The U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ended the pause on Johnson & Johnson’s Covid-19 vaccine on Friday, 10 days after urging providers to hold off while they reviewed serious and rare cases of blood clots. Pharmacies and hospitals are gearing up to resume giving the J&J shot.

Tiger Woods, 45, posted the first photo of himself on Instagram since his car accident in February. He was on crutches and in a walking boot on his home golf practice facility, smiling alongside his dog. Woods suffered severe injuries to his legs in the crash as his car hit a sign and a tree before coming to a stop in the brush.

Donald Trump is discussing plans to move to New Jersey for the summer, according to a person familiar with his thinking. The former U.S. president would spend the summer at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster, about an hour’s drive from Trump Tower in midtown Manhattan. The plans have not been finalized.

The International Space Station’s population swelled to 11 on Saturday, the biggest crowd in more than a decade, with the arrival of SpaceX’s third crew capsule in less than a year, the AP reported.
