following claims from his team that Covid vaccines were linked to the deaths of at least 10 children.

just fixed the OEIL scraper (again!), someone who needs to justify their EU bureaucrat salary and pension had spent the (half) effort and renamed some (not all) css classes starting with "erpl_" to "es_", which of course we use in our xpath expressions and which thusly broke.

Whole-food diet adherence means you really can eat much more and be well-nourished but still consume far fewer calories
Research led by scientists at the University of Bristol and co-authored by top US nutritional experts reveals that people following a completely unprocessed diet ate more than 50% greater amounts of food than those eating just UPFs (ultra-processed food), yet still consumed on average 330 fewer calories from food daily.

Im using case_when() quite a lot, case_match() is new to me: #rstats

A general vectorised switch() — case_match
This function allows you to vectorise multiple switch() statements. Each case is evaluated sequentially and the first match for each element determines the corresponding value in the output vector. If no cases match, the .default is used. case_match() is an R equivalent of the SQL "simple" CASE WHEN statement. Connection to case_when() While case_when() uses logical expressions on the left-hand side of the formula, case_match() uses values to match against .x with. The following two statement…
