‘Bad news’: Wave of GOP retirements signals battles ahead – The Associated Press

This is not the way Republicans wanted to begin the year.

Missouri’s Roy Blunt on Monday became the fifth Republican senator to announce he will not seek reelection, a retirement wave that portends an ugly campaign season next year and gives Democrats fresh hope in preserving their razor-thin Senate majority.

History suggests Republicans are still well-positioned to reclaim at least one chamber of Congress next year. But officials in both parties agree that the surge of GOP departures will make the Republicans’ challenge more difficult in the Senate.

“Any time you lose an incumbent, it’s bad news,” said Republican strategist Rick Tyler, who briefly worked for failed Missouri Senate candidate Todd Akin nearly a decade ago. “Missouri’s not necessarily a safe state for Republicans. Democrats have won there.”

The 71-year-old Blunt’s exit is a reminder of how the nation’s politics have shifted since the rise of Donald Trump. Blunt and his retiring GOP colleagues from Ohio, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Alabama represent an old guard who fought for conservative policies but sometimes resisted the deeply personal attacks and uneven governance that dominated the Trump era.

Their departures will leave a void likely to be filled by a new generation of Republicans more willing to embrace Trumpism — or by Democrats.

Several Missouri Republicans are expected to seek the nomination to replace Blunt, but none will be more divisive than former Gov. Eric Greitens, who resigned in 2018 amid the fallout of a sex scandal and ethics investigation. Missouri’s Republican base has since rallied behind him, believing he was unfairly prosecuted.

Greitens was considering running for the GOP nomination even before Blunt’s announcement. He is expected to announce his candidacy as soon as Tuesday morning.

Two leading Missouri Democrats, former Sen. Claire McCaskill and 2016 Senate candidate Jason Kander, both said they would not run for the open seat.

Ahead of Greitens’ announcement, some Republicans worried that he could jeopardize the Senate seat if he emerges as the party’s nominee.

Steven Law, a key ally of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and CEO of the Senate Leadership Fund, warned that Republicans may be beginning to repeat the mistakes of 2010, when the GOP lost the Senate majority by embracing flawed far-right candidates.

Law cited Greitens’ looming announcement specifically.

“We have an opportunity to win back a majority,” Law said. “But in 2010, that opportunity was lost on the Senate side because of unelectable candidates who got nominated.”

Back in 2010, tea party favorite Christine O’Donnell beat a longtime GOP congressman in the Delaware Senate primary before losing by a landslide in the general election following reports of personal financial difficulties, questionable use of campaign funds and allegations that she had “dabbled into witchcraft.”

Two years later in Indiana, Richard Mourdock defeated six-term Sen. Richard Lugar in the 2012 GOP primary, but he imploded after a debate in which he said pregnancy resulting from rape “is something that God intended.” In Missouri, Republican nominee Akin lost after he insisted on a local talk show that women’s bodies have ways to avoid pregnancy in cases of “legitimate rape.”

In the decade since Akin’s debacle, Missouri’s politics, like the nation’s, have evolved in a way that gives both parties opportunities.

States like Missouri, Ohio and Iowa, recently considered swing states, are trending away from Democrats. At the same time, previous red states like North Carolina and Georgia are trending away from Republicans.

Missouri hasn’t elected a Democratic senator since McCaskill beat Akin in 2012. Trump carried the state last November by 15 percentage points. Trump carried Ohio, where Republican Sen. Rob Portman will not seek reelection next year, by 8 percentage points. The former president won by the same margin in Iowa, where 87-year-old Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley is considering retirement.

Democrats are expected to be more competitive in North Carolina, where Trump eked out a victory by just 1 percentage point, and in Wisconsin, should Republican Sen. Ron Johnson follow through with a campaign promise not to seek more than two terms.

Democrats have not lost any incumbents to retirement, but they are defending vulnerable incumbents in Georgia and Arizona, among others.

They have no margin for error. Republicans will claim the Senate majority for the last two years of President Joe Biden’s term if they pick up even one additional seat next November.

The party that occupies the White House traditionally suffers significant losses in the first midterm election of a new president. President Barack Obama’s Democratic Party, for example, lost 63 seats in the House and six in the Senate in 2010.

Democrats are hopeful that Trump will become an unwitting ally in 2022. The former Republican president has vowed to play an active role in the midterms, particularly by supporting pro-Trump candidates in primary elections. That leaves little room for well-established Republicans like Blunt who are popular statewide.

“The challenge for Republicans will be the race to the bottom in the Republican primaries,” said Morgan Jackson, a leading Democratic strategist based in North Carolina. “It’s not about what you say, it’s about how loud and angry you say it. That’s a very different view of the world.”

Jackson said “it’s a safe bet” Republicans will win the House majority, but he’s optimistic that Trump’s meddling in Senate primaries will help limit Democrats’ losses.

“Maybe it won’t be a good cycle, but maybe it won’t be a bad cycle,” he said.

J.B. Poersch, who leads the Democratic-allied Senate Majority PAC, noted that Republicans are focused on the nation’s culture wars, while Democrats are in the process of sending billions of dollars to working-class Americans affected by the pandemic. That contrast will help Democrats, he said.

“There is a working-family economic argument that Democrats can still make in the middle of the country, in places like Missouri and Ohio, and keep them competitive,” he said.

Meanwhile, Blunt predicted political success for Republicans in Missouri and beyond during a Monday news conference. He also reflected upon the 2010 election, when Democrats were punished nationwide after embracing Obama’s fiscal stimulus and health care overhaul.

“I think 2022 will be a great year in the country and I think it will be a fine year in this Senate race,” Blunt told reporters. “The Republican Party will be just fine.”

Derek Chauvin trial live: Jurors hear testimony from MMA fighter and teen who recorded video of George Floyd’s death – USA TODAY

MINNEAPOLIS — More witnesses, including a mixed martial arts fighter and the teenager who recorded a video showing the death of George Floyd, took the stand Tuesday in the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin.

Two other witnesses – a 911 dispatcher and a cashier working across the street – testified Monday, and lawyers for the defense and prosecution opened the trial by laying out their case. Here’s what you missed.

Floyd, a Black man, died in police custody on May 25, 2020, after Chauvin, who is white, pinned his knee against Floyd’s neck for more than nine minutes as Floyd cried out “I can’t breathe” more than 20 times. Chauvin is charged with second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter.

Darnella Frazier, the teenager who recorded the infamous video showing the arrest and death of George Floyd, testified Tuesday.
Judge Peter Cahill denied a state motion first thing Tuesday to keep all audio and video of four key witnesses from being made public.
While Cahill said the witnesses, including the now-18-year-old woman who was 17 at the time and filmed the bystander video that went viral, would be allowed to be referred to by first name only, they would not speak or spell their names on camera or audio.
Monday evening, about 200 protesters rallied outside the county building to demand justice.
Police, sheriffs deputies and the National Guard were on high alert, although they maintained a deliberately low-key presence Monday.

Donald Williams takes stand again, becomes emotional in courtroom

Prosecutors called their third witness, Donald Williams, back to testify Tuesday morning after a technical glitch cut his testimony short Monday.

Williams told the court Monday that he was on his way to Cup Foods, where Floyd was arrested, when he encountered Floyd “pleading” for his life. Williams told the court he asked officers to stop the “blood choke,” which is a form of chokehold that renders someone unconscious.

Williams became emotional in the courtroom Tuesday and wiped away tears as he listened to the 911 call he made once officers left the scene. “He just pretty much killed this guy who was not resisting arrest,” Williams said in the call.

Williams told the court Tuesday: “I did call the police on the police because I believed I witnessed a murder.”

In a tense cross examination by lead defense attorney Eric Nelson, Williams acknowledged that he didn’t know that the officers had been dealing with Floyd for 15 minutes before he arrived at the scene. He also conceded he did not know that an ambulance had been summoned to the scene three minutes before he arrived.

Nelson told Williams that he “got angry” and was “threatening police.” Nelson listed off several profanities that Williams called the officers, according to video of the incident.

Government Shutdown: Updates on Where Things Stand – The New York Times

President Trump made a brief stop to lay a wreath at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington.

[Sign up for the Morning Briefing newsletter for a look at what you need to know to begin your day.]

Both sides made offers but no negotiations

On Saturday, Mr. Trump proposed to end the partial government shutdown after Democrats extended a proposal of their own on Friday, having added $1 billion in border spending to their offer. If he got $5.7 billion for a border wall, Mr. Trump said, he would restore for three years the protections known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, and Temporary Protected Status, or T.P.S.

Republicans had hoped his plan would put Democrats in a corner, but Democrats called it a nonstarter, prompting attacks from the president on the House speaker, Nancy Pelosi. And her relationship with her counterpart in the Senate, Mitch McConnell, who presumably would need to make a deal with her, is fraught. Immigrants in Texas are skeptical of the president’s proposal.

While Mr. Trump has projected confidence in public, he has expressed private frustration over what he views as negative coverage. Many Republicans concede, also in private, that he has made strategic errors and allowed dysfunction to continue.

Last week things got personal, too: Ms. Pelosi threatened to cancel the president’s State of the Union address; Mr. Trump retaliated by denying her military transport to Afghanistan. And then she accused the Trump administration of leaking her plans to fly commercial, prompting her to postpone the trip, citing security concerns.

Trump triunfó en todos los estados pese a la alianza de última hora de sus rivales para bloquearlo

El magnate inmobiliario Donald Trump y la exsecretaria de Estado Hillary Clinton volvieron a erigirse en los triunfadores de una nueva jornada de primarias de cara a las elecciones presidenciales de Estados Unidos.

“En lo que a mí me concierne, esto ya se ha acabado”, dijo Trump ante una multitud de seguidores en Nueva York.

Trump arrasó en los cinco estados en los que se celebraron primarias del Partido Republicano, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pensilvania y Rhode Island.

En el lado demócrata, la exsecretaria de Estado Hillary Clinton se impuso en Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland y Pensilvania mientras su competidor, el senador Bernie Sanders, venció en Rhode Island.

Hillary Clinton superó la barrera de los 2.000 delegados con sus victorias de este martes.

Trump se ve ganador

Las proyecciones señalan que Trump supera ya la barrera de los 900 delegados, cuando necesita 1.237 para asegurarse la nominación como candidato del Partido Republicano en las elecciones presidenciales de noviembre.

Expertos en política estadounidense señalan que en cualquier caso Trump quedará por delante de sus rivales, el senador Ted Cruz y el gobernador John Kasich.

Francamente, si Hillary Clinton fuera un hombre, no creo que consiguiera ni el 5% de los votos”

Agregan que la única opción que tienen Cruz y Kasich es evitar que el empresario neoyorquino llegue a los 1.237 delegados y provocar una “convención negociada”.

Para Trump, Cruz y Kasich están “perdiendo el tiempo”.

Trump también dedicó un momento a atacar a Clinton, que se perfila como clara favorita en el Partido Demócrata, y de quien dijo que sería una “presidenta terrible” que no tiene “ni la fuerza ni la energía”.

“Francamente, si Hillary Clinton fuera un hombre, no creo que consiguiera ni el 5% de los votos”, dijo.

“Lo único que tiene es la carta de que es mujer. Y lo más bonito es que no gusta a las mujeres”.

Bernie Sanders anunció que seguirá en la carrera demócrata.

Clinton suma 2.137 entre delegados y superdelegados, más del 89% de los 2.383 que se requieren para ser asegurarse la candidatura demócrata. En ese partido siguen en juego 651 delegados.

Pese a lo cerca que está Clinton del número que necesita, de acuerdo a las reglas de las primarias demócratas, ningún precandidato puede cantar victoria hasta la convención de julio.

Trump y Clinton consolidan su ventaja tras las arrolladoras victorias en Nueva York, el estado más simbólico para ellos

Clinton llamó a los partidarios de Bernie Sanders a “unificar el Partido Demócrata” pensando en las elecciones presidenciales del 8 de noviembre.

Critican el nuevo ataque de la revista Noticias a la investidura presidencial – Télam

ampliar

A la dura crítica realizada ayer por el Arzobispo de Buenos Aires, cardenal Mario Poli, quien definió a la tapa de Noticias como de “muy mal gusto”, se sumaron hoy representantes de la comunidad judía y dirigentes políticos, quienes coincidieron en el cuestionamiento a la publicación que dirige Jorge Fontevecchia.

La revista “revela una vez más la absoluta incoherencia de aquellos medios que se cansaron de instalar acusaciones contra Cristina y el FPV sobre violencia y división en la sociedad”, señalaron en un comunicado los intendentes del Frente para la Victoria agrupados en Oktubres.

“Nada es más nefasto y bajo que pretender instalar comercialmente una revista apelando a la agresividad, resentimiento y desconsideración de la investidura presidencial, con altas dosis de misoginia y burla a todos los que profesamos el cristianismo.

Peor aún en estas fechas de oración, reflexión, reunión familiar y búsqueda de paz”, señalaron.

Por su parte, el rabino Marcelo Polakoff, presidente de la Asamblea Rabínica Latinoamericana y líder espiritual de la comunidad judía de Córdoba, dijo a Télam que “el escándalo no se conjuga con los fines últimos del periodismo” y que este tipo de tapas “resultan ofensivas”.

“Aún cuando la libertad de expresión sea un valor esencial de toda democracia, tiene que estar acompañada por otros no menos esenciales como el respeto a la religiosidad y la investidura presidencial”, agregó.

En tanto, el rabino Daniel Goldman, de la Comunidad Bet-El y uno de los creadores del Instituto del Diálogo Interreligioso junto al musulmán Omar Abboud y el padre Guillermo Marcó, adhirió a las expresiones de monseñor Poli, quien ayer consideró a la tapa como “de muy mal gusto porque la Semana Santa no es para eso”, y porque “no se debe hacer eso con la figura de ningún presidente”.

“Si hay un grupo que sea mayoritario o minoritario que se siente incómodo por algo que tiene que ver con un elemento tan raigal como es la vida religiosa, hay que tener cuidado y respeto por la sensibilidad del otro”, agregó.

Los intendentes agrupados en Oktubres señalaron también que “es obligación y responsabilidad de todos los titulares de las distintas fuerzas políticas, jefes de bloque, candidatos y, principalmente, autoridades nacionales y provinciales del Partido Justicialista, manifestar el más enérgico rechazo a semejante falta de respeto”.

Los jefes comunales Hernán Yzurieta (Punta Indio), Eduardo “Bali” Bucca (Bolívar), Maru Martini (Bariloche), Santiago Maggiotti (Navarro), Francisco Durañona (San Antonio de Areco), Francisco Echarren (Castelli), Patricio Mussi (Berazategui), Juan Pablo de Jesús (Partido de la Costa) y Juan Pablo Anghileri (General Rodríguez), reiteraron en su nota su más “enérgico rechazo”.

El intendente de Berazategui, en diálogo con Télam, remarcó el llamado a repudiar la nueva agresión de Fontevecchia “porque se trata de un nuevo ataque a la investidura presidencial y a la democracia”.

“Como joven hijo de la democracia me duele ver que los gorilas de siempre usan el poder de los medios para atacar, con aquella vieja visión de usar los medios para poner los presidentes que ellos quieren y fundamentalmente echar a los que les molestan”, agregó Mussi.

No es la primera vez que la revista que dirige Jorge Fontevecchia ataca la investidura presidencial y a la presidenta Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, concitando el repudio de personalidades y organizaciones sociales y políticas por sus fotos de tapa.

La última vez que Fontevecchia consiguió que se hable de “la tapa de Noticias” fue en diciembre de 2013 cuando presentó en su portada un fotomontaje con el rostro de la Presidenta y un cuerpo desnudo. El título de aquella nota fue “La reina está desnuda. Secretos de una ausencia inquietante”.

Otra tapa que provocó el repudio masivo a Noticias fue la que en septiembre de 2012 presentaba una ilustración que mostraba a la mandataria en un supuesto éxtasis sexual, bajo el título “El goce de Cristina”.

Omicron variant sweeping across nation, now accounts for 73% of new cases; Moderna 3rd dose effective vs. omicron: COVID-19 updates – USA TODAY

Omicron has raced ahead of other variants and is now the dominant version of the coronavirus in the U.S., accounting for 73% of new infections last week, federal health officials said Monday.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention numbers showed nearly a six-fold increase in omicron’s share of infections in only one week.

Overall, omicron is still a small percentage of all U.S. COVID cases. In the week that ended Dec. 11, omicron’s share of new infections in the U.S. increased to 2.9% from 0.4% the week before, the CDC previously reported.

But CDC said they are revising some of the earlier numbers, after analyzing more specimens. The new numbers indicate that about 13% of the infections the week of Dec. 11 were omicron, and not 3%, CDC officials said.

In much of the country, omicron’s prevalence is even higher. It’s responsible for an estimated 90% of new infections in the New York area, the Southeast, the industrial Midwest and the Pacific Northwest.

Since the end of June, the delta variant has been the main version causing U.S. infections. As recently as the end of November, more than 99.5% of coronaviruses were delta, according to CDC data.

Scientists in Africa first sounded the alarm about omicron less than a month ago and on Nov. 26 the World Health Organization designated it as a “variant of concern.” The mutant has since shown up in about 90 countries.

Much about the omicron variant remains unknown, including whether it causes more or less severe illness. Early studies suggest the vaccinated will need a booster shot for the best chance at preventing omicron infection but even without the extra dose, vaccination still should offer strong protection against severe illness and death.

“All of us have a date with omicron,” said Dr. Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. “If you’re going to interact with society, if you’re going to have any type of life, omicron will be something you encounter, and the best way you can encounter this is to be fully vaccinated.”

Also in the news:

►The United States has reported more than 51 million COVID-19 cases, Johns Hopkins University data showed late Monday. Also on Monday, Kansas became the 32nd state to report at least 500,000 cases. And the world has reported more than 275 million cases.

►Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser declared a state of emergency and reinstated an indoor mask order lifted a month ago. The mandate goes into effect at 6 a.m. ET Tuesday and runs through January. The city is facing its highest daily infection totals since the pandemic began.

►Idaho health officials on Monday deactivated crisis guidelines for rationing care at medical facilities in northern Idaho. A decline in new infections was cited.

►The New Year’s Eve party planned for downtown Los Angeles’ Grand Park will not have an in-person audience because of the rising number of coronavirus cases, organizers said. The “NYELA Countdown to 2022” event will be streamed, as it was last year.

►Boston Mayor Michelle Wu said that starting Jan. 15, patrons of indoor dining, bars, nightclubs and gyms must show proof of at least one vaccine dose. Proof of full vaccination will be required for adults Feb. 15, and city workers must get vaccinated, she said at a City Hall news conference as protesters shouted “Shame on Wu.”

►Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan said he received a positive coronavirus rapid test Monday. “I have been vaccinated and boosted, and I am feeling fine at the moment,” Hogan tweeted. He also urged Marylanders to get vaccinated and/or boosted.

Today’s numbers: The U.S. has recorded more than 51 million confirmed COVID-19 cases and more than 807,000 deaths, according to Johns Hopkins University data. Global totals: More than 275.2 million cases and 5.3 million deaths. More than 203.9 million Americans – 61.4% of the population – are fully vaccinated, according to the CDC.

What we’re reading: A study by Oregon researchers finds that people fully vaccinated against COVID-19 who have breakthrough infections end up with what the authors call “super immunity.” They caution the vaccinated should not seek COVID-19 infection, but the “hybrid immunity” offers some solace for those who catch one despite having been vaccinated.

Biden aide tests positive for COVID-19 after flying with president

A White House aide who was in close contact with President Joe Biden aboard Air Force One on Friday tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said in a statement Monday evening.

Biden tested negative Sunday and Monday and is scheduled for a re-test again Wednesday. He is not changing his daily schedule because the CDC does not require fully vaccinated people to quarantine after an exposure, Psaki said.

The aide, a “mid-level staff member” who was fully vaccinated, spent about 30 minutes “in proximity to the president” as Biden flew from South Carolina to Pennsylvania on Friday, according to the White House statement. The White House did not identify the aide by name.

Moderna booster is effective against omicron

The first data available for Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine suggests a third booster dose will be effective against omicron, the variant that is rapidly taking over the world.

The encouraging revelation came hours before former President Donald Trump said he has received a coronavirus booster shot. Trump was appearing on Bill O’Reilly’s “History Tour” at the American Airlines Center in Dallas when the host asked if he was boosted. “Yes,” Trump replied to a smattering of boos.

Public health officials have been urging Americans to get booster shots. Moderna said early Monday that in a lab study, blood from 20 people who received the 50-microgram Moderna booster had 37 times the number of neutralizing antibodies as compared to blood from the same number of people who only received two shots. Moderna had reduced the dose of its booster to half the dose of the original two shots to limit side effects such as fever, muscle aches and fatigue.

A group that received a third shot of the higher, 100-microgram dose saw an 83-fold jump in neutralizing antibodies against omicron. Dr. Eric Topol, founder and director of the Scripps Research Translational Institute, said such a big increase isn’t necessary to provide protection.

A study released earlier this month by Pfizer and its partner BioNTech showed that a third dose of their COVID-19 vaccine boosted neutralizing antibodies against omicron more than 25-fold, which should be protective, Topol said, though real-world studies are needed to prove it.

“I think it’s pretty encouraging,” he said. “We’ll take any positive we can get.”

Omicron now 82% of Houston Methodist’s new symptomatic cases

The Houston Methodist hospital system reports that the omicron variant accounts for 82% of new symptomatic cases it is treating. Dr. S. Wesley Long, medical director of diagnostic microbiology, said the omicron variant is now in Houston “in full force.” The omicron variant became the “cause of the supermajority” of new Houston Methodist cases in less than three weeks, he said. In comparison, the delta variant took three months during the summer before it was the cause of more than 80% of cases.

“Omicron in our data has a doubling time of 2.2 days,” Long tweeted.

‘Someone’s got to do it’: Vaccines tested in kids under 5 years old

There are no authorized COVID-19 vaccines in the U.S. for children younger than 5 years old. But kids like Dr. Alicia Carrasco’s 1-year-old twins and 3-year-old son Matías are participating in Moderna’s trial and are helping to change that. The twins received their second jab a few weeks ago, and Matías is scheduled to get his next shot in a few weeks. Velocity Clinical Research, a clinical trial site organization, enrolled about 650 children at four locations across the country. A quarter of the children received the placebo and the rest were vaccinated with Moderna’s vaccine. No one knows for certain which they were given, but the internal medicine physician is confident the sudden fever she saw in the twins is a sign they were jabbed with the active vaccine.

“Someone’s got to do it,” she said. “My kids are the most important thing in the world to me but so is anyone else’s kids who have been a part of trials.” Read more here.

New infections up 41% from a month ago

The U.S. is moving toward Christmas in dramatically different shape than it was before Thanksgiving. A month ago, case counts had been rising, to about 90,000 per day on average. For much of December cases appeared to hover around 120,000 but have recently leaped above 130,000 per day, Johns Hopkins data shows. Compared to a month ago, the pace of new cases nationally is up 41%.

Overall, the CDC says about three-quarters of counties have high levels of transmission. But where you live is important. The pace of cases is up 393% in Hawaii, more than tripled in Connecticut and New Jersey, and more than doubled in Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, New York and Rhode Island. But cases appear to have fallen in at least a third of the states – down 72% in Montana, 61% in Wyoming, 58% in Alaska, 46% in Colorado.

New Zealand man dies from myocarditis linked to Pfizer vaccine

A 26-year-old man has died from myocarditis linked to the Pfizer vaccine, health officials in New Zealand said Monday.

Myocarditis, a form of heart inflammation, has been detected in a small number of vaccinated individuals. It is treatable, is not specific to COVID-19 vaccines, and was a common side effect of the smallpox vaccine in the past, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The man died within two weeks of receiving his first dose, and a coroner determined that preliminary information has identified myocarditis as the probable cause of death, New Zealand’s COVID-19 Vaccine Independent Safety Monitoring Board said in a statement.

“With the current available information, the board has considered that the myocarditis was probably due to vaccination in this individual,” the monitoring board’s statement said.

The statement said the benefits of vaccination with the Pfizer vaccine continue to “greatly outweigh” the risk of such rare side effects, adding that the COVID-19 infection can itself be a cause of myocarditis as well as other serious illnesses.

Dozens on cruise ship test positive

At least 48 people on board Royal Caribbean’s Symphony of the Seas ship that ended a seven-day cruise in Miami on Saturday were positive for COVID-19 during the sailing, the cruise line said. Those 48 people who tested positive represented less than 1% of the 6,074 passengers and crew members on board Symphony of the Seas, which left Miami on Dec. 11 and made stops in St. Maarten, St. Thomas, and Perfect Day at CocoCay (Royal Caribbean’s private island), spokesperson Lyan Sierra-Caro told USA TODAY.

Connor O’Dell, 29, said a 66-year-old relative reported her symptoms to Royal Caribbean during the cruise. He said neither a doctor nor nurse gave her an in-depth physical exam or asked her about preexisting conditions.

“We all knew the risks of going on the ship,” O’Dell told USA TODAY. “The problem is that we were promised a set of protocols (or) adequate medical staffing and they were never adhered to.”

Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Cory Booker test positive for COVID-19

Senators Elizabeth Warren, D-Massachusetts, and Cory Booker, D-New Jersey, and Rep. Jason Crow, D-Colorado, have tested positive for COVID-19 in breakthrough cases with mild symptoms, they announced on Twitter.

“I regularly test for COVID & while I tested negative earlier this week, today I tested positive with a breakthrough case. Thankfully, I am only experiencing mild symptoms & am grateful for the protection provided against serious illness that comes from being vaccinated & boosted,” Warren wrote.

Booker tweeted: “I learned today that I tested positive for COVID-19 after first feeling symptoms on Saturday. My symptoms are relatively mild. I’m beyond grateful to have received two doses of vaccine and, more recently, a booster – I’m certain that without them I would be doing much worse.”

The senators from Massachusetts and New Jersey have both been vocal proponents of the COVID-19 vaccine in Washington. Warren lost her older brother to the virus in May 2020. The Democrats are just two of several senators who have tested positive for COVID despite being fully vaccinated, including Lindsay Graham, R-SC and John Hickenlooper, D-Colo.

The latest congrespositive tests come amid a rise of COVID-19 cases across the nation and the omicron variant, which Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious diseases expert, said has an “extraordinary capability of spreading.”
