Thousands in Australia march against immigration, government condemns rally
Thousands of Australians joined anti-immigration rallies across the country on Sunday that the centre-left government condemned, saying they sought to spread hate and were linked to neo-Nazis, Reuters reported.
March for Australia rallies against immigration were held in Sydney and other state capitals and regional centres, according to the group's website.
"Mass migration has torn at the bonds that held our communities together," the website says. The group posted on X on Saturday that the rallies aimed to do "what the mainstream politicians never have the courage to do: demand an end to mass immigration".
AI stethoscope could detect major heart conditions in seconds
Stethoscopes powered by artificial intelligence (AI) could help detect three different heart conditions in seconds, researchers say, BBC reported.
The original stethoscope, invented in 1816, allows doctors to listen to the internal sounds of a patient's body.
A British team conducted a study using a modern version and say they found it can spot heart failure, heart valve disease and abnormal heart rhythms almost instantly.
The tool could be a "real game-changer" resulting in patients being treated sooner, the researchers say - with plans to roll the device out across the UK following a study involving 205 GP surgeries in west and north-west London, according to BBC.
