NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Stock Exchange reinstated plans to delist shares of three Chinese state-owned phone carriers under an order from President Donald Trump. The exchange said initially said on Jan. 1 that it would remove China Telecom Corp. Ltd., China Mobile Ltd. and China Unicom Hong Kong Ltd. only to withdraw the decision Monday. Trump’s order bars Americans from investing in securities issued by companies deemed to be linked to the Chinese military. The NYSE reversed course “following new specific guidance,” according to a statement on Wednesday. Trading in the companies will be suspended after markets close Jan. 11.

Nicaragua congress adopts life sentences; opposition opposes

MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP) — Nicaragua’s congress has given final approval to President Daniel Ortega’s proposal to change the constitution to permit life imprisonment. Congress is dominated by Ortega’s Sandinista party, and opposition legislators voted against the measure or abstained Monday. Opponents say life sentences could be used against the political opposition, like other recent measures passed by Ortega’s party. Ortega has claimed that opponents are guilty of “hate crimes,” one of the categories that could be punished by life in prison. In recent months, Ortega’s party has passed laws essentially banning opposition candidates from running in the 2021 presidential election.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Joe Biden has selected Merrick Garland, a federal appeals court judge, as his attorney general, two people familiar with the selection process said Wednesday.
Garland, a federal appeals court judge, in 2016 was snubbed by Republicans for a seat on the Supreme Court.
Biden is expected to announce Garland’s appointment on Thursday, along with other senior leaders of the department, including former homeland security adviser Lisa Monaco as deputy attorney general and former Justice Department civil rights chief Vanita Gupta as associate attorney general.

BEIJING (AP) — China’s government has called on Indonesia to treat a group of detained Chinese sailors fairly but gave no indication what their oil tanker was doing when it was found at sea transferring fuel from an Iranian ship. The Iranian-flagged MT Horse and Panamanian-flagged MT Freya are suspected of illegally transferring fuel at sea, shutting off their identification systems and other offenses. Indonesia says 36 Iranian and 25 Chinese crew members were detained. Iran has sold oil on the black market since then-President Donald Trump imposed sanctions in 2018 and threatened to penalize countries that bought Iranian crude. Iranian oil tankers turn off tracking equipment to conceal their destinations. China says Indonesian authorities confirmed the crew members are in good condition.

LAGRANGE, Ind. (AP) — Peace, love — and LaGrange. LaGrange County in Indiana has repealed a 1971 law that was intended at blocking huge gatherings like the 1969 Woodstock music festival in New York state. County commissioner Dennis Kratz calls it the LaGrange “anti-hippie ordinance.” The ordinance regulated large gatherings that lasted more than 12 hours and involved more than 500 people. The law was recently dropped as part of an effort to repeal LaGrange County ordinances that have no practical use but have been on the books for as long as 100 years. County attorney Kurt Bachman’s research lasted three years.

Ultra-Orthodox unrest threatens Netanyahu re-election hopes

JERUSALEM (AP) — As he seeks reelection, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has turned to a straightforward strategy: Count on the rock-solid support of his ultra-Orthodox political allies and stamp out the coronavirus pandemic with one of the world’s most aggressive vaccination campaigns. But with ultra-Orthodox communities openly flouting safety guidelines and violently clashing with police trying to enforce them, this marriage of convenience is turning into a burden. Less than two months before elections, Netanyahu’s political partners are undermining his war against the coronavirus. The clashes have also sparked a public backlash that threatens him at the ballot box.

NICOSIA, Cyprus (AP) — Cyprus’ health minister says a steady decrease in new coronavirus infections three weeks into a nationwide lockdown is allowing for the start of the gradual, targeted lifting of closures and restrictions. The minister said Wednesday that the first places to reopen as of Feb. 1 will be hair and beauty salons followed a week later by retail stores, shopping malls and elementary schools. Students in their final year of high school will also go back to classes on Feb. 8. The health minister said twice-a-day excursions requiring text message approval remain in effect for now because authorities want to avoid “hasty, high-risk actions” that would undermine efforts for a speedy return to normality.

Nikola Vucevic had 28 points and eight rebounds for Orlando. Evan Fournier added 24 points in his return to the lineup after missing nine games with lower back spasms. Minnesota led by 20 before the Magic slowly chipped away in the second half. Jarred Vanderbilt missed a pair of free throws with a chance to ice the game for the Timberwolves. D’Angelo Russell scored 19 points for the short-handed Wolves, who were without Karl-Anthony Towns, Ricky Rubio and Juancho Hernangomez as part of the NBA’s health and safety protocols.

TRIPOLI, Lebanon (AP) — Lebanon’s state news agency says violent confrontations between protesters and security forces in northern Lebanon have left a 30-year-old man dead and more than 220 people injured. The clashes took place after frustrations boiled over amid deteriorating living conditions and strict coronavirus lockdown measures. The violence in Tripoli, Lebanon’s second largest city and the most impoverished, marked a serious escalation in protests that began Monday and continued for three straight days into Wednesday night. Dozens of young men have been taking part in the nightly protests throwing rocks at security forces and in some cases torching vehicles.

NEW YORK (AP) — Declaring “God is on your side,” a Roman Catholic cardinal, an archbishop and six other U.S. bishops are declaring their support for LGBT youth and denouncing the bullying often directed at them. It comes in a statement released by the Tyler Clementi Foundation, named for the Rutgers University student who took his own life in 2010 after being targeted by online harassment. Among those signing the statement are Cardinal Joseph Tobin, the archbishop of Newark, New Jersey, and Archbishop John Wester of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Catholic teaching holds that LGBT people should be respected, loved and not discriminated against, but considers homosexual activity “intrinsically disordered.”

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s pandemic-hit economy shrank 8.5% in 2020. It was the largest single-year drop since 1932 and the second consecutive year of economic contraction. Mexico’s national statistics agency said Friday Mexico’s gross domestic product grew 3.1% in the final three months of the year. Growth in the second half of 2020 allowed Mexico to beat projections earlier in the year of a double-digit contraction. The second trimester of the year when the pandemic took hold and much economic activity was frozen saw a contraction of 18.7% compared to the same period a year earlier.

Turkey seeks arrest of judges, prosecutors over coup ties

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkish state media say authorities have issued arrest warrants for 44 judges and prosecutors suspected of links to the group Ankara blames for a 2016 coup attempt. The Anadolu news agency, citing a statement from the Ankara Chief Prosecutor’s Office, reported Friday that most of the suspects are believed to have risen to their judicial positions after benefiting from a leak of professional exam questions in 2011. Tens of thousands of public employees, including members of the judiciary, police and military, were fired in the wake of the failed putsch. Critics say the government has used the coup attempt to target a wide range of opponents.

"ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkish state media say authorities have issued arrest warrants for 44 judges and prosecutors suspected of links to the group Ankara blames for a 2016 coup attempt. The Anadolu news agency, citing a statement from the Ankara Chief Prosecutor’s Office, reported Friday that most of the suspects are believed to have risen to their judicial positions after benefiting from a leak of professional exam questions in 2011. Tens of thousands of public employees, including members of the judiciary, police and military, were fired in the wake of the failed putsch. Critics say the government has used the coup attempt to target a wide range of opponents.",

WASHINGTON (AP) — The reaction from members of Congress, local lawmakers and neighborhood residents was swift and emphatically negative when the Capitol police force’s acting chief said permanent fences around the Capitol complex should be part of the “vast improvements” in security needed to protect the building and the lawmakers who work inside. It’s a sad fact of life in the nation’s capital that security measures are seldom temporary. But a Virginia Tech architect says it’s possible to address security concerns and make places more welcoming to the public.

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — A close ally of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro says he’s hopeful the Biden administration will roll back a “cruel” sanctions policy and open the door to diplomacy. Jorge Rodríguez’s comments Friday came in his first interview since taking the helm of Venezuela’s National Assembly. The new congress controlled by Maduro’s socialist party came over strong protests from the U.S., European Union and Maduro’s opponents. But Rodríguez says dialogue could lead to the reopening of the U.S. Embassy and the release of several jailed American citizens. He says Venezuela is eager to turn the page after four years of punishing attacks by the Trump administration.

QUETTA, Pakistan (AP) — Hundreds of minority Shiites have blocked a key highway on the outskirts the southwestern Pakistani city of Quetta for a second straight day to protest the killing of 11 coal miners by the Islamic State group. The miners, members of the country’s minority Shiite Hazara community, were abducted by IS militants, taken to a nearby mountain and shot the previous day. Six died at the scene and five, critically wounded, died on the way to hospital. The protesters brought the coffins with the miners’ bodies to the Quetta highway on Monday, insisting they will not be buried as is Islamic tradition until authorities arrest the killers.

WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — Vice President-elect Kamala Harris will resign her Senate seat on Monday, two days before she and President-elect Joe Biden are inaugurated. Aides to the California Democrat confirm the timing and say Gov. Gavin Newsom is aware of her decision. That clears the way for Newsom to appoint fellow Democrat Alex Padilla, now California’s secretary of state, to serve the final two years of Harris’ term. Padilla will be the first Latino senator from California, where about 40% of residents are Hispanic. Harris will give no farewell Senate floor speech. The Senate isn’t scheduled to reconvene until Tuesday, the eve of Inauguration Day.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — The Green Bay Packers are making about 6,000 tickets available to season-ticket holders for their divisional playoff game, which will mark the first time they will have paying spectators at home this season. Seats will be arranged in socially distanced pods of two, four and six tickets throughout Lambeau Field. They’ll be available to season-ticker holders who didn’t opt out of the opportunity to purchase tickets this season. The Packers hadn’t allowed any spectators for their first four regular-season home games. In late November, they made seating available to team employees and their immediate family members to test out Lambeau Field safety protocols. The last two home games also featured frontline workers who were invited to attend.

WASHINGTON (AP) — As many as 15,000 National Guard members are preparing to leave Washington, D.C., and head home now that the inauguration of President Joe Biden is over. Enforcement agencies say the inaugural went off with only a handful of minor arrests and incidents. The National Guard Bureau said Thursday that of the nearly 26,000 Guard troops deployed to D.C. for the inaugural, just 10,600 remained on duty. The bureau says the Guard is helping states with coordination and the logistics so troops can get home. Guard forces were scattered around the D.C., helping to secure the Capitol, monuments, Metro entrances and the perimeter of central D.C., which was largely locked down.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is urging supporters to “go home” but is also keeping up false attacks about the presidential election. Trump released the video after protesters stormed the Capitol on Wednesday as lawmakers convened for an extraordinary joint session to confirm the Electoral College results and President-elect Joe Biden’s victory. Trump opened his video, saying, “I know your pain. I know your hurt. But you have to go home now.” He also went on to call the supporters “very special.” Republican lawmakers and previous administration officials had begged Trump to give a statement to his supporters to quell the violence.

The duo astonished millions with their extraordinary magic tricks until Horn was critically injured in 2003 by one of the act’s famed white tigers.

Yet Trump will try to go on offense in his last 10 days, with no plans of resigning. Instead, Trump is planning to lash out against the companies that have now denied him his Twitter and Facebook bullhorns. And aides hope he will spend his last days trying to trumpet his policy accomplishments, beginning with a trip Tuesday, to Alamo, Texas.

ATLANTA (AP) — Former President Jimmy Carter and former first lady Rosalynn Carter will not attend President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration. It marks the first time the couple, 96 and 93, will have missed the ceremonies since Carter was sworn in as the 39th president in 1977. A spokeswoman at The Carter Center in Atlanta says the Carters have sent Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris their “best wishes” and “look forward to a successful administration.” Jimmy Carter, a Democrat, and his wife have spent the coronavirus pandemic mostly at their home in Plains, Georgia, where both were raised and where they returned after leaving the White House in 1981.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer has formed a committee to begin raising money for a possible run for governor. In an announcement on Twitter, the moderate Republican says the establishment of the committee represents “the first step in turning around California.” The move comes as supporters of a possible recall election aimed at Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom continue gathering petition signatures needed to qualify for the ballot. Faulconer served two terms as mayor in the Democratic-leaning city. He earlier urged voters to sign the recall petitions and turn Newsom out, saying jobs are fleeing the state while the homeless population soars.

NEW YORK (AP) — Two days after thousands of his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol, President Donald Trump sits at the most isolated moment of his presidency. His allies across Washington have begun to desert him, two Cabinet members and at least a half dozen aides have resigned, and a handful of congressional Republicans are openly considering whether he should be forced out before his scheduled Jan. 20 departure. They all blame Trump for inciting this week’s violent insurrection that killed at least five people — including a police officer — and desecrated the ultimate symbol of American democracy. There is a growing sense that the disgraced president is forever tarnished.

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece’s center-right government has imposed a week-long ban on public protests attended by more than 100 people, angering left-wing political opponents. The decision announced by the police Tuesday as part of a campaign to contain the pandemic carries fines of up to 3,000 euros ($3,650) for individuals involved in organizing the rallies and follows a series of student protests, some of which have turned violent. The protest ban ends Feb. 1.

Health experts are debating what to tell study volunteers who got a dummy shot instead of a COVID-19 vaccine. Should they be offered the real thing now? Others warn that giving them that option could hurt the long-term results of the studies. About half of study participants got two doses of an experimental vaccine. The others got dummy shots of salt water for comparison. The studies for the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines were intended to last two years. But with the ongoing epidemic, the companies are considering options for those who didn’t get the vaccine in the studies.

ISTANBUL (AP) — Turkish police have clashed with hundreds of students protesting President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s appointment of a figure with ties to his ruling party as rector to one of Turkey’s most prestigious universities. The students marched to Bogazici University’s campus on Monday to denounce the appointment of Melih Bulu, a member of the ruling Justice and Development Party who once stood as a candidate in parliamentary elections. The students regard the appointment as a move by Erdogan to curtail academic freedoms, and are demanding the right for the university to elect its own rector.

NEW YORK (AP) — New York City’s main bus terminal could be in for a major overhaul after long being ridiculed for leaky ceilings, dirty bathrooms and frequent delays. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey unveiled a plan Thursday to rebuild and expand the embattled midtown Manhattan bus terminal. The new station would be build on top of the existing one. It would have sleek, glass-walled entrances and added infrastructure to accommodate more buses. Ramps that stretch across several blocks would be moved and a storage building would be built to keep empty buses off the streets. Construction could begin in 2024 and cost up to $10 billion.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld a federal judge’s ruling that halted a Trump administration policy that gave state and local governments the right to refuse to resettle refugees. The three-judge panel said Friday that President Donald Trump’s executive order that required both state and local entities to give their consent before allowing refugees to be placed in their areas would undermine the 1980 Refugee Act. That law set by Congress was designed to allow resettlement agencies to find the best place for a person to thrive while working with local and state officials.

KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) - A Wisconsin judge has modified bail conditions for an 18-year-old Illinois teen charged with fatally shooting two people during a protest in southeastern Wisconsin.
Kyle Rittenhouse was 17 at the time of the Aug. 25 shooting in Kenosha. He faces multiple counts and is free on $2 million bail.
A judge ruled Friday that Rittenhouse can't associate with known white supremacists. He is also barred from possessing and consuming alcohol and from having firearms. Prosecutors made the request after Rittenhouse was seen at a Wisconsin bar. Prosecutors say he and others displayed a hand gesture known to be used by white supremacists

HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) — Zimbabwe, battling a spike in new COVID-19 cases, has banned families from transporting their dead relatives between cities, as part of new measures stop traditional funeral rites that are believed to be increasing the spread of the disease. The announcement stops the custom where families take the dead to their areas of birth for ceremonies and burial. Police have also banned public viewing of bodies and the tradition of having a corpse stay overnight in the family’s home before burial. Zimbabwe, like many other African countries, initially recorded low numbers of COVID-19 but has recently experienced a spike in cases. There are fears that a new, more infectious variant arrived from South Africa.

"HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) — Zimbabwe, battling a spike in new COVID-19 cases, has banned families from transporting their dead relatives between cities, as part of new measures stop traditional funeral rites that are believed to be increasing the spread of the disease. The announcement stops the custom where families take the dead to their areas of birth for ceremonies and burial. Police have also banned public viewing of bodies and the tradition of having a corpse stay overnight in the family’s home before burial. Zimbabwe, like many other African countries, initially recorded low numbers of COVID-19 but has recently experienced a spike in cases. There are fears that a new, more infectious variant arrived from South Africa.",

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — Indonesia’s Food and Drug Authority has authorized emergency use of the COVID-19 vaccine produced by China-based Sinovac Biotech Ltd. Monday’s announcement comes after Indonesian officials reviewed Phase III clinical trial data released by Brazil, Turkey and Indonesia. Indonesia has also conducted Phase III clinical trials of the vaccine, but with fewer people. Last week, Indonesia’s highest Muslim clerical body declared the vaccine halal. President Joko Widodo is expected to receive the first dose of the vaccine later this week, with healthcare workers and other civil servants receiving it in the coming weeks.

LONDON (AP) — The crisis facing Britain this winter is depressingly familiar: stay-at-home orders and empty streets. Hospitals overflowing. A daily toll of many hundreds of coronavirus deaths. The U.K. is the epicenter of Europe’s COVID-19 outbreak once more, and Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservative government is facing questions, and anger, as people demand to know how the country has ended up here — again. In the past 10 months, almost 3 million people in the U.K. have tested positive for coronavirus and 81,000 have died. Johnson has defended his record, but critics say his government’s slow response as the new respiratory virus emerged from China was the first in a string of lethal mistakes.

Twitter removes Trump's video, locks his account for 12 hours

WASHINGTON (WQOW) - In what has already been one of the most historic days in American history, social media giant Twitter has locked the account of one of its most predominant users - who also happens to be the president of the United States.
In the midst of chaos at the Capitol in Washington, President Trump tweeted a video about a minute long where he once again claimed the election was stolen from him while telling rioters to go home.
The tweet was almost immediately flagged by Twitter with a message saying "This claim of election fraud is disputed and this tweet can't be replied to, retweeted or liked due to a risk of violence."
A few hours later, Twitter's safety account tweeted that the company was requiring the removal of three of the president's tweets. Twitter went on to say Trump's account was being locked for 12 hours and that future violations would result in permanent suspension of his account.
This means that the account of @realDonaldTrump will be locked for 12 hours following the removal of these Tweets. If the Tweets are not removed, the account will remain locked. — Twitter Safety (@TwitterSafety) January 7, 2021

ORANGE, Calif. (AP) — The United States topped 4,000 daily deaths from the coronavirus for the first time. That breaks a record set just the day before.

The U.S. had nearly 275,000 new coronavirus cases as well. The numbers are another reminder of the worsening situation following travel for holidays and family gatherings, along with more time indoors during the winter months.

A final EPA rollback under Trump curbs use of health studies

The Trump administration has completed action on one of its biggest remaining rollbacks of public health and environmental rules. Environmental Protection Agency administrator Andrew Wheeler has wrapped up what he calls a transparency rule. The change could bar the agency from considering the findings of public-health studies unless the studies’ raw data is made public. Opponents say that would violate medical confidentiality. Academics, public-health officials and others say the intent is to make future public-health regulation more difficult. Wheeler says the change is in the interest of transparency.

LONDON (AP) — Britain has sparked a post-Brexit spat with the European Union by declining to grant the bloc’s first-ever ambassador to the country full diplomatic status. Joao Vale de Almeida is the 27-nation EU’s envoy to the U.K., which left the bloc last year. But the British government says the EU is an international organization, rather than a country, and has not given Vale de Almeida the full rights accorded to ambassadors, including immunity from taxation and prosecution. The EU says the rest of its 143 delegations around the world have been given full diplomatic status. Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s spokesman, Jamie Davies, said the U.K. Foreign Office “continue(s) to engage with the EU on the long-term arrangements for the EU delegation.”

Organizers of the March for Life are asking their supporters nationwide not to gather in Washington this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic and political unrest. Instead, a small group of invited anti-abortion leaders will march on Jan. 29 in a livestreamed event. Football star Tim Tebow is still scheduled to make a keynote speech at a virtual gala taking place after the downsized march. President Donald Trump last year became the first sitting U.S. president to address the March. This year’s event will take place nine days after the inauguration of Democrat Joe Biden. He is a staunch supporter of abortion rights.

CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s president has met with U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin in Cairo, ahead of Mnuchin’s first visit to Sudan since the end of Khartoum’s pariah status. The office of President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi said in a statement Tuesday the president and Mnuchin discussed mutual and regional issues, including the latest developments in talks with Sudan and Ethiopia over a disputed dam that Ethiopia is building over the Blue Nile River. The three Nile Valley countries met Sunday in the latest push by South Africa, the current chairman of the African Union, which is mediating a deal between Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A New Orleans city council member is taking over as the city’s new district attorney. Jason Williams is set to be sworn in Monday. He faces challenges including a pandemic-related backlog of cases and high expectations from criminal justice reform advocates. Those advocates rallied around his campaign despite his indictment on federal tax charges that Williams says were politically motivated. A trial date is pending. Williams leaves the council after having served since 2014. He takes over an office he sought after fiercely criticizing the hardball tactics of the outgoing incumbent, Leon Cannizzaro. Cannizzaro didn’t seek re-election.

Despite illnesses, California says virus vaccine can be used

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California says it’s OK to immediately begin using a batch of coronavirus vaccine doses after health officials held a safety review because several people fell ill. State epidemiologist Dr. Erica Pan said Wednesday that the review found “no scientific basis” to continue a halt to using a specific batch of the Moderna vaccine. The state urged a pause to its use Sunday after fewer than 10 people in San Diego apparently suffered rare allergic reactions. The all-clear will benefit counties and others struggling to obtain vaccine supplies to meet unprecedented demand in a state with the second-highest COVID-19 death toll in the country behind New York.

Wisconsin DHS secretary-designee Andrea Palm to join Biden administration
| null | null |

(WKOW) -- Wisconsin's top health official is joining the Biden administration, according to Governor Tony Evers.
Department of Health Services Secretary-designee Andrea Palm will be nominated to be Deputy Secretary of the U.S Department of Health and Human Services, Gov. Evers' office confirmed Monday morning.
“Andrea Palm is a public servant through and through—she's been a critical part of our administration and a consummate professional who has done an extraordinary job helping lead our state during an unprecedented public health crisis,” said Gov. Evers. “I know she will continue to serve our country just as she has our state—with empathy, kindness, and tenacity. I wish her our very best as she leaves us to take this new opportunity.”
The governor's office says Palm will leave her post at Wisconsin DHS on January 20, 2021.
Gov. Evers says Karen Timberlake will take over the top spot at Wisconsin DHS. Timberlake was DHS secretary under former Gov. Jim Doyle during the 2009 H1N1 pandemic response.
“Karen Timberlake brings a wealth of experience and knowledge in public health, healthcare, and healthcare systems that will be critical as we continue distributing vaccines quickly in our fight against this virus,” said. Gov. Evers “Our response to this pandemic and our vaccine distribution program will continue under the leadership of Karen and given her expertise and familiarity with the Department, I have no doubts she will be able to hit the ground running.”
Timberlake will officially start at the DHS on January 25, 2021.
“This pandemic has meant unprecedented challenges for our state, but I’m looking forward to returning to the Department of Health Services and serving with Gov. Evers and his administration,” said Timberlake. “Our top priorities at the DHS will continue to be advocating to receive Wisconsin’s fair share of vaccines from the federal government, distributing vaccines out across the state, and getting shots in arms as quickly as possible while we work together to prevent the spread of COVID-19.”
Timberlake was most recently a partner at Michael Best Strategies, LLC, in Wisconsin, advising in areas of public health, healthcare delivery, and healthy community investments as well as business development strategies, according to Gov. Evers' office.

ALBERTVILLE, Ala. (AP) — A Black woman who says she gained new racial awareness after leaving her majority-white hometown in Alabama is now leading protests against a Confederate monument in the city. Unique Morgan Dunston has been leading protests since August in Albertville, where she grew up. Dunston says she didn’t often think about the rebel monument when she was growing up as one of only a few Black people in the city. She says that changed after she went away to college, and she now commutes home for events. Nothing has changed yet, but Dunston says hoping for a time when the community understands.

NEW DELHI (AP) — Leaders of a protest movement have sought to distance themselves from a day of violence when thousands of farmers stormed India’s historic Red Fort. It was the most dramatic moment in two months of demonstrations that have grown into a major challenge of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government. Demonstrators demanding the repeal of new agricultural laws briefly took over of the 17th-century fort, and images broadcast live on television shocked the nation. At least one protester died, and many demonstrators were injured, as were more than 390 police officers. The farmers are demanding the repeal of laws that they say will favor large corporate agriculture and leave smallholders behind. The government insists the laws will benefit farmers.

PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona Republicans on Saturday reelected Kelli Ward as party chair, giving a second term to one of Donald Trump’s most unflinching supporters even after the GOP lost ground in the state last year. Ward’s combative style delights Trump’s strongest supporters but worries longtime GOP insiders who have watched the party turn off crucial voters in the suburbs. She was a prolific promoter of baseless theories of election fraud and filed several lawsuits that were tossed by judges for lack of evidence. A party spokesman says Ward secured a narrow majority on the second ballot.

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says the House will proceed with legislation to impeach President Donald Trump as she pushes the vice president to invoke constitutional authority to force him out. The House action could start as soon as Monday as pressure increases on Trump to step aside. The president is holed up at the White House, increasingly isolated after a mob rioted in the Capitol in support of his false claims of election fraud. A second Republican senator, Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, is calling for Trump to resign. Lawmakers warn of the damage the president can do before Joe Biden is inaugurated Jan. 20.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Lawmakers in both parties and members of President Donald Trump’s own administration have engaged in discussions on removing Trump from power after the insurrection in the Capitol by his supporters. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that if he wasn’t removed, the House may move forward with a second impeachment. The lawmakers and officials are discussing the efforts even though Trump has less than two weeks in office. The talks began Wednesday afternoon as Trump first refused to forcefully condemn the violence and then excused the assault on the Capitol. Senior Trump administration officials are said to be discussing the 25th Amendment, which allows for the forceful removal of Trump from power by his own Cabinet.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Capitol has been transformed into a fortress of impeachment. Where visitors once walked, hundreds of National Guard members are camping out throughout the Capitol and even in the Rotunda, protecting lawmakers still reeling from last week’s violence and preparing for the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden. Florida Rep. Brian Mast says, “It’s as sad as anything can make me in this world.” Along with the signs of fear, there were also signs of gratitude for those protecting the Capitol. A tunnel leading to House office buildings has become a makeshift tribute to members of law enforcement who protected the Capitol during last week’s rioting.

BERLIN (AP) — Germany’s Defense Ministry says U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin told Defense Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer in his first conversation with her since taking up his new post that Germany is “highly valued” as a station for American soldiers. Former President Donald Trump last year ordered the reduction of the U.S. military contingent stationed in Germany by more than 25% and the Pentagon has been studying how that could be done. German officials have hoped that order will be rescinded, and German’s Defense Ministry said Thursday Austin “emphasized that Germany is highly valued as a station and that American soldiers feel very comfortable here.”

UK ramps up vaccine rollout, targets every adult by autumn

LONDON (AP) — Britain’s health secretary says every adult in the country will be offered a COVID-19 vaccine by the autumn as the U.K. ramps up its mass vaccination program amid a huge surge of infections and hospital admissions. More than 600,000 people age 80 and over will begin receiving invitations this week to get the coronavirus jab at new vaccine centers around England. Health Secretary Matt Hancock said Sunday that officials are “on track” to reach its target of inoculating about 15 million people by the middle of February. The U.K. has seen a steep increase in infections and record numbers of COVID-19 patients admitted to hospital.

Armed statehouse protests set tone for US Capitol insurgents

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — When President Trump-supporting insurrectionists stormed the U.S. Capitol in an attempt to overturn the presidential election on Wednesday, the nation was shocked, but not unwarned. A series of dress rehearsals of sorts have played out in statehouses in Michigan, Oregon, Idaho and elsewhere in recent months, with armed protesters forcing their way into buildings. Political science professor Joe Lowndes says there’s a direct relationship between the growing paramilitary activity in state Capitols and what happened Wednesday. Jay Ulfelder with the Carr Center at Harvard Kennedy School says the event at the U.S. Capitol likely helped groups recruit and radicalize new members, and that could mean more armed protests at statehouses.

Evers calls lack of 2nd vaccine doses 'slap in the face'

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Gov. Tony Evers is blasting federal officials for promising to release the remainder of their COVID-19 vaccine stockpile when it apparently had already been exhausted. Evers said Friday that Vice President Mike Pence and U.S. Health Secretary Alex Azar promised governors earlier this week that the Trump administration would release vaccine it was holding in reserve to speed inoculations. But word broke Friday that the reserve was already exhausted when those promises were made. Evers said it’s a “slap in the face” to the people of Wisconsin. Evers has been taking pointed criticism from Republicans over the slow pace of Wisconsin’s vaccine rollout.

BAGHDAD (AP) — A mock funeral procession marked the anniversary of the assassination of Iran’s top general and a senior Iraqi militia leader in a U.S. drone strike that heightened fears of a military escalation in the region. Thousands of mourners joined the march on the highway leading to the Baghdad airport Saturday evening where the strike that killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani and senior Iraqi militia leader Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis took place. Soleimani’s assassination dramatically ratcheted up tensions in the region and brought the U.S. and Iran to the brink of war.

Capitol siege raises security concerns for Biden inaugural

WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration was already going to be scaled back and slightly surreal, with the pandemic wiping out the typical large crowds and Donald Trump poised to become the first commander-in-chief in 152 years to skip his successor’s swearing-in. But after a mob stormed the U.S. Capitol, ransacking the building and triggering chaos that stretched all the way to the Senate floor, questions began to arise about whether having a presidential ceremony on the steps of the same building could also pose a serious security risk. Biden insists that he never felt concerned about his safety or the security of the inauguration, and organizers didn’t consider postponing or moving the event.

Regency Inn owner denies many allegations in lawsuit
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
EAU CLAIRE (WQOW) - A local hotel owner is denying allegations of rampant crime and unsanitary conditions put forward by the city of Eau Claire in a lawsuit filed in December that aims to shut the place down.
The owner of the Regency Inn on Hastings Way says his hotel is his livelihood and his lawyer says some of the city's claims are inaccurate.
In a written complaint, the city lists a slew of allegations against Vidhi Hospitality Inc. and the Regency Inn's owner, Hitesh Patel.
But, he denies many of them.
For example, the city claims that Patel has permitted illegal activities on his property such as illicit drug distribution and human trafficking and says he is otherwise legally responsible for these legal violations under the city code of ordinances.
In his response that was filed with the clerk of circuit court on Thursday, Patel denies that he permitted or is legally responsible for those activities.
As News 18 previously reported, the city attorney's office said over the past two years, the hotel has averaged more than 300 incidents per 100 rooms, but Patel's attorney Tim O'Brien does not believe those numbers are accurate.
"If the police come to the facility, but they enter let's say three different entries because they've found somebody and they charge them with drugs or drug paraphernalia and something else for example, well that shows up as three calls as opposed to one, at least from what we're seeing," O'Brien said.
The complaint also states that under city ordinance, guests are not permitted to stay at motels longer than 30 days.
However, Patel says people who do stay longer than 30 days are often placed at the hotel by social services and governmental agencies and that the city knows and encourages this activity despite the rule.
"Mr. Patel takes this very seriously," O'Brien said. "He's been a good member of the community. He lives here. His child goes to school here. He and his spouse have a house in the community. People who stay there at the hotel, sometimes they wouldn't have anywhere to go if it wasn't for him opening the doors of his hotel."
The city also says many of the hotel's walls have holes, leaks are a common occurrence, and that the overall sanitation of the property "miserably fails" to meet minimum health and safety standards, to which Patel denies.
"Any settlement will have to involve significant changes at the property that would provide the city with assurance that we're not going to have a repeat of the types of problems that we've had over the years there," said Douglas Hoffer, deputy city attorney for Eau Claire.
O'Brien says Patel has spent a lot of money to improve his property including refurbishing rooms, putting in new bathrooms, and redoing the floors.
But O'Brien says some of those projects are on hold while his client figures out what his next steps are.
Hoffer says while they discuss with the Regency on how to find alternative housing for longterm guests, both parties are looking to work this out without going through the whole court process.

Dutch politicians condemn weekend rioting as curfew started

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — Politicians and local leaders have condemned rioters who clashed with police in about 10 towns and cities across the Netherlands on the second night of a coronavirus curfew. Prime Minister Mark Rutte on Monday called the violence unacceptable and added that “this has nothing to do with protesting, this is criminal violence and that’s how we’ll treat it.” Worst hit was Eindhoven, where police clashed with hundreds of rioters who torched a car, threw rocks and fireworks at police, smashed windows and looted a supermarket at the southern city’s railway station. Eindhoven Mayor John Jorritsma said, “My city is crying, and so am I.”

Retired Associated Press correspondent Glenn Adams has died at age 70 after a career in which he chronicled Maine politics and breaking news. Adams’ family says he died Friday of complications after heart surgery at Maine Medical Center. Adams spent 32 years at the AP and covered everything from young peace activist Samantha Smith to a caribou roundup in Newfoundland to a state government shutdown. New England news editor William J. Kole says Adams was “kind, curious, adventurous, energetic and optimistic.” His career began at age 14 when his story about the Philadelphia Phillies was published in what is now the South Jersey Times.

Wiggins takes it to Timberwolves; Warriors win 130-108

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Stephen Curry scored 36 points with seven 3-pointers, Andrew Wiggins took it to his old Timberwolves team for 23 points, and the Golden State Warriors beat Minnesota 130-108 after coach Steve Kerr shook up his starting five. Facing the Timberwolves for the first time since his trade last February, Wiggins showed a steadiness that was missing at times when he played in Minneapolis. He drove the lane for pull-up jumpers, dunked, hit from long range, made three steals, blocked three shots and grabbed all six of his rebounds on the offensive glass. Curry shot 11 for 21 overall and 7 of 12 from deep as the Warriors avoided their first three-game losing streak of the season.

Teen charged in Wisconsin protest shootings has plea hearing Tuesday
| null | null |
wqow.com

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — An Illinois teenager charged in the slayings of two people during street protests in Wisconsin following the police shooting of a Black man was expected to enter a plea in the case Tuesday.
Kyle Rittenhouse, now 18, heads to court just as the city of Kenosha is bracing for a charging decision for the police officer who shot Jacob Blake on Aug. 23.
The shooting, which was captured on bystander video and left Blake paralyzed, sparked sometimes violent unrest and eventually the deadly confrontation between Rittenhouse and several protesters.
There's no word on exactly when a prosecutor will announce whether the officer who shot Blake will be charged, but it's expected anytime.
The hearing is scheduled for 1 p.m. WQOW will carry the hearing on our Facebook page.

BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraq says it has successfully dismantled a mine that was discovered stuck to an oil tanker in the Persian Gulf. Iraq’s military said Saturday in a statement that an investigation has been opened into the incident. No group has claimed responsiblity for planting the mine. The statement came a day after Iraqi confirmed reports by private security firms that a mine had been discovered attached to the side of a tanker that was refueling another vessel. Iraq has not provided further details, but the two security firms said the discovery was likely a limpet mine on the MT Pola, a Liberian-flagged tanker. The discovery came amid heightened tensions between Iran and the U.S. in the final days of President Donald Trump’s administration.

Fire strikes fuel warehouse on Syria-Lebanon border, 7 hurt

BEIRUT (AP) — Lebanon’s army and Red Cross say a massive fire has torn through a warehouse where fuel and gas canisters were stored along the border between Lebanon and Syria. Sunday’s fire caused loud explosions and injured seven people. The warehouse is in the border area of al-Qasr, where the line between the two countries is permeable. The Lebanese army said the explosions occurred away from one of its checkpoints, and none of its members were injured. It was not immediately clear what caused the fire and explosion in the warehouse. Smuggling of fuel and diesel is rampant between Lebanon and Syria, and many suspect the warehouse was used to store contraband.

MONTECITO, Calif. (AP) — The botanical gardens at Lotusland near Santa Barbara, California, offer a meditative retreat outdoors during the coronavirus outbreak. The Japanese Garden there reopened in 2019 after a $6 million, 11-year renovation. Footpaths are lined with Japanese-style vintage lanterns and plants such as azaleas, bamboo, camellias and star magnolias. Trees include cherry blossoms and gingko. An antique Buddha statue along one path serenely holds a floral offering beneath a Japanese maple. Changes in the recent renovation included a new koi pond and viewing deck and handicapped-accessible footpaths and bridges. Lotusland’s gardens were created on a 37-acre estate about 100 miles north of Los Angeles.

HANOI, Vietnam (AP) — Leading members of Vietnam’s ruling Communist Party meet this week to approve future policy and help select the nation’s top leaders amid talk whether the party chief will stay. General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong defied conventional wisdom by winning a second term in 2016 against a favored opponent. Trong has made his name by presiding over economic growth and waging a popular war on corruption. There has been speculation the selection of new leaders is a done deal, but the Vietnamese party is highly secretive and citizens are not even allowed to publicly discuss candidates. Vietnam is one of the handful of the world’s remaining communist single-party states that tolerates no dissent.

PARIS (AP) — A French prosecutor says an alleged organizer of an illegal New Year’s Eve rave that at least 2,500 people attended for more than a day in western France was charged with endangering lives amid a coronavirus curfew and other restrictions. The prosecutor said Monday that the 22-year-old man also faced property damage and drug charges among other offenses, and was placed in custody. Authorities said the suspect acknowledged participating in the organization of the event. Ravers from France and abroad converged on Thursday night on a hangar in Lieuron, in Brittany, to party into the new year. They left on Saturday morning. Police have fined over 1,600 people, including 1,200 for violating virus-related rules and over 200 for drug-related offenses.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — The rival daily newspapers in Nevada’s largest city are trading new broadsides in their yearslong court fight over one of the last remaining joint-operating agreements in the U.S. Attorneys for the Las Vegas Review-Journal and Las Vegas Sun went before a federal magistrate judge Tuesday, arguing pretrial motions in an ongoing antitrust lawsuit. The Review-Journal is accusing Sun Publisher Brian Greenspun of offering to accept a $20 million buyout to quit publishing after the Review-Journal was bought in December 2015 by the family of casino mogul Sheldon Adelson. The Sun is accusing the Review-Journal of concealing from the public and the court that Adelson has operational control of the state’s largest newspaper.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The unprecedented Republican effort to overturn the presidential election is being condemned by an outpouring of current and former GOP officials. They are warning that the effort to sow doubt in Joe Biden’s victory and keep President Donald Trump in office is undermining Americans’ faith in democracy. Trump has enlisted support from a dozen Republican senators and up to 100 House Republicans to challenge the Electoral College vote. Congress is set to convene Wednesday in a joint session to confirm President-elect Joe Biden’s 306-232 win. But a bipartisan group of 10 senators is criticizing the effort, saying that “the 2020 election is over.”

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Police say a group of about 150 protesters carrying anti-Biden and anti-police signs are marching in Portland, Oregon, streets and have damaged the headquarters of the Democratic Party of Oregon. The group smashed windows and spray-painted anarchist symbols Wednesday at the political party building. Police say it was one of at least four groups planning to gather in the city on Inauguration Day. Police said on Twitter that officers on bicycles had entered the crowd to contact someone with a weapon. Police say the crowd swarmed the officers and threw objects at the officers, who used a smoke canister to get away.

SpaceX Starlink pilot program being developed in Eau Claire County
| null | null |

EAU CLAIRE COUNTY (WQOW)- Eau Claire County officials are working with the nation's largest private space transportation company in an effort to improve broadband connection in our local communities.
The county broadband committee is planning a pilot program with SpaceX to test the company's Starlink internet service in the county's southeast region and parts of Jackson and Trempealeau counties.
Starlink uses low-orbiting satellites that will look to provide better internet connection and eliminate weather-related interruptions, especially in rural areas.
"Over our history, we've had phone service, we've had DSL and different technologies that have rolled out," said Lynn Thompson, president & CEO of Eau Claire Energy Cooperative and member of the broadband committee. "This is a new technology that could provide an economical answer to people who otherwise would not be able to access internet with a fiber connection or a cable connection in very rural parts of our county."
Estimated costs for the project are $85,000, with a portion being covered by a grant from the WEDC and another by community fundraising. The county plans to cover up to $30,000 of the costs as well.
The committee plans to select anywhere from 30-50 participants to participate under specific criteria, including a financial need, and a need for the service such as remote learning or telecommunicating. Officials hope to begin the process in the coming weeks.

AMSTERDAM (AP) — The European Union’s medicines agency is meeting to consider giving the green light for Moderna Inc.’s COVID-19 vaccine to be used in the 27-nation bloc. Approval would make it the second shot for the EU after the vaccine developed by Pfizer and BioNTech. The meeting Wednesday of the European Medicines Agency’s human medicines committee comes amid high rates of infections in many EU countries and criticism of the slow pace of vaccinations across the region of some 450 million people. Ahead of the meeting on the Moderna vaccine, the agency said in a tweet that its experts were “working hard to clarify all outstanding issues with the company.” It did not elaborate.

Some COVID-19 vaccination sites in New York City are canceling or postponing shots or stopped making new appointments amid vaccine shortages around the U.S. that President Joe Biden has vowed to turn around. Smaller-than-expected vaccine deliveries from the federal government have caused frustration and confusion and limited states’ ability to attack the outbreak that has killed over 400,000 Americans. Over the past few days, authorities in California, Ohio, West Virginia, Florida and Hawaii warned that their supplies were running out.

The campaign to vanquish the coronavirus is picking up speed. Britain has begun dispensing the second vaccine in its arsenal. And India, the world’s second-most populous country, has authorized its first shots. In the U.S., meanwhile, government officials say that the pace of vaccinations has accelerated markedly after a disappointingly slow start. Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious-disease expert, said over the weekend that 1.5 million shots were dispensed over 72 hours, bringing the running total to about 4 million.

DENPASAR, Indonesia (AP) — An American graphic designer is being deported from the Indonesian resort island of Bali over her viral tweets that celebrated it as a low-cost, queer-friendly place for foreigners to live. Kristen Antoinette Gray arrived in Bali in January 2020 and wound up staying through the coronavirus pandemic. On Twitter, she enthused about living an “elevated lifestyle” in Bali that cost much less than living in Los Angeles. Authorities in Bali said Gray is suspected of conducting business activities in Bali because she tweeted about her e-book and offered consultant services on Bali tourism. Gray said she was not guilty and that she was being deported because she is LGBT.

WASHINGTON (AP) — At the moment President-elect Joe Biden takes the oath of office on Wednesday, the National Archives and Records Administration will take custody of Donald Trump’s presidential records. The public won’t see Trump’s electronic and paper records for years, but there’s long been concern that they won’t be complete, leaving a hole in the history of one of America’s most tumultuous presidencies. And concerns have been raised about employees using private email and messaging apps and about record-keeping irregularities, and the president has been known to rip up documents. Trump’s contesting of the election delayed the task of physically moving his records, so the White House will miss the Jan. 20 deadline.

Germany's virus death toll hits over 50,000
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
BERLIN — More than 50,000 people have died after contracting the coronavirus in Germany, a number that has risen swiftly over recent weeks even as infection figures are finally beginning to fall.
The country’s disease control center, the Robert Koch Institute, said Friday that another 859 deaths were recorded over the past 24 hours, taking the total since the start of the pandemic to 50,642.
Germany had a relatively small number of deaths in the pandemic’s first phase, but that has changed this winter. Hundreds of deaths, sometimes more than 1,000, have been reported daily in the country of 83 million people. Germany hit the 40,000 mark on Jan. 10.
Among other European countries, the U.K., Italy, France and Spain, all of which have smaller populations, still have higher death tolls.
And Germany, which is currently in a lockdown, is now seeing infections drop after they peaked in December. The Robert Koch Institute reported 17,862 new cases Friday — down from 22,368 a week ago. That brought Germany’s total so far to a bit over 2.1 million.
The number of new cases per 100,000 residents over seven days stood at 115.3, after reaching nearly 200 a month ago. It’s still well above the government’s target of a maximum 50. (edited)

— New Chinese film praises Wuhan ahead of lockdown anniversary
— Brazil awaits vaccine cargo from India amid supply concerns
— The leader of Canada’s most populous province says he isn’t buying the excuse from Pfizer about why Pfizer deferred all its COVID-19 vaccine deliveries to Canada next week.
— Public health experts are blaming COVID-19 vaccine shortages around the U.S. in part on the Trump administration’s push to get states to vastly expand their vaccination drives to reach the nation’s estimated 54 million people age 65 and over.
— President Joe Biden’s top adviser on the pandemic says the United States will again fund the World Health Organization and join its consortium aimed at sharing coronavirus vaccines fairly around the globe. ___

HERE’S WHAT ELSE IS HAPPENING:
BEIJING — Shanghai has imposed lockdowns on two of China’s best-known hospitals after they were linked to new coronavirus cases.
Outpatient services have been suspended at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center and Renji Hospital, both of which have been cordoned off along with some surrounding residential communities.
China now finds itself on guard against new clusters of coronavirus infections that have been emerging largely in the country’s frigid north.
Lockdowns have been imposed in parts of Beijing and other cities following outbreaks, schools are letting out early and citizens have been told to stay home for next month’s Lunar New Year holiday.
China hopes to vaccinate 50 million people against the virus by the middle of February.

SEOUL, South Korea — South Korea is reporting its smallest daily increase in coronavirus infections in two months as officials express cautious hope that the country is beginning to wiggle out from its worst wave of the pandemic.
The 346 new cases reported Friday brought the national caseload to 74,262. There have been 1,328 deaths related to COVID-19.
Health authorities have clamped down on private social gatherings since late December, including setting fines for restaurants if they accept groups of five or more people. The tougher rules were imposed to slow a virus surge that erased months of hard-won gains. The 1,241 infections reported on Christmas Day were the country’s largest 24-hour jump of the pandemic.
Daily infections have slowed to around 400 to 600 in recent weeks.
___
MEXICO CITY — Mexico has posted new one-day highs for the pandemic, with 22,339 newly confirmed coronavirus infections and 1,803 deaths related to COVID-19.
Mexico has recorded over 1.71 million confirmed coronavirus cases and over 146,000 test-confirmed deaths related to COVID-19 since the pandemic began. However, official estimates suggest the real death toll is closer to 195,000.
Officials also said Thursday that hospitals remained at 89% capacity in Mexico City, which is the current center of the pandemic in Mexico.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida’s top health officer says coronavirus vaccinations will be restricted for only state residents amid “extremely limited” supplies of vaccines.
In a two-page advisory, state Surgeon General Scott Rivkees advises counties to prioritize available doses to Florida residents, including so-called snowbirds who reside in the state part-time. The advisory says people seeking vaccination must provide a driver’s license or other document, such as rental leases and utility bills.
Florida was one of the first states to open vaccine eligibility to members of the general public over age 65.
So far, 41,000 of the 1.2 million people who have been vaccinated in the state were marked as out-of-state residents, but the data makes no distinction between visitors and “snowbirds.”
___
FRANKFORT, Ky. — Kentucky has reported its highest daily number of COVID-19 deaths as the governor presses the federal government to provide the state with more vaccine.
Gov. Andy Beshear said Thursday the state recorded 58 more coronavirus-related deaths, pushing the total for the pandemic above 3,300. He called it a “staggering” loss and said a U.S. flag will be placed on the statehouse grounds Friday for each Kentuckian who has died from the virus.
As Kentucky has ramped up its vaccination campaign, demand has outpaced supply. That prompted Beshear this week to ask the federal government to double the state’s vaccine allotment. He said Thursday: “You give it to us, we can get it in people’s arms.”

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah Gov. Spencer Cox says the federal government has given too much coronavirus vaccine to pharmacies, which are struggling to use all their doses quickly.
Cox has mandated that vaccine doses be used within seven days. He said Thursday that public health departments are nearly meeting that benchmark but pharmacies partnered with the federal government are far behind.
The governor says that “this is a problem across the country.”
One factor is billing private insurance, which will cover part of the cost of a vaccine but going through the process takes longer.

JACKSON, Miss. — Mississippi has opened a drive-thru site for coronavirus vaccinations in the state capital, which officials hope will make shots more accessible to African-Americans, who have received the vaccine in much smaller numbers than whites.
The operation that opened Thursday at Smith-Wills Stadium is the first in the capital, and 19th drive-thru for the state. The Jackson area is the state’s most populous and has a Black majority.
The centers offer shots for health care workers, people 65 and older, and people who are at least 16 and have health conditions that might make them more vulnerable to the virus. Vaccinations are also continuing at long-term care facilities.
The state health department says only 15% of vaccinations administered so far in Mississippi have been to Black residents, with around 70% going to white residents.
___
SEATTLE — Amazon says it will host a one-day vaccination drive in Seattle this weekend looking to inoculate as many as 2,000 people.
The tech giant said Thursday that it is partnering with Virginia Mason Medical Center for the effort Sunday.
Anyone eligible for the vaccine, including those over 65 years old and front-line health care workers, will be able to attend the pop-up clinic at Amazon’s South Lake Union campus after registering for a vaccine wait list on Virginia Mason’s website. Virginia Mason will provide the vaccine and volunteers and schedule people for their second shots before they leave.
Meanwhile, Washington state health officials say they are moving ahead with plans to open four mass vaccination sites next week despite logistical concerns that include questions about vaccine supply.
___
ALLENTOWN, Pa. — Some of Pennsylvania’s largest health systems are warning people that there isn’t enough coronavirus vaccine in the state to meet surging demand.
Pennsylvania expanded eligibility for the vaccine this week to include people age 65 and over as well as younger people with serious health conditions that put them at higher risk. The state had previously been directing the vaccine to health care workers and residents of long-term care facilities.
Some 3.5 million people are now eligible to receive one of the two approved vaccines. But hospital officials said Thursday that the state’s weekly allotments are still extremely limited and there is no indication when the vaccine might begin arriving in sufficient quantity to allow them to increase the number of people getting shots.
___
JACKSON, Miss. — Mississippi legislators are changing some of their work habits to try to avoid a repeat of last year’s coronavirus outbreak at the state Capitol when about four dozen lawmakers tested positive and a few were hospitalized.
In normal times, it’s common for lobbyists, journalists and state agency leaders to sit or stand shoulder to shoulder to watch legislators work during committee meetings. The goal now is to put more space between people.
Small rooms that crowd easily are now off-limits. And House and Senate leaders said Thursday that committees will conduct some business online starting next week.
Legislators will able to debate and vote on bills through a meeting app commonly used by businesses.
___
WASHINGTON — Dr. Anthony Fauci is back in the White House briefing room.
Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious disease expert, was tasked by President Joe Biden to give an update on the coronavirus pandemic after largely being sidelined in recent months by former president Donald Trump.
Fauci said the new administration would “be completely open and honest” in dealing with the pandemic and, in an implicit rebuke to the Trump administration, said everything now would be “based on science and evidence.”
He also said in the Biden administration, the rule would be “if you don’t know the answer, don’t guess.”
Fauci, who repeatedly attacked by Trump for breaking with his rosy view of the pandemic, provided an update on the new, more contagious strains of the virus, which has now claimed the lives of more than 400,000 Americans.

"BERLIN — More than 50,000 people have died after contracting the coronavirus in Germany, a number that has risen swiftly over recent weeks even as infection figures are finally beginning to fall.\nThe country’s disease control center, the Robert Koch Institute, said Friday that another 859 deaths were recorded over the past 24 hours, taking the total since the start of the pandemic to 50,642.\nGermany had a relatively small number of deaths in the pandemic’s first phase, but that has changed this winter. Hundreds of deaths, sometimes more than 1,000, have been reported daily in the country of 83 million people. Germany hit the 40,000 mark on Jan. 10.\nAmong other European countries, the U.K., Italy, France and Spain, all of which have smaller populations, still have higher death tolls.\nAnd Germany, which is currently in a lockdown, is now seeing infections drop after they peaked in December. The Robert Koch Institute reported 17,862 new cases Friday — down from 22,368 a week ago. That brought Germany’s total so far to a bit over 2.1 million.\nThe number of new cases per 100,000 residents over seven days stood at 115.3, after reaching nearly 200 a month ago. It’s still well above the government’s target of a maximum 50. (edited)\n___\nTHE VIRUS OUTBREAK:\n— Lucky few hit COVID-19 vaccine jackpot for rare extra doses\n— New Chinese film praises Wuhan ahead of lockdown anniversary\n— Brazil awaits vaccine cargo from India amid supply concerns\n— The leader of Canada’s most populous province says he isn’t buying the excuse from Pfizer about why Pfizer deferred all its COVID-19 vaccine deliveries to Canada next week.\n— Public health experts are blaming COVID-19 vaccine shortages around the U.S. in part on the Trump administration’s push to get states to vastly expand their vaccination drives to reach the nation’s estimated 54 million people age 65 and over.\n— President Joe Biden’s top adviser on the pandemic says the United States will again fund the World Health Organization and join its consortium aimed at sharing coronavirus vaccines fairly around the globe. ___\nFollow all of AP’s pandemic coverage at https://apnews.com/hub/coronavirus-pandemic, https://apnews.com/hub/coronavirus-vaccine and https://apnews.com/UnderstandingtheOutbreak\n___\nHERE’S WHAT ELSE IS HAPPENING:\nBEIJING — Shanghai has imposed lockdowns on two of China’s best-known hospitals after they were linked to new coronavirus cases.\nOutpatient services have been suspended at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center and Renji Hospital, both of which have been cordoned off along with some surrounding residential communities.\nChina now finds itself on guard against new clusters of coronavirus infections that have been emerging largely in the country’s frigid north.\nLockdowns have been imposed in parts of Beijing and other cities following outbreaks, schools are letting out early and citizens have been told to stay home for next month’s Lunar New Year holiday.\nChina hopes to vaccinate 50 million people against the virus by the middle of February.\n___\nSEOUL, South Korea — South Korea is reporting its smallest daily increase in coronavirus infections in two months as officials express cautious hope that the country is beginning to wiggle out from its worst wave of the pandemic.\nThe 346 new cases reported Friday brought the national caseload to 74,262. There have been 1,328 deaths related to COVID-19.\nHealth authorities have clamped down on private social gatherings since late December, including setting fines for restaurants if they accept groups of five or more people. The tougher rules were imposed to slow a virus surge that erased months of hard-won gains. The 1,241 infections reported on Christmas Day were the country’s largest 24-hour jump of the pandemic.\nDaily infections have slowed to around 400 to 600 in recent weeks.\n___\nMEXICO CITY — Mexico has posted new one-day highs for the pandemic, with 22,339 newly confirmed coronavirus infections and 1,803 deaths related to COVID-19.\nMexico has recorded over 1.71 million confirmed coronavirus cases and over 146,000 test-confirmed deaths related to COVID-19 since the pandemic began. However, official estimates suggest the real death toll is closer to 195,000.\nOfficials also said Thursday that hospitals remained at 89% capacity in Mexico City, which is the current center of the pandemic in Mexico.\n___\nTALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida’s top health officer says coronavirus vaccinations will be restricted for only state residents amid “extremely limited” supplies of vaccines.\nIn a two-page advisory, state Surgeon General Scott Rivkees advises counties to prioritize available doses to Florida residents, including so-called snowbirds who reside in the state part-time. The advisory says people seeking vaccination must provide a driver’s license or other document, such as rental leases and utility bills.\nFlorida was one of the first states to open vaccine eligibility to members of the general public over age 65.\nSo far, 41,000 of the 1.2 million people who have been vaccinated in the state were marked as out-of-state residents, but the data makes no distinction between visitors and “snowbirds.”\n___\nFRANKFORT, Ky. — Kentucky has reported its highest daily number of COVID-19 deaths as the governor presses the federal government to provide the state with more vaccine.\nGov. Andy Beshear said Thursday the state recorded 58 more coronavirus-related deaths, pushing the total for the pandemic above 3,300. He called it a “staggering” loss and said a U.S. flag will be placed on the statehouse grounds Friday for each Kentuckian who has died from the virus.\nAs Kentucky has ramped up its vaccination campaign, demand has outpaced supply. That prompted Beshear this week to ask the federal government to double the state’s vaccine allotment. He said Thursday: “You give it to us, we can get it in people’s arms.”\n___\nSALT LAKE CITY — Utah Gov.
