    Mayor Eric Adams says he'll minimize NYC violence with 'newer version' of plainclothes officer unit.
    Washington Examiner (Moderate Right) • Factual Grade 82% • 2 min read

    Adams said New York City will "immediately" reinstate a "newer version of modified plainclothes anti-gun unit," a move he had called for when campaigning in his election last year, though some have criticized plainclothes units as an outdated policing practice. No further details about the new plainclothes unit or how it would operate were provided by Adams.
    ...
    The mayor's [statement] comes just after a Harlem shooting on Friday left one 22-year-old NYPD officer, Jason Rivera, dead and another 27-year-old officer, Wilbert Mora, struggling to survive. Adams confirmed in his latest interview that Mora is "still primarily in the same condition."
    ...
    “These crimes did not start during my administration, they have been here for far too long, in many parts of our community,” Adams told the outlet. “I’m going to roll out a real plan this week when I speak to the New York public, and we’re going to go after the underlying reasons you’re seeing crime in our city.”

Should Covid risk now be treated the same as flu risk?

653 votes, 67 comments

Context: Ireland lifts most covid restrictions as Omicron inflection spreads widely.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

Yes - The scientific evidence proves that vaccines are highly effective at preventing severe disease and death. (Flu vaccines aren't as effective.) Risks to healthy children of severe disease and death from COVID are also lower than many other causes that we risk everyday, like driving. Even older vaccinated adults with underlying conditions are less at risk from COVID than they are of flu.


No - I think the risk should be stated in understandable terms. Over the past two years, COVID has not been the sa...
