[1/5] Dec 17, 2022; Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA; Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (4) scores on a touchdown reception as Indianapolis Colts safety Rodney McLeod (26) and safety Julian Blackmon (32) pursue late during the fourth quarter at U.S. Bank Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Jeffrey Becker-USA TODAY SportsDec 17 (Reuters) - The Minnesota Vikings pulled off the biggest comeback in National Football League history on Saturday when they rallied from a 33-0 halftime deficit to beat the visiting Indianapolis Colts 39-36 in overtime. The previous record for the biggest comeback in NFL history was set by the Buffalo Bills in 1993 when they erased a 35-3 third quarter deficit to beat the Houston Oilers 41-38 in overtime of a wild card playoff game. The victory also handed Indianapolis quarterback Ryan the dubious distinction of having been on the losing end of both the largest comeback in Super Bowl history and NFL history.

☆ Tyson Foods ends COVID-19 vaccine mandate for employees
▼ + stars: | 2022-11-16 | by ( Tom Polansek | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

The requirement "generally improved our ability to operate our business effectively in fiscal 2022," the report said. America's largest meatpacking union, the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union, said it negotiated an agreement with Arkansas-based Tyson to end the mandate. He added that Tyson kept other safety protocols like requiring workers to self-screen for COVID-19 symptoms. Some Tyson workers remain worried about catching COVID-19 in chicken plants, said Magaly Licolli, director of Venceremos, an organization that advocates for poultry workers in Arkansas. "There is still the pandemic," said Licolli, who has criticized Tyson for not protecting plant employees.
