Well, Good Morning!
Let's take a look at what the day has in store for us.
So, let's dig in, shall we?
Here's What You Need To Know... University cancels classes after attack, illustrating the rise of cyber threats Classes were canceled on Tuesday at Washington, D.C.'s Howard University, after the HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) was hit by a suspected ransomware attack on Friday that forced the school to shut down internet service across the campus.
Crippling ransomware attacks have been launched in recent months against meat supplier JBS, Colonial Pipeline, and even U.S. hospitals. In August, an Indianapolis hospital was forced to turn away ambulances and divert patients to other facilities after an attack.
Are the unvaccinated becoming the pariahs of this country? At least two doctors recently declared that they would not treat unvaccinated patients. In Florida, a physician said there is "almost no one that cannot take one of the vaccines for medical reasons," but said she would provide exceptions for those who presented a valid health reason for avoiding the jab. She is still offering virtual appointments, apparently. Dr. Linda Marraccini said her new rule goes into effect in a week's time, on September 15.
"I understand that people are free to choose, but to me, it's a problem when it affects other people," she said. "When it comes to the safety of others, when it comes to the fact that it's a global health problem and community health problem, at this point, I really say that this is where it draws the line in the sand for me… It appears that there is a lack of selflessness and concern for the burden on the health and well-being of our society from our encounters."
Apparently, a doctor in Alabama recently implemented a similar policy, a move that many Democrats supported.
In a similar situation, a college student who chose not to get vaccinated found himself locked out of his school's email account, and unable to take classes, even though he was only taking courses online. Apparently, his college was one of those who favored tough virus restrictions. Still, it was unclear exactly why he was not allowed to participate virtually. The senior's father said, "I believe in science, I believe in vaccines, but I am highly confident that [the virus] and variants do not travel through computer monitors by taking online classes."
Two more 9/11 victims identified, twenty years later As the nation prepares to commemorate those who died in the 9/11 terror attacks and the aftermath, the New York City chief medical examiner identifies two more victims. They are the first victims identified since October 2019; new identifications are being made thanks to advances in DNA technology. Nevertheless, around 40% of the initial victims of the 9/11 attacks remain unidentified. Countless others were injured or now suffer illness from the incident, which raises the official death toll every year.
In the midst of an intense legal battle by victims' families to unveil more evidence against the perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks, President Biden is still set to visit New York City, the Pentagon, and Shanksville, Pennsylvania (where the third hijacked plane was retaken by passengers and crash-landed). Biden was previously told not to come if he did not work toward declassifying information related to 9/11, which was one of his campaign promises.
After the Afghanistan debacle, some citizens still feel firmly that it is no longer Biden's place to come to the memorial sites. However, Biden did end up keeping his word. Before the Labor Day weekend, Biden issued an executive order directing a declassification review of documents related to the 9/11 attacks.
