TODAY

The end seems nigh for Mariupol as a Ukrainian commander pleads for
international assistance. A New Jersey diocese has reached one of the biggest
abuse settlements in U.S. history. Shanghai’s COVID lockdown seems to have done
the trick and the city is gradually reopening for business. And Netflix is
scrambling for solutions after its first subscriber loss in over a decade. All
this and more in today’s PDB.



IMPORTANT

‘We Have Hours Left’

MARIUPOL MARINE COMMANDER PLEADS FOR HELP

In a video sent to the BBC, Major Serhiy Volyna, a commander holed up in a steel
mill that’s the last Ukrainian stronghold in Mariupol, insisted his troops would
not surrender to Moscow. “This is our last address to the world. It may be our
last one ever. It is possible that we have just days or hours left,” he said.
“We call on world leaders to help us … to organize an extraction to take us to a
third country.” Elsewhere, Russia continued its assault on Ukraine’s eastern
front, but U.K. intelligence said Ukraine had fought them off in several places.

Better Than Nothing

NEW JERSEY DIOCESE REACHES $87.5 MILLION ABUSE SETTLEMENT

The Diocese of Camden agreed the settlement with around 300 alleged victims of
clerical abuse. The agreement still has to be approved by a U.S. bankruptcy
judge, as the diocese filed for bankruptcy in 2020 after New Jersey relaxed the
statute of limitations on abuse by members of the clergy. The potential payout —
already one of the U.S. Catholic church’s largest — could get even bigger
because the settlement doesn’t restrict plaintiffs from pursuing insurance
companies and affiliated schools. “I pledge my continuing commitment to ensure
that this terrible chapter … never happens again,” said Bishop Dennis Sullivan.

Turning Tide

SHANGHAI SEEMS TO BE GETTING A HANDLE ON COVID

China’s biggest city reported no new COVID-19 cases outside of two quarantined
districts Wednesday, raising hopes that the strict lockdown which began in early
March has borne fruit. “The city's epidemic situation in recent days has shown a
downward trend,” said health official Wu Qianyu. “Community spread has been
effectively curbed.” While 16.3 million people are still not allowed to leave
their apartments or housing compounds, 7.85 million can return to factories or
walk outside. Economic recovery tops the agenda. Electric car manufacturer Tesla
was one of 666 firms given the greenlight by Chinese authorities to continue
work or resume operations. (Source: Reuters)

Streamer Shock

NETFLIX LOSES 200K SUBSCRIBERS, SHARES DROP 25%

For the first time in over a decade, Netflix lost subscribers — prompting shares
to drop from $348 to $260 in an hour. The loss can partly be explained by the
streaming service’s decision to withdraw from Russia (a move that cost them
700,000 subscribers), but the company acknowledged choppy waters ahead by
projecting losses of a further 2 million subscribers in the upcoming quarter.
Netflix will start cracking down on users sharing passwords, and might also be
forced into offering a cheaper, ad-supported service. “They are in no-(wo) man’s
land,” wrote Aptus Capital Advisors analyst David Wagner. (Source: AP)

Briefly

HERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT TODAY: 

Will they, won’t they? The Biden administration announced it will appeal the
district court ruling that saw the federal mask mandate on public transportation
lifted — but only if the CDC asks it to. (Source: NYT) Crappy birthday. Zimbabwe
celebrated the 42nd anniversary of its independence with marching bands and
skydiving displays — but for many there was little to celebrate after four
decades of political strife and economic pain. (Source: Al Jazeera) Peaceful no
more. At least one person was killed when Sri Lankan police fired on protesters
with live rounds. The nation is grappling with its worst economic crisis since
independence in 1948. (Source: BBC)

INTRIGUING

Women’s Worth

THE AMERICAN TOWNS WHERE YOUNG WOMEN OUTEARN MEN

Recent Pew Research Center analysis shows that in Wenatchee, Washington, women
in the 16-29 age bracket earn 20% more than their male peers. In fact, young
women earn the same or better than men in 22 of the 250 metros surveyed. Report
author Richard Fry said, “In metros where young women have a bigger advantage
educationally, the pay gap tends to be smaller.” This explains why college towns
like Morgantown, West Virginia, and Gainesville, Florida, feature so high on the
list. Meanwhile in Elkhart-Goshen, Indiana — the “RV capital of the world”
according to Fry — women earn 67 cents to every male dollar. (Source: BBC)

Going Postal

UKRAINIANS CLAMOR FOR SPECIAL ‘RUSSIAN WARSHIP, GO...!’ STAMP

On Day One of Putin’s invasion, Snake Island border guard Roman Hrybov became an
instant hero for uttering the immortal words, “Russian warship, go f***
yourself!” Now his act of defiance has been commemorated by the Ukrainian postal
service, Ukrposhta, with a million copies of a special edition stamp showing a
Ukrainian soldier giving the middle-finger salute to a Russian cruiser. Long
queues snaked from Kyiv’s central post office and a scuffle broke out when one
woman attempted to jump the line. “People are in love with it. It reflects the
mood around the world towards Russia,” said Ukrposhta director Igor Smelyansky.

VANCOUVER HUMPBACK ATTACKS POD OF KILLER WHALES

Whale-watching tourists got more than they bargained for when a humpback whale
nicknamed Valiant went on the offensive against a pod of nine Bigg’s orcas in
the Salish Sea. Two families of killer whales who’d joined forces to attack the
humpback were forced to retreat after Valiant fought them off by rolling and
trumpeting. While video footage of such encounters is rare, around 25% of
humpbacks in the area have had run-ins with orcas. Marine ecologist Robert
Pitman noted, “The humpback whale is, to our knowledge, the only cetacean that
deliberately approaches attacking mammal-eating killer whales and can drive them
off.” (Source: Vancouver Sun)

Alarm Bells

MYSTERIOUS HEPATITIS CASES IN YOUNG CHILDREN HAVE EXPERTS WORRIED

Scientists in the U.S., U.K. and Spain have reported an unexplained spike in
cases of severe hepatitis — liver inflammation — in children under 10. Although
no children have died, 74 childhood cases were identified in the U.K., including
seven who required liver transplants. There have also been nine cases in Alabama
and three in Spain. As the cases aren’t linked to the hepatitis A, B, C or E
virus, scientists expect an adenovirus, one that typically causes colds, may be
culpable. “Seeing children with severe [hepatitis] in the absence of severe
underlying health problems is very rare,” said Alabama pediatrician Karen
Lander. (Source: The Scientist)

‘I Was Groomed’

CYCLING STAR BRADLEY WIGGINS BREAKS LONG SILENCE ON CHILDHOOD ABUSE

In a wide-ranging interview with Men’s Health U.K., the Tour de France champion
and four-time Olympic gold medalist revealed that he was groomed by a childhood
coach. “I was about 13,” he said. “And I never fully accepted that.” In
pre-publication excerpts Wiggins confirmed the grooming was of a sexual nature
but gave no details about the coach. “It all impacted me as an adult… I buried
it,” he explained. “My stepfather was quite violent to me, he used to call me a
f****t for wearing Lycra and stuff, so I didn’t think I could tell him.”
