More than 335.3 million vaccine doses have been administered worldwide, equal to 4.4 doses for every 100 people.

We’re tracking vaccinations around the world. nyti.ms/3t5xNd8
There is already a stark gap between vaccination programs in different countries, with many yet to report a single dose.

There is also a striking divide among continents. nyti.ms/3t5xNd8
Most countries have focused their early vaccination efforts on priority groups like the clinically vulnerable, older people and front-line workers.

We’re tracking the share of the population that has received one dose or are fully vaccinated. nyti.ms/3t5xNd8
Most of the vaccines currently in use around the world require two doses for a patient to be fully vaccinated. The newly available Johnson & Johnson vaccine requires only a single dose. Here are the places where the 10 vaccines are being used. nyti.ms/3t5xNd8
It was announced today that the U.S. will partner with Japan, India and Australia to expand global vaccine supply. The partnership would finance expanded vaccine manufacturing to address shortages in Southeast Asia and around the world. nyti.ms/3exKrxq

It takes hours of flying across Canada to reach Yellowknife, a small city on the northern shore of Great Slave Lake. The region is as remote as it is pristine, but travelers are drawn there from around the world to see the Northern Lights. nyti.ms/38Ak9GT

The stimulus bill President Biden signed on Thursday includes a larger increase in direct payments to families than any other pandemic relief bill passed yet. By some estimates, the bill could cut child poverty in half this year.

Here's who will benefit. nyti.ms/3eC9cIS
The coming stimulus payments are larger for adults than in the first two rounds — $1,400 per adult, compared with $1,200 per adult in a bill passed in March 2020 and $600 per adult in December.

Here's how the aid will flow to families with no children. nyti.ms/2OmheLo Image
Families with children will benefit the most. The aid will come via a big increase in stimulus payments per child, and a larger child tax credit that will benefit the lowest-income families in particular. nyti.ms/2OmheLo Image

The U.S. government’s ubiquitous rating system for nursing homes is broken, painting a badly distorted picture of the quality of care at countless facilities, a New York Times investigation has found. nyti.ms/2PROYQY
More than 1000 nursing homes kept their five-star ratings, even after inspectors found instances of possible abuse and neglect. nyti.ms/3t9MUlI
The consequences of the flawed rating system turned truly tragic when the coronavirus hit. Our investigation found that residents of five-star facilities were roughly as likely to die of Covid-19 as those at one-star homes. nyti.ms/3t9MUlI

Shifts in Atlantic currents hint at danger.

In today’s print New York Times, a vivid two-page map showing how the warming atmosphere is changing currents in the Atlantic Ocean, which scientists fear could have devastating climate ramifications. nyti.ms/2OKw129 Image
The Gulf Stream has shaped climate and history on four continents. Its currents swing west from Africa, influencing weather from Caracas to Miami to Europe.

Some scientists believe that melting Greenland ice will tip the balance of hot and cold that defines the North Atlantic. Image
Underwater sensors are tracking this delicate balance of heat and cold, saltwater and freshwater. The sensors reveal the hidden workings of ocean circulation where scientists are watching for weakening across the North Atlantic. nyti.ms/3sPdBMe Image

Do you have questions about taxes? New rules, many of them temporary, give taxpayers breaks that can cut their bills or even generate extra refunds this year. We answered questions that are most likely to arise as you file. nyti.ms/3bF46d2
For those who worked remotely last year, there may not be a work from home deduction. “Employees who receive a paycheck or a W-2 exclusively from an employer are not eligible for the deduction, even if they are currently working from home,” the IRS said. nyti.ms/3bF46d2
People who received unemployment should get Form 1099-G, showing how much unemployment income they received and any taxes withheld, which should be used to fill out your tax return. nyti.ms/3bF46d2

Governments and automakers around the world are focused on selling newer, cleaner electric vehicles as a key solution to climate change.

But it could take years, if not decades, before it has a drastic effect on greenhouse gas emissions.

Here’s why. nyti.ms/3l5hMRw
There are 250 million cars, SUVs, vans and pickup trucks on America’s roads today. The vast majority run on gasoline. Fewer than 1% are electric. nyti.ms/3l5hMRw
Electric vehicles could make up a quarter of new sales by 2035, analysts project.

But at that point, only 13% of vehicles on the road would be electric because conventional cars and trucks are becoming more reliable and lasting longer on the road. nyti.ms/3l5hMRw
