The CDC estimates that 26 million Americans have gotten sick with flu this season and around people 14,000 have died.

Gen. Ali Mayhoub, spokesman for the Syrian Armed Forces, said in a televised speech that Syrian troops were continuing their ground advances to "eradicate what is left of terrorist groups" in Syria, congratulating the soldiers for the swift advances in "record time."

China Uighurs: Detained for beards, veils and internet browsing
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-51520622
Sadly I don't think we've got any Chinese or Mandarin speaker around here that can tell us what the suspicious document says.

China says Xinjiang has policies that "respect and ensure people's freedom of religious belief". It also insists that what it calls a "vocational training programme in Xinjiang" is "for the purposes of combating terrorism and religious extremism", adding only people who have been convicted of crimes involving terrorism or religious extremism are being "educated" in these centres.

Yeah, who would expect China to admit it's committing such heinous crimes...

French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian predicted the two sides would "rip each other apart" as they strove for advantage in the negotiations.
He also said it would be tough for the UK to achieve its aim of agreeing a free trade deal by the end of the year.

It seems France really wanna make the United Kingdom suffer a lot now that it has left the European Union.  
Don't even think France is trying to exact some sort of historical revenge on the UK.

Diputada propone pedir cuentas a Hacienda por escáneres
Congresswoman proposes hold Hacienda [Our Version of the Treasury] accountable for [malfunctioning] scanners
https://www.crhoy.com/nacionales/diputad...escaneres/
Long time ago the first PAC administration has made a request to China for some customs scanners and the Chinese government gladly accepted it. When they were testing the equipment, Costa Rican authorities noticed they were unable to detect weapons, drugs and anything the like. In few words, they were complete and utter crap! It also explained why some shipments full of drugs had reached Spain and the Netherlands.

The Chinese asked the Costa Rican government, the second PAC administration, for a chance to repair or replace the scanners. Our government had also requested another 3 scanners.The Costa Rican President told everybody that it was no longer necessary, we wouldn't rely on them to detect any illegal products at our customs. Some say that the US government, lead by Trump himself, had "recommended" Costa Rica to implement an American system instead.

Now a Costa Rican congresswoman wants to summon the Hacienda authorities to let them explain this whole mess.

Of course, AfD defends its "right of speech" claiming the accusation is an attack on the freedom of art and satire.

Well, it's darn serious for sure!

Aside from high-level communications, DISA was also drafted to help reform the government security clearance process following digital break-ins at the U.S. Office of Personnel Management in 2014 and 2015 that resulted in the compromise of records belonging to more than 21 million current and former government employees.

Regarding viruses it isn't easy to predict how they'll behave in the next couple of days, weeks or months.

To date, 25 other countries have reported 1,076 cases to the WHO, and while that was very low compared with more than 75,400 inside China, Tedros said: “That may not stay the same for long”.

What Donald Trump gets out of his trip to India
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-51590610
Honestly I don't like to report anything regarding Trump, I can't stand his demeanor even if I share very few of his opinions on very specific topics. Still, I've found some curious comments in the article that changed my mind.

Mr Modi is facing criticism at home and abroad over Kashmir and a controversial law that fast-tracks citizenship to non-Muslim religious minorities from three neighbouring countries.

Curiously they neglected Muslims, I wonder why... Would they do the same against Christians?

But the Indian subcontinent has not figured much in Mr Trump's "America First" agenda. So what's in it for President Trump, who is known to hate long trips, and what does he hope to accomplish in India, when there is no dearth of domestic and international issues at home?

Trump hates long trips!? O_o? Since when do millionaires and billionaires hate them?

Part of the aim is to give American voters a good image to point to when thinking of Mr Trump as he seeks re-election. "The visuals will be used by the Trump campaign to make the case the President is welcomed around the world," says Ms Madan.

What if the world doesn't welcome Trump? Why would Americans care about that? By the way, several Costa Rican politicians hate him, even a former minister of education called him "tusa". O_O

"That he has made America great and respected, especially when some polls have said the respect for the US has gone down on the international stage."

They claim this just when I thought Trump couldn't be spending more time on stage either in the impeachment, the primaries, the international conferences, the coronavirus crisis, the NASCAR race, etc.
