Frank Lampard claimed Everton were denied a blatant penalty at Anfield where a 2-0 defeat by Liverpool left his club in the relegation zone for the first time since December 2019. Liverpool maintained their title challenge with second-half headers from Andy Robertson and the substitute Divock Origi but had to overcome an obstinate Everton. In the 53rd minute, with the game goalless, Anthony Gordon went down in the Liverpool penalty area under an apparent push by Joël Matip. He retweeted footage of the incident along with two emojis expressing his disbelief. The referee, Stuart Attwell, who had booked Gordon for diving in…

Rates of myocarditis or pericarditis, two types of heart inflammation, are above the levels in an unvaccinated cohort, pegged at 38 per 100,000 after receipt of a second dose of a vaccine built on messenger RNA (mRNA) technology in males aged 16 to 24—the group studies have shown are most at risk of the post-vaccination condition—researchers with health agencies in Finland, Denmark, Sweden, and Norway found. “These extra cases among men aged 16–24…

The Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) has the right to make a partnering U.S. lab wipe all data arising from their collaborative work, a legal document reveals. A memorandum of understanding (MOU) of cooperation, signed between the Wuhan lab and the Galveston National Laboratory at the University of Texas Medical Branch, makes it obligatory for each of the two labs to delete “secret files” or materials upon the request of the other party. “The party is entitled to ask the other to destroy and/or return the secret files, materials, and equipment without any backups,” states the MOU obtained by U.S. Right to…

The U.S. Navy recently reassigned a commander who is fighting the military’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate after the Supreme Court overturned a lower court order that barred a reassignment, according to the officer’s lawyer. The commander was informed by a superior on April 8 that the Navy was reassigning him to shore command, the lawyer said in a declaration to the court. “On Monday, April 11, instead of getting underway with his ship, Navy commander was ‘temporarily reassigned’ for 60 days under a new Navy policy that prohibits unvaccinated personnel from going underway on Navy ships,” the lawyer said. The Navy…

The House of Lords commissioners for standards have launched an investigation into a second Conservative peer for allegedly breaching the rules against peers profiting financially from their membership of the Lords.

Florida’s House of Representatives on April 21 approved a state Senate-passed measure that would strip Walt Disney Co. of its self-governing special district, reversing a more-than-50-year-old Florida provision amid criticism over the corporation’s decision last month to oppose a parental rights law. The decision could mean that Disney, which controls a 25,000-acre parcel of land around Orlando, would pay significantly more in state taxes. At the same time, it signals a souring in relations between Disney—a major political donor and player in Florida—and the Republican-led government. Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has criticized Disney—one of the world’s largest media conglomerates—for embracing…

Burnley started life at Turf Moor without Sean Dyche by selecting a classic 4-4-2 formation made up of players their former manager brought to the club, but this was a different team from the one that lost 2-0 at Norwich less than two weeks ago. Southampton could not cope with the liberated hosts, who gave themselves hope once again of beating the drop. Goals from Connor Roberts and Nathan Collins put a revitalised Burnley in control of their first home contest without Dyche at the helm for almost a decade. The victory leaves them one point behind Everton and safety having played a game…

Downing Street has dramatically pulled an amendment aimed at forcing Tory MPs to delay an inquiry into whether Boris Johnson misled parliament – which will now allow MPs to vote to investigate the prime minister. Amid growing anger from Conservative MPs, the Commons leader, Mark Spencer, said that MPs would be given a free vote on a motion to refer Johnson to the Commons privileges committee – which has the power to demand documents and photographs of lockdown breaches. With minutes to go before a vote that would have delayed any inquiry, Spencer told MPs: “The prime minister has indicated that he…
