Justify your answer using the provided evidence and select the correct label.\n\nClaim: The state of California admitted in a court settlement that a million people voted improperly in the US elections in 2019.\n\nQ1: What happens to an inactive voter?\nA1: a State may remove a registrant who \"(i) has failed to\nrespond to a notice\" and \"(ii) has not voted or appeared to vote ...\nduring the period beginning on the date of the notice and ending on\nthe day after the date of the second general election for Federal office\nthat occurs after the date of the notice\" (about four years). 52 U. S. C.\n§20507(d)(l)(B). Not only are States allowed to remove registrants\nwho satisfy these requirements, but federal law makes this removal\nmandatory.\n\nQ2: What is the US Federal law regarding inactive voters?\nA2: The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) is a federal law requiring the removal of inactive registrations from the voter rolls after two general federal elections (encompassing from 2 to 4 years).\n\nQ3: What are the main reasons that voters become inactive?\nA3: Inactive voter registrations belong, for the most part, to voters who have moved to another county or state or have passed away.\n\nQ4: What was the situation regarding registered voters in the County of Los Angeles in January 2019?\nA4: Los Angeles County had the highest number of inactive registrations of any single county in the US, with more voter registrations on its voter rolls than it had citizens old enough to register. This means that more than one out of every five LA County registrations likely belongs to a voter who has moved or is deceased.\n\nQ5: What was the federal lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch against California in the 2019 US elections about?\nA5: In its lawsuit, Judicial Watch alleged:\n\nLos Angeles County has more voter registrations on its voter rolls than it has citizens who are old enough to register. Specifically, according to data provided to and published by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, Los Angeles County has a registration rate of 112 percent of its adult citizen population.\n\nThe entire State of California has a registration rate of about 101 percent of its age-eligible citizenry.\n\nEleven of California’s 58 counties have registration rates exceeding 100 percent of the age-eligible citizenry.\n\nQ6: What did the federal lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch against California in the 2019 US elections confirm?\nA6: The lawsuit confirmed that Los Angeles County has on its rolls more than 1.5 million potentially ineligible voters. This means that more than one out of every five LA County registrations likely belongs to a voter who has moved or is deceased. Judicial Watch notes that “Los Angeles County has the highest number of inactive registrations of any single county in the country.”\n\nThe Judicial Watch lawsuit also uncovered that neither the State of California nor Los Angeles County had been removing inactive voters from the voter registration rolls for the past 20 years. The Supreme Court affirmed last year in Husted v. A. Philip Randolph Inst., 138 S. Ct. 1833 (2018) that the NVRA “makes this removal mandatory.”\n\nQ7: Do inactive voter registrations count as a vote?\nA7: No, because These voters do not automatically receive a mail ballot in each election. They are still eligible to vote by visiting a Voter Service and Polling Center during election time, or they can contact the Elections Division to find out more information about how to reactivate their record.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "justification: The Q&As show that although California had a lot of inactive voters, there is no evidence to show that they voted improperly in the US elections, so the claim is refuted. \n\nverdict: 'Refuted'", "role": "assistant" } ]

Wash your hands before putting on your face covering, put it over your nose and mouth and secure it under your chin, and try to fit it snugly against the sides of your face. Make sure you can still breathe easily.\n\nHand washing: The most well-established way to prevent respiratory infections such as influenza and coronavirus is frequent and thorough hand washing with soap and water. Scrub your hands thoroughly with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.\n\nHand sanitizer: Handwashing with soap and water is the best way to reduce germs, but if they are not available, alcohol-based hand sanitizers that contain at least 60% alcohol can help to reduce the spread of infection. Note: avoid any products containing triclosan, a known hormone-disrupting chemical.\n\nCovering your mouth and nose: Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing; if your hands are not free or you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your sleeve, not your bare hands.\n\nNot touching your face: Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands, which can help provide the virus with a route of entry into the body. Since the average individual touches their face an average of 15 times per hour, remain vigilant!\n\nKeeping surfaces clean: Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces, especially when someone is ill. Surfaces to consider include doorknobs, phones, computer keyboards, remotes, and other surfaces that are frequently touched in rooms such as the bathroom and kitchen.\nLifestyle\n\nStress reduction: Chronic stress can negatively alter immune system responses, making you more likely to get sick. Identify your personal stress reduction strategies and practice them regularly.\n\nSleep: Sleep has a big influence on immune function, so it is es\n\nQ2: How does burning candles eliminate corona\nA2: COVID-19 can be transmitted by people with the virus coughing or sneezing, releasing tiny contaminated droplets into the air, putting anyone within range in danger of inhaling them. These droplets can travel more than a metre from the infected person, allowing them to settle on any surfaces ready to be transferred to anyone that touches the surface.\n\nThe virus can live on some surfaces for several days. Data from the 2003 SARS outbreak, which was a similar illness to the latest coronavirus, showed the virus could contaminate plastered walls for up to a day and a half, plastic and stainless steel for 72 hours, and glass for 96 hours. So it’s likely the mobile phone, tablet or computer screen you are reading this on could harbour COVID-19 for up to four days, and be transferred to anyone touching the screen.\n\nAdopting good hygiene is one of the most effective weapons to slow or prevent the virus spreading. Here are six things you can do to protect yourself and others.\n\n\n1. Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth\n\nOur hands touch door handles, keyboards, taps and numerous other surfaces, so the virus could easily be picked up this way. Rubbing tired eyes or touching your nose or mouth could transfer the virus from your hands into your body.\n\n2. Wash your hands regularly\n\nClean your hands thoroughly and often, using plenty of soap and water or an alcohol-based hand rub to kill any virus on your hands. Scrub for at least 20 seconds, making sure you clean fingers, thumbs and palms.\n\n\n\n3. Practise respiratory hygiene\n\n\nIf you cough or sneeze, use a tissue and throw it in the trash afterwards. If you don’t have a tissue, cough into the crook of your arm instead of using your hand. If possible, avoid coughing or sneezing near other people.\n\n4. Maintain social distancing\n\nBe aware of people around you and keep your distance from anyone coughing or sneezing. Stay at least 1 metre away to prevent inhaling the small liquid droplets sprayed by coughs and sneezes.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "justification: From the evidence below, Lighting a Diya or candle is not listed as one of the preventative measures for COVID-19.

It also weakens your immune system and could make you much more vulnerable to viruses, including HIV.\n\nTo see how alcohol affects resistance to infection, Gyongyi Szabo of the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester and colleagues exposed monocytes – white blood cells involved in the front-line defence against infection – to chemicals that mimic viruses and bacteria. Half of the cells were also soused in the levels of alcohol that a person might have in their blood after quaffing four or five alcoholic drinks daily for a week.\n\nAlcohol blunted the monocytes’ defences. When the over-the-limit cells were exposed to a virus mimic, they produced only a quarter as much of the virus-fighting signalling molecule called type-1 interferon as teetotal monocytes made.\n\n“Interferon is pivotal, the first response to any viral infection,” says Szabo. “There’s no viral elimination without it.”\n\nQ2: What is the effect of Alcohol on the immune system ?\nA2: Weakening the immune system is one of many negative effects heavy alcohol consumption has on the body. The mechanism is not fully understood and other factors such as age, gender, diet, state of general health may play a part.\n\nSome studies have shown that, in moderation, certain alcoholic beverages such as wine and beer can actually decrease inflammation in the body. But at the same time, other studies suggest that even moderate consumption can do damage.\n\nQ3: How does Alcohol impact the Immune System ?\nA3: Advanced knowledge into the complex multi-layered interactions of alcohol on the immune system has been exposed in a wide range of research papers over the past decade, concluding that excessive alcohol consumption and misuse can have serious long-term deleterious effects on the immune system. Additionally, a mother who exposes her developing fetus to alcohol puts the baby at risk for fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) and an impaired immune system that is more susceptible to disease. An adult who drinks to excess puts themselves at risk of contracting pneumonia, as well as a greater likelihood of acute respiratory stress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis, alcoholic liver disease (ALD), and slower recovery from infection, wound healing and trauma.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "justification: the answer show heavy alcohol consumption does affect the immune system, negatively. \n\nverdict: 'Supported'", "role": "assistant" } ]

However, recent studies suggest they can help.\n\nOne 2013 study looked at how masks could help people with the seasonal flu limit spreading it when they exhale droplets containing the virus. Overall, researchers found masks led to a more than threefold reduction in how much virus people sprayed into the air.\n\nAnother study, analyzing data from thousands of Japanese schoolchildren, found that “vaccination and wearing a mask reduced the likelihood of developing seasonal influenza.”\n\nImportantly, researchers also found that flu rates were lower when masks were paired with proper hand hygiene.\n\nIn other words, regular handwashing remains an essential tool in preventing the spread of viruses.", "role": "user" }, { "content": "justification: There's not enough evidence from the QA pair to either support or refute this claim \n\nverdict: 'Not Enough Evidence'", "role": "assistant" } ]
