No Borders (OTC: NBDR) on Friday announced that its subsidiary, MediDent Supplies, has begun expedited air freight shipments of medical equipment and supplies into its operations center in Phoenix, Arizona. Due to national demand for medical equipment such as ventilators, respirators, touchless thermometers, and autoclaves as well as municipal and hospital demand for PPE and disposables such as DTC3X-N95 surgical masks, SMS isolation gowns, latex & nitrile gloves, and ammonia disinfectant wipes, in addition to the recent launch of the Company’s “MediDent Supplies Viral Specimen Collection Kit” to support the #StayHomeSaveLives efforts across the country, MediDent executives determined that expediting delivery of these items to its distribution facility to begin filling immediate volume demands would serve the national interest while positively impacting the Company’s revenues. “Even with the investments, our Board approved before COVID-19 took hold in the USA we have simply been overwhelmed with demand for testing, PPE gear and many other items,” MediDent Supplies CEO Joseph Snyder said in the news release. “While we have been able to continue delivering to new and existing customers so far, these efforts to quickly bring large volumes of items to market while expanding our product lines based on the needs of municipal and healthcare groups will increase the impact our company has and the growth of shareholder value.

420 with CNW – New York Legislators File Revised Cannabis Legalization Bill

Compared to other states, cannabis legalization efforts in New York have been slow. Both hemp and marijuana bills have been held up in various stages of the legalization process, and the emergence of the coronavirus has thrown a wrench into the works. For instance, Governor Cuomo had been planning on carrying out benchmarking visits to legal cannabis states, but he has stated that the tour has been delayed as the country deals with the coronavirus pandemic.

However, there is still a glimmer of hope after lawmakers recently rolled out a revised bill to legalize marijuana in the state. Filed last week on Thursday, the bill would allow individuals 21 and over to purchase cannabis from licensed retailers and grow up to six plants for personal use.

Cannabis sales would be subject to an 18% tax which will be used to cover the costs of implementation. The remainder will go towards three areas: 25% will go to a state lottery fund designated for the Department of Education, 25% will be used for a drug treatment and public education fund, and 50% will go to a community grants investment fund.

Governor Cuomo has in the past stated that the budget should be the vehicle to enact reform, and he has included legalization in his budget proposal for the second year in the row. And despite the current state of world affairs, he has insisted that pushing reform through the budget is the best way to move forward.

Melissa Moore, New York deputy state director of the Drug Policy Alliance states that in an ideal world, language from the revised bill would be inserted into the budget before it arrives at Governor Cuomo’s desk. “But that prospect seems dimmed in light of the current crisis, which has shifted legislative priorities,” Moore says.

“We have to make the political decisions. The budget is the time to make the political decisions,” stated Governor Cuomo, adding that “without the budget, the easiest thing for a legislative body to do is to do nothing.”

The measure hasn’t received overwhelming support, with some wondering whether the bill will be passed in its entirety. According to Senate Deputy Leader Mike Gianaris, issues like marijuana reform could be delayed as lawmakers ‘try to be incredibly effective this week, to only come in as necessary.’

“I think at this point it’s pretty unlikely that adult-use moves in the expedited budget the NY legislature is working on. Sounds like they’re focusing on essential items and policy provisions like this are falling out as they try to close the budget by Friday,” says Moore.

The Senate version of the bill is currently sitting at the Finance Committee and the Assembly version is in the Codes Committee.

It would be interesting to hear what sector players like Willow Biosciences Inc. (TSX: WLLW) (OTCQB: CANSF) have to say about this latest move to legalize marijuana legislatively in New York State.

420 with CNW – How to Avoid Germs While Consuming Marijuana

One thing the coronavirus pandemic has brought to light is that we could do so much better in terms of hygiene. As we all take precautions to prevent the spread of the virus, germs and any sort of dirt have become enemy number one, with people observing a level of hygiene never seen before. That mindset should also be applied when consuming cannabis.

Now, the medical benefits of cannabis have been discussed in great detail. You get a reprieve from anxiety, insomnia, and chronic pain among a plethora of other conditions, but what many don’t know is that cannabis can get very germy. Moose Labs, a Los Angeles-based cannabis accessories company co-founded by brothers Dan and Jay Rush recently ran a study to quantify just how germy cannabis can get, and the results were quite interesting.

“We found that the average public toilet is cleaner than the average bong that we tested, and that’s horrifyingly disgusting. The average gas station toilet seat has about 900 bacteria per square inch, whereas the average bong has 3,000 bacteria per square inch,” says Jay Rush.

Given the times we’re in, maintaining a high level of hygiene ought to be a priority. Here are a few tips to avoid germs the next time you consume cannabis.

Keep your equipment clean. Pipes, bongs and dab rigs can accumulate an astonishing amount of bacteria, and cleaning them regularly is the best way to prevent this. The most common method is using rubbing alcohol (99% isopropyl) and coarse sea salt, but there are several other methods that work. On top of bacteria, unclean equipment significantly hinders the flavor of your cannabis.

Use smoking accessories, especially if you participate in a lot of communal smoking sessions. The MouthPeace created by Moose Labs, for instance, is a universal smoking accessory that fits into bowls, pipes, and vapes. It acts as a barrier between your mouth and any bacteria on the equipment, and it also filters out the amount of dirt and residue going into your lungs. With accessories like these, you’ll be able to take part in a communal session with little worry about germs.

Be proactive. Prevention is better than cure every time, so limiting your germs intake should be your first priority. Moose Labs offered 200 participants free hits from a dab rig, and they found that only 5% of the participants used the free alcohol wipes offered to cleanse the piece before smoking. Being mindful of how many people have taken a hit before you will show you the level of precaution you need to take, whether it’s wiping down the piece or whipping out a smoking accessory.

You could also lightly run a flame over the piece but Moose Labs found that it wasn’t as effective as rubbing alcohol. “We tested a lighter pass and T-shirt wipe and both of them reduced bacteria, but not to a sanitary level, more like from 1,800 to 1,100 bacteria per square inch.”

This information regarding how important hygiene should be among cannabis consumers is likely to be very helpful to industry players like Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQX: PLPRF) who would like to do everything they can to ensure that their customers are safe while using cannabis products.

CannabisNewsBreaks – Why Round Meadow Holdings Corp. Is ‘One to Watch’

Comprised of a synergistic portfolio of cannabis service companies, Round Meadow Holdings (“RMH”) is committed to supporting the evolving cannabis industry. A recent article discussing the company reads, “Historically, when industries such as cannabis experienced growth spurts, many people rushed to find their position within that space. As the competitive landscape increased, so did the velocity of product offerings. For instance, during the Gold Rush of 1849, most successes were found among companies that provided services to the miners rather than with the miners themselves. Levi Strauss and a few well-known hotel chains and banks know all too well the outcome of offering goods and services to an exploding industry. . . . RMH recognizes numerous opportunities within the current marketplace and has defined its strategy for success in the evolving cannabis industry. At the core of this strategy is a portfolio of synergistic brands, including Canna Paid, Budtender Awards, BudtenderSelect.com and High Lifestyle. These separate verticals are designed to provide relevant and much-needed services to the cannabis industry. They are interconnected and supportive of each other, strengthening their positions as a whole.”
