Conspiracy theories are spreading mouth-to-mouth as a response to China’s zero-COVID strategy, as an alternative to scientific conclusions regarding the decreased effectiveness of Chinese vaccines.

This is not the first time that the wrong signals – such as elimination of the compulsory wearing of masks outdoors or talk of eliminating the requirement that vaccination certificates be required at restaurants, - have been conveyed to the public.

The Omicron variant found fertile ground to evolve and grow in a country that is insufficiently vaccinated and in people who are immunosuppressed or suffer from severe chronic illnesses.

 'The Administration believes strongly in intellectual property protections, but in service of ending this pandemic, supports the waiver of those protections for COVID-19 vaccines,' US trade rep Katherine Tai said in a statement.

Although three million deaths is a huge number, the cost of the pandemic in terms of human lives is much greater. Its impact on non COVID-19 patients who fell ill or needing emergency care in the middle of a pandemic is dramatic.

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - European Union nations, Britain and EU partners have agreed on a blueprint for a COVID-19 vaccination plan envisaging inoculation of at least 40% of their populations, a step that may set back the World Health Organisation’s own vaccine blueprint

To escape his responsibility for the poor management of the COVID-19 pandemic US President Donald Trump has decided to blame the WHO, a crucial international organisation.

'This virus has pandemic potential,' WHO DirectoTedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said. 'This is not a time for fear. This is a time for taking action to prevent infection and save lives now.”

G20 finance ministers and central bank governors who met in Riyadh instead of attempting to forge a common effort to manage the coronavirus crisis simply issued platitudinous observations. In the final communiqué of the meeting, which China did not attend, officials merely articulated their commitment to bolster international monitoring of how the epidemic is evolving. Naturally that message did not allay the fears of investors. Yesterday was a “black Monday” for stock markets on both sides of the Atlantic and the Greek bourse collapsed without resistance. The World Health Organisation (WHO) expressed heightened concerns about the sudden rise in incidence and warned about a prospective pandemic. The rapid spread of the coronavirus is undoubtedly linked to the constantly increasing mobility of people and the inter-dependence between countries. The dependencies resulting from globalisation were discussed in Riyadh but of course the participants came up with no answers. In our globalised world major problems require global coordination. The powerful of our planet have a duty to step up their efforts to confront the threat and adopt a unified action plan

When Special Counsel Robert Mueller struck a plea bargain with Mike Flynn, leading to yesterday’s historic admission of guilt for lying to the FBI, he already had done the same with a young Greek-American who found himself on Donald Trump’s national security team with very little background in the field.
