One of The World's Prestigious Hospitals
Applied UV, Inc. (NasdaqCM: AUVI ) ("Applied UV" or the "Company"), a pathogen elimination technology company that applies the power of narrow-range ultraviolet light ("UVC") for surface areas and catalytic bioconversion technology for air purification to destroy pathogens safely, thoroughly, and automatically, announces that its wholly owned subsidiary SteriLumen has just installed its patented LumiCide Surface and Drain UVC Disinfecting Systems initially, in 17 patient rooms within the world renowned Mt. Sinai Medical Center Morningside. Mount Sinai Morningside , formerly known as Mount Sinai St. Luke's, is a teaching hospital located in the Morningside Heights neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City.
Mt. Sinai plans to publish the results in an Academic Paper later this summer which would further validate the previously obtained independent results conducted by ResInnova Laboratories. This validation could facilitate the adoption of our LumiCide Surface and Drain disinfection solutions throughout healthcare facilities globally.
Mount Sinai Morningside is affiliated with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and the Mount Sinai Health System, a nonprofit hospital system formed by the merger of Continuum Health Partners and the Mount Sinai Medical Center in September 2013. It provides general medical and surgical facilities, ambulatory care, and a Level 2 Trauma Center, verified by the American College of Surgeons. It operates 21 clinics and as of 2020, is nationally ranked by U.S. News & World Report .
John F. Andrews Applied UV's CEO and Director stated, "We welcome Mt. Sinai Medical Center to the Applied UV Family. The addition of this premier, globally recognized, and respected teaching institution to our growing list of leading hospitals who place their trust in our patented disinfection products (both air and surface) is further testament to the proven effectiveness but also, too the growing interest of globally recognized brands and companies who use our family of solutions to protect their facilities, employees, and products from harmful airborne and surface related pathogens. We look forward to a long and successful relationship with the Mt. Sinai team."
The LumiCide Disinfection System product line has the following attributes:
Applied UV's internal research and research provided by the CDC estimates that each year about 1 in 25 U.S. hospital patients (approximately 1.4M Americans) are diagnosed with at least one infection related to hospital care alone and additional infections occur in other healthcare settings. Approximately 900,000 Americans die each year due to complications associated with Hospital Acquired Infections. Many HAI's are caused by the most urgent and serious antibiotic -resistant (AR) bacteria and my lead to sepsis of death. According to NIH, Healthcare-associated infections are known to increase the length of stay, health care costs, and mortality. Each year the top 5 healthcare-associated infections result in about $9.8 billion costs.
Applied UV is focused on the development and acquisition of technology that address infection control in the healthcare, hospitality, commercial and municipal markets. The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries - SteriLumen, Inc. ("SteriLumen") and Munn Works, LLC ("Munn Works"). SteriLumen's connected platform for Data Driven Disinfection™ applies the power of ultraviolet light (UVC) to destroy pathogens safely, thoroughly, and automatically, addressing the challenge of healthcare-acquired infections ("HAIs"). Targeted for use in facilities that have high customer turnover such as hospitals, hotels, commercial facilities, and other public spaces, the Company's Lumicide™ platform uses UVC LEDs in several patented designs for infection control in and around high-traffic areas, including sinks and restrooms, killing bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens residing on hard surfaces within devices' proximity. The Company's patented in-drain disinfection device, Lumicide Drain, is the only product on the market that addresses this critical pathogen intensive location. SteriLumen's Airocide® air purification devices are research backed, clinically proven, and developed for NASA with assistance from the University of Wisconsin. Airocide® is listed as an FDA Class II Medical device, utilizes a proprietary photocatalytic (PCO) bioconversion technology that draws air into a reaction chamber that converts damaging molds, microorganisms, dangerous airborne pathogens, destructive VOCs, allergens, odors and biological gasses into harmless water vapor and green carbon dioxide without producing ozone or other harmful byproducts. Airocide® applications include healthcare, hospitality, grocery chains, wine making facilities, commercial real estate, schools, dental offices, post-harvest, grocery, cannabis facilities and homes.

WellteQ Digital Health Inc. (CSE: WTEQ) (OTCQB: WTEQF), (the "Company" or wellteq"), which supplies digital health and wellness solutions to customers in 12 languages across 32 countries is pleased to announce the Beta release of its new internet of medical things (IoMT) HealthHub, targeting commercial release later this year.
Based on a survey2of physicians in the United States who serve predominantly Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) and Medicare Advantage (MA) patients, McKinsey estimates that up to $265 billion (about $820 per person in the US) worth of care services - which represents up to 25% of the total cost of care - for Medicare FFS and MA beneficiaries could shift from traditional facilities to the home by 2025, without a reduction in quality or access.
The wellteq HealthHub has been developed from scratch by the Company, as an entirely new IoMT platform that can connect, manage, and monitor any standardized IoMT or IoT device using edge computing. Edge computing is part of a distributed computing topology in which information processing is located close to the physical location where things and people connect with the network. The HealthHub was specifically designed for the transition from centralized to distributed health deployments across enterprise health, clinic, pharmacy and for remote patient locations.
Edge computing augments and expands the possibilities of the primarily centralized, hyperscale cloud model of today, and supports the systemic evolution and deployment of the IoMT and new application types, enabling next-generation digital health applications. The HealthHub also offers contingency to cloud server processing in the case of a network outage to create a temporary stand-alone network.
The HealthHub has been built with wellteq's next-generation Unified API, which allows for secure remote monitoring and management, and enables third-party integrations with all aspects of the HealthHub and the API. This allows the HealthHub to be an integral value add for both new and existing EPHI (electronic protected health information) systems. All features and functionality delivered through wellteq's client applications and hardware will be offered as combined or stand-alone services for clients and partners to integrate with their own applications, services, and systems. This includes IoMT metrics capture, processing and automations, patient tracking with personalized digital coaching, reward scheme management, social activities, and content.
A powerful eight-core processor, large memory footprint and a versatile machine-learning secondary processor enable the hub to handle a wide variety of services, including natural language processing (NLP) services and auto-updated training models for artificial intelligence (AI). To best support the wide variety of IoMT devices, wellteq has designed a custom wireless chipset, enabling connectivity with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, Z-Wave and, optionally, cellular. Alongside the wireless chipset is a completely customized and optimized firmware stack that helps manage the multitude of wireless protocols, allowing the HealthHub to support over 500 connected IoMT and/or IoT devices simultaneously.
wellteq CEO, Scott Montgomery stated, "We are excited to initiate wellteq's entry into virtual care with a uniquely robust and truly one-of-kind solution. It has taken some time and a lot of effort, and we are proud to be the first company to launch an IoMT specific solution like the HealthHub that has been designed from scratch to facilitate the digital transition to virtual care for patients around the world."
wellteq is now working closely with its Beta research partners to integrate the HealthHub into their already deployed IoMT and IoT device configurations and applications for a variety of healthcare use cases, which will be the basis for wellteq's generic and condition-specific solutions for new B2B Virtual Care customers.

October 28 2021 TheNewswire - Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada - Jazz Resources Inc. (the " Company " or " JZR ") (TSXV:JZR) is pleased to report that drilling undertaken on the bedrock portion of the Vila Nova gold project, Amapa State, Brazil has intersected multiple veins with visible gold in all four drill holes, including the previously reported veins totaling 23.09 meters grading 31.58 gt (one ounce per tonne) at a vertical depth of 74.47 meters in Hole VN-3 (Cord. 44.416N, 418.157W).
The aforementioned intersection represents three quartz veins within a 37.78-meter interval that averages 19.3 g/t (0.62 oz) over the entire interval. True width of the unit is estimated at 60% of down-hole length in steeply dipping units that sub-crop below the 20 meters of unconsolidated tailings and rubble from previous hand mining.
Additional drill results for holes VN-1 through VN-4 are tabulated below.
UTM.Datum Sirgas 2000Zona 22N
The fire assays were conducted by GEOSOL- SGS Laboratories in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.
The illustration set out in the photo below demonstrates the parallel-banded iron formation quartz vein systems outcropping in surface pits and intersected by the drilling that was recently conducted. The values quoted above are from a single drill hole that is located in close proximity to this location, cutting across three of the near-vertical vein systems on the Vila Nova property. The multiple veins outcrop over a distance of at least 1.5km, within a total claim position of over 3 km in length.

"The Knowify Connector has made the already deep integration between QuickBooks Online Advanced and Knowify even more powerful and accessible." Said Marc Visent, CEO and Co-founder of Knowify. "Knowify's mission is to give growing construction companies the tools and guidance needed to execute on projects more efficiently and to understand how each project they take on is affecting their business overall.

INTUit (NASDAQ: INTU), the global technology platform behind QuickBooks , TurboTax , Mint , Credit Karma , and Mailchimp , announced today that Ben Chestnut has made the decision to step back from his role as CEO of Intuit Mailchimp to take on a Business Advisor role within the organization.
Mailchimp became a part of Intuit's Small Business and Self-Employed Group (SBSEG) in November 2021 following its acquisition by Intuit. Since the transaction closed, Ben has served as CEO of Mailchimp. Going forward, Ben will remain a part of Mailchimp's senior leadership team, helping drive product innovation at Mailchimp while also leaning in on talent recruitment in the burgeoning Atlanta technology corridor. A key ambassador for the brand, Ben will continue to support Intuit's growing presence in the Atlanta technology, business and civic communities, which is strong as a result of the longstanding investment Mailchimp has made since its founding there in 2001.
"Ben has been a visionary and caring leader whose passion for small businesses is coded into Mailchimp's DNA," said Alex Chriss, Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Intuit Small Business and Self-Employed Group (SBSEG). "His continued contributions to the Mailchimp team will be invaluable as Rania Succar takes the helm, accelerating the business and helping Intuit bring the power of QuickBooks and Mailchimp together to serve small and mid-market businesses around the world."
Rania Succar, a six-year veteran of Intuit, will add the role of Intuit Mailchimp CEO to her responsibilities. In her role as SVP of the QuickBooks Money Platform, Rania has a proven track record of accelerating business growth, and building and leading global teams through transformation. She brings to bear a wealth of experience from her prior roles at Merrill Lynch, McKinsey and Google, as well as her graduate and undergraduate studies at Harvard. Under Rania's leadership, the QuickBooks Online Payments business has grown three-fold since she took the helm in 2018. Since Mailchimp is part of the Intuit Small Business Self-Employed segment, as Intuit Mailchimp CEO and SVP of the QuickBooks Money Platform, Rania will remain a part of the SBSEG leadership team reporting to Alex Chriss.
"I'm blown away by all that Ben and the Mailchimp team have done to help small businesses succeed," said Rania Succar, Intuit Mailchimp CEO and SVP of the QuickBooks Money Platform. "I'm so honored to be joining this incredible brand and to be entrusted with guiding Mailchimp into its next chapter at a time when small and mid-market businesses around the world need us more than ever."
Intuit is the global technology platform that helps consumers and small businesses overcome their most important financial challenges. Serving more than 100 million customers worldwide with TurboTax , QuickBooks , Mint , Credit Karma , and Mailchimp , we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to prosper.

ANZ Bank New Zealand Ltd (ANZ New Zealand) has selected financial technology leader FIS ® (NYSE: FIS) to modernize its core banking capabilities.
ANZ New Zealand will be the first bank outside the U.S. to utilize FIS' Modern Banking Platform , which is deployed on Microsoft Azure. FIS' Modern Banking Platform enables convenient, frictionless digital banking services through a cloud-native architecture. The platform is a highly secure core banking solution that uses extensive measures to protect data, and features the latest advancements in cloud security, monitoring and resiliency from Azure.
Ninety-one percent of financial institutions are using cloud services today or planning to soon according to the Cloud Security Alliance 1 . Yet traditional brick and mortar banks have been slower to move the core of their operations, core banking capabilities, into the cloud.
Cloud-enabled, componentized, open and highly-secure FIS Modern Banking Platform is designed with API-first functionality that puts financial institutions in control of their customer experiences. The solution's plug-and-play components enable institutions to build the retail and commercial capabilities needed today with the speed needed to innovate into the future.
"Banks need modern systems to meet growing expectations for personalized products and services, and strengthen the customer experience," said Andrew Beatty, Head of Enterprise Banking at FIS. "Cloud-based systems have quickly moved from a competitive advantage to the baseline of what makes a successful bank. Cloud-based core banking will enable banks to increase their speed to market and become more agile. We believe ANZ New Zealand is just the beginning of a huge industry trend to drive digital transformation through the cloud."
"Upgrading our core banking technology into a cloud-based platform 2 means we can continue to deliver reliable, efficient and secure services for our customers," said Mike Bullock, Chief Information Officer at ANZ New Zealand. "Our current core banking system is very robust and up-to-date but, like most platforms used by banks around the world, it is based on technology developed decades ago. This work sits within our current five year investment plan and will allow us to be more innovative in how we deliver banking services."
"We're honored to be a part of ANZ New Zealand's cloud journey, together with FIS, to help modernize their core banking infrastructure," said Bill Borden, Corporate Vice President of Worldwide Financial Services at Microsoft. "Running on Microsoft Azure, FIS Modern Banking Platform delivers a flexible, data-driven solution to deepen customer relationships and roll out new products more quickly, while managing risk effectively."
ANZ New Zealand's current Systematics core banking technology is also supplied by FIS.
FIS' Modern Banking Platform is now available across the world in the U.K., Thailand and New Zealand, following its recent integration with Azure .
1 Cloud Usage in the Financial Sector 2 Before ANZ New Zealand can move to a cloud-based core banking system, non-objection will be required from the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA). Regular engagement will also take place with the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) and the Financial Markets Authority (FMA).
