- Ongoing airstrikes have created a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, crippling the healthcare system and leading to over 53,000 deaths according to Hamas-run health authorities.
Israel's position is unchanged, they want their prisoners released, without a commitment to end the war.— A Hamas official stated this in the context of ongoing ceasefire negotiations.

- In 2024, there were 30,000 fewer drug overdose deaths in the U.S., marking the largest decline in 45 years.
- Despite this drop, annual overdose deaths remain higher than pre-pandemic levels, with overdoses still the leading cause of death among those aged 18 to 44.
- Factors contributing to this reduction include increased access to naloxone, expanded treatment options, and significant financial settlements from opioid lawsuits.
- Experts caution that potential setbacks could arise from federal funding cuts and a shift away from effective strategies currently in place.
We believe that taking a public health approach that seeks to support — not punish — people who use drugs is crucial to ending the overdose crisis.— Dr. Tamara Olt, an Illinois woman whose 16-year-old son died of a heroin overdose in 2012. She is now executive director of Broken No Moore, an advocacy organization focused on substance use disorder.

Summary created with AI assistance · Source: vox.com
- The common advice of one gram of protein per pound of body weight is exaggerated and based on misunderstandings of the science.
- Recommendations for weightlifters should range from 0.54 to 0.73 grams of protein per pound, which is less than often assumed.
- Plant-based proteins can be just as effective for muscle building as animal proteins, and a varied plant-based diet sufficiently meets protein needs.
- The focus on high protein intake may lead to unhealthy diets that promote animal product consumption and exacerbate ecological and ethical issues.
It's baloney. But there's a generation, particularly young men, and now an increasing number of young women, who are absolutely brainwashed by what they hear online.— Stuart Phillips, a professor in the department of kinesiology at McMaster University, discussing the misleading protein recommendations in the online fitness community.

Summary created with AI assistance · Source: reuters.com
- U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reiterated misleading claims about vaccines, including that the measles vaccine contains cells from aborted fetuses.
- These remarks coincide with one of the worst measles outbreaks in the U.S. in 25 years, particularly affecting a Mennonite community in Texas.
- Experts clarify that vaccines do not contain intact fetal cells, although the rubella component originates from a cell line derived from a 1960s abortion.
- Kennedy also raised concerns about the effectiveness of the mumps vaccine, while experts confirm that two doses of the MMR vaccine provide approximately 86% protection.
There are populations in our country, like the Mennonites in Texas, (who) were most afflicted, and they have religious objections to the vaccination, because the MMR vaccine contains a lot of aborted fetus debris and DNA particles, so they don't want to take it.— Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made this statement during a News Nation interview.
