A VA study of over 1 million veterans found the 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine cut COVID-linked major heart events by 37.7%, with stronger 50.7% effectiveness in those over 75 and small absolute reductions like 2 fewer events per 10,000. Published June 15, 2026, in JAMA Internal Medicine, it tracked mostly older men after shots in late 2024, showing benefits for high-risk groups but drawing skeptic fire over tiny absolute gains, healthy vaccinee bias, and observational limits. Lead author Ziyad Al-Aly stressed skipping shots leaves heart protection untapped, while critics like Alex Berenson dismissed the relative risk figures as misleading.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

For older veterans, getting the updated COVID shot alongside their flu vaccine meant fewer heart attacks and strokes tied to infections. The findings highlight real protection, especially for those over 75.

Jostein Hauge, a Cambridge economist, pointed out that from 1969 to 2025, none of the 99 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences winners listed a mainland Chinese affiliation, sparking lively discussion. Some blame bias toward Western free-market ideas and exclusion of critics or state-led models, while others stress the award rewards theoretical work with a long impact lag, not policy outcomes. Chinese success, they note, came from pragmatic reforms like Deng Xiaoping's rather than prize-winning theories, highlighting tensions between global economic power and academic recognition.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

China's rise to the world's second-largest economy has lifted millions from poverty, yet no economist from a mainland institution has claimed the Nobel in economics.

ESPN's Bobby Marks spotlighted 27-year-old guard Anfernee Simons as a free-agent fit for the Heat, who just acquired the two-time MVP from Milwaukee in a blockbuster trade sending out Tyler Herro, Jaime Jaquez Jr., and draft picks. After a down year in Chicago averaging 14.3 points and 38.5% from three, Simons could restore his value—previously 22.6 points with Portland—by joining Miami's tax-free, winning culture alongside Bam Adebayo and Erik Spoelstra. Fans buzz with lineup ideas and excitement over playing with Giannis, though some doubt Simons would accept the vet minimum amid other shooter targets like Klay Thompson.

This follows Rome's rejections of other German Synodal Way proposals, while urging better priest training to address pastoral needs. Traditionalists hailed the decision, while progressives voiced disappointment.
