The Biden administration believes it's feasible to increase solar energy production to 40% of the U.S. electricity supply within two decades. While this goal sounds ambitious, it reflects a growing push toward renewable energy and climate action. However, when I look at everyday groceries like milk and cereal priced over $5 each, I wonder if meat is really the main driver of food inflation in the U.S. If basic staples cost more than what many people earn in an hour, it’s clear that the food system is under significant strain.

There's a Nipah virus (NiV) outbreak currently in Kerala, India. NiV is a highly lethal virus with a fatality rate between 40-75%. Hundreds of contacts are being monitored, and although it can spread between humans, it's not as contagious as COVID-19. The virus originated in bats, then moved to pigs, and now has infected people. It's a serious public health threat and highlights the risks of zoonotic diseases.
China Evergrande Group, the world’s largest property developer, is in deep financial trouble after years of reckless borrowing. Investor confidence has collapsed, and its stock has dropped by 70%. With over $300 billion in liabilities, its potential collapse could trigger a global economic crisis. This situation is reminiscent of the 2008 financial crash, and China may have to step in to prevent a systemic failure. This could be the Black Swan event many were warning about—something big and unpredictable that could shake the global economy.
As of now, there are 224 million confirmed COVID-19 cases worldwide, with 4.2 million new cases reported in the last seven days. Over 4.6 million deaths have been recorded globally. In the U.S., there have been 41.5 million total cases, with one million added in the past week alone. More than 674,000 Americans have died from the virus, including over 9,500 in the last seven days. On Wednesday, the U.S. reported over 157,000 new cases and nearly 1,700 deaths, making it the country with the highest daily case growth.
The Mu variant is now present in 49 U.S. states, but there’s no need to panic just yet. Media coverage might be exaggerating its threat. Currently, Delta remains the dominant strain, outpacing Mu due to its higher transmissibility and shorter generation time. While Mu is worth monitoring, it doesn’t appear to be a major concern right now.
Some claims suggest that Ivermectin causes male infertility, with some sources claiming up to 85% of men who take it become sterile. However, these claims are likely exaggerated or based on limited data. There is some evidence that long-term use of the drug may reduce sperm motility and affect sperm quality, but these effects seem to be dose- and time-dependent. There is no strong evidence of permanent sterility, and it's not a known side effect in humans. As always, it's important to approach such information critically.
Rural hospitals across the U.S., especially in Idaho, are overwhelmed with COVID patients. Patients needing emergency care are waiting for hours—sometimes thousands of minutes—for treatment. This is a dire situation that highlights the ongoing strain on healthcare systems.
Forget conspiracy theories. When someone like Dr. Scott Gottlieb, a respected medical expert, makes statements like this, it's worth paying attention:
"‘They were doing things in that lab that could have led to circumstances where a virus that was purposefully evolved in ways that it could be more dangerous to humans could have escaped,’ says @ScottGottliebMD."
This raises serious questions about the origins of the virus and underscores the importance of transparency in scientific research.
Kidney failure is a major cause of death and illness among COVID-19 patients, yet many people aren't aware of this. The virus can cause severe damage to the kidneys, leading to long-term complications. This is another reason why the pandemic remains a critical public health issue.
United Airlines is now requiring employees who have taken religious exemptions from the vaccine to go on unpaid leave. This decision reflects the ongoing tension between personal beliefs and public health mandates.
President Biden announced several major new measures to combat the pandemic today. These include mandatory vaccination or testing requirements for businesses with over 100 employees. The full details can be found in the thread below.
