President Joe Biden left for vacation earlier this week as the U.S. recorded the highest daily number of new coronavirus cases since the start of the pandemic.
A New York Times editor who worked on Pulitzer-winning pandemic coverage has died of a heart attack just one day after he shared on Instagram that he had received the COVID-19 vaccine booster.
The World Council for Health, which describes itself as a "worldwide coalition of health-focused organizations and civil society groups that seek to broaden public health knowledge and sense-making through science and shared wisdom," has released a declaration demanding governments and organizations to put "an immediate stop" to the distribution of COVID vaccines all over the world.
Video circulating on social media shows various U.S. leaders claiming that the Covid-19 vaccine is effective at blocking transmission of the virus, then reversing their position.
