Charlie Kirk is conflating the issue mentioned in the photo he himself shared. As the post in the attached photo states, the household in question has received several applications to request a mail-in ballot for the upcoming election, but not ballots themselves, as Kirk falsely states.

Ahead of the state’s June 2 primary election, officials in New Mexico are urging eligible voters to cast ballots by mail to reduce the risk of coronavirus transmission. Voters have responded in kind with a massive increase in requests submitted, and thousands of ballots have already been completed and returned.

An often-cited Veterans’ Administration study on the effects of hydroxychloroquine usage in United States patients hospitalized with COVID-19 revealed that it could potentially kill people with the virus and its associated respiratory ailments. In the study, cited by Neil Cavuto (the subject of Mitchell’s tweet) on his Fox News show, the group of patients who took the drug, with or without the arithromycin drug accompaniment, had a higher rate of death than the group of patients that did not. The study underscores the need for more studies of the drug.

Muslims are not breaking India’s lockdown rules to offer ‘namaaz’ prayers on the streets. Delhi Police confirmed this was an old video being circulated on social media with malicious intent. The original tweet has since been deleted.

As a group, children have been relatively spared by COVID-19, but some have fallen ill, violently so in some cases, and others have died. A three-day-old baby in the UK is believed to be the youngest coronavirus victim in the world.

New research suggests the virus may behave differently in children than in adults. Over the past week, children have been hospitalized in many different locations, including some in New York City with a multi-system inflammatory disease. A clinical report published in Frontiers in Pediatrics describes five children in China who were admitted to the hospital with non-respiratory symptoms but who turned out to have the virus, including its characteristic lung abnormalities.

Most parts of the country have some form of restrictions on normal life. Residents in at least 42 states and the District of Columbia have been ordered to stay at home. Some of these stay at home orders have expired, but no governor has “opened it all up” as Nanjiani claims. Four states – Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota and South Dakota – have no stay-at-home orders currently in place, but have taken other steps, such as shutting down schools and other aspects of public life.

A Post-UMD poll also found that Americans widely oppose reopening the country.

There is no relationship between a state’s political leanings and how much it contributes or receives from the federal government on net.

An analysis by the Rockefeller Institute of Government of how much states give and get in federal support shows that eight states (some blue and some red) get less from the federal government than they contribute, while several states (some blue and some red) are net beneficiaries. For example, as the Washington Post’s Philip Bump wrote, taxpayers in Connecticut (a blue state) get 84 cents back for every dollar they contribute, while taxpayers in Kentucky get $2.41 for each dollar.

There is no evidence that states are reporting a higher death toll or that they are doing so to get more federal funding. In fact, New York has nearly half the deaths recorded in the U.S. but only received $4.3 billion in the $2 trillion CARES Act, despite pleas for more support from Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Sen. Chuck Schumer.

Experts, including Dr Anthony Fauci, say the official death toll is likely to be an undercount (rather than an over-count) because the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will need to keep revising its guidelines on how to confirm and certify coronavirus-related deaths as pandemic activity evolves in the country.

The Singapore Police Force announced on Tuesday that the clip was not recorded in Singapore. Government officials are speculating that the video may have been shot some time ago in Saudi Arabia or the United Arab Emirates.

However, foreign workers in the country do face dismal living conditions and poor treatment, and the purported site of the video – Tuas Dormitory – is one such example.

Election fraud involving mail-in ballots is very rare. Currently, about one in four Americans votes by mail in federal elections and it is also the primary method of voting in five states (Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon, Utah and Washington).

It is true that mail-in voting is more susceptible to fraud than in-person voting and ballots may be forged, intercepted in the mail or harvested in favor of one candidate. However, as the Brennan Center points out, states can easily enhance election security, using strategies such as identity verification, ballot tracking and severe criminal or civil penalties.

On Monday, the Health Ministry admitted in a press release that 319 people had been diagnosed with pneumonia at one hospital alone in the capital city of Dushanbe. The surge in pneumonia cases aligns with similar outbreaks of the virus around the world.

In the past few days, Prime Minister Kokhir Rasulzoda closed schools, theaters and cinemas, suspended mass gatherings such as football games and banned several food exports. Personnel from the Interior Ministry have also been dispatched around the capital to disinfect buildings, sidewalks and parks. The government has also accepted millions of dollars in emergency aid and personal protective equipment from international aid organizations and foreign governments.
