So sad… 30% of Brooklyn Hospital’s employees are infected, and many have died. Let that sink in – 1:3 of whole hospital’s HCW workforce. Good 60 minutes video though. #COVID19 https://t.co/qYByT0gc1s

From Daily Wire:
The British scientific journal Nature apologized for stoking racism by connecting the COVID-19 outbreak to China, where the virus originated.
Nature published an editorial on Tuesday apologizing for making the association against guidelines made by the World Health Organization for reporting on diseases. The journal said that the pandemic’s association with China has led to “untold human costs” against people of Asian descent.
