China should increase the number of intensive care unit (ICU) beds over the next few years as part of its public health measures, several state agencies recommended in a joint statement published on Monday. The world's second most populous country has gradually increased ICU beds over the years, but critics say its health system remains under-resourced and it was severely stretched after authorities abruptly ended national COVID pandemic restrictions in late 2022. China had only 4.37 ICU beds per 100,000 people in 2021, compared with 34.2 in the United States as of 2015, according to a paper by Shanghai's Fudan School of Public Health.

The top Massachusetts court on Monday is set to consider whether the state's voters will get to decide two ballot proposals in November that would redefine the relationship between app-based companies like Uber Technologies and Lyft and their drivers - one backed by industry and the other by labor. The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court first will hear arguments in a labor-backed challenge to a ballot proposal by an industry-supported group that would ask voters to declare that the drivers for the companies are not employees but rather independent contractors entitled to some new benefits. The court then will hear a challenge by a conservative think tank to a proposed ballot measure supported by the Service Employees International Union's Local 32BJ that would ask voters to allow Uber and Lyft drivers to unionize.
As the Democratic minority leader in a Republican-controlled House of Representatives, Hakeem Jeffries' influence is normally limited. That is because the chamber's embattled speaker, Republican Mike Johnson, is expected to need the support of Jeffries' opposition Democrats to fend off an effort by hardline members of his own party to topple their second party leader in just eight months. A small band of hardline Republicans made history in October when they ousted their speaker from the role for the first time ever, setting off a messy weeks-long leadership fight that brought the chamber to a halt.
