The illness primarily fluctuates the ability of the respiratory system and causes fevers, but can also resemble symptoms of the common flu. In mid-January, a Washington man caught symptoms of the virus while travelling to the city of Wuhan in China, making the United States the first country outside of Asia to be contaminated. As of Jan. 27, there are five confirmed cases of the virus in California, Arizona, Chicago and Washington State. Scientists and health officials have stated that the virus was first generated in a fish market and can be transmitted through human contact. BREXIT As of Jan. 31, the United Kingdom has departed from the European Union. This decision was originally formulated by former Prime Minister Theresa May in June of 2016, but all three of her proposals were rejected by parliament. Prime Minister Boris Johnson continued with the UK’s withdrawal and his contract was passed on Jan. 31, formly ending the UK’s involvement with the EU. The first eleven months will be a transition period for the United Kingdom, forcing them to comply with the EU’s rules. During this period, the EU and Britain will have to decide how to dispute trade relations as well as security cooperation. If the eleven month period proves to be too short, Johnson will have to either prolong the transition period or comply with the EU’s tariffs on goods.

THC is the chemical in marijuana that releases dopamine into the brain, giving people the high when they use marijuana. According to ABC 7 News, recreational cannabis products containing less than 35 percent THC will be taxed at 10 percent of the price; 35 percent THC will be taxed at 20 percent; and more than 35 percent THC will be taxed at 25 percent. Individual municipalities will be able to place additional taxes on recreational marijuana, if they choose to do so. Medical marijuana will not be taxed. Representative Edly-Allen would like more of the tax money to go to mental health and substance abuse help, stating, “We need to support the people who struggle with addiction. We have very little money going towards that. Some people will say, ‘We don’t need to tax [cannabis] that much,’ but we need to take care of the people who are falling through the cracks.” The Rise dispensary opened in Mundelein on Jan. 1.
