The 21-year-old athlete, who came in second at the 2022 US National Championships just last month, has tested positive for COVID-19. Click inside to read more… Vincent had been scheduled to compete in the men’s short program on Tuesday morning in Beijing, and needed to test negative twice to participate in the event. “Olympic silver medalist Vincent Zhou announced tonight that he will be unable to compete in the men’s competition at the 2022 Olympic Winter Games due to testing positive for COVID-19,” a spokesman for U.S.

Figure Skating said in a statement. Additionally, an alternate is not able to take over that third spot for the US Olympic team, because Vincent withdrew too late in the process. Vincent addressed the heartbreaking news in a video to fans on Instagram, saying that “it seems pretty unreal that of all the people, it would happen to myself, and that’s not just because I’m still processing this turn of events but also because I have been doing everything in my power to stay free of covid since the start of the pandemic.” While his Olympic experience has been a mix of sad notes, there is one happy thing that did come from it – being named a silver medalist with the US team for the Team Event over the weekend.

He shared that he’d “already lost count of the number of times I cried today. At least one of those times was happy tears and that was when I found out that I became an Olympic silver medalist and I think that wraps things up nicely on a positive note.” Nathan Chen and Jason Brown will rep the US for the Men’s Ice Skating events later this week.

Cardinal calls for UNHRC intervention for justice for Easter Attacks victims

COLOMBO (News 1st); The Head of Sri Lanka’s Catholic Church, His Eminence Malcolm Cardinal Rajith has called on the support of the UHNRC to intervene to uncover the truth behind the Easter Sunday Attacks of 2019 and mete out justice to the victims.“The Easter Sunday suicide bomb attacks in Sri Lanka on the 21st of April 2019 claimed the lives of 269 people including 82 children, and 47 foreign nationals belonging to 14 nations and injured more than 500 others,” said His Eminence to the 49th Regular Session of the United Nations Human Rights Council.He said the first impression of the massacre was that it was purely the work of a few Islamist extremists. However, subsequent investigations indicate that this massacre was part of a grand political plot, he added.The Head of the Catholic Church said that despite repeated requests the incumbent government of Sri Lanka has failed to mete out justice to the victims.“Instead of uncovering the truth behind the attack and prosecuting those responsible, there are attempts to harass and intimate those who call for justice,” he said.His Eminence also noted that “as a result nearly three years after the horrendous crime were are still in the dark as to what really happened on that Easter Sunday.”“As this is a serious violation of the fundamental rights of the aggrieved victims, we earnestly call upon the UNHRC and its member countries to support the continuation of evidence gathering initiated by the council last year and to devise the means to ensure an impartial investigation to unravel the truth behind the Easter Sunday massacre,” he noted.
