Good news: The FDA finally approved the Novavax Covid-19 vaccine.

Bad news: There are new restrictions that will create lots of problems for people who want to get the Novavax Covid-19 vaccine.

This brings us to the "simplified" risk-of-bias tool that doesn't have an actual problem to solve, nor add anything. But why not gather friends, throw opinions around, load up the CV, and then lament the continued explosion of low quality systematic reviews.

Gigil, alamak among new words in Oxford English Dictionary The Oxford English Dictionary has added new untranslatable words from South East Asia.

โ€˜Gigilโ€™ has long been a favourite untranslatable: finding something or someone so impossibly cute you just want to squeeze them (not always great for the squeezee).

Pubmed and NIH websites are down. Probably consequences of the trash sitting in the white house.

Here is an attempt at an alternative.
europepmc.org

Also, consider submitting your manuscript to preprint servers like connect.biorxiv.org/now/.

โ€œMore than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.โ€

China is upgrading its propaganda. Photos emerge that Palawan, a Philippine province, is now a Chinese territory. If WW3 is to happen, China will be the main aggressor in Asia and Philippines is looking again to be the most destroyed Asian territory as it was in WW2.
