          Millions left #Wuhan, China before #coronavirus quarantine. So where did they go? @AP’s @ekinetz, using location data from Baidu, the Chinese mapping, showed how the travel patterns out of Wuhan broadly track with the early spread of the virus.https://bit.ly/3nTFy37

          Who got the early PPP loans? The SBA refused to say. By combing through thousands of regulatory filings, the @AP was first to identify publicly traded companies who got millions in low-interest, taxpayer-backed loans. @ReeseDunklin and @lalanewsmanhttps://bit.ly/3ra5xWI

          In one of the weirdest stories of the year, @APjoshgoodman revealed that a ragtag group of combatants led by a former Green Beret planned to invade Venezuela and capture President Nicolás Maduro. What could go wrong? Almost everything.https://bit.ly/2J1PYyI

          @rplardner and @JHDearen shined a light on questionable contracts the Trump administration signed as part of its COVID-19 response. This one detailed an ill-fated multi-million study to see if the heartburn treatment Pepcid would fight the virus.https://bit.ly/2Kk647N

          @ReeseDunklin and @MikeRezendes found that the Catholic Church was one of the largest recipients of PPP loans. Long before the pandemic, scores of dioceses faced increasing financial pressure because of a dramatic rise in recent clergy sex abuse claims. https://bit.ly/33dJxjf

          The story of SEAL Team 7 being pulled from Iraq in 2019 has been previously reported — but documents obtained by @JimLaPorta through FOIA and nearly a dozen interviews gave the first in-depth view into what led to that rare recall. w/ @watson_juliehttps://bit.ly/36OYLw8

          An @AP investigation into how Peru bet on rapid antibody tests went dangerously off course. The tests cannot detect early COVID-19 infections, making it hard to quickly identify and isolate the sick.https://bit.ly/3lzW5s7
