More eye-catching was a report of more weakness in the manufacturing sector, and a bearish Commerce department report on construction spending, which declined at a seasonally adjusted 3.3% rate in February, confirming that the recession is still well in play...
...JAMA study, the CDC scientists report that infection with drug-resistant flu does not cause more severe illness or lead to more hospitalizations than infection with nonresistant strains. The study also finds that the resistant strain did not arise from overuse of Tamiflu; in fact, during the past flu season, the resistant strain was found widely in countries with low Tamiflu use, like Norway, but less commonly in places, like Japan, where Tamiflu use is high. If overuse had played a role in the emergence of the resistant strain, health officials might have recommended that clinicians restrict prescriptions...

Syria, which politically controlled Lebanon at the time of Hariri?s death, remains the chief suspect in the murder. An initial report by a UN commission, which began investigating Hariri?s death in 2005, implicated several senior Syrian and Lebanese officials. Subsequent reports, however, have been scant on detail, and it remains unknown what evidence the commission has amassed. Daniel Bellemare, the head of the UN commission for the past year, is expected to continue the investigation when he takes up the role on March...
