More concerns about the heatwave in Siberia in Russia.  International team of scientists say it shows that global warming caused by humans is very serious now.  The high temperatures cause permafrost (frozen ground) to melt and even buildings to collapse.  This would happen only one time in 80 thousand years.  It is happening because of the climate change that humans are causing.  It will lead to extremes in the weather all over the world.
Crazy stuff between Trump and his main health adviser.  US health expert Dr Fauci says Trump team try to undermine him is “bizarre” and “nonsense”.   In the end, “it hurts the president to do that,” On Sunday, White House official claimed health adviser made mistakes and was wrong. But on Wednesday Trump said he had a “good relationship” with him.  But they have not met for 2 months.  And the virus is spreading more and more.  People say Trump is not doing a good job.
Now worrying that information on the virus is not being sent to the Disease Control Centre but direct to Trump.  This means it will be harder to tell about the spread of the virus and researchers will have difficulty in finding out what is happening.  This could give Trump control over what is reported.
There are many protests about the virus happening in different countries.  Israel has big street protests as they think the Government has messed up and the virus is spreading.  There are similar protests in many countries.
