World Health Organisation chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has delivered an unlikely attack on China, voicing concerns the nation withheld vital Covid-19 data from Western experts. And he sensationally disputed remarks from both Chinese and Western experts from the mission to Wuhan earlier this year who dismissed the likelihood the virus had leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. He called on the theory to be investigated further, despite the highly-anticipated delayed joint report from… Source link

A Yahoo News story warning that “Florida COVID numbers face new scrutiny” incorrectly framed the key finding of the study it profiled, according to the principal researcher of the study in question as well as other researchers quoted in the same article. “Florida is undercounting the number of people who died from COVID-19 by thousands of cases, casting new doubt on claims that Gov. Ron DeSantis navigated the coronavirus pandemic successfully,” begins the fear-mongering story,… Source link

A host of liberal websites and personalities gleefully shared a Yahoo story Tuesday purporting Florida undercounted its coronavirus deaths by thousands, but the story quoted more experts undercutting its premise than supporting it. The piece by left-wing reporter Alexander Nazaryan, headlined “Florida COVID numbers face new scrutiny,” leads with “new research” that the state isn’t accurately reporting its death count, but critics of the article said it was the result of amateur data… Source link

WASHINGTON — New research published earlier this month in the American Journal of Public Health argues that Florida is undercounting the number of people who died from COVID-19 by thousands of cases, casting new doubt on claims that Gov. Ron DeSantis navigated the coronavirus pandemic successfully. Conservatives have celebrated DeSantis for his handling of the pandemic, which has killed more than 30,000 residents of the state. Critics of the combative governor, meanwhile, say that many of… Source link

For more than 48 hours, the NCAA men’s tournament returned to precisely what we fondly remembered — overtimes, upsets and the type of merry chaos that make the event one of the most exhilarating on the American sporting calendar.
