Visitors to Sangareddy in the Indian state of Telangana will find an unusual jail. The colonial-era District Central Jail in Sangareddy is no longer an actual prison - it's a museum that's become a tourist attraction and even a therapy destination for visitors, who can now gain a 24-hour first-hand experience of prison life, or just cut themselves off from the world, by paying a fee of 500 rupees, or about $7.50, for a night's stay. Paying visitors receive prison uniforms, a steel meal plate, a mug, bedding, and other necessities of prison life before being led away by an officer to their cell in the guest prison, where they will languish for the rest of their 24-hour sentence. During their confinement, the guest 'prisoners' are allowed to plant saplings and clean their barracks. The 220-year-old prison, which has since been converted in to a museum, offers this unusual new service, called 'Feel the Jail', to drive interest and traffic to their doors. People have many of their own reasons for feeling the jail, from simply experiencing the novelty to serious therapy time away from the distracting pull of the digital world. Would you ever willingly choose to be an inmate for 24 hours at the Sangareddy District Jail?

Possibly referring to himself as 'the Golden Goose' that had been forgotten, President Donald Trump on Thursday ratcheted up his attacks on Fox News. The president regularly tweets Fox News clips of guests or hosts praising him. He's also been critical of the Rupert Murdoch-owned network. Trump and Fox News have blown hot and cold together over the years. However, when Fox named Joe Biden president-elect, it seemed to be the last straw. According to Business Insider, Trump retweeted several regular Twitter users' complaints about the network--and registered his own. A few said they wanted to switch from Fox News to Newsmax, a less widely distributed but more explicitly pro-Trump network.

A faith-based retreat for high school boys in Wisconsin morphed into a COVID-19 superspreader event, leaving 115 people positive for the novel coronavirus. Business Insider reports 76% of campers and staffers came down with COVID-19 after a single camper developed symptoms. The camp implemented some mitigation strategies, like requiring the 152 attendees to quarantine at home for a week before travel. However, it didn't require mask wearing or social distancing during the retreat. Public health officials say attendees should have quarantined for two weeks, not one. One bit of encouraging news? 24 people who had antibodies against the virus before attending the camp never tested positive for COVID-19. These findings provide preliminary evidence that detectable antibodies might provide protection against new SARS-CoV-2 infections for an unknown duration. Wisconsin Department of Health Services
