"The Daily Show" host Trevor Noah says a New York City hospital and doctor botched an operation last year, causing “permanent” and “severe” injuries that have left him disabled. huffpost.com/entry/trevor-n…
In a lawsuit obtained by People on Sunday, Noah accused Dr. Riley J. Williams III and the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan of being “negligent and careless in failing to treat and care for [for him] in a skillful manner.” huffpost.com/entry/trevor-n…
Noah’s lawsuit also alleged his injuries are “permanent, severe and grievous” and leave him “lame” and “disabled.” huffpost.com/entry/trevor-n…
The suit gave no details about the surgery or diagnosis, according to the New York Post’s Page Six, but Williams’s bio indicates he is an orthopedic surgeon specializing in the knee, shoulder and elbow. huffpost.com/entry/trevor-n…
Omicron has raced ahead of other variants and is now the dominant version of COVID in the U.S., accounting for 73% of new infections last week, federal health officials said Monday. huffpost.com/entry/omicron-…
Researchers around the world are working tirelessly to learn everything they can about this newest iteration of the virus, which boasts a “Frankenstein mix” of mutations, including more than 30 on the all-important spike protein. huffpost.com/entry/omicron-…
Right now, there are still more questions than answers about the variant. We do know that there has been a surge of cases in recent days, and experts believe the variant is more transmissible. huffpost.com/entry/omicron-…
It’s Black Friday and millions of Americans are dropping cash on some of the biggest shopping deals of the year.
But the distinctions between Black Friday and Cyber Monday will be blurred as shoppers ditch risky in-store shopping for online deals. huffpost.com/entry/best-bla…
So why do we give special names to these two days following Thanksgiving anyway? And what is the difference between them?
Here’s what you need to know about shopping on Black Friday vs. Cyber Monday, especially amid the pandemic. huffpost.com/entry/black-fr…
While Black Friday ads are now “leaked” as early as late October, the same isn’t necessarily true for Cyber Monday.
“We might not see Cyber Monday ads at all, but if we do, they’ll most likely come out the weekend before,” said Julie Ramhold, a consumer analyst at DealNews.
Thanksgiving for Corinne Oestreich growing up was what it is for most children ― with one important distinction. "My family worked really hard to keep the narrative of the dinner between Indians and Pilgrims out of it," she writes. huffpost.com/entry/native-a…
As a Lakota and Mohawk living in an established settler community like the Bay Area, the only time Oestreich was exposed to the story of a dinner between Pilgrims and Indians was when she was in elementary school. huffpost.com/entry/native-a…
When Oestreich and her brother got older, they sought information from elders about Thanksgiving and their cultures. “We wanted to honor our ancestors with respectful knowledge and practice,” she says. However, they had to fight the "anger that came creeping in along with it."
At least six Republicans who attended the Jan. 6 rally in Washington, D.C., that turned into a deadly insurrection were elected to office Tuesday. Three were elected to state legislatures, and three won positions at the local level. huffpost.com/entry/january-…
Although most have claimed they didn’t breach the U.S. Capitol on that day, all were participants in the demonstration leading up to the attack, an event falsely claiming then-President Donald Trump hadn’t really lost the 2020 election.
Their victories on Tuesday are a possible sign of things to come: HuffPost previously identified at least 57 state and local GOP officials who attended the Jan. 6 rally, many of whom will be up for reelection — and will likely keep office — next year. huffpost.com/entry/57-gop-o…
The Texas Medical Board took “corrective action” last month against a doctor-minister who prescribed hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 without adequately explaining the consequences to the patient, @HoustonChron reported. huffpost.com/entry/stella-i…
Dr. Stella Immanuel made international news last year when she called hydroxychloroquine a “cure” for COVID-19 in a viral video shared by then-President Donald Trump. She told the Chronicle in August 2020 that she had treated more than 400 patients with it.

Clinical trials had shown the anti-malarial drug to be ineffective against COVID-19, and health experts cautioned the public against taking it as a COVID treatment due to associated health risks, including heart problems.
It’s been one month since Brian Laundrie’s family members say they last saw the 23-year-old, who is a person of interest in his girlfriend Gabby Petito’s death. Here’s what we’ve learned. huffpost.com/entry/brian-la…
The FBI searched his family home.
Federal agents took several of Laundrie’s items as evidence and returned again nearly a week later, reportedly to collect samples of his DNA. huffpost.com/entry/brian-la…
A warrant is out for his arrest.
About a week after Laundrie’s parents reported him missing, federal officials indicted him for the unauthorized use of a debit card to make withdrawals of more than $1,000 during the period that Petito went missing. huffpost.com/entry/brian-la…
