Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson reacted to the recent viral TikTok comparing him to a Morgan County, Ala., sheriff’s lieutenant named Eric Fields.  The "Jungle Cruise" star took to Twitter on Monday and was his typically charming and humble self.  "Oh s--t! Wow," the 49-year-old wrote.  "Guy on the left is way cooler," he said in reference to Fields.  "Stay safe brother and thank you for your service," the action star added. "One day we'll drink @Teremana and I need to hear all your 'Rock stories' because I KNOW you got ‘em [face with tears of joy, smiling face with horns, fisted hand and tumbler glass emojis] #ericfields."

In a joint statement last week, the heads of federal health agencies, including the CDC and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, unveiled a plan to begin allowing all Americans to receive booster shots of the messenger RNA-based vaccines developed by Pfizer ...

The Cocaine Was Laced With Fentanyl. Now Six Are Dead From Overdoses. – The New York Times

SOUTHOLD, N.Y. — The 911 calls to the Southold Town Police Department began to pour in on a Wednesday. And for three days they did not stop. Female, 34, Greenport Village, unresponsive. Male, 25, Southold, unresponsive. Male, 30, Southold, unresponsive. Male, 27, Greenport Village, unresponsive. Male, 32, East Marion, unresponsive. Male, 40, Shelter Island, unresponsive. By Friday at least eight people in the string of small towns along Long Island’s North Fork had overdosed, and six of them — none older than 40 — were dead. Their deaths were caused, police said, by cocaine laced with fentanyl, a synthetic opioid that can be 50 times more powerful than heroin. They left behind a seaside enclave wreathed in grief that feels both familiar and confounding: Nearly 3,000 people have died...

Johnson & Johnsons HIV vaccine fails first efficacy trial – STAT

An HIV vaccine using the same basic technology as Johnson & Johnson’s Covid shot failed to prevent infection, the company said Tuesday, dealing yet another blow to efforts to create a vaccine against the virus. The study, called Imbokodo, enrolled 2,600 women in southern Africa who were at very high risk of HIV infection. J&J and its partners, including the National Institutes of Health and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, launched the study in 2017 and announced that all participants had received either a vaccine or a placebo last year. The goal of the vaccine was not to completely prevent infection, but to reduce the chance of infection by half.“If a vaccine is 50% efficacious it can curb the future of the HIV pandemic,” said Paul Stoffels, J&J’s chief scientific off...

Man testifies against R. Kelly in sex-trafficking trial, claims singer exploited him as a teen – Fox News

After several days of testimony from women claiming they were groomed and sexually abused by R. Kelly, a man took the witness stand at Kelly's sex-trafficking trial in New York City on Monday to say the R&B star exploited him in the same way when he was a high school student. The witness, testifying in federal court in Brooklyn without using his real name, told a jury how Kelly lured him to his Chicago-area home in 2007 with false offers of helping him with his fledgling music career. Kelly asked the alleged victim, then 17, "what I was willing to do for music," the witness said. He replied, "I'll carry your bags. ... Anything you need, I'll be willing to do." "That's not it. That's not it," he said Kelly responded before asking him if he ever fantasized about having sex with men....

Younes Bendjima shares alleged DMs from Scott Disick about Kourtneys PDA – Page Six

Apparently Scott Disick thinks Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s PDA is a bit much. In a plan that truly backfired, Disick appeared to direct message Kardashian’s other ex-boyfriend Younes Bendjima on Instagram looking for support in his horror over her paparazzi-snapped makeout sessions with Travis Barker. Unfortunately, not only did the model, 28, not give Disick, 38, what he was looking for, he also put him on blast by sharing screenshots of the exchange on his Instagram Story. “Yo is this chick ok!???? Broooo like what is this. In the middle of Italy,” Disick appeared to write to Bendjima, attaching a photo of Kardashian, 42, mounting the Blink-182 rocker, 45, on a boat. “Doesn’t matter to me as long as she’s happy,” Bendjima seemed to res...
