGM)|By: Douglas W. House, SA News Editor BioSig Technologies (BSGM +10%) is up out the gate on the heels of results from laboratory studies comparing the antiviral activity of subsidiary ViralClear's merimepodib to Gilead Sciences' (GILD +2.2%) remdesivir. Cell cultures were pretreated with two concentrations of either merimepodib or remdesivir for four hours before SARS-CoV-2 virus was added. At hour 16, both concentrations of the former and the higher concentration of the latter significantly reduced viral production. At hour 24, both concentrations of both drugs significantly reduced viral production. Additional studies are underway. ViralClear intends to launch clinical trials in COVID-19 next quarter (assuming FDA sign-off). Merimepodib is a broad-spectrum antiviral that Vertex Pharmaceuticals (VRTX +1.5%) was originally developing for hepatitis C and psoriasis.

Westport, CT, April 23, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Merimepodib is shown to decrease viral production of COVID-19 coronavirus more than remdesivir at clinically meaningful drug concentrations in pre-clinical testing. Article highlights recent work done in laboratory studies of COVID-19 with merimepodib at the Galveston National Laboratory at The University of Texas Medical Branch BioSig Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BSGM) today announced that an article titled, “The IMPDH inhibitor merimepodib has similar antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro to the adenosine analogue remdesivir” was accepted by F1000 Research, an online peer-reviewed life sciences journal publishing program in biology and medicine. This manuscript is authored by Natalya Bukreyeva, Rachel A. Sattler, Emily K. Mantlo, John T. Manning, Cheng Huang and Slobodan Paessler of the UTMB Galveston National Laboratory and Dr. Jerome Zeldis of ViralClear Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“ViralClear”) as a corresponding author. The article highlights emerging pre-clinical data generated under contract with Galveston National Laboratory at The University of Texas Medical Branch. The work was started with Trek Therapeutics and after merimepodib was acquired by ViralClear has been continued by ViralClear. “The concentrations of merimepodib used in the cell culture studies described in this article are achievable in humans by our oral solution formulation,” said Dr. Zeldis, Executive Chair and Founder of ViralClear Pharmaceuticals, Inc. “We are now exploring whether remdesivir and merimepodib are synergistic in this in vitro model. We look forward to starting our first clinical trial in COVID-19 patients upon receiving FDA clearance to commence with the proposed phase 2 trial.” Vero cells in tissue culture were pre-treated with two concentrations (2.5 and 5 µM) of either merimepodib or remdesivir for 4 hours before the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus was added. The amount of virus released to the media was measured at baseline and 16 hours and 24 hours after infection. At 16 hours, a significant reduction in viral production was observed for both concentrations of merimepodib (1.9 log decrease in titer, p = 0.003 and 2.1 log decrease in titer, p = 0.001) but only at the higher concentration of remdesivir (1 log decrease in titer, p = 0.103 and 2.1-log decrease in titer, p = 0.001). At 24 hours both concentrations of both drugs significantly reduced viral production; however, 2.5 µM remdesivir reduced viral titer by 1.5 logs (p = 0.002) as compared to a decrease of 3.9 logs for 5 µM remdesivir (p < 0.001), whereas 2.5 and 2.7 log reductions (p = 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively) were observed for the 2.5 and 5 µM concentrations of merimepodib. Merimepodib, a broad-spectrum anti-viral candidate, demonstrated strong activity against COVID-19 in cell cultures in laboratory testing and additional antiviral studies are underway. Merimepodib was previously in development as a treatment for chronic hepatitis C and psoriasis by Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (Vertex), with a 12 clinical trials conducted (including 315 chronic hepatitis C patients, 24 psoriasis patients, and 98 healthy volunteers) and an extensive preclinical safety package completed . ViralClear intends to pursue development of this agent for the treatment of COVID-19 through FDA-approved clinical trials in Q2 2020.

People with hypertension, diabetes and kidney disease are also at high risk. So said Dr Neil Bhagwandass, nephrologist at San Fernando Hospital, at the Wednesday's covid19 update at the Ministry of Health headquarters on Park Street in Port of Spain. He listed the categories of people especially susceptible to the disease, which also included people who have suffered strokes or who have had lung diseases.

Speaking at Thursday’s media briefing to update the public on COVID-19 measures, Health Minister Terrence Deyalsingh said 341,000 people were diagnosed with hypertension, according to Ministry statistics – 23.6 percent of the population. He added that 266,000 (20.5 percent) of the population suffer from diabetes, saying that the figure is probably an underestimation as many people may not be aware they have diabetes. Dr Neal Bhagwandass, Nephrologist and Acting Head of Department, Medicine, at the San Fernando General Hospital, said it is critical that dialysis patients do not contract or spread the virus when receiving treatment. He said there are approximately 1,400 patients receiving hemodialysis treatments through the public health care system. "A typical dialysis would have 20-30 patients dialysing at one time. Our nephrologists have instituted policies so that patients are not allowed to congregate. Patients should be kept at least six feet apart and as soon as the dialysis procedure is finished they are to leave the environment." He said dialysis patients are screened on entering and are asked about any flu-like systems. "If we have to swab, swab them because this is a very high-risk population...we do not want COVID-19 to spread among our dialysis population, that could be a disaster." Dr Bhagwandass said those patients can experience kidney failure if they were to contract the virus. Dr Bhagwandass said diabetic patients should not work if they are feeling unwell. “Any stress on a diabetic patient would predispose you to your diabetes going out of control. These people should practice ‘sick day’ guidelines. If you become unwell, you develop…flu-like symptoms, your blood sugar would spike. “The rule is not to stop your diabetic medicine…get in contact with your health professionals for further advice.” Also concerning is the fact that young people who tested positive for the virus in other countries have been seen to develop abnormal clotting due to the virus. “Even young people who do not manifest these (diseases), are being diagnosed with strokes, cardiovascular accidents, because of increased clotting that occurs when one develops a COVID-19 infection.” People with the following conditions are at higher risk of severe COVID-19 complications: - Asthmatics - Chronic lung disease - Diabetes - Serious heart conditions - Chronic kidney disease/Dialysis - Severe obesity - Elderly (65 years and older) - Carehome residents - Immunocompromised - Liver disease Deyalsingh said the Ministry has implemented several measures to reduce the prevalence of non-communicable diseases including the banning of soft drinks at public schools, which he said has reduced soft drink consumption among children by 25 percent. He added that over the past year there was a drop in visits to the Accident and Emergency departments by 1.5 to two percent for people with hypertension and diabetes.

This lies at the heart of an industry-leading, battery-powered wireless pulse oximeter, the Radius PPG, that was launched last year by Masimo and is now set to join the front-line battle against COVID-19 as part of that company's SafetyNet solution. As the Radius PPG is created to enable tetherless monitoring, it can be used as part of the SafetyNet platform to remotely manage COVID-19 patients at home and conceivably assist hospitals from being overwhelmed by less severe cases. "We didn't originally develop Radius PPG to combat COVID-19," says Bilal Muhsin, chief operating officer, Masimo. "We first and foremost developed it so it could monitor hospital patients accurately, even when the patient is moving, without the inconvenience of a wired connection to a monitor. But it turns out that in the current COVID-19 crisis this tetherless capability, when paired with a secure, cloud-based telehealth platform accessible from a smartphone for patients and from a web-based dashboard for providers, can provide a valuable way to manage COVID-19 patients who do not require hospitalisation. And continue to check them from their homes, allowing hospital beds to be freed up for those who need it. Masimo SafetyNet uses the same Radius PPG tetherless pulse oximeter designed for use in the hospital to provide a remote patient management solution small enough to be worn comfortably and simple enough to be set-up quickly on the patient's smartphone." "Our hearts go out to the brave front line medical and hospital personnel doing their absolute best to cope with the often overwhelming numbers of COVID-19 patients coming through their doors in COVID-19 hotspots around the world," concludes Geir Langeland, Nordic Semiconductor director of sales and marketing. Nordic's latest multiprotocol SoC is its most advanced ultra low power wireless solution. The SoC supports complex Bluetooth LE and other wireless applications that were previously not possible with a single-chip solution.
