1. HR (public TV) put up a short piece to discuss the problem of German school kids who are getting no exercise and thus.....gaining weight. The calculated deal? They figure one out of three kids between 10 and 14....has above average weight now. Resolving this? No one says much.
2. Resolving all the ban rules by Easter? NO. Politicians are hinting in a strong way that Easter will be a very marginal and limited period.
3. Border controls in place? Yep. Against both Czech, and the Tyrol region of Italy. Germans are fearful of the virus spilling over. If you look at Czech numbers....it's way up over the past two months.
4. Finally, the German word-protectors stepped in and said 'no, you can't call the British mutation....the Brit mutation'. So the official term you are supposed to use? This mutation is B1.1.7.
So instead of talking about the British mutation of the Wuhan virus....you need to go to saying it's the B1.1.7 version of the Covid-19 virus.
The fact that Chancellor Merkel still utters 'British mutation'? Well, it takes a while to force your mind to always say the right words when discussing the Wuhan-virus.
5. Shot vaccination success? On the first shot business....it's at 3.1-percent of the population. Those completing the second shot, at 1.6-percent.
Total infection count since day one? 2.3-million. Total death count, 64,799.
