KNX In Depth: Aspirin recommendations change--Anti-Semitic incidents hit record high in U.S.--Ukraine human rights activist monitors Russia's actions along humanitarian corridors

from Rising from the Ashes

Remember when you were told taking aspirin could help protect against a heart attack or stroke? We've been hearing that for years. Doctors even recommended people in their 50s start taking baby aspirin every day. Now that's changed and it might be a bit confusing. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force no longer recommends daily aspirin to prevent a first heart attack or stroke among people 60 and older. We go In Depth to try to make sense of this big change. Elon Musk's deal to buy Twitter could further shrink the number of people and businesses that control society's major forms of communication. A new report says there were a record number of Anti-Semitic incidents across the U.S. last year. A top Russian official brings up nuclear war again. We look into whether he's serious or just bluffing. We talk to a human rights activist in Kyiv who's monitoring humanitarian corridors to find out if Russia is allowing safe travels for aid workers and civilians. More COVID medications are supposed to head to more pharmacies but will it meet demand? And Harvard is reckoning with its past ties to slavery.
