If you ever wondered why @McDonalds McFlurry machines are often out of order, you're not alone.

The FTC also wants to know why the fast food chain’s ice cream machine always seems to be broken. bos.gl/lj9xAXE
According to an online map of McDonald’s locations in the US that are unable to serve ice cream products, called Mcbroken.com, 11 percent of the chain’s stores are experiencing technical difficulties. That includes about 20 stores in Massachusetts.
On Wednesday, The Wall Street Journal reported that the FTC reached out to owners of franchise locations to learn more about the issue.

They wrote that the ice cream machines require a “nightly automated heat-cleaning cycle that can last up to four hours to destroy bacteria.”

Joan Donovan's nighttime routine is a little different. She binges white supremacist videos and conspiracy theories on YouTube, sometimes until 2 a.m.

@BostonJoan's nightly ritual is difficult, but essential to her research at Harvard's @Kennedy_School. bos.gl/2tcchLP
At a time when false claims around COVID-19 and politics are running rampant, the former punk-rocker from Saugus has been able to predict what types of disinformation will travel from the darkest corners of the Internet to — in some cases — the highest levels of the government.
Joan was one of the first researchers to predict medical disinformation would upend the fight against COVID. She also saw xenophobia associated with the pandemic on an alt-right YouTube show, weeks before former President Trump called it the “China Virus.” bos.gl/2tcchLP “You had to know about the ...

Virginia Oliver is the oldest licensed lobsterer in Maine. At 101, she rises before dawn three mornings a week to head out for the day’s catch alongside her son, Max. It’s no surprise that when her story ran in the Globe Sunday, it piqued broad interest. bos.gl/qOrTTmj
Oliver said she has no intention of retiring. When asked how long she would continue lobstering, Oliver didn’t miss a beat. “Until I die,” she said. “And I don’t know when that will be.” bos.gl/qOrTTmj
Here’s where it gets juicier than a thick buttered lobster claw. Following the story’s publication, this photo taken by Globe photographer Jessica Rinaldi ended up becoming its own hook. In the photo that has launched a thousand memes, lobsterwoma

💉 As part of the special project #LastBestShot, we’ve dispelled five of the most common myths about COVID-19 vaccines and their origins. Here’s the facts: bostonglobe.com/2021/08/17/met…
MYTH: The COVID-19 vaccines were developed too fast to be safe.

FACTS: The mRNA technology behind the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines had been in development for nearly two decades. In testing the vaccines for safety and efficacy, no corners were cut. Image
MYTH: COVID-19 vaccines alter people’s DNA.

FACTS: The mRNA vaccine cannot affect your DNA because it never gets near it. It enters the cell, but has no access to the nucleus where the DNA is stored. Image

A wintertime conference in downtown Boston and a series of parties at the tip of Cape Cod don’t seem very similar.

But major COVID-19 outbreaks in both settings nearly a year and a half apart dramatically demonstrate the protective value of vaccinations. bos.gl/Ewbqo64
The February 2020 Boston Biogen conference set off a global tidal wave of COVID infections while the outbreak at the Provincetown parties appeared to fizzle with only a handful getting sick enough to be hospitalized.

The big difference? Vaccinations. bos.gl/Ewbqo64 Image
The infamous Boston Biogen conference shares several striking similarities with the July 4th celebrations in Provincetown.

But it appears Provincetown has not become a Biogen 2.0, even though it had the makings of an even bigger super-spreader event. bos.gl/Ewbqo64
