The tweet that the Tesla CEO released Sunday was part of an exchange with twitter users that omitted to refer to a CoinTelegraph article accusing him of “bitcoin manipulation.” Musk said that the company kept $1.5 billion of its initial investment in bitcoin, but sold about 10% to “confirm it’s easy to pay off.” [bằng bitcoin] without distorting the market”. Elon Musk has become a prominent and influential figure in the crypto world. He tweeted in May that Tesla would no longer accept bitcoin as a means of payment for its vehicles, citing the large amount of carbon emissions in bitcoin mining. esla will continue to allow transactions in bitcoin at the car manufacturer’s stores, once it is confirmed that the “mining” energy source is clean energy.

Musk’s comments on the sustainability of bitcoin “mining” continue to resonate in the crypto community. A commonly cited metric from the University of Cambridge pegged the annual electricity consumption of bitcoin mining at around 99 terawatt-hours. This consumption is more than that of the Philippines or Pakistan. Some of Musk’s recent tweets have also sparked a mix of excitement, confusion, apprehension, and sometimes even fear in the crypto community. Earlier this month, investors attempted to analyze a mysterious tweet from SpaceX that included a bitcoin symbol and a broken heart emoji. The information that Elon Musk transmits has had a great influence on the price of dogecoin and bitcoin. Musk is also partly blamed for the current drop in bitcoin and the broader cryptocurrency complex. The Wall Street Journal has described him as the biggest influence on bitcoin. By the end of June 13, the bitcoin price was up nearly 8%, changing hands at $38,808.09 on CoinDesk. As of now, Bitcoin is up over 28% for the year but is down about 40% from its mid-April peak at $64,829.14. The world’s No. 2 cryptocurrency, Ethereum, gained nearly 5%, changing hands at $2,521.81. Back in February, Tesla revealed that it had acquired about $1.5 billion in bitcoin in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. At the time, Tesla paid about $38,000/bitcoin for each bitcoin. This is the average price at the time of Tesla’s Q4 conference on January 27. This conference did not mention any bitcoin holdings and the date of filing with the SEC. Overall, the prices of digital assets like bitcoin are outperforming traditional markets.

Researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Photo: Daily Mail According to the Daily Mail (UK), this incredible mistake was revealed in a screenshot sent to a Chinese medical journal. The photo shows information about a 61-year-old woman, known as “patient Su”, who lives about a mile from one of Wuhan’s main virus research facilities. The woman was also near a train station along the high-speed rail line that played a key role in spreading the virus around the city of 11 million people. This latest finding was revealed through an interview by a medical journal with the scientist tasked with compiling China’s official data on cases. In an interview with Health Times, Yu Chuanhua, Professor of Biostatistics at Wuhan University, said there were 47,000 confirmed and suspected cases on the national database of COVID-19 by the end of the year. February 2020. Among these, there was a death of a patient at the end of September 2019. “There is data on a patient who became ill on September 29. The data shows that the patient has not been given a nucleic test and a clinical diagnosis. It is possible that this is a suspected case of COVID-19. The patient died. This data has not been confirmed,” added Mr. Yu. The data also shows that two other suspected COVID-19 cases were reported to doctors in Wuhan on November 14 and November 21, 2019, along with several other cases prior to December 8, the period. China informed the World Health Organization (WHO) of the first cases. Inside the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Hubei Province, China. Photo: AP The Health Times article includes screenshots of information of two suspected COVID-19 cases in November 2019 on the database of Professor Yu. Although the patient’s personal details have been obscured, some information can still be seen, including the hospital name and home address. Information shows that patient Su has been treated at Rongjun hospital in Wuhan. Both the home address and the hospital where this patient is being treated are in Hongshan District, Wuhan City, where many studies on SARS-CoV-2 virus related to bats have been conducted in laboratories. experience. The area where patient Su lives and is treated is more than 20 kilometers from the Huanan seafood market, which Beijing initially believed to be the source of the COVID-19 infection. The second patient discovered in November 2019 is a 62-year-old man named Wang, who is being treated at Hanyang Hospital. However, Professor Yu has requested that the information published in the newspaper be retracted, claiming that the dates were entered incorrectly and that all other suspected cases before December 8, 2019 need further verification. . Wuhan Institute of Virology, Hubei Province, China. Photo: EPA This detail was discovered by Gilles Demaneuf, a member of the Drastic digital operations team, who discovered many facts that are said to contradict the theory that COVID-19 is an infectious disease from animals. Chinese objects. “We were able to accurately determine the name, age, and address of the suspected COVID-19 case very early, almost a month before the first case was officially announced. This address is right next to metro line 2 and not far from the hospital that treated some of the other first cases,” Demaneuf said. The railway system, which carries 1 million people a day, is linked to a seafood market, the Wuhan Institute of Virology and an international airport, he said. Demaneuf argues that these new findings show that more clues can be accessed if there are continued and determined efforts to evaluate the hypothesis that the virus leaked from the laboratory. The Wall Street Journal last week also cited a US intelligence report that said three researchers from the Wuhan Institute of Virology were hospitalized for medical care in November 2019, a few months before China announced it. announced the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in this country. However, China has denied the above information. Beijing insists the WHO-led investigation team concluded after a visit to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in February that the possibility of a virus leak from the laboratory was “extremely unlikely”.

The above content is mentioned in a report from the Donald Trump administration, which said that some researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), a center dedicated to research on corona viruses and other pathogens, had fell ill in the fall of 2019 “with symptoms resembling COVID-19 and common seasonal flu.” U.S. officials and former officials with intelligence on researchers in Wuhan expressed differing views on the strength of the evidence outlined in the report. One said that information was provided by an international partner and could be important, but needed further investigation. Others claim that the information is very reliable. “The information that we have comes from a variety of sources and is of very good quality. It is very accurate. What the report doesn’t talk about is the exact reason why they got the disease,” the source told Journal City Wall . Many epidemiologists and virologists believe that November 2019 was the time when SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes the COVID-19 pandemic, began to spread in Wuhan. Beijing says that the first confirmed case in the city fell ill on December 8. China has repeatedly denied that the virus escaped from laboratories. On May 23, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs cited a report published by an investigation team led by the World Health Organization (WHO) after a visit to the Wuhan Institute of Viruses (WIV), saying that the virus leaked from the laboratory. experience is extremely unlikely. “The US continues to hype the theory of lab leaks. Are they really interested in traceability or are they trying to distract? China’s Foreign Ministry said. However, WIV does not share with the WHO team raw data, diaries and lab records where a lot of coronaviruses from bats are studied, the animals that many scientists consider most likely to be the animals. origin of the virus. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said that the team had not yet fully tested the lab leak hypothesis, so further investigation was still needed. There is an opinion that the article of Journal City Wall appearing before the upcoming WHO meeting was to heat the matter up again. But the Biden administration declined to comment on the intelligence report, saying only that all credible theories about the origins of the pandemic should be investigated by WHO and international experts. Abnormal point Shi Zhengli, the leading expert on bat coronaviruses at the WIV, said that the virus did not come out of the place where she was working. She told the WHO investigation team that all staff here were negative for COVID-19 antibodies and there were no staff changes in the corona virus research team. In February, Dutch virologist Marion Koopmans, a member of the investigation team who traveled to Wuhan, told NBC News that some WIV staff members fell ill in the fall of 2019, but she attributed it to common seasonal illnesses. “It’s normal to get sick from time to time. Nothing outstanding. Maybe 1 or 2 people. It’s not a big deal,” Koopmans said. Beijing even suggested that the virus could have originated outside of China, including a laboratory at the Fort Detrick military facility in the US state of Maryland, and then called on WHO to investigate the first COVID-19 outbreaks. in other countries. But most scientists see no evidence to support the idea the virus originated in a US military lab, and the White House says there is no credible reason to investigate the facility. . It is normal for Chinese people to go to the hospital for medical examination and treatment when they are sick, because family doctor services are not yet common. COVID-19 and seasonal flu, although two different illnesses, share many of the same symptoms, such as fever, cough, and aches and pains. However, it is worth noting that members of the same corona virus research team were sick and had to be hospitalized with similar symptoms, before the disease was detected. David Asher, a former US official who led the State Department task force to investigate the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic under Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, told a Hudson Institute panel in March that he suspects suspected that the WIV researchers were sick at the same time from the common seasonal flu. “I highly doubt that three people with good protective clothing working in a third-degree lab caught the flu and were hospitalized with severe symptoms in the same week that had nothing to do with the coronavirus,” he said. Asher said, these three people could be the “first known COVID-19 outbreak”.

Illustration According to the Vietnam News Agency correspondent in New York, in a letter to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, the attorney generals of the states and territories pointed out that the results of many studies have shown the harmful effects of children using use social networks. There are many issues affecting children’s mental and physical health and many cases related to cyberbullying at a time when children are not yet able to face the challenges when they have an account. private social network. They argue that there are more secure ways for children to connect with family and friends than by connecting on social media. For her part, New York State Attorney General Letitia James raised concerns around online harassment, the potential for children to become victims of adult “predators”, mental health issues as well as Facebook’s gaps in data protection and privacy. According to Ms. Letitia, there are too many concerns around allowing Facebook to continue pursuing this idea, so the heads of judicial agencies in 44 US states and territories called on Facebook to abandon plans to release a version. Instagram Kids. This is the new pressure that Facebook has to face when it announced its intention to release a version of Instagram Kids for children under 12 years old from March this year. The very next April, Democratic congressmen sent a letter to CEO Zuckerberg criticizing the plan. In the latest response on May 10, Facebook spokeswoman Stephanie Otway emphasized that parents know their children are on social networks, so Facebook wants to improve the situation by offering solutions. giving them control over what their kids are doing online. The company is working with child psychologists to prioritize the safety and privacy of children, said Stephanie. In addition, Facebook will also work with authorities and parliamentarians on these concerns. For his part, CEO Zuckerberg said that if supervised, the use of social networks can help children more connected with friends. Meanwhile, talking to the Wall Street Journal, Adam Mosseri, in charge of Instagram, said that the plan to create an online playground for children is in its infancy at an early stage and if it is born, it will certainly be a tool to help fathers. Parents manage their children’s activities better and this playground will be completely ad-free. Facebook currently bans children under 13 from using this social network, but according to CEO M.Zuckerberg, many children still lie about their age to create their own login accounts.
