Opinion | Why Does the N.Y.P.D. Want to Punish Journalists? – The New York Times

“Let’s revoke the NYPD’s ability to issue press credentials entirely. They’ve repeatedly proven that they are unwilling and unable to oversee a legitimate process,” Scott Stringer, the city’s comptroller, tweeted. Keith Powers, a City Council member, tweeted that he was considering legislation that would move credentialing to a new agency.

British Vogue editor racially profiled by magazine’s security guard | World news | The Guardian

Edward Enninful, who is black, has been the fashion magazine’s editor-in-chief since 2017. He said the incident took place as he walked into his offices on Wednesday.

“Today, I was racially profiled by a security guard whilst entering my work place. I was instructed to use the loading bay. Just because our timelines and weekends are returning to normal, we cannot let the world return to how it was. Change needs to happen now.”

“We are not defenseless against COVID-19,” Redfield said in a CDC press release. “Cloth face coverings are one of the most powerful weapons we have to slow and stop the spread of the virus — particularly when used universally within a community setting. All Americans have a responsibility to protect themselves, their families, and their communities.” In an interview with JAMA posted on YouTube, Redfield said that universal face coverings in public would help the United States get the pandemic under control within 4 to 8 weeks.

Corona Mutations: The Changing Virus – DER SPIEGEL

Scientists are suspiciously tracking every change in SARS-CoV-2, with dangerous looking mutations regularly appearing. On the long term, though, experts hope that the pathogen could prove less aggressive.

Using the mutation rate, the experts have at least been able to determine that the pandemic probably started between October 6 and December 11, 2019. This refutes speculation that the pandemic started last summer and was kept secret by the Chinese government.

More than anything, though, a better understanding of how the pathogen changes can be helpful in developing drugs to treat the disease it causes. “We need medications and vaccines that can’t easily be circumvented by the virus,” says Balloux. “We should therefore concentrate our efforts on the parts of the virus genome that show the least number of mutations.”
