      The Trump administration reportedly quietly funded Operation Warp Speed with money set aside for hospitals

      Congress granted the HHS permission to move pandemic-related money between accounts, though the agreement stipulated the agency had to give lawmakers a heads up. Former Office of Management and Director Russ Vought defended the decision and said "we would do it again," telling Stat that not only did the administration have the authority, it was also "the right thing to do in order to move as quickly as possible because lives were on the line." Other Trump officials seemed to agree, per Stat, arguing that successful vaccines would reduce hospitalizations, making Warp Speed the more consequential outlet.

      Modi takes home-grown vaccine as India widens immunisation drive

      Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was inoculated with the first dose of a home-grown coronavirus vaccine on Monday, kicking off an expansion of the country's immunisation campaign as infections rise in some big states. India, which has reported the highest number of COVID-19 cases after the United States, has so far vaccinated 12 million health and front-line workers since starting its immunisation programme in mid-January. "I appeal to all those who are eligible to take the vaccine," 70-year-old Modi said on Twitter, posting a picture of him getting the shot at a government hospital in New Delhi.

      Chinese vaccines sweep much of the world, despite concerns

      The plane laden with vaccines had just rolled to a stop at Santiago's airport in late January, and Chile's president, Sebastiรกn Piรฑera, was beaming. The source of that hope: China โ€“ a country that Chile and dozens of other nations are depending on to help rescue them from the COVID-19 pandemic. China's vaccine diplomacy campaign has been a surprising success: It has pledged roughly half a billion doses of its vaccine to more than 45 countries, according to a country-by-country tally by The Associated Press.

      Wealthy alumni demand University of Texas defy 'cancel culture' and defend racist school song

      Wealthy alumni are threatening to pull their donations from the University of Texas at Austin because students have been protesting the university's controversial alma mater song, The Texas Tribune reports. "The Eyes of Texas," which plays after football games, is a cherished tradition for many, but it was historically performed at campus minstrel shows, and the title is linked to a saying from Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee. It appears, however, many donors consider the movement to be the product of "cancel culture" and "Marxist ideology," and emails obtained by the Tribune show they're willing to pull their financial support for the university over the issue.

      Canada vaccine committee advises against use of AstraZeneca COVID-19 shots for 65 years and above

      Canada's National Advisory Committee on Immunization released new guidelines on Monday that advise against vaccinating people who are 65 years and older with AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine, citing lack of information about efficacy in that age group. The vaccine was authorized for people who are 18 and older by drug regulator Health Canada on Friday. Health Canada's decision noted that available clinical trial data was too limited to reliably estimate how well the vaccine worked in people 65 and older.

      Why stop at $1,400? These Democratic senators want Biden to back recurring stimulus checks

      A group of Democratic senators is urging President Joe Biden to support recurring direct payments to lower-income Americans, arguing that regular, additional cash assistance is necessary until the economy fully recovers from the pandemic-induced downturn. The proposal โ€” which likely would face an uphill climb to become law even if gained wide support within the Democratic Party โ€” would build on the means-tested, one-time $1,400 stimulus check included in Biden's coronavirus relief bill, which passed the House last week and is now under consideration in the Senate. The senators, who also requested Biden support automatic unemployment insurance extensions, said they would like the president to include the ideas in a future economic recovery bill.

      New Orleans Catholics told to avoid Johnson & Johnson vaccine on religious grounds

      The archdiocese of New Orleans has told local Catholics to avoid the Johnson & Johnson's single-shot Covid-19 vaccine, because its early development used โ€œmorally compromised cell lines created from two abortionsโ€. It said two other vaccines in use in the US, made by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna, were acceptable despite having been developed with โ€œsome lab testing that utilised the abortion-derived cell lineโ€. In December, the Vatican said it was โ€œmorally acceptable to receive Covid-19 vaccines that have used cell lines from aborted foetuses in their research and production processโ€, as the use of such vaccines โ€œdoes not constitute formal cooperation with the abortion from which the cells used in production of the vaccines deriveโ€.

      โ€˜Morally compromised.โ€™ Why one archdiocese urges Catholics to avoid newest COVID vaccine

      The Archdiocese of New Orleans has advised Catholics against receiving the new Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine, calling the one-dose shot โ€œmorally compromised. In a statement Friday, the religious organization said the new vaccine should be avoided due to its link to an โ€œabortion-derived cell lineโ€ used in the vaccine's development and production phases. But the available vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna are โ€œmorally acceptable,โ€ the archdiocese wrote, because only some lab testing utilized stem cells from aborted fetuses, making their connection to abortion โ€œextremely remote.

      As state electors, Congress, over 60 unsuccessful lawsuits, Trump administration officials like former attorney William Barr, and even many (but certainly not all) state-level Republican officials have confirmed, Joe Biden won the election fair and square. The ex-president also blamed a litany of factors for his loss, from dead voters being counted to new mail-in ballot expansions during the pandemic. The Democrats used the China virus as an excuse to change all of the election rules, without the approval of their state legislators, making it therefore illegal.

Six individuals infected with the "variant of concern" have been detected in Britain.

      The state Supreme Court agreed Monday with unusual speed to hear former Minneapolis police officer Mohamed Noor's appeal of his third-degree murder conviction. Noor's lawyer Thomas Plunkett filed a petition last Thursday, asking the court to hear the case. It is extremely rare for the court to grant review so quickly but the charge Noor appealed has implications in the case against Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer set to go on trial in Hennepin County District Court on Monday in the death of George Floyd.

      There is no place for sexual harassment or abuse of power in any American workplace โ€” be it in business or politics. No one, no matter where they work or what they do should be subject to harassment or hostility from a co-worker, and especially not from someone in a position of power.

      The Royal Family has "more important things to worry about" than the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's Oprah Winfrey interview, Buckingham Palace aides said on Monday night, as the Duke of Edinburgh was transferred to a leading cardiac hospital. Prince Philip, 99, was taken by ambulance from the private King Edward VII's Hospital to St Bartholomew's Hospital in central London just hours after a dramatic clip of the Sussexes' โ€œshockingโ€ comments was released by a US television network. Palace aides suggested that the family's focus was solely on the Duke, who had already spent 13 nights in hospital and is expected to remain there until at least the end of the week.
