15 Million Americans Could Lose Medicaid Coverage as Pandemic-Era Policy Ends
Some 15 million people could lose their Medicaid coverage over the next few months as pandemic-related emergency provisions come to an end—though residents in five states will feel its impact earlier than others.
During the pandemic, the yearly reapplication process for Medicaid was paused and states stopped checking if people were still eligible for its coverage. But starting April 1, people in Arizona, Arkansas, Idaho, New Hampshire and South Dakota could see their loss of healthcare coverage as Medicaid begins to verify eligibility and will begin to disenroll patients.
Fourteen more states will cut off coverage ...

Dispute simmers over who first shared SARS-CoV-2 ’s genome
When GISAID, the widely used database for influenza and SARS-CoV-2 genomes,
issued a statement
last week about a set of controversial sequences from the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in Wuhan, China, the release explained by way of background that the repository was “an essential contributor to global health” trusted by thousands of data contributors from 215 nations and territories. But GISAID also included a claim that has been puzzling and infuriating some virologists for 3 years: It was the place where the first SARS-CoV-2 genomes were publicly shared, on 10 January 2020.
That claim challenges contempo...

nando Carreras

Celebrating the success of the COVID-19 vaccines, and looking to the future
It ’s been over three years since I saw my first COVID-19 patient in the emergency department. The image of that x-ray is burned into my memory: clusters of white spots spread out across both sides of the patient’s lung. A dramatic, and not all that common, clinical finding. The patient in front of me already had a fever and was breathing quickly, in need of extra oxygen support. I didn't know then the significance that patient would have on me, but three years later I think about them often, and how they marked the start of a three plus year journey that changed the world.

Bheed review – lockdown thriller cuts across India’s class conflict

Three years on, there is a new generation of lockdown sceptics – and they’re rewriting history | Richard Seymour
Now academics on the left have joined the anti-lockdown chorus. Yet their Covid theories rely on a travesty of the factsWas the pain worth it? Between March 2020 and March 2021, the UK hadthree national lockdowns. The goal was to control the spread of Covid-19. Essential businesses were closed, as were schools and universities, and “stay at home” orders meant families and friends were often kept apart.

Lord Sumption, for example, insisted that if it weren’t for lockdown, people could have “a perfectly normal life. ”Now a new...
