Hopefully the COVID-19 nightmare will soon wane, but it’s unlikely to be the last pandemic of our lifetimes. Because the virus that will cause the next pandemic is probably already out there.
Animals carry hundreds of thousands of viruses that have the potential to infect humans. Buffer zones between where people live and where wild animals live lower the risk of viruses jumping from another species to our own. But now human behaviors such as deforestation and urbanization, along with climate change, are erasing those zones.
Today, L.A. Times foreign correspondent Kate Linthicum, who recently traveled to the Amazon rainforest, and national correspondent Emily Baumgaertner, who focuses on medical investigations, explain the issue. And they talk about ways to solve the problem — or at least dial down the risks.

The closure of two independent, Chinese-language media outlets all but completes the push to silence pro-democracy press; we ask what is next for the territory. Sudan’s military seems as uninterested in civilian help with governing as legions of protesters are in military leadership. What could end the standoff? And why sanctions on Iran are affecting the purity of saffron.

Johannes Vermeer was one of the greatest painters of the Dutch Golden Age. Unlike many of his contemporary painters, however, he didn’t leave a large body of work behind.
The painting he did create has left experts in both art and technology wondering if he didn’t have a secret that helped him with his craft. A technical secret, not an artistic one.
Learn more about Vermeer and the question as to if he and other Renaissance painters used optical devices to help themselves paint, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

It's Snowmicron: A snowstorm keeps kids in some states out of school, and officials are considering another shutdown due to the Omicron surge. But fear not, school closures aren't going to impact grades or test scores—because some districts won't record the data it in the first place. AOC skirts the Snowmicron mess in Miami, and starts a national conversation on the plight of attractive people. And there's another storm brewing—this time, over the filibuster.
