The United States military has carried out a series of air strikes in Venezuela and captured President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. The Trump administration has announced plans for U.S. companies to take over oil production with military support and Maduro has been charged with narco-terrorism, cocaine importation, conspiracy and possession of machine guns and destructive devices. Maduro and his wife have both pleaded not guilty.Laurie Blank, a clinical professor of law and director of the International Humanitarian Law Clinic at Emory University, gives an analysis of the unfolding situation, the charges against Maduro and Flores, and the legal context of prosecuting them in U.S. federal court.

 

Also, flu activity continues to rise in Georgia and across the nation. Public health experts are linking many of the cases to a new strain known as Subclade K, also known as the so-called "super flu" — a mutation of influenza A, H3N2. Dr. Jodie Guest, a professor and senior vice chair in the Department of Epidemiology at Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health and School of Medicine, talks more about the new strain and what Georgians can do to protect themselves and their households.
