Analysis: Biden’s Handling of Secret Documents Complicates Case Against Trump

President Biden has cooperated with officials, but the cases are similar enough that Democrats will have a hard time using the issue against Donald Trump.

 The Borowitz Report: Minutes after it was revealed that classified documents were found at Mike Pence’s home in Indiana, Donald Trump demanded that his former Vice-President return all of the secret materials to Mar-a-Lago “at once.”

Both Donald Trump and Joe Biden have been sloppy, at the very least. Classified papers should be stored in secure locations, not garages or clubs. The similar discoveries at their premises have crumbled Mr Biden’s moral high ground

• 据俄罗斯大使馆和专门报道朝鲜事务的媒体NK News称，由于不明呼吸道疾病病例的增加，朝鲜当局已下令封锁首都平壤五天。

  大使馆在其脸书上分享了一则通告称，当局“已经建立了一个特殊的抗疫期”，并呼吁外国使团将员工留在室内。该命令还要求每人每天测量四次体温，并通过电话向医院报告结果。

  该通告没有提到新冠病毒（COVID-19）的字眼，但引用了“冬季复发性流感和其他呼吸道疾病的病例增加”。

  周二（1月24日），该网站报导称，平壤居民似乎正在囤积物资，以预防更严格的措施。目前尚不清楚该国其他地区是否实施了新的封锁。

  朝鲜于去年曾承认首次新冠病毒爆发，但到8月已宣布战胜该病毒。

  当局从未确认有多少人感染了新冠病毒，显然是因为它缺乏进行广泛测试的方法。

  相反，平壤报告了每天发烧的人数，在大约2500万人口中，发烧者人数上升到约477万。但自7月29日以来，它没有报告此类案件。

  官方媒体继续报导抗击呼吸道疾病（包括流感）的防疫措施，但尚未报导封锁令。

在席卷中国的新冠感染潮中，许多农村地区家庭受冲击尤为严重。由于医疗设施匮乏，很多在家去世的人未能被统计进入死亡人数。

BBC驻中国记者麦笛文（Stephen McDonell）来到山西北部农村，当地棺材生产商和殡葬业者称，近期的殡葬需求是往年同期的2到3倍。有农民表示，因一座村庄里有数十名老人去世，许多人仅能被用土堆埋葬在农田中。
