We’re covering a new leader for Tokyo’s Olympics after an uproar over sexism, why Facebook blocked news for Australian users and desperate measures after winter storms in Texas. By Melina Delkic Seiko Hashimoto, president of the Tokyo Olympic organizing committee, on Thursday. Pool photo by Yuichi Yamazaki After sexist remark, a new Tokyo Olympics leader is named Seiko Hashimoto, one of Japan’s two female cabinet ministers, [is the new head of the Tokyo Olympic organizing committee](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRiEVrFP4QQAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjEvMDIvMTgvd29ybGQvYXNpYS95b3NoaXJvLW1vcmktdG9reW8tb2x5bXBpY3Mtc2Vpa28taGFzaGltb3RvLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NyZlbWM9ZWRpdF91bmRlZmluZWRfcF8yMDIxMDIxOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0yNzI1MiZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VjdGlvbj10b3BOZXdzJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NTE5MTgmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmAtxdUuYFpc87pSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~). Her appointment was in response to intense criticism following the resignation of Yoshiro Mori, who stepped down after saying that women talked too much in meetings. The man the committee had initially planned to turn to next — Mr. Mori’s handpicked choice — is an 84-year-old former leader of Japanese soccer. Ms. Hashimoto, 56, an Olympic medalist in speedskating, said her first priority would be to protect against the coronavirus at the Summer Games so that “both the Japanese people and people from abroad will think that the Tokyo Games are safe and secure.” Bigger picture: The shift reflected the potent voice that Japanese people, especially women, have found on social media, and many saw it as an achievement in mobilizing young activists. Others dismissed it as a cosmetic decision that was unlikely to empower women. Quotable: “In the past, he would have been just criticized, and then the issue would have ended,” said Kazuyo Katsuma, a businesswoman and author of best-selling books on gender and work-life balance. Australia’s treasurer at a news conference in Canberra on Thursday. Mick Tsikas/Australian Associated Press, via Reuters Facebook’s news blackout in Australia Australians woke up on Thursday to a shock on Facebook: The news was gone. Rather than pay publishers for stories, a requirement under new legislation, [the tech giant wiped the site of information](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRiEVrFP4QAAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjEvMDIvMTgvYnVzaW5lc3MvbWVkaWEvZmFjZWJvb2stYXVzdHJhbGlhLW5ld3MuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD03JmVtYz1lZGl0X3VuZGVmaW5lZF9wXzIwMjEwMjE4Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTI3MjUyJm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWN0aW9uPXRvcE5ld3Mmc2VnbWVudF9pZD01MTkxOCZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYC3F1S5gWlzzulIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA). But Australians soon discovered it wasn’t just news sites. Pages for state health departments, the meteorology bureau, politicians, nonprofits and more were wiped clean. More frightening was what remained: pages dedicated to aliens and U.F.O.s; one for a community group called “Say No to Vaccines”; and plenty of conspiracy theories. Facebook initially blamed the proposed law, expected to pass soon, and later promised to restore vital public service pages. Divided views: Most Australians were outraged, but for different reasons. Some blame Facebook, saying the tech giant has too much market power; some fault the law, which they call too broad; and others say it might be for the best and may help small news publishers swallowed up by big tech. Analysis: “Australia is an unwitting test lab for what happens to Facebook, news organizations and the public when Facebook is a news desert,” [says Shira Ovide](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRiEVrFP4QFAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjEvMDIvMTgvdGVjaG5vbG9neS93aG8td2lucy10aGUtb25saW5lLWNvcm5lci1zdG9yZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfdW5kZWZpbmVkX3BfMjAyMTAyMTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MjcyNTImbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlY3Rpb249dG9wTmV3cyZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTUxOTE4JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpgLcXVLmBaXPO6Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~), writer of our On Tech newsletter.

Health officials in Hong Kong said the first million doses of the vaccine, called CoronaVac, would arrive on Friday and that vaccinations would start next week with essential workers and people over 60. Hong Kong is one of only a few governments in Asia to have approved CoronaVac for use. Other countries have said they want full trial data from the manufacturer. A recent poll showed Hong Kongers would prefer the Pfizer vaccine, expected to be available there in late February. Context: Brazilian officials in January said that the efficacy rate of CoronaVac was just over 50 percent, lower than other vaccines. Sinovac gave government-appointed experts in Hong Kong data showing a 62.3 percent efficacy rate. The data was not released publicly.

For months after all of the restaurant dining rooms in the city were ordered to close last March, I wrote nothing that resembled a review. The entire business and all of the people in it were suffering, and I spent my time as a reporter finding out how some of them were getting along. Pete Wells’s review of the restaurant Falansai was his first based solely on takeout and delivery. Adam Friedlander for The New York Times Before the pandemic, I normally called chefs after I’d written a review of their restaurant but before it was published, to check facts. The chefs usually sounded as if I were calling with the results of a lab test. The conversations I had last spring were different. They talked about going bankrupt, they talked about crying and not wanting to get out of bed. What did they have left to lose by talking to me? By June, the crisis had settled into a kind of desperate stability. On the day outdoor dining began, I rode my bike into Manhattan to have lunch at the first open restaurant I could find. I was as thrilled to eat someone else’s cooking as I was to do something that resembled my old job. It still took a few weeks before I wrote any reviews. At first, I worried that any opinion of mine would be unfair when restaurants were trying so hard to adapt to the new reality. Eventually, I understood that was exactly what would make the reviews worth writing. Good food in a pandemic was great; great food seemed like a miracle, and I was finding great food all around.
