...official says it's "very possible" that none of the team's eight home games will be broadcast in the hard-hit region (by comparison, only nine of the NFL's 256 regular-season games last year were blacked out). "My worry is that if the NFL doesn't look at changing the rule, we're losing a fan base," says Richard Clark, president of the Jacksonville City Council. "I would like to think they would really, really look at those communities which are hardest hit and have an honest discussion about it, as opposed to saying this...
...Fans in long-suffering Detroit, however, don't need to look at the stands to know something is wrong, both with the hapless Lions and the city as a whole.

Geithner replied that the Stress Tests were stringent enough...
...scientists explored another question - whether the current vaccine doses would still be effective if they were halved, by being diluting with an adjuvant (currently, the U.S. government has not approved any vaccines with adjuvants, but some have been approved in other countries). The answer, it seems, in another early look at the data, is yes. Even a single dose of the watered-down version of the vaccine produced enough antibodies to protect against infection in 80% of the 175 people studied...
