The data, from New York state, show a rapid and substantial decline in protection after vaccination in children in the younger age group, with efficacy against infections dropping off more quickly and dramatically than the declines seen in children aged 12 to 17.

Aretha Franklins granddaughters Idol audition leads to debate with judges – CNN

Grace Franklin, whose grandmother is the late Aretha Franklin, learned that after she auditioned for the singing competition. The 15-year-old appeared in Sunday's episode of "Idol" and sang the Lauryn Hill version of the Roberta Flack hit "Killing Me Softly," as well as her grandmother's hit "Ain't No Way." "I got to see her all the time. I used to travel with her a lot," the teen said. "I don't think I could fully grasp the fact that she was known worldwide, because to me, she was always just grandma."

Bryan voted no to Franklin continuing through to the next round, with Perry voting yes. That left it up to Richie to decide. "Grace Franklin, I lo...

Maksim Chmerkovskiy says he was arrested in Ukraine amid Russian invasion – Page Six

Maksim Chmerkovskiy is still trying to leave Ukraine. The “Dancing With the Stars” alum posted a video to Instagram early Monday in which he told his followers that he was arrested in his home country amid Russia’s invasion and is figuring out how to get out. “[There’s] a lot of fighting everywhere.
