Good morning. As virus cases and hospitalizations drop and increasing attention turns to the state’s vaccine rollout, California officials are attempting a fine balancing act between speeding up the process and ensuring that vulnerable populations aren’t shut out. On Tuesday, Dr. Mark Ghaly, the state’s secretary of health and human services, said in a news conference that the two goals were not mutually exclusive. “This notion that we have to make a choice between speed and equity — it’s a false choice,” he said. “We can do both.” [ Track coronavirus cases , deaths and hospitalizations in California.] But in a state where officials have repeatedly said that equity was a top priority, and that transparency would be built into the effort, information about who’s getting vaccinated and in what order has been difficult to come by. So far, more than 3.5 million doses of vaccine have been administered in California, Dr. Ghaly said. The rate of vaccinations …

Times Insider explains who we are and what we do and delivers behind-the-scenes insights into how our journalism comes together. In late May, when the New York Times journalists Keith Collins and Matthew Haag sent their first email to the company that owns the Empire State Building, New York was expected to fully reopen within six to eight weeks — and they had an ambitious idea for how to cover it. They wanted to create a 3-D model of the building that would showcase the reopening of its offices, retail shops and observation deck. They would use floor plans to build an immersive experience that would take readers inside the world’s most famous skyscraper. There was just one problem: The company, Empire Realty Trust, declined to provide them with information. “They wouldn’t give us anything,” said Mr. Collins, a visual journalist and graphics editor at The New York Times. “Not even the directory.” Determined to learn what a widely known piece of real estate could say …

It has been oft-quoted – albeit humouredly – that the ideal of medicine is the elimination of the physician. The emergence and encroachment of artificial intelligence (AI) on the field of medicine, however, puts an inconvenient truth on the aforementioned witticism. Over the span of their professional lives, a pathologist may review 100,000 specimens, a radiologist more so; AI can perform this undertaking in days rather than decades. Visualise your last trip to an NHS hospital, the experience was either one of romanticism or repudiation: the hustle and bustle in the corridors, or the agonising waiting time in A&E; the empathic human touch, or the dissatisfaction of a rushed consultation; a seamless referral or delays and cancellations. Contrary to this, our experience of hospitals in the future will be slick and uniform; the human touch all but erased and cleansed, in favour of complete and utter digitalisation. Envisage an almost automated hospital: cleaning …

The country needs at least 600 medical colleges, 50 AIIMS-like institutions and 200 super-specialty hospitals, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari said on Saturday as he called for the need to replicate the infrastructure development sector's public-private partnership model in the health care and education sectors. The Road Transport and Highways Minister was speaking at the felicitation of COVID-19 warriors in Karad city of Maharashtra's Satara district. He said the cooperative sector should also come forward to set up medical facilities. "Once during a discussion with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, I told him about the scarcity of ventilators. He asked me how many ventilators were there in the country, to which I replied there must be around 2.5 lakh. But he told me that there were only 13,000 ventilators when the coronavirus pandemic broke out in the country," Mr. Gadkari said. There was lack of oxygen, beds, and other medical facilities at that time. But doctors, paramedical, …

While there has been much chatter on the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) not having a chief ministerial face yet in Punjab, Leader of Opposition in the state Harpal Singh Cheema said that an announcement will be made before the upcoming Punjab Assembly Elections in 2022. Cheema, who the AAP MLA from Dirba, appeared confident of a win. In an interview with CNN-News18 he questioned work done by the Congress during its current tenure and said changing a chief minister at the last hour will not help them win. “The point I am making is they have made him (Charanjeet Channi) chief minister only for three months. They had made many tall promises during the run up in 2017 assembly elections. Which one of those have they implemented?” Cheema said during the interview. He said that people of Punjab had demanded justice on various issues including the desecration of the Guru Granth Sahib in 2015 and the farm laws, but the Congress did not deliver. “Captain saab (Amarinder Singh) had promised that …

In mid-September, the National Park Service finalized a General Management Plan Amendment (GMPA) for the Point Reyes National Seashore , changing a rule to allow livestock production to continue for 20 years in this national park in the San Francisco Bay area of California. This rule change, and the ranching it enables, poses an immediate threat to the local environment, the global climate and the people of San Francisco, especially its underserved communities. It also sets an alarming precedent for degrading national parks throughout the country. Northern California is facing some of the most dangerous climate impacts in the United States . This region leads the nation in terms of drought, wildfires, smoke and ocean degradation. Our summers are gone, and each year is worse than the last. Livestock production in Point Reyes directly fuels these climate impacts by emitting thousands of tons of methane gas from cattle, which goes on to trap heat in the atmosphere. According to …

When the Texas Rangers learned that a woman had died in a jail south of Dallas, they put Adam Russell on the case. He found that there had been a struggle between the woman, Kelli Leanne Page, 46, who was being held on drug charges, and two guards, who entered her cell because they said she would not stop banging a hairbrush against the door. One jailer threw her to the floor, punched her in the face while they scuffled and piled atop her as blood streamed from her nose. The other, a trainee weighing 390 pounds, pinned her down until she stopped breathing. Six hours into his investigation, Ranger Russell indicated in his notes, he was not inclined to blame the guards for her death. And when an autopsy later determined that Ms. Page was the victim of a homicide — having died on Oct. 8, 2017, of a form of asphyxiation — Ranger Russell appeared not to reconsider. Instead, he obtained a second opinion from a retired chief medical examiner, who read the forensic report and said …
