A political aide to the Texas Agriculture Commissioner is being arrested for an alleged scheme to take money in exchange for hemp licenses As of Thursday, over eleven-million people have received at least one dose of the vaccine. Eight-point-five million people have been fully vaccinated in Texas which equals just over 29% of the state s population. Health experts say 75% to 90% of Texans need to be vaccinated to achieve herd immunity.

Peloton has reversed course and issued a recall on its treadmills following the death of a child and 70 reported injuries. Peloton initially refused to recall their treadmills despite an urgent warning to parents about the potential danger of the company s treadmills issued by the Consumer Product Safety Commission several weeks ago. I want to be clear, Peloton made a mistake in our initial response to the CPSC s request, said Peloton CEO
John Foley. We should have engaged more productively with them from the outset. For that, I apologize.
The recall comes after weeks of negotiations with the CPSC and includes the Tread+, which costs $4,295 for the base model, and the cheaper Tread, which is not available in the United States.
