When COVID-19 reached the US, the Centers for Disease Control and Protection tracked data related to its spread. However, President Donald Trump's coronavirus task force wrested control from the CDC, with the launch of HHS Protect. The main pandemic data tracking system is run by the Department of Health and Human Services. Federal and state officials use HHS Protect’s data to assess the burden of disease across the country and allocate scarce resources, from medicines to PPE. The problem is, HHS Protect’s data often diverge dramatically from those collected by other sources, including hospitals, states, and federal agencies. And according to Science Magazine, the data also varies from the apparent reality on the ground. A CDC internal analysis completed this month shows HHS Protect's data problems are a national problem. The HHS Protect data are poor quality, inconsistent with state reports, and the analysis is slipshod. And the pressure on hospitals is through the roof. Confidential Source, CDC
On Thursday, IBM stock surged. The boost to the stock came after it announced plans to spin off its legacy managed infrastructure business. IBM plans to solely focus on building up its cloud division. The spinoff is expected to be tax-free for IBM shareholders and will be completed by the end of 2021, the company said. "IBM is laser-focused on the $1 trillion hybrid cloud opportunity," IBM CEO Arvind Krishna said. Business Insider reports that IBM also released preliminary third quarter earnings results.
A former public affairs official of the US Department of Health and Human Services pressured the CDC to alter a report on the risk of COVID-19 to children. Specifically, the editorial staff was pushed to alter epidemiological data on COVID-19's impact on children. The novel coronavirus is estimated to have infected at least 7.43 million people in the US and has killed nearly 210,000 of them. Paul Alexander wrote in emails to the editor-in-chief of the CDC’s epidemiological digest—the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report—on Sept. 11th, 2020. He ordered changes that would downplay the risks to students and faculty if schools return to in-person classes, as President Donald Trump has demanded. The requested changes seemed designed to convey a lower level of risk to students if Trump’s orders were acted on. One former CDC official described Alexander making contact at all with the journal’s staff as highly 'unusual.' That's because the CDC and its journal are supposed to be insulated from external interference.

Old photographs fade away, and old videotapes can become unplayable. Digital photos are also vulnerable, and can be lost when computer hard drives fail. But a young university student has come up with a new way to keep our memories secure.
