    Excessive Online Time Linked to Stress and Mood Deterioration

    A German study published in PLOS One found that spending excessive time online, particularly engaging in activities like gaming, pornography use, social network use, or online shopping, is associated with higher stress levels, worse mood, and greater neglect of other daily activities. The study surveyed 900 adults in 2025 who reported engaging in these online behaviors at least once in the last year. The research suggests a vicious cycle where longer online time leads to worse mood, which in turn drives more internet use.

    Argentina Approves New Foot-and-Mouth Disease Vaccine from Colombian Lab

    Argentina's government is set to announce the approval of a new foot-and-mouth disease vaccine produced by a Colombian laboratory, Vecol, which already supplies Uruguay. This move is seen as a significant step in liberalizing the market, previously dominated by Biogénesis Bagó. The new vaccine, Aftogán, is expected to increase competition and potentially reduce prices. The market for foot-and-mouth disease vaccines is worth around USD 150 million annually in Argentina.

Economists interpret the figures as a reassuring signal, but they are far from a breakthrough. Despite the ongoing Iran war, the predicted recession has been avoided. Full order books and a startup boom are raising hopes for better times. However, the expected strong upswing is taking its time and inflation is picking up again.
