GCSEs and A-levels cancelled in England by the pandemic will be replaced by grades decided by teachers, exams watchdog Ofqual says.
Schools can determine grades this summer by using a combination of mock exams, coursework and essays. It is important the pandemic does not prevent students going on to the next stage of their careers, schools minister Nick Gibb says. It comes after education secretary Gavin Williamson says a "full return" of schools and colleges in England on 8 March is justified by data. He is due to give more details on the plans for grades in the Commons later A review by US regulators of the single-shot Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine has found it is safe and effective. Coronavirus cases and deaths are continuing to fall globally, a new report from the World Health Organization says.

The US is poised to pass its third major spending package of the pandemic - a $1.9tn (£1.4tn) plan President Joe Biden has championed as a way to help struggling Americans.
The organisers of the Tokyo Olympics have confirmed that the Games' torch relay will begin next month as planned, but are asking spectators to restrain themselves and will keep a close eye on overcrowding.

Yes, authoritarians hate science, which is why say there is the denialism of human biology happening. As to my point - germans using mysticism to judge that populations must be reduced tends to be a bad idea. Be it the new age mysticism with Gaia and immune system or the new age mysticism with the Arian race's destiny to expand. Any way, you got the song wrong. Please don't make us stop a well wishing (and Nazis believed themselves to be moral, didn't they?) ethic German state from trying to genocide us again.

FOCUS comments:
"Do you still remember Ugur Sahin, the founder of Biontech, the man who brought us the miracle cure against Corona. Just recently celebrated as the hero who saves humanity from virus death and Germany from eternal lockdown. And now? Now he's the ugly face of capitalism. The EU Commission under Ms. von der Leyen has started a small dirt campaign. As with any successful smear campaign, you can't say with certainty who is behind it, of course. Let's put it this way: Papers appeared out of the blue on ARD [Germany's first TV state propaganda channel, Skybird], according to which Biotech originally demanded 54 euros per vaccine dose. What usury! No wonder that the EU Commission did not want to sign the contract immediately. Conventional vaccinations are significantly more expensive. These are the prices for a vaccination against conventional diseases: Chickenpox: € 56 Hepatitis: 60 € Rabies: € 75 Shingles: € 104 But of course, 54 euros for a vaccination against Corona is of course totally overpriced. That's why people in the EU fooled around until they reached 13 euros. It just took 4 months, so the Americans and Israelis are now ahead. In Baden-Württemberg 80-year-olds are still waiting for their appointment. In New Jersey, being a smoker is enough to get vaccinated. But hey, we saved money for that. Avarice is cool. [A german commercial's slogan, Skybird]. Or maybe not.

I got my invitation letter to book an appointment at the nearest China virus vaccination centre, when I checked where it was I thought "you can bollocks to that you plonkers".
They want me to travel roughly 18 miles and go to the same area my neighbour got infected with this China virus and died from it I might add, so I can get inoculated. Bleeding brilliant I thought, no mention of the word "sorry" for killing my bleeding neighbour or anything, typical NHS admins who don't give a bleeding toss if you kick the bucket or not. Luckily it said that If you cannot travel to any of these vaccination centres, you can wait until a centre nearer you opens. More centres are opening all the time - check back regularly, to get in touch. Yep, I think I'll wait until there's one in my local area, or people start talking like mindless morons....... oh wait.

And a red carpet, thats the minimum they owe to you.
Are you wanting the jab in principle, or not? If you do not want it anyway, okay, I rest my case. But if you want it, get off your lazy lower back, swing it into a taxi, bus, or your own car, and get there. Its not as if they owe to you, you know. And you simply do not know whether time is on your side - or not. We have one vaccination centre per district over here. Not more. Hopefully one day you can get the shot in every house doctor's office, but we are far away from that. ------- I get a jab next week. Tetanus.

I, my wife, and my neighbor/boat captain are all getting out first Moderna shots on 3/4. It's technically the only hot date I've been on during the year-long Covid lockdown. After the second shot, I'll even resume sailing. Two live-aboard boat owners on our dock had tested positive which has crimped our outings as being 70ish is considered an underlying condition!

The AZ vaccine is suspicious a bit, yes, and has stornger reaciton symptoms for significantly more people, but it gets the key job done: it prevents even in case of infection and illness that people get hospitalised and die. And that is what it is about. Dr. Seheult put it best: you should get that vaccine that you can get the quickest into your arm. Choice is for those who actually have a choice. AZ would not be my first choice, too. But to wait and reject one vaccine because one hopes that later another one will be available - that is simply stupid. If they would give me the choice tomorrow: AZ next week or Biontech in 6 months, i would take the AZ next week. Heck, that is a no brainer, really.

Bangladesh has started vaccinating sex workers in the country’s largest brothel due to their vulnerability to the virus. Syria will begin vaccinating healthcare workers next week after receiving its first batch of vaccines, the country’s health minister has confirmed.

More material sometimes indeed work much better for sure. The discussion about masks and the hot debate about their merit, is one if the biggest nerve-killers of the whole corona thing for me.
A fisherman using a net with smaller loops catches more small fishes than a fisherman with a net with bigger loops. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7007e1.htm Several to US polticians of the govenrm,ent have eben seen indeed wearing TWO masks over another. Including the president himself. I experiment with something like that, too, to improve the fitting of the FFP mask and to better seal it at the rims. I also shaved off my beard.
