RETA IMMINENT DEADLINE: Zhang Investor Law Alerts Investors to Deadline in Securities Class Action Lawsuit Against  Reata Pharmaceuticals, Inc. – RETA

NEW YORK, Nov. 17, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Zhang Investor Law announces a class action lawsuit on behalf of shareholders who bought shares of Reata Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: RETA) between October 15, 2019 and August 7, 2020, inclusive (the “Class Period”).

To join the class action, go to http://zhanginvestorlaw.com/join-action-form/?slug=reata-pharmaceuticals-inc&id=2468 or call Sophie Zhang, Esq. toll-free at 800-991-3756 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

如果您想加入这个集体诉讼案,请在这里提交您的信息。http://zhanginvestorlaw.com/join-action-form/?slug=reata-pharmaceuticals-inc&id=2468

If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court before December 14, 2020 DEADLINE.   A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. 

According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose, among other things:  the MOXIe Part 2 study results were insufficient to support a single study marketing approval of omaveloxolone for the treatment of Friedreich’s ataxia (“FA”) in the U.S. without additional evidence; as a result, it was foreseeably likely that the FDA would not accept marketing approval of omaveloxolone for the treatment of FA in the U.S. based on the MOXIe Part 2 study results; and as a result, the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

Lead plaintiff status is not required to seek compensation.  You may retain counsel of your choice.  You may remain an absent class member and take no action at this time.

CarePlus Health Plans Sends At-home Screening Kits to Members During COVID-19

CarePlus Health Plans Sends At-home Screening Kits to Members During COVID-19

These actions are part of the company’s plan to help ensure CarePlus Medicare Advantage members in Florida complete important preventive screenings

MIAMI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
In an effort to increase access to important preventive healthcare screenings, CarePlus Health Plans, Inc., Florida’s largest* Medicare Advantage plan rated 5 out of 5 stars for 2021, is mailing in-home preventive screening kits to eligible members. CarePlus, a subsidiary of Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM), serves more than 166,000* Medicare Advantage members across Florida.

The three in-home tests being mailed to CarePlus Medicare Advantage members focus on screening for colorectal cancer and on diabetic condition management (HbA1c blood sugar test and kidney screening). All CarePlus Medicare Advantage members who have a clinical opportunity for these screenings will automatically receive them in the mail.

After receiving the screening kits at no cost to them, members may complete the tests in the comfort of their homes and mail them back in a pre-paid envelope. The results are sent to members and their primary care physicians in case a follow up is needed.

“As Florida remains in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, we know that many of our members may still be wary of leaving home to complete important routine health screenings,” said CarePlus Vice President of Health Services Dr. Madeleine Rodriguez. “Yet, these tests are a vital way to help diagnose colon cancer earlier and prevent complications related to diabetes which, in turn, help improve health outcomes for our members.”

Dr. Rodriguez assured that, while it is a relatively simple process where members complete the tests at home and mail them back for test results, CarePlus will have phone support readily available to assist members.

In addition to mailing these in-home screening kits, during COVID-19 CarePlus continues to take actions to support care for its members, including:

  • Proactive outreach to support members’ social needs. Since March, CarePlus has been reaching out to our managed members in our medical plans to help identify and address social needs.
  • Encouraging members to get their flu shots early this year.
  • Mailing care kits containing two protective face masks to support members’ visits to healthcare providers.
  • CarePlus is waiving Medicare Advantage members’ out-of-pocket costs for outpatient behavioral health, on an outpatient, non-facility basis, and telehealth** visits through the end of 2020.

UMAX GROUP CORP. – Lowering of Authorized Common Stock

PR Newswire

LAS VEGAS, Nov. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — UMAX Group Corp. (OTC Markets: UMAX),  a Nevada corporation, has tasked its securities counsel with amending its articles of incorporation to lower its authorized Common Stock from 1,850,000,00 shares to 500,000,000 shares.  This announcement comes on the heels of the planned cancellation of 500,000,000 issued and outstanding shares by the majority shareholder of the company.

Mr. Fletcher (President and CEO of the Company), states…”This amendment to our articles of incorporation, which will lower our authorized common stock from 1,850,000,000 to 500,000,000 shares, is part of our efforts to restructure the capitalization of the Company to benefit shareholders and to become attractive to future company acquisitions. These announced corporate actions are part of our efforts to make the Company more attractive to future acquisitions and install an anti-dilutive, pro-investor capital structure.”

The announced lowering of our authorized Common Stock will be completed as soon as the cancellation of the 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock is completed.

Mr. Fletcher further stated…”Once the authorized Common Stock is lowered, the Company has agreed to not effectuate an increase in the amount of stock authorized for a minimum period of three calendar years.  Moving forward, the goal of management with the Common Stock cancellation and today’s announcement of a lowered authorized common stock, is to trade at a relatively normalized market capitalization with the market’s understanding that as we make our future acquisitions, the current shareholders will not suffer significant dilution of their holdings. As we grow the future business of the Company, we want our public shareholders to understand that we have one goal in mind, to maximize shareholder value.”

AT&T Selected for 10-Year, $311 Million Task Order to Modernize NOAA’s Network in Support of Its Mission for the Next Decade

PR Newswire

OAKTON, Va., Nov. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — What’s the news? AT&T* will deliver modern networking capabilities and other advanced technologies to the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under a Task Order from NOAA valued at $311 million over 10 years. The Task Order was made under the General Service Administration’s (GSA) Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions (EIS) program, which the government created to help federal agencies modernize their technology infrastructure.

Why is this important?
 NOAA wants to modernize and transform its networking technologies and lay the foundation for 5G and multi-access edge computing capabilities. Using EIS, NOAA is acquiring from AT&T networking infrastructure and advanced capabilities that can power its mission well into the next decade.

A key reason the agency needs the capabilities is the alarming rate at which weather events are impacting the U.S. The first 9 months of 2020 brought a record-tying 16 different billion-dollar disasters. NOAA is America’s environmental intelligence agency, responsible for daily weather forecasts, severe storm warnings and climate monitoring as well as fisheries management, coastal restoration and supporting marine commerce. Its products and services support economic vitality and affect more than 1/3 of America’s Gross Domestic Product.

What is the scope of NOAA’s network modernization?
 Under this agreement, we will transform NOAA’s current networking model, moving from a multiple vendor environment to a single, seamless next-generation communications platform. This consolidation of networks onto a single IP-based network can help reduce network outage risks and improve network and application availability. AT&T’s network modernization effort for NOAA is comprehensive. We will modernize NOAA’s networking services across the breadth of its U.S. Territories and international operations including its headquarters and 6 line offices. These include the National Weather Service (NWS), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Ocean Service (NOS), Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS), and Office of Marine and Aviation Operations (OMAO).  

We will deliver advanced technologies including unified communications, virtual private networking, IP-based wireless and wireline networking. With NOAA, we will manage this network and its security services. We expect our network capabilities will enhance the speed of data transmission across NOAA’s organizations and support task efficiencies in everyday operations such as communications and weather data collection, sharing, analysis and publishing. Ultimately, our advanced technologies will support the entirety of NOAA’s mission, shared across the NOAA workforce who will be using them to help keep the public informed of the changing environment around them: from the surface of the sun to the depths of the ocean floor.

Quote from Zachary Goldstein, Chief Information Officer, NOAA:

“Telecommunications is vital to NOAA’s missions. Moving to Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions is key to modernizing our telecommunications and continuing to advance our service to the American people.”

Quote from Chris Smith, Vice President-Civilian and Shared Services, AT&T Public Sector and FirstNet:

“NOAA’s mission is highly data intensive requiring the most sophisticated advanced networking services commercially available. This Task Order award is testimony to our capability to deliver robust and reliable services at scale and manage them end-to-end to help government agencies like NOAA improve mission fulfillment.”

When does the work begin? Network implementation services begin immediately.
