Eurozone unemployment rose to 7.9% in July despite COVID measures easing in many countries

anti-eurozone anti-EU protest
Great in theory. First sort out the euro mess, though.
July was marked by some relaxation of COVID-19 measures in many EU Member States, but despite this, the seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate in the eurozone went up to 7.9% from 7.7% in June.

While these figures indicate a worsening situation, they remain below those seen during the European sovereign debt crisis, when unemployment reached a record high.

The coronavirus pandemic has left the eurozone facing a serious recession, with the economy shrinking by 12.1% in the second quarter of this year โ€” the worst contraction since records began, according to Eurostat.

As many as 15.184 million men and women in the bloc, 12.793 million of whom were in the eurozone, were unemployed in July 2020, according to Eurostat data.

Nearly 3 in 4 adults plan to get vaccinated against the coronavirus, World Economic Forum survey shows

Around 74% of adults globally are willing to get immunized against the coronavirus if a vaccine became available โ€” but that may not be enough to defeat the fast-spreading virus, according to a survey released Tuesday.

The survey by World Economic Forum and market research firm Ipsos polled close to 20,000 adults across 27 countries over two weeks โ€” between July 24 and Aug. 7 this year.

A majority of respondents from all the countries expressed their willingness to get a vaccine, the survey results showed. China was the most enthusiastic country with 97% of respondents indicating they would want to be vaccinated, while Russia was the least willing with only 54% interested to do so, the survey found.

Still, it's concerning that roughly one-quarter of people globally not intending to get a vaccine, said an expert from the World Economic Forum.

Comment: And most of them are highly experimental, produced by firms with genocidal track records, and come with zero legal recourse for the 'consumer' if they 'go wrong'.

At least two separate flight crews landing at Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday night reported seeing what appeared to be a "guy in a jetpack" flying near them.

According to tower tapes obtained by Fox 11 and other news outlets, the first pilot was landing an American Airlines plane when he saw the person flying about 300 yards in the air.

"We just passed a guy in a jetpack," the pilot said.

A second pilot reportedly flying a JetBlue plane confirmed they also saw a "guy passing by them in a jetpack."

The Hill has reached out to the Federal Aviation Administration, which is reportedly looking into the incident.

The situation is reportedly being looked at as a drone sighting.

The shooting was reported before 2 p.m. Sunday outside Lumes Pancake House, which is located at 11601 S. Western Ave. in the Morgan Park neighborhood.
Lumes Pancake House in Morgan Park remains closed, following a deadly shooting Sunday that left one man dead and four others injured. Police saying Monday, in no uncertain terms, it was a planned hit.

"He was 100% targeted. They stood over and shot him after they originally shot," Chief of Detective Brendan Deenihan said.

A man who Chicago police said was shot at Lumes Pancake House in Morgan Park Sunday afternoon has been identified.

Devon Welsh, 31, of Chicago was identified as the man fatally shot at the restaurant at 11601 South Western Avenue at about 1:30 p.m., according to police and the Cook County Medical Examiner's office.

While no arrests have been made, police said they are following up on surveillance video captured from the restaurant which they believe identifies both the gunmen and the vehicle the suspects were in.

NBA playoff ratings crash by 23%, lowest watched in 5 years

Despite near-daily efforts to show America how woke they are, or, because of it, the NBA's playoff ratings are still tanking.

"Weekday afternoon games have certainly hurt, but the first weekend of the NBA Playoffs was no ratings bonanza either," Sports Media Watch reported.

Viewership on ABC is down 23 percent and the numbers are down 20 percent overall compared to last year's playoffs

"The Lakers' win ranks as ABC's least-watched playoff opener in five years (2015 Pelicans-Warriors: 3.49M), with the caveat that this year marked the first time since 2004 that it did not air a game on the opening day of the postseason," Sports Media Watch added.

Comment: Who could have predicted that when sports began broadcasting politics they would lose viewers who wanted to watch sports?


Fire

Oregon State Police will return to Portland to help local authorities after the fatal shooting of a man following clashes between President Donald Trump supporters and counter-protesters that led to an argument between the president and the city's mayor over who was to blame for the violence.
Portland police declared a riot Monday night after left-wing protesters marched on the apartment building where they believe Mayor Ted Wheeler lives, launching fireworks at the building and starting a fire.

Witnesses and police said some of the 150 or so rioters smashed windows of an apartment building, stole furniture then used it as kindling to light the fires, including one on the lower floor of an occupied apartment building.

Officers said they repeatedly tried to hold back to deescalate the situation, apparently on orders of the city's leadership, but the fires forced them to intervene and clear the scene with crowd control weapons โ€” though they said no tear gas was used.

Top medical advisor to Trump attacked for urging sensible herd immunity strategy

Neuroradiologist Scott Atlas
Health officials are alarmed as a pandemic adviser pushes the White House to adopt Sweden's controversial herd immunity strategy, The Washington Post reports.

Neuroradiologist Scott Atlas, a top medical adviser to President Trump, has urged the White House to implement a pandemic strategy of trying to protect vulnerable groups while letting COVID-19 spread through most of the country so that healthy people can build up immunity to the virus, modeling the way Sweden has responded to the coronavirus crisis, the report says.

A senior administration official described Atlas, who reportedly meets with Trump nearly every day, as the "anti-Dr. Fauci," though the Post notes he doesn't have a background in infectious diseases or epidemiology. He has reportedly clashed with members of the coronavirus task force including Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx.

Comment: The Washington Post is in the business of lies. Their estimations mean nothing, yet somehow they're to be taken more seriously than both medical experts and actual data? Everyone who has looked at this without fear or paranoia knows this virus is only to be taken seriously for a very small portion of the population. It makes perfect sense to let it run its course (which is what is happening anyway despite immensely destructive restrictions).

We might have to wait forever for science to show the Covid threat is over, so let's use our common sense & get back to normal

It's time to stop fetishizing scientific methods. We have to accept that there are many elements of Covid-19 that science may never understand and if we wait for it to do so, we will never again be able to live a normal life.

The Covid-19 outbreak is largely over, and man's attempts to slow, stop or understand the virus have failed. Science will eventually discover more about the pandemic but it is a slow process.

Science, if it is working properly, will not come to a conclusion that is wholly wrong. But not everything that is true can be established by a randomized control trial followed by peer review. Take the theory, popularized by Dr John Lee's work in the Spectator, that Covid has become less deadly as it spreads, and is now basically inert.

This would perfectly explain why so many people died of Covid-19 in a short period of time, and why deaths have basically flat-lined since April. It fits with many Covid studies confirming fast evolution, different strains and reinfection. Furthermore, a change to the virus itself could explain why the same patterns in deaths have been seen everywhere, irrespective of lockdowns, demographics, contact tracing or any other scheme.
