South Africa seek Stuart Broad help in bid to beat Australia in World Test Championship final
New role: Stuart Broad will take his first foray into coaching with a brief stint helping out South Africa at Lord's on June 9 (Mike Egerton/PA Wire) Former England fast bowler Stuart Broad is set for a short coaching stint with South Africa ahead of the Proteas' World Test Championship final against Australia this month. It is understood Broad - who claimed 604 wickets in 167 Tests, putting him fifth on the all-time list - will join South Africa's squad on June 9 at Lord's and work as a consultant for the day at training. Advertisement This will be Broad's first coaching role, with the 38-year-old having been a television pundit for Sky Sports since retiring from professional cricket at the end of the 2023 Ashes. Broad bowed out in memorable fashion, hitting the last ball he faced for six and then claiming a wicket with his final delivery to help England claim a thrilling 2-2 series draw at the Kia Oval. He was frequently at his best against Australia and finished with 153 wickets against them - the most by any bowler in Tests - which included eight of his 20 five-wicket match hauls and one 10-for. South Africa will be hoping some of Broad's magic can rub off on the likes of Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen in their first appearance in the World Test Championship final, which starts on June 11 at Lord's.

Bill Gates' trip to Singapore falsely linked to 'vaccine mandate' claims
"Singapore passes law to mandate vaccines and jail the unvaccinated -- days after Bill Gates' high-level visit," reads a May 12 post by an Australia-based Facebook page with more than 9,000 followers. The post links to an article with the same headline on "The People's Voice", a dubious website which AFP has repeatedly fact-checked for amplifying Covid-19 misinformation. The site has also previously claimed Gates and the World Health Organization (WHO) were "forcing vaccination", which AFP has debunked here. "Just as Bill Gates and the WHO's Tedros Ghebreyesus wrapped up high-profile visits with the nation's top leaders, sweeping changes were quietly pushed through the country's legal system—changes that now make it a crime to refuse mandatory government vaccines," reads the article, calling the timing "impossible to ignore". Other posts claiming Singapore would mandate vaccines also appeared on X, Facebook and TikTok. But Singapore's Ministry of Health told AFP the claims are false. "Singapore has not passed any laws on vaccinations after Mr Gates' recent visit to Singapore," the ministry said in an emailed statement on June 3. The billionaire was in Singapore on May 5 to announce his philanthropic Gates Foundation would be opening an office in the country (archived link). The Straits Times and Forbes also reported the announcement (archived here and here). A number of the false posts referenced Sections 47, 65, and 67 of Singapore's Infectious Disease Law (archived link). The provisions state that the director-general of health may direct "any person or class of persons not protected or vaccinated against the disease to undergo vaccination" when "an outbreak of an infectious disease... is imminent" and "it is necessary or expedient to do so for the securing public safety". "The authorities must show these two requirements are satisfied before they can impose any vaccine mandate," Eugene Tan, an associate professor of law at Singapore Management University, told AFP on May 29 (archived link). Penalties for failing to be vaccinated under the amendments would include a fine of up to 10,000 Singapore dollars (around US$7,760) and a prison term of up to six month for the first offence, while a second offence would see the punishment doubled. Tan said the penalties, however, would only apply when a vaccine mandate is in place, though the "likelihood of such a scenario is very low". He added that the statutes within the law make a blanket vaccine mandate "highly exceptional because they are severely intrusive and people cannot be compelled to be vaccinated". More of AFP's reporting on health misinformation is available here.
