With curevac, a second German vaccine plans to enter the market by the end of 2nd quarter or early 3rd quarter. They will file for an emergency permssion in the coming weeks. Curevac, made in Tübingen, is another mRNA vaccine. Pre-clincial studies showed that it already protects against one of the latest worrysome mutations, B.135. The data collecting from running trials is still underway. Lets hope they can start the roll-out in 3rd quarter, and early then.

Lol, you know I've read a couple of articles already that said the risk of blood clots are pretty much the same with all COVID vaccines. I think maybe we are witnessing politics, money making power plays and media sensationalism. Before COVID vaccines we would have accused anyone who pointed these quite minimal risks out as just a bunch of antivaxxer cry babies. oh, and by the way. As of week 2021-14, 645 412 deaths have been reported in the EU 564,387 deaths in the U.S.

Test and Trace figures show positive tests in England are down by 34% in a week.
Surge testing for the South African Covid variant is taking place in six London boroughs in a bid to halt its spread. Residents in the SE16 postcode in Southwark, N3 in Barnet, HA2 in Harrow and UB3 in Hillingdon are being urged to get tested, as well as all residents of Lambeth and Wandsworth. Surge testing is also being carried out in parts of Smethwick in the West Midlands. Around 4.7 million people were waiting for routine operations and procedures in England in February - the highest since 2007, NHS England figures show Nearly 388,000 were waiting more than a year for non-urgent surgery compared with just 1,600 before the pandemic. Prime Minister Boris Johnson has promised to give the NHS "all the funding that it needs" to tackle the backlog. Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said she was "glad" she had the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine and it was "emotional" More than 200,000 new daily cases have been confirmed in India as the virus spreads.

Germany’s rising infection number – 29,426 in the past 24 hours – has prompted intensive care doctors to appeal for urgent action. Chancellor Angela Merkel is pushing for a nationwide emergency brake including a night-time curfew and school closures where incidence rates are high – but legal experts have raised concerns, particularly about the curfew. Leading emergency medicine specialist Christian Karagiannidis says there’s no time to wait.
The Swiss will be able to return to cafes and restaurants outdoors from Monday, and cinemas and theatres will start allowing audiences of 50 people. Football stadiums, concerts and other outdoor events will be allowed to admit 100 people if they wear masks. France will become the third country in Western Europe, probably this evening, to surpass 100,000 Covid deaths after the UK and Italy. There is no let-up in the country's third wave with almost 6,000 people in intensive care - the highest number since mid-April last year. President Emmanuel Macron will chair a cabinet meeting this evening on a plan to reopen outdoor catering and eventually culture venues. Italy reported another 469 deaths yesterday evening, bringing the death toll to 115,557. But hospital numbers are falling – with 3,490 in intensive care. Italian health officials have secured another seven million Pfizer-BioNTech doses by the end of June – it’s becoming the most important vaccine for much of Europe. The Italian consignment is among 50 million extra doses that the European Union has secured from Pfizer for the second quarter of 2021. The agreement fills a gap created by delays because of the suspended Johnson & Johnson vaccine and the limits imposed on the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine. Meanwhile, Serbia has started production of the Russian Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine. Russia's sovereign wealth fund says it may be exported to other countries in the region.

A further 30 people have died after contracting coronavirus in the UK, according to government daily statistics.
It brings the total number of deaths within 28 days of a positive Covid-19 test to 127,191. There were also 2,672 new infections. A total of 40,958,303 coronavirus vaccinations have been given in the UK, according to government figures. That's 32,444,439 first doses and 8,513,864 second doses. In England and Scotland, people aged 45 and over are now being invited to book their jabs. In Northern Ireland, those aged 40-45 are eligible to get a Covid vaccine, while in some areas in Wales 40-49 year-olds are being invited.

In most countries surrounding Denmark they suffer from out-of-control epidemic Germany and Sweden
In meantime the people on the streets here in Denmark are demanding an end of our restrictions. This because the R0 has been below 0.4 each day and number of tested has been around 200.000 each day. What I understand is that this B117 British variant has an R0 around 1.1-1.2 Markus

My prediction in 10 years we will be seeing commercials saying something like this:
"If you took the covid vaccine in 2021 you may be entitled to compensation. Call the law offices of Doowee, Cheatem and Howe and speak to one of our representatives right away."

About 130,000 people in the UK are estimated to have had coronavirus in the week to 10 April, the Office for National Statistics says.
That is down sharply from 185,000 people the previous week, and represents one-in-500 people having Covid-19 But the World Health Organization warns Covid cases around the world are continuing to increase at a "worrying rate" Chancellor Angela Merkel says the third wave has Germany "firmly in its grip" and the situation there is "very serious" New rules on travel and meeting people outdoors have come into force in Scotland today as restrictions are eased. People can now travel out of their local area for non-essential reasons and six people from up to six households can meet outdoors. Successful vaccine programmes will stop another washout for summer holidaymakers, the boss of Europe's largest tour company TUI says. China's economy grew a record 18.3% in the first quarter of 2021 compared with a year earlier - the biggest jump since records began. A new Covid-19 variant in the UK, first identified in India, features two mutations that could be a cause for concern, an expert says.

Denmark’s political parties have finalised plans to open up further next Wednesday – with indoor dining in cafes, restaurants and bars, as long as people book and provide a corona pass. Museums and art galleries will also be open for people with the “coronapas”. The downloadable pass shows if you have had a negative test in the past three days, have recently had Covid or have been vaccinated.
Two German states have decided to impose more stringent measures from Monday - Baden-Württemberg in the south-west and Mecklenburg-West Pomerania in the far north. In the north most shops and schools will shut – although hairdressers will stay open. The German government is changing the law so it can pull the so-called "emergency brake" across the country from Berlin, but that won’t happen until later next week. Portugal will start lifting lockdown on Monday, but 11 local authorities out of more than 300 will have to wait because of a high incidence rate. Restaurants, shopping centres, high schools and universities will all reopen but Prime Minister António Costa has warned the transmission rate is higher now than it was at the start of March. France has confirmed it will reopen primary schools on 26 April and secondary schools a week later. Dutch Health Minister Hugo de Jonge has rejected criticism of the spiralling cost of holding 445 test events over the next few weeks which have attracted 232,000 people. He insists the events are a “fantastic investment”, but critics point to the cost and the lack of public tender for the groups involved. One event in eight days’ time will attract 10,000 people. German Chancellor Angela Merkel is expected to have the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccination today. Aged 66, she is eligible for the AZ jab in Germany. Meanwhile, the president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, had her vaccination in Brussels yesterday.

The planned emergency brake in germany most likely will face a crushing barrage of complaints and challenges by constitution advocates before the Constitutional High Court. Even the scientific research service if the Bundestag warns that it has very severe doubts that some of the measures will survice a recheck by Karlsruhe.
The chief of Biontech and head behind the developement of the vaccine says a third vaccination most likely will be necessary and from then on once per year. Second jab for people having gotten a first shot by AstraZenca, mostly will get a second shot with another vaccine. AZ definitely has ended up on a dead track over here, the company has no more bright future in Germany, and other countries.

A German proverb says: "Verträge sind dazu da, daß man sich verträgt" ("contracts are for people to get along with each other correctly/nicely/peacefully"). At court, its also the letter of the law or the fineprint in the treaty that decides the case, not the mere emotional feeling of one side about what is fair or just. I feel more for the Anglosaxon way of seeing things. There is also anothe rGerman proverb: "Vertrauen ist gut. Kontrolle ist besser." (Trust is kind/good. Control is better.)
