Covid: Pfizer and AstraZeneca approved as booster vaccines – BBC News
The UK medicines regulator has approved the use of Pfizer and AstraZeneca as Covid booster vaccines, paving the way for a rollout ahead of the winter. But the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI), the UK vaccine advisory body, has not decided if they are needed, and who should be eligible. The JCVI has said a third dose should be offered to people with severely weakened immune systems. Up to half a million people over the age of 12 in the UK are in this group. A separate booster programme against Covid-19 would aim to extend protection for millions more at high risk from the virus, although there is disagreement over whether this is really necessary.

Scores of Westerners, including Americans, fly out of Kabul – The Washington Post
Some 200 foreigners, including Americans, flew out of Afghanistan on an international commercial flight from Kabul airport on Thursday, the first such large-scale departure since U.S and foreign forces concluded their frantic withdrawal at the end of last month. The Qatar Airways flight to Doha marked a significant breakthrough in the bumpy coordination between the U.S. and Afghanistan’s new Taliban rulers. A dayslong stand-off over charter planes at another airport had left dozens of passengers stranded and cast doubt on Taliban assurances to allow foreigners and Afghans with proper travel documents to leave the country. A senior U.S. official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to brief the media, provided the number of Westerners on board and said that two very senior Taliban officials had helped facilitate the departure. Americans, green card holders and other nationalities including Germans, Hungarians and Canadians were on the flight, the official said.

The lazy bear|خرس تنبل
“88th story”
First published: April.25.2019
When my son was a few years old, I bought him a book called “Lazy Bear.” The simple story made me realize how modestly this book was describing our life.
What a great idea it was that they created animal characters to tell the stories to open our minds. This is how it went:

Once there was a very kind squirrel who loved to help others a lot. One day, while the squirrel was running fast, his friends “Monkey” and “Rabbit” asked: “Where are you running to? It’s been a few days that you have been doing this. Is everything alright?”

The squirrel responded while short of breath: “There is a little bear under the big oak tree that can’t move and is very hungry. I am running to get some fruits for him before he dies of hunger.”

The monkey and rabbit felt…

Anti-mask parents mock Tennessee student describing loss of grandmother | TheHill
“This time last year, my grandmother, who was a former teacher at the Rutherford County school system died of Covid because someone wasn’t wearing a mask,” Knox said, according to the Nashville, Tenn., TV station. As he tried to continue his speech, adults in attendance began to laugh at and heckle him.
“Hey guys, we’re here to act professional,” the school board chairman reportedly said to calm down the crowd.
Knox told WSMV that he was shocked at the behavior of the adults at the meeting who heckled him.
“If they laugh at me about a personal story about my grandmother, that’s just disrespectful, I feel. So, I was like shaken a little bit,” Knox said.
Knox also said the incident will not deter him from speaking up in favor of a mask mandate.
“As long as I can get my message across, I don’t really think it matters what the crowd thinks of me,” Knox said. “Overall, they’re not the ones making the decisions for the school.”
Board member Claire Maxwell expressed regret over the incident, telling WSMV that the board was “ashamed about what happened” and wants to ensure “nothing like that ever happens again.”

Conformismo
Vivaldi Translation: “Conformism opens a door to abandonment”. Anyone who donates his rights to another, he does not account for the manifest of his losses.

” O conformismo abre uma porta para o abandono “. Toda pessoa que doa os seus direitos em prol de outra, ela não contabiliza o manifesto de seus prejuízos.
