 Guinea-Bissau stops vaccine study funded by Trump administration Guinea-Bissau's foreign minister has said his government has stopped a study funded by the Trump administration aiming to evaluate side effects of the life-saving hepatitis B vaccine, including any links to autism. The West African country, one of the region's poorest, has high rates of hepatitis B, and the prospective study had drawn an outcry from scientists and international health bodies because only half the newborns in the trial would get the vaccine at birth. World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Ghebreyesus said it was not ethical. Guinea-Bissau last month suspended the trial pending an ethical review.

 Ex-NFL player, wife arrested amid child abuse investigation; missing 14-year-old son found safe


Former NFL player Daniel Muir and his wife Kristin were arrested after their missing 14-year-old son, Bryson, was found at their residence in Indiana, police said Wednesday.


The Indiana State Police and SWAT team members executed search and arrest warrants at the Muirs’ Logansport residence early Wednesday morning amid an investigation into allegations of child abuse against the teen, authorities said.


Police said Daniel, Kristin and Bryson were discovered at the home. Daniel and Kristin were taken into custody without incident and remanded to the Cass County Jail. Police said Bryson, who appeared to be "safe and well," was put into the care of the Cass County Department of Child Services.


Daniel Muir, 40, was charged with one court of obstruction of justice, a felony, and one count of domestic battery, a misdemeanor. Kristin Muir, 38, was charged with felony obstruction of justice as well.


Police said the investigation into the Muirs remains active, and no further information was going to be released at this time.


A Silver Alert was issued for Bryson last week after the teen’s grandmother called police concerned for his safety. Police launched a child abuse investigation and released a photo showing Bryson with a swollen eye.


The investigation intensified after police said Daniel Muir became uncooperative with the probe.
