http://youtu.be/vRd1YpLUVTQ The record surge in coronavirus cases across the US is likely far worse, with an estimated eight infections unreported for every one infection counted, according to a government report — which would put the true tally closer to 100 million. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) calculated that by the end of September there had really been as many as 53 million Americans contract the deadly bug — just under eight times the confirmed cases reported at the time.

http://youtu.be/xztKRrg8kME Former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis is urging Joe Biden to dump President Trump’s “America first” foreign policy for a more “cooperative” approach with the country’s allies around the globe. “In January, when President Joe Biden and his national security team begin to reevaluate U.S. foreign policy, we hope they will quickly revise the national security strategy to eliminate ‘America first’ from its contents, restoring in its place the commitment to cooperative security that has served the United States so well for decades,” Mattis wrote in Foreign Affairs magazine in an op-ed published Monday. #JimMattis #JoeBiden #DonaldTrump The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, cult...

http://youtu.be/YD4AEmWjUrQ Dr. Anthony Fauci on Monday called on New York and other states to accept a COVID-19 vaccine once it’s approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases said he “doesn’t agree” that it’s necessary for Gov. Andrew Cuomo and other state leaders to conduct their own in-house reviews before distributing a vaccine. “Hopefully I can appeal to them to say that yes, you can look at the data, everybody should be looking at the data — there’s nothing wrong with that — but trust the process because it’s a sound process,” Fauci told the Washington Post. #AnthonyFauci #COVID19 The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate...

Australian airline Qantas will require travelers on international flights to be jabbed with a coronavirus vaccine once an inoculation is ready, CEO Alan Joyce said. “Whether you need that domestically, we’ll have to see what happens with COVID-19 in the market, but certainly for international visitors coming out and people leaving the country, we think that’s a necessity,” Joyce said in a Monday interview with the Australian news program “A Current Affair.” #Qantas The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.

http://youtu.be/cxLzG5HB4_U Israeli scientists say they’ve created a way to treat cancer in mice that is so precise, it’s like using “tiny scissors” to target the cells, according to a report. “This is the first study in the world to prove that the CRISPR genome editing system, which works by cutting DNA, can effectively be used to treat cancer in an animal,” Professor Dan Peer, a cancer expert from Tel Aviv University, told the Times of Israel. Peer’s research was published last week in the Science Advances journal.

http://youtu.be/RRueQ2yuD4A Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Tuesday said he won’t delete the account of former White House adviser Steve Bannon for suggesting putting the heads of infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci and FBI Director Christopher Wray “on pikes.” Twitter banned Bannon for the remark — made this month on his webcast “War Room” — but Facebook only removed the video. Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) told Zuckerberg at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that Bannon was calling for violence and should be de-platformed.

http://youtu.be/1QWmFIqH24Y President Trump on Monday encouraged a re-election challenge to Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine after the fellow Republican said Trump should begin handing over the reins to President-elect Joe Biden. “Who will be running for Governor of the Great State of Ohio? Will be hotly contested!” Trump tweeted, shortly after writing, “I won the Election!” DeWine, a former senator who worked for 12 years alongside Biden in Congress, was elected to a four-year term as governor in 2018 and won’t face voters again until 2022. #DonaldTrump #MikeDeWine The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.

http://youtu.be/PQviqKV4g4c A traveling nurse on assignment in Texas described “horrific” conditions for patients with COVID-19 as hospitals reach max capacity amid a dramatic surge in local cases. Among the most shocking claims made by registered nurse Lawanna Rivers about her time working at the University Medical Center in El Paso is the existence of a room she calls “The Pit,” where the worst COVID-positive patients were sent to die with minimal treatment and limited efforts at resuscitation. Due to the sheer number of patients at the hospital, she and other nurses were instructed to give each person in “The Pit” just three rounds of CPR before the person was pronounced dead — a significant reduction to the normal efforts aimed at keeping patients alive.

http://youtu.be/ek-8dCKaCUU Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez defended her support for “defund the police” Thursday night after a number of Democrats credited the slogan, among other far-left policies she has championed, for their loss of seats in the House. Democratic leaders complained that two issues closely associated with AOC — defunding the police and socialism — contributed to Democratic losses in House races last week, including Republican challenger Nicole Malliotakis ousting first-term Democratic Rep.

The C-shaped sign, one of several being considered to replace B-I-D-E-N, is meant to evoke his signature Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses, the Los Angeles Times reported. “We BIPOC completely disagree with that [sign],” ASL influencer and TikTok user Nakia Smith signed in a video on Monday, referring to the acronym for black, Indigenous and people of color. “[The sign] feels so unsafe for us,” she added.

http://youtu.be/bUAQ0eK7oM0 Some volunteers who took part in Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccine trials say they were left feeling like they had a “severe hangover,” according to reports. The more than 43,500 people in six countries who took part in phase three trials by the pharmaceutical giant were never told whether they were injected with the vaccine or a placebo in the double-blind tests. But some said they believe they had the drug because of headaches, fever and muscle aches that were compared to getting the flu shot or recovering from a heavy night out, the Sun said. Texan Glenn Deshields, 44, said his “severe hangover” symptoms soon cleared up, however — and he later took an antibody test that came back positive. He said he was “very excited” by Monday’s news that the tests showed t...

http://youtu.be/jtu0j3x1KT4 The former head of the Food and Drug Administration said President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration will likely coincide with the “apex” of the latest wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. “The reality is that by the time the president-elect takes office, we’ll probably be at the sort of apex, if you will, of what we’re going through right now,” Dr. Scott Gottlieb said Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” When he enters office on Jan. 20, Biden will have to be prepared to “hit the ground running” in order to tackle the spreading virus, Gottlieb said. #JoeBiden The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.
