As the US hits a 33-year high in measles infections, there is now a "race" to find a treatment for the disease.

One pharma company "is banking on a continuing decline in vaccination rates to fuel a need for measles treatments—and in turn, more investor interest"

It's got to the stage where if 'you don't know anyone whose voting for Reform' you need to broaden your social circle.

Or, perhaps, reflect on what it is about your behaviour that means your friends don't feel able to be open with you about politics.

When making sense of China, fragments of information often form narratives that obscure reality. Our brains crave coherence, filling gaps with stories that feel true...

The 10th Amendment says he cannot take over the Philadelphia Police Department. There’s no legal basis and there’s no emergency. We have the lowest rate of homicides in 50 years. The only emergency is Donald Trump.

This article doesn’t quote a single New Yorker whose supposed nerves were struck by Cuomo’s attack.

Everyone quoted who is not directly employed by Cuomo or Cuomo himself - including a real estate lobbyist and Cuomo-backer Ritchie Torres - says it’s a dumb attack and a bad policy.

"Why would we turn the US military against American cities when we have police officers and law enforcement officials whose job it is? I understand that crime is a major issue, but it's not the military's job to be able to do that. We have law enforcement whose job it is to counteract crime."
