 Carrick favourite for Man Utd caretaker role Michael Carrick has emerged as favourite to be appointed Manchester United caretaker head coach, according to sources close to the process. Club chiefs are hoping to have an appointment in place for when players return to training on Wednesday. While a final decision is yet to be reached, talks are said to have progressed with the 44-year-old over the position. Carrick previously had a three-game stint as United's temporary boss following Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's dismissal in 2021. He won two and drew one of those matches but left after Ralf Rangnick's arrival as interim manager. Solskjaer held face-to-face discussions with the club on Saturday about a return. United sacked Ruben Amorim as manager after 14 months in the job on 5 January. Darren Fletcher, a former United and Scotland midfielder, was initially handed temporary responsibility for first-team affairs following Amorim's departure. United suffered an FA Cup third-rou...

 U.S will not observe World AIDS Day this year, State Department says

The federal government will not take part in this year’s World AIDS Day, an annual observance held every Dec. 1 since 1988 to honor those who have died from the disease and raise awareness.

The State Department has instructed employees and grant recipients not to use federal funds to commemorate the day. While staff may continue to highlight work on AIDS and other diseases, they are directed to avoid publicly promoting World AIDS Day in any official messaging. A department spokesperson said the focus is on working directly with foreign governments to save lives and increase shared responsibility, rather than symbolic awareness events.

World AIDS Day has long been recognized by U.S. presidents, with President Bill Clinton issuing the first federal proclamation in 1993. Despite this year’s federal non-participation, other commemorative days, including those for autism, organ donation, and cancer, have continued to receive official recognition.

Earlier this year, the Trump administration froze foreign aid spending and later cut roughly $7.9 billion in international humanitarian programs, though funding for HIV and AIDS initiatives remained intact. According to global estimates, 40.8 million people were living with HIV in 2024, with about 1.3 million new infections reported last year.

The United Nations program on AIDS warned that international funding cuts and decreasing commitment could disrupt progress in fighting the virus. While some funding has been restored for the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, which has saved more than 25 million lives since its creation, service disruptions are causing lasting effects across HIV prevention, testing, and treatment. UNAIDS Executive Director Winnie Byanyima emphasized the human toll, noting that children, young women, and entire communities are being left without critical services, calling for continued global support and action.
