The hosts are coming off a 1-0 defeat at Burnley last weekend. Jordan Beyer’s strike eight minutes from time proved to be the difference between the two teams. Norwich, meanwhile, were rampant in a 4-0 win at Preston North End. Teemu Pukki set the ball rolling in the 13th minute, while Kieran Dowell’s brace made it 3-0 by the 28th. Pukki completed his brace in the 69th to help the Canaries claim a comfortable win....
The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), a panel of independent experts advising the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), has recommended that people living in long-term care facilities, as well as those age 65 and older, be included in Phase 1 of the COVID-19 vaccination program. The ACIP met on Dec 1 ahead of the FDA’s decisions to grant an emergency use authorizations to the COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna....
Now, two of the companies awarded those contracts—Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson—are trying to prevent shareholders from voting on resolutions to require the companies to disclose information about the impact of government funding on vaccine access. The U.S. government has purchased 200 million doses of the Pfizer vaccine and 100 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccines, for about $20 and $10 per dose, respectively. The shareholder resolutions, filed by members of the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility (ICCR), a shareholder activism organization, ask those two companies to inform their shareholders how “receipt of public financial support for development and manufacture of products for COVID-19 is being, or will be, taken into account when making decisions that affect access to such products, such as setting prices....
The total death count is projected to reach around 330,677 by Christmas and surpass 500,000 by January 31, according to the latest projection by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME). Here we look at three states that have reported the most number of deaths per 100,000 people in the last seven days, according to the latest report Thursday from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)....
The Cowboys owner, appearing on Dallas radio station KRLD-FM on Tuesday, dismissed any notion that the incident impacted his interest in the free-agent receiver. “No, it did not,” Jones said. “His overall team compatibility – his judgment, his behavior – is not an issue with him. It is with many, but not with him.” Jones’ answer tracks with his longstanding interest in adding Beckham to the Cowboys’ roster ahead of a pivotal final stretch to the season....
Per the league’s Collective Bargaining Agreement, players can’t be suspended for positive marijuana tests; the issue for the Cowboys right tackle, however, isn’t that he tested positive, but that he missed multiple tests, and then attempted to bribe the person sent to collect a drug sample.

Gregory is serving a four-game suspension for violating the league’s substance abuse policy and can return to meetings and workouts this week. MORE: What we learned from Week 1 However, Gregory’s suspension could increase to 10 games if he’s found to have violated the policy again since the announcement of his suspension in February. But Cowboys owner Jerry Jones doesn’t seem concerned. “I don’t want to be presumptuous. I don’t want to be anything,” Jones said Sunday after the team’s loss to the Giants....
A terrific 74 not out from Andre Fletcher was the foundation of the Zouks 206-3. It proved too much for the Tallawahs as they never recovered from the early losses of Chris Gayle and Kumar Sangakkara to finish well short of their target. The victory also secured the Zouks qualification for the Hero CPL play-offs for the first time in their history. The Zouks got off to a flying start with 60 runs coming without loss in their best PowerPlay performance of Hero CPL 2016 so far....

Kieron Pollard’s men had kicked off the season in a dominant way. However, they lost their momentum midway to fall to the 4th position on the standings. On the other side, Guyana are yet to lose a match this season. The result of this match will have a huge impact on the playoffs because if the Knight Riders manage to break the winning streak of the Warriors, they will earn themselves a place in the 1st Qualifier....
Craft had earned a reputation as the best on-ball defender of his generation. He was named the 2012 Big Ten defensive player of the year. In five meetings with the 2012 Big Ten freshman of the year and the 2013 national player of the year, Craft humbled Michigan’s Trey Burke to the tune of 36 percent shooting, 4.4 turnovers per game and a scoring average of 13.2. A 6-2 senior, Craft did all of this during an era in which hand-to-hand combat was taught by college basketball coaches, practically raised to an art form....

Coutinho has established himself as one of the world’s most talented midfielders since narrowly missing out on Luiz Felipe Scolari’s 2014 World Cup squad. Playing regularly in a Liverpool side renowned for their attacking fluency under Brendan Rodgers and then Jurgen Klopp has played a major role in his development, before eventually sealing a £142million switch to Barcelona in January. He has perhaps lacked consistency a little since making the move to Spain, but Tite is convinced the 25-year-old - who scored in Friday’s 3-0 win over Russia - is the complete package....
A new study—titled Trends and Prediction in Daily New Cases and Deaths of COVID-19 in the U.S.—builds on academic research conducted in China which suggested internet searches could be used as a model to track the scope of the pandemic. In China, web search interest was determined to be correlated with daily incidence of COVID-19, but the theory had not yet been applied to the U.S.—until now. Results appeared to be promising, the team said....
A third COVID-19 vaccine has entered the scene. Over the past week, Johnson & Johnson’s recently-authorized vaccine has made an impact on the total number of doses available to Americans—even if the rate of people actually getting vaccinated hasn’t changed much. The federal government delivered nearly 20 million vaccine doses to the states between last Monday and Monday, March 8—the largest week over week increase we’ve seen yet. While the Biden administration had already stated it would raise the number of Pfizer and Moderna vaccines shipping out to the states during the month of March, the 3....
