🦠 Nipah virus outbreak: 100 people quarantined in West Bengal to contain deadly zoonotic virus with high fatality

Five cases of the virus have been detected in the state of West Bengal, three of which were recorded this week. A doctor, a nurse, and a healthcare worker were among those affected. Indian authorities have quarantined 100 people. Some countries, such as Thailand, are tightening airport screening: passengers arriving from India are being tested for the virus.

The virus is transmitted from animals (most often bats and pigs) and infected people. The main symptoms include high fever, headache, muscle pain, and extreme weakness. In severe cases, the virus can cause brain and respiratory damage. There are currently no drugs or vaccines specific for Nipah virus infection. According to the WHO, the virus is considered a high-risk pathogen.

Please take care of you health 🙏🏻

🌌 Elon Musk declared that this year SpaceX plans to “prove the full reusability of the Starship spacecraft, which will be a tremendous milestone as the cost of space access will decrease by 100 times.”

"This is the very same economic contrast one might expect, say, between a reusable and a disposable airplane. If an airplane had to be discarded after each flight, it would be an extremely costly journey. However, if it only needed refueling, it’s just the cost of the fuel. And this is truly a fundamental breakthrough that allows for a reduced cost of space access. It is lower than the cost of transporting cargo by airplanes. Less than $200 per kilogram ($90)." - said Musk.

Musk further noted that launching large satellites into space becomes very inexpensive. Solar energy in space provides five times more efficiency, and maybe even more than on Earth. That's why SpaceX plans to launch solar-powered artificial intelligence satellites in the next few years.

🤯 Anti-ICE agitator bites off federal officer's finger during Minneapolis attack

Not everything is clear at the center of yesterday's scandal. Additional details about the assault have not yet been released. It is known that the shot agitator bit off an federal officer's finger, forcing him to use his weapon in self-defense.

"In Minneapolis, these rioters attacked our law enforcement officer and one of them bit off our HSI officer’s finger," Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin wrote in the post and shared a photo. "He will lose his finger."

Aggressive, out-of-control agitators obstructing the work of the ICE often don't understand what they're doing and what they're obstructing, opposing the policies of the U.S. 🇺🇸

🤖 AI could reshape jobs globally by 2030, asserts WEF white paper

A World Economic Forum (WEF) white paper forecasts AI's profound impact on global labor markets by 2030, presenting four scenarios from productivity booms to widespread job displacement. Survey data cited in the paper highlighted deep uncertainty among business leaders. Around 54 per cent of executives globally expect AI to displace existing jobs, while only 24 per cent believe it will create new ones. Nearly 45 per cent anticipate rising profit margins from AI adoption, but just 12 per cent expect higher wages, suggesting productivity gains may not translate evenly into higher wages for workers.

"The future of workplaces and value chains will not be defined by the technologies alone. Human capital strategies and investments prioritised today will determine how well societies and individual businesses can adapt to - and lead in - the new economy," the report read.

🇻🇪 Venezuela eyes 2026 oil boost, interim leader calls for opposition talks

Venezuela wants to boost oil production by at least 18 percent this year through reforms that will fully open the sector to private investors, the head of the state oil giant PDVSA said Saturday. The country's interim president, Delcy Rodriguez, proposed the legislative reforms last week and it passed a first reading Thursday in parliament.

The proposed Hydrocarbons Law reforms would update the legal framework in the oil industry "to ensure that private investors can have legal certainty," PDVSA chief Hector Obregon said from the Puerto La Cruz refinery in eastern Venezuela. "We had a law... that was not up to date with what we needed as an industry," - added Obregon.

US President Donald Trump has made no secret of his interest in Venezuela's oil. His administration has stated bluntly that it is taking over sales of the country's crude petroleum. Rodriguez this week announced that the country had received an initial transfer of $300 million after the sale of its oil by the US. She also spoke Saturday about starting a dialogue with the opposition party in Venezuela to reach a "common good."

🤖 ChatGPT’s latest model is quietly pulling information from Elon Musk’s Grokipedia

Tests show that the latest model, GPT-5.2, has begun citing Grokipedia, an AI-written online encyclopedia linked to Elon Musk, as a source for a range of factual questions. In trials carried out by The Guardian, ChatGPT referenced Grokipedia nine times while answering just over a dozen questions. Some of these were about how Iran’s political system works, including details about the Basij paramilitary force and the ownership of powerful foundations. Others focused on Sir Richard Evans, a British historian who testified as an expert witness against Holocaust denier David Irving in a high-profile libel case.

An OpenAI spokesperson told that it “aims to draw from a broad range of publicly available sources and viewpoints. Grokipedia was launched in October as a rival to Wikipedia, but it works very differently. Unlike Wikipedia, it cannot be edited directly by humans.

🇺🇸 Trump's administration criticizes Europe over India deal

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that Europe is financing a war against itself by buying Russian oil through India.

"The US has made much bigger sacrifices than the European has Europeans have. We have put 25% tariffs on India for buying Russian oil. Guess what happened last week? The Europeans signed a trade deal with India," he said.

In addition, oil exports from Russia fell to their lowest level since August, as imports to India dropped to a minimum over the past 3 years. This put pressure on the price of Urals oil, for which China remains the only available market.
