What's going on with the Johnson & Johnson vaccine?

Suspend the use of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine against covid-19: that was the recommendation in the United States issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, for its acronym in English) and the Administration of Medicines and Food "after six rare cases of a severe type of clot" in the country.

The six reported cases are among the more than 6.8 million doses of that vaccine that have been administered in the U.S. In addition, the CDC sent an email to states and public health jurisdictions in which they order to retain all doses of Johnson & Johnson vaccine and label them "do not use."

How easy (or difficult) is it to mistake a firearm for a 'taser'?

At first glance, the confusion seems incomprehensible: a police officer intends to use her stun gun, commonly called a "taser" in the US, but instead fires her firearm and kills a man.

That's what apparently happened Sunday in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, when an agent yelled "Taser! Taser! Taser!

Taser! "

before pulling the trigger on his gun and shooting 20-year-old Daunte Wright, according to the Chief of Police.

However, it is not the first time that a tragic death of this type has happened.

So is it easy, or difficult, to accidentally draw and fire a firearm instead of a taser?

What the Biden Administration Doesn't Want America to See

CNN cameras caught what the administration of President Joe Biden does not want Americans to see.

Endless lines of mothers with their children, walking along dirt trails near the Rio Grande, as they tell CNN they want to turn themselves in to border authorities.

Most of the people we met were from Honduras and Guatemala.

This trip took us close to the immigration processing center established by the Border Patrol in Texas.

And although CNN couldn't stop there, because the agency denied us access, our cameras kept rolling as we passed.

Recorded were even longer lines of migrants, a mirror image of the broken US immigration system.
