“In this phase where we see a light at the end of the tunnel … that this too shall pass, it is also perhaps the most difficult and challenging phase of all,” Newsom said.

The following day, he was informed he had tested positive for COVID-19 when he called the jail to inquire about his belongings....

The California Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board (OSHSB) revised a rule that distinguished vaccinated and unvaccinated employees. In the measures expected to be approved on Thursday, both sets of workers exposed to COVID-19 will be required to stay home. Vaccinated but asymptomatic workers will have to stay home for 14 days regardless of testing status, a policy currently enacted for unvaccinated workers. Once they arrive back at their work, they will be required to wear a face mask and stay six feet away from others....

When first playing Mauer Der Toten, gamers will likely find that it is a bit more difficult than Die Maschine and Firebase Z. This is largely because of the many mini bosses that will be spawning into Berlin. While Megatons were tough, they rarely attacked, giving players a breather. Further, though Mimics and Manglers spawned often, they were easy to take down. In Mauer Der Toten, though, Krasny Soldats and Disciples can be formidable, making training a genuine challenge....

Orda encounters were added to the Outbreak mode during Season 3, and they see the massive monster having a chance to spawn in one of the Ural Mountains’ many regions. If it does appear, its icon will be seen moving around the map, with players needing to decide if they will battle the boss or avoid it as they work on their other objectives. Considering that Orda moves around on its own, though, those looking to attack it can find themselves at a disadvantage depending on where they are fighting....

The first mention of a change sees the iconic RC-XD streak being given a minor buff, allowing the explosive car to destroy sentry gun turrets in one detonation instead of two. A more minor tweak sees an issue regarding the Cruise Missile’s voiceover not playing, while a more noticeable alteration to the Napalm Strike has been made. The streak has been nerfed by quite a bit, as the explosive radius has been lowered by 16% and the damage has been reduced according to the patch notes....

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is adding two new guns through the Season 4 battle pass, as the C58 Assault Rifle and MG38 LMG will be coming to the game. With the former resembling the FAL and the latter adding to the lacking LMG lineup, fans are understandably excited for the guns.

As such, once they have turned on the hidden song once, they should have no problem replaying the track in their future matches....

While Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War players will get a handful of armored undead to fight in the low-mid rounds, high round players will be swarmed with them. This is even more obvious in Outbreak, as armored zombies completely cover the regions that players are exploring once they reach some of the higher world tiers. Fortunately, a Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War video has made a video that shows the best possible approach for killing the stronger zombies....
