Elon Musk’s bid for Twitter has prompted questions about his own financial liquidity, and free speech on the platform. While Wall Street is eyeing Musk’s offer, Musk is bringing the entire Twitter board under scrutiny, calling out their online presence and potentially suggesting that the platform’s power rest with shareholders, instead of the board. The World Health Organization maintains that the Covid-19 pandemic is still very much underway, but governments in the U.S. and in China are handling the continued outbreaks very differently. Dr. Kavita Patel, former White House health policy director, unpacks the CDC’s new guidance on Covid safety in the U.S., which emphasizes personal choice over mandates. Plus, in other health news, fried foods are trending up on American menus.
