Description

Yesterday, the F.D.A. recommended pausing the use of Johnson and Johnson’s vaccine. This was after cases of a rare blood clot disorder in six American women developed 1-3 weeks after receiving the shot. One woman died and another is in critical condition. Despite this prompt response by the F.D.A, many are left concerned about whether it's still safe to get it.

Plus, how the border crisis looks from Mexico.

And, human rights in space.
