This summers Olympics in Rio should be postponed or moved because of the Zika outbreak, say health experts. The 150 experts, including former White House science adviser Dr Philip Rubin, issued an open letter to the World Health Organization (WHO), demanding the move in the name of public health.The letter cited recent scientific evidence that the Zika virus causes severe birth defects, most notably babies born with abnormally small heads. In adults, it can cause neurological problems, including a rare syndrome that can be fatal or result in temporary paralysis. The authors also noted that despite increased efforts to wipe out the mosquitoes that spread Zika, infections in Rio have gone up rather than down.Several public health academics have previously warned that having hundreds of thousands of people head to the Games (August 5-21) in Brazil will inevitably lead to the births of more brain-damaged babies and speed up the virus global spread. Heptathlon champion Jessica Ennis-Hill revealed her worries in April about the situation Olympic and world champion Jessica Ennis-Hill expressed her concerns in April. She said I have to make sure I understand whats happening and what the risks are. Its something I have to be on top of.Most people infected by Zika suffer only minor symptoms including fever, a rash and muscle or joint pain.WHO declared the Zika epidemic to be a global emergency in February and in its latest assessment this week, said it does not see an overall decline in the outbreak.Amir Attaran, a professor at the University of Ottawa and one of the letters authors, said: The fire is already burning, but that is not a rationale not to do anything about the Olympics.It is not the time now to throw more gasoline onto the fire.WHO has already advised pregnant women not to go to Rio and says other travellers should avoid poor and overcrowded parts of the city. The UN health agency also predicted the Zika risk in August would drop since it will be the south American winter and there should be fewer mosquitoes.WHO director general Dr Margaret Chan said earlier this month that the U.N. health agency is increasingly worried about Zika but stopped short of recommending the Rio Olympics be moved or postponed. Concerns over Zika have prompted USA Swimming to move its pre-Olympic training camp from Puerto Rico to Atlanta and Major League Baseball also scrapped a series of games that were going to be held in San Juan.No Olympic Games have ever been moved from their host city due to medical concerns, but in 2003, FIFA decided to switch the Womens World Cup football tournament from China to the United States on short notice due to the threat posed by the respiratory virus SARS.

MIAMI -- Freddie Freemans ongoing hitting streak wasnt enough to keep the Atlanta Braves best stretch this season going.Freeman had an RBI single in the first inning to extend his string to 28 games and added a home run for Atlanta, but the Braves season-best seven-game winning streak ended with a 6-4 loss to the Miami Marlins on Saturday night.Another Freeman night, extending his hitting streak, Braves interim manager Brian Snitker said.Its the longest streak of Freemans career and one shy of the longest in the majors this season by Bostons Jackie Bradley Jr.Freeman has also reached base in 44 straight.It feels good, Freeman said. Obviously, Ive worked really hard and things are clicking right now. Im getting pitches to hit and Im not missing them.The loss ended a season-long seven-game winning streak for the Braves, who are 19-13 in their last 32 after starting 44-79.Last two or three months now weve been playing real good baseball, Freeman said. It doesnt matter how many runs were down, were going to fight all the way to the end.It was a little bit of everything that fueled the Miami Marlins offense with Derek Dietrich hitting a two-run homer and Dee Gordon stealing three bases.Thats how we really want it to go most nights, Gordon said. Weve been scuffling a little bit so to have everybody clicking with getting guys over, timely hitting is good for us.Gordon had two hits, two walks and his stolen base total was one shy of tying the Marlins single-game ffranchise high, which he has done on two separate occasions.ddddddddddddWhen Dee is able to get on and being able to impact it like that -- it puts pressure on the pitcher and the defense, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. What I liked about tonight was that he was willing to take his walks. You really want your leadoff guy to get on base and it doesnt matter how.Brian Ellington (4-2) earned the win in relief and A.J. Ramos recorded his 39th save in 42 chances.The Braves pulled within 5-4 on a wild pitch by Fernando Rodney in the seventh inning.Miami jumped to an early 2-1 lead on Dietrichs two-run homer to right field in the first inning.Both starting pitchers exited before the fifth inning. Miamis Wei-Yin Chen allowed two runs in four innings and Atlantas Aaron Blair (1-7) allowed five runs over 3 1/3 innings.I just didnt have the command that I had five days ago, Blair said. I got myself in trouble walking the leadoff hitter two of the four innings. I put myself in bad counts in those situations.MARLINS SPEEDThe Marlins stole five bases. Yefri Perez and Realmuto also stole a base off catcher Anthony Recker.The five steals are the most since the Marlins stole five against Pittsburgh on Aug. 25, 2015.DIETRICH CATCHDietrich made a catch falling into the stands down the first-base line on a popup by Recker in the eighth inning.
