** 3-5
------------------------------------------------------------

STEM talent, particularly digital talent, should refresh their skills every 3 to 5 years using rotations inside the federal government, tours in the private sector, and continuous training and education to increase career flexibility in the U.S. defense enterprise.

** 3 out of 4
------------------------------------------------------------

Three out of every four new and emerging human diseases are expected to be zoonotic in origin. However, bacteria are rapidly evolving to resist the medical and veterinary treatments—antibiotics and antimicrobials—that have been developed to control them.

** 237 meters
------------------------------------------------------------

The first of China’s new Type 075 landing helicopter dock (LHD) appears to have recently embarked on a second round of sea trials—this time in the South China Sea. The vessel measures an estimated 237 meters in length and displaces between 35,000 and 40,000 tons, making it one of the largest amphibious assault ships in the world.

** $213.5 billion
------------------------------------------------------------

The CSIS Economics Program estimates that major international financial institutions (IFIs) have approved $213.5 billion in Covid-19 related support since January 27. However, the pace of announced IFI funding approvals declined across institutions in October, reaching the lowest level since the beginning of the pandemic.
