Covid-19 crisis would have to be 'really, really bad' to implement a national lockdown, Fauci says
(CNN)Despite the US seeing a rise in Covid-19 cases and deaths, Dr. Anthony Fauci says that things would have to get "really, really bad" for him to advocate for a national lockdown.
The US is averaging more than 55,000 new cases a day -- up more than 60% since a mid-September dip -- and experts say the country is in the midst of the dreaded fall surge. On Friday, the US reported the most infections in a single day since July. As of Saturday, more than 8.1 million cases of the virus had been reported in the US and 219,666 people have died, according to Johns Hopkins University.

This 14-year-old girl won a $25K prize for a discovery that could lead to a cure for Covid-19
(CNN)As scientists around the world race to find a treatment for the coronavirus, a young girl among them stands out.
Anika Chebrolu, a 14-year-old from Frisco, Texas, has just won the 2020 3M Young Scientist Challenge -- and a $25,000 prize -- for a discovery that could provide a potential therapy to Covid-19.
Anika's winning invention uses in-silico methodology to discover a lead molecule that can selectively bind to the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
"The last two days, I saw that there is a lot of media hype about my project since it involves the SARS-CoV-2 virus and it reflects our collective hopes to end this pandemic as I, like everyone else, wish that we go back to our normal lives soon," Anika told CNN.

Break political deadlock and focus on economy, leaders told
PETALING JAYA: Politicians have been urged to resolve their disputes over the reins of power as soon as possible before the political uncertainty dampens economic growth.
An economist, Yeah Kim Leng of Sunway University, said political uncertainties are a distraction as attention and resources are diverted to the country’s political climate rather than the economy.
Malaysian Employers Federation executive director Shamsuddin Bardan said investors’ confidence may be eroded if the political process takes too long to resolve the impasse about who will run the government.
“Once the question of legitimacy of the government is resolved, the focus will then move to the economy,” Yeah told FMT.

As Muhyiddin’s critics swell in Umno, analysts question how much longer Perikatan rule can last
KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 19 — Speculation that Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s hold on power is diminishing has been gaining momentum in recent weeks as Umno warlords push their leaders to disassociate the party from the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government.
In the past week, discontent against Muhyiddin has been swelling within Umno. One veteran lawmaker has backed calls for a no-confidence motion to be tabled against the PM when Parliament reconvenes in two more weeks.
On the back of this is a letter circulating on social media over the weekend that mentioned Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi purporting Umno’s full support for Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar to replace Muhyiddin.

I'm a hot air balloon that could go to space
With the air, like I don't care baby by the way
Huh, because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do
Here come bad news, talking this and that
(Yeah) Well, give me all you got, and don't hold it back
(Yeah) Well, I should probably warn you I'll be just fine
(Yeah) No offense to you, don't waste your time
Here's why
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy

PETALING JAYA: DAP MP Teresa Kok has hit back at Najib Razak after the former prime minister spoke out against her party for blaming Umno for the spike in Covid-19 cases after the Sabah polls.
She questioned why Najib was laying the blame on her party now when he had previously blamed the National Security Council (MKN) for rejecting Health Minister Dr Adham Baba’s suggestion of mandatory quarantine for those returning from Sabah.
She added that Najib had also previously urged Umno to retract support for PPBM because of the blame his party was getting over the surge in Covid-19 cases.
“Najib also blamed Home Minister Hamzah Zainudin for not properly isolating prisoners or observing the SOPs which caused the clusters in several detention centres in Kedah, Perak and Penang.
