PYUTHAN, Nepal, Jan 6 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Ram Bahadur Rayamajhi worked in a furniture shop in India for nearly 15 years but returned to his home village in western Nepal's Pyuthan district several years ago, after suffering from a nerve problem.
With his son unable to find a good job, Rayamajhi had to provide for his household of eight people and took up farming as his main profession.
But the lack of a good water source to irrigate his one hectare (2.47 acres) of land left him dependent on erratic rainfall to grow his mustard crop, the 65-year-old said.
"Sometimes a heavy downpour and hailstones would destroy my field crops, and at other times (they) would fail due to water scarcity," he said.
He also struggled with pests and diseases. As a result of these multiple problems, he ended up farming only half of his land, leaving the rest barren.
That was until two years ago, when the provincial government launched a "smart agriculture" programme in his village of Darbhan.
Rayamajhi now irrigates his land from a 75,000-litre tank constructed under the programme, filled with water pumped from a borehole using a motor driven by hydroelectric power.
"Due to the continuous supply of water, the crop yield has increased," he added, noting his mustard harvest had almost doubled this season.
"The mustard seed also contains a higher amount of oil due to sufficient irrigation," said the farmer who grows cauliflowers, cabbages and potatoes too.
Plastic tunnels also provided by the programme, meanwhile, have helped protect his tomato crop from hail, excess rain and disease.
"The incidence of blight in tomato when planted outside the tunnel was higher than when they are planted inside," he said.
TECHNOLOGY TO ADAPT
The smart agriculture programme funded and managed by the government of Lumbini province is now operating in 116 villages, up from 52 in the first year.
The four-year scheme distributes 5 million Nepalese rupees ($42,700) per year to each village to provide subsidised inputs and services to farmers.
According to Lumbini's ministry of agriculture, up to 20% of the budget is used to develop site-specific technologies and practices to help farmers cope with a warming climate.
Ministry information officer Sanjay Dhakal said climate shifts had brought multiple problems to local fields, from more insect pests to water scarcity and declining crop yields.
Mukesh Ramjali, a climate liaison officer with the smart farming programme and an agricultural extension officer in Palpa district, said the area had seen higher temperatures and shifting rainfall patterns, with excessively wet or dry periods.
This has increased the incidence of plant diseases, he added, such as false smut in rice and infestations of capsicum. Citrus and millet yields have also fallen, he said.
In response, the programme is providing drought-tolerant crop varieties such as Raja-14 rice which requires less water to grow and livestock breeds like the Boer goat, a hybrid that is bred to adapt to local conditions.
An information centre equipped with internet access is set up in each village, where farmers can get weather forecasts to guide their work.
They also receive training on the effects of climate change and how they can use technology to adapt, such as soil mulching and rainwater harvesting.
Dhakal said the main aim was to make the villages "climate smart" - which means using eco-friendly methods to thrive in a harsher climate - through increased access to irrigation, markets and use of technology.
The provincial government is now funding the programme but plans to hand it over to local municipalities in two years´ time, he noted.
To prepare for that, the provincial budget is reduced by a quarter each year, with the spending covered instead by municipalities or farmers' groups, he added.
NO NEED TO LEAVE
Dal Bahadur Rayamajhi, another farmer from Darbhan village who oversees the programme´s implementation there, used to go to India seasonally to work as security guard.
But after the smart agriculture scheme was introduced, he took up farming as his main occupation.
"Earlier, although I had sufficient land, I had to buy almost everything from outside," he said.
"But now I earn more than 200,000 rupees in a year selling field produce," said Rayamajhi, who is related to Ram Bahadur. "I don´t have to go to India anymore."
He has received netting that protects his crops from pests and poly-tunnels to keep off dew, hailstones and heavy rain.
Nearly 60 households in the village have benefited from similar equipment and can use water from two tanks to irrigate.
"About 13 hectares of land that was completely barren in this village is cultivated now after this programme was introduced here," said Rayamajhi.
Officer Ramjali said no study had been carried out on whether the smart agriculture programme was reducing migration pressures but it had enabled farmers - some of whom had sought work across the border - to make more money from their land.
"At least 10-15 households, which also include returned migrants, in each village have shifted from subsistence farming to commercial farming," he added.

Olivia Attwood has called out influencers claiming they need to travel abroad to work during the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
The reality star, who found fame on Love Island in 2017, criticised other influencers who have been sending heading overseas while strict restrictions have been enforced by the government in order to control the spread of coronavirus.
England is currently in its third national lockdown and currently international travel is prohibited, unless given a legally permitted reason to do so, such as work.
Influencers travelling overseas for ‘work purposes’ have frustrated fans, with Olivia addressing a meme doing the rounds on social media that jokes over those claiming they have ‘struggled’ during the pandemic, but have been posting pictures of their exotic getaways.
Taking to her Instagram story, Olivia vented her frustration as she hit out at influencers not being transparent about their trips.
‘There’s a difference between being able to earn money from wherever you are and being on holiday for work. Whenever I go on holiday, I will post content which I can monetise, but I’m still on holiday,’ Olivia pointed out.
She continued: ‘I don’t go, “Oh me and [my boyfriend] Brad have had the most amazing week in Portugal, but don’t worry, I was flat out working,” you just sound so stupid.’
‘On top of that you have got the ones going, “Oh we are all in this together, this is our struggle,” no, it’s not. You are on holiday and to be fair I don’t f**king blame you,’ Olivia said.
Not ruling out a trip herself, she admitted: ‘If this goes on for another six months, I’m not going to say that I wouldn’t potentially be tempted to take a trip because I probably f**king would.’
However, Olivia did say that influencers claiming to be working are ‘giving a whole load of people a bad reputation’, especially when some have ‘held their hands up’ and admitted to being on holiday.
She hit back at those she claims have moaned about ‘how hard’ being an influencer is and fired back: ‘People are losing their family members daily, people can’t pay their rent, people’s lifelong businesses they have worked their f**king b******s off for are crumbling around them and you are on your stories on the beach telling us we don’t know how hard it is.’
‘If I decide to bail out of this s**t-show in a few months. don’t all hate on me. I’m not going to say I’m never going away again, but I won’t be telling you I’m going for work, I’m just going to be honest,’ Olivia insisted.
Her rant comes after a string of celebrities have been seen heading abroad, with many sharing snaps on social media from their trips to Dubai.
The United Arab of Emirates has now been removed from the UK’s travel corridor list and as of Tuesday, those returning from the UAE, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi, will have to quarantine on their return.
Lockdown has been enforced once more as the government takes tougher messages to try and control a new strain of coronavirus spreading across Englad at an ‘alarming’ rate.
The total number of confirmed cases of Covid-19 in the UK have now reached over 3.1million, with reports claiming current restrictions could be made tougher if infections continue to rise.

Manchester United top the Premier League table after New Year’s Day for the first time since they last won the title in 2013, with Paul Pogba’s second-half strike securing Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side victory at Burnley on Tuesday night.

Manchester United top the Premier League table after New Year’s Day for the first time since they last won the title in 2013, with Paul Pogba’s second-half strike securing Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side victory at Burnley on Tuesday night.
Referee Kevin Friend ruled out a headed goal from United captain Harry Maguire in a VAR-dominated first half and the visitors were beginning to look frustrated before Pogba’s volleyed effort deflected in off Matt Lowton’s leg with 19 minutes remaining at Turf Moor.
James Tarkowski fluffed a golden chance to equalise for the Clarets before Anthony Martial had a shot denied by Nick Pope at the death and the Red Devils held onto their advantage to come away with all three points.
Solskjaer’s men are riding a outstanding run of form, having won nine of their last 11 matches, and the hard-fought win means they are unbeaten in their last 15 games away from home.
The result also ensures the Red Devils climb to the summit ahead of their crunch match with second-placed Liverpool – who trail their bitter rivals by three points – at Anfield this weekend.
It’s the first time United have claimed top spot in January since Sir Alex Ferguson stepped down as manager.
Speaking to Sky Sports shortly after the final whistle, United matchwinner Pogba said: ‘We know that the game today was very hard, very difficult and obviously we wanted to win.
‘We know it’s not easy to play here and we got the three points and we are happy for that.
‘But it’s still a long way and now we’re going to have to focus again until the end of the season.’
The France midfielder felt United were robbed of a goal before the break after Maguire was adjudged to have shoved Erik Pieters in the back.
‘It’s not what I feel, it was a goal. For sure,’ Pogba said.
‘He just jumped before, he headed it and it was a beautiful goal. Then the referee decided that which was kind of strange.
‘But we got the result we wanted so we have to be happy.’

More than 200 people have marched in protest after a young man died hours after being released from police custody.

More than 200 people have marched in protest after a young man died hours after being released from police custody.
The aunt of Mohamud Mohammed Hassan, 24, claimed he returned home with ‘lots of wounds on his body and lots of bruises’ which weren’t there before he was arrested.
Protesters gathered outside Cardiff Bay police station demanding ‘justice’, as well as the release of CCTV from his time in custody.
Mr Hassan was arrested on Friday evening after reports of a disturbance at his home but released the following morning without charge.
He was found dead at the same property later on Saturday evening, with his family claiming he had been assaulted while in custody.
Police described his death as ‘sudden and unexplained’ and say there were no indications of misconduct issues or excessive force used by their officers.
On Tuesday afternoon, the marching crowd of protesters chanted ‘no justice, no peace’ as they made their way to the police station, and held up signs that read ‘Black Lives Matter’ and ‘stop police brutality’.
One protester, Bianca Ali, 29, said: ‘We want justice, we want transparency, we want answers, we want the truth.’
She added: ‘It was a young boy, he had a baby on the way, he was married, he was settled down, and he was arrested for a breach of the peace which resulted in his death.’
Welsh First Minister Mark Drakeford described reports of Mr Hassan’s death as ‘deeply concerning’ today.
Plaid Cymru leader Adam Price asked Mr Drakeford whether he would commit to helping Mr Hassan’s family find answers during Questions to the First Minister at the Senedd.
He said: ‘Witnesses were reportedly shocked by Mr Hassan’s condition following his release, saying that his tracksuit was covered in blood and he had severe injuries and bruising.
‘There can be no doubt that this is a deeply harrowing case and every effort should be made to seek the truth of what happened – why was Mohamud Hassan arrested, what happened during his arrest, did he have legal representation, was there any aftercare, why did this young man die?
‘Whilst we should not prejudge the outcome of any inquiry, will you commit First Minister to doing everything within your power to help the family find those answers and do you support their call for an independent investigation of this case?’
Mr Drakeford said he had found reports of Mr Hassan’s death ‘deeply concerning’ and said the circumstances ‘must be properly investigated’.
He said: ‘I understand that the police have already referred, as they would have to, this matter to the independent police investigation service.
‘The first step in any inquiry will have to be to allow them to carry out their work. I absolutely expect that to be done rigorously, and with full and visible independence.
‘I’m glad that the family have secured legal assistance to them in order to pursue their very understandable concerns.
‘And if there are things the Welsh Government can do – then I will make sure that we attend properly to those without prejudging in any way the outcome of the independent investigations that now need to follow.’
Mr Hassan’s post-mortem was due to take place today.
His aunt, Zainab Hassan, told BBC Wales she saw Mr Hassan following his release on Saturday with ‘lots of wounds on his body and lots of bruises’.
‘He didn’t have these wounds when he was arrested and when he came out of Cardiff Bay police station – he had them,’ she said.
“Nothing we do is going to bring him back but we will not rest for a second until we have justice.’
South Wales Police have urged against speculation, saying their early findings ‘indicate no misconduct issues and no excessive force’, but referred Mr Hassan’s death to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).
The IOPC’s director for Wales, Catrin Evans, said an independent investigation into police contact with Mr Hassan will look at the level of force used by officers, including reviewing CCTV and police body-worn cameras, but said early indications showed no physical trauma to explain his death.
Ms Evans said: ‘We are aware of concerns being expressed and questions being asked about use of force by police officers. We will look carefully at the level of force used during the interaction and I would urge people show patience while our inquiries, which will take some time, are made.
‘Our investigation will focus on the interaction police had with Mr Hassan during his arrest, the journey in a police van to custody, and the period of time he spent at Cardiff Bay police station including whether relevant assessments were made prior to his release.’

The second instalment of ITV drama The Pembrokeshire Murders ended on a cliffhanger tonight.
The three-part series, starring Beauty and the Beast actor Luke Evans, follows the true story of serial killer John Cooper.
John was initially put in prison after he was convicted of a string of burglaries and robberies.
However, before Dyfed-Powys Police could link his crimes to two double murders and a number of sexual assaults between 1985 and 1996, he was released from prison on parole.
During tonight’s episode, John, who is portrayed by Keith Allen, is released from prison where he goes home to his wife Pat (Caroline Berry).
It’s clear to see that Pat is distressed by the return of her husband as she locked herself away in the bathroom as soon as he got home.
In an unexpected twist, the episode ended with John calling 999.
As the call handler asked him ‘What is your emergency?’ John doesn’t say a word, instead, he just breathed heavily down the phone.
Viewers watching were hooked as the episode drew to a close, with many questioning if he killed his wife.
One tweeted: ‘Did he kill his wife? shocking.’
‘They’ve got the b*****d but has he killed his Mrs or she killed her self?? #PembrokeshireMurders,’ questioned another viewer.
One added: ‘What a good cliff hanger on night two.’
‘Did he just kill his wife?’ another commented.
Many other viewers speculated how the series would come to a close in its third and final episode, as they described the drama as both ‘chilling’ and ‘unsettling’.
‘Watched second episode of #pembrokeshiremurders so chilling,’ tweeted one viewer, as another was left shocked by the episodes unnerving ending: ‘@TheRealLukevans NOOOOOOO #cliffhangeronepisode2 #lovethisseries #pembrokeshiremurders.’
Another tweeted: ‘This #PembrokeshireMurders thing is extremely unsettling, isn’t it?’
John was convicted again after police linked his appearance on Bullseye to an artist impression of the suspect.
They were then able to identify John’s shotgun as the murder weapon in 2009, and in 2011 he was charged with the double murders and sexual assaults.
On May 26 2011, John was convicted for the 1985 double murder of siblings Richard and Helen Thomas and the 1989 double murder of Peter and Gwenda Dixon.
He was also charged with the rape of a 16-year-old girl and the sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl, who were both held at gunpoint.
In September 2011, he launched an appeal against his convictions, but it was rejected in November 2012.
The Pembrokeshire Murders returns tomorrow night at 9pm on ITV.

By Mike Dolan
LONDON, Jan 6 (Reuters) - It's hard playing a worldwide reflation trade when consumer prices have yet to stop falling.
Later this week the euro zone is set to record the joint longest period of headline monthly deflation since the single currency was introduced - joining Japan and Switzerland in a pandemic-driven bout of falling prices that will pressure the European Central Bank to keep its foot to the floor on monetary policy even as markets bet on recovery.
If consensus forecasts prove correct, the pace of euro zone deflation should have slowed a notch to 0.2% last month - even as aggregate prices remained negative for the fifth month in a row and match a 5-month slough in 2009. Core inflation rates, excluding food and energy prices, will likely cling to positive territory, even though the meagre 0.4% rate expected remains the lowest on record.
Japan and Switzerland have headline and core inflation rates running even more negative than the euro zone.
And the new year hardly bodes well for a pickup in prices, with COVID-19 raging, more severe economic lockdowns and potentially vaccine-resistant variants emerging.
Oil prices have more than doubled from the depths of the pandemic shock 9 months ago - even if crude remains down more than 20% on this time last year. And the rebound in world food prices puts them about 3% above 12 months ago and near 6-year highs.
But this is hardly the stuff of runaway inflation that would have us investing in wheelbarrows to carry the cash.
The ECB's survey of professional forecasters in the final quarter of last year assigned more than a 70% probability that inflation remains at or below the ECB's near 2% target over the next 5 years - even though it also ascribed only a 3% chance of deflation persisting over that timeline.
German 10-year inflation expectations, implied by inflation protected government bonds - so-called breakevens - are less than 1%.
But many in financial markets remain convinced that rising global inflation will yet be a legacy of this crisis - even if it largely relies on the United States for evidence and is the flipside of overwhelmingly bearish views on the U.S. dollar.
U.S. 10-year inflation breakevens rose above 2% on Monday for the first time in two years as Fed money printing outpaces other central banks and the prospects of a mega fiscal splurge was rekindled by growing chances the Democrats can take both houses of Congress after this week's Georgia Senate runoffs.
'UNDER-APPRECIATED'
Giant asset manager BlackRock reckons the road ahead will see central banks determined to cap nominal government borrowing rates as growth and inflation eventually rebound. Real, or inflation-adjusted, rates will therefore sink even further and provide a bigger boost to risky assets than during prior inflationary periods.
"Medium-term inflation risks look under-appreciated," it told clients.
Morgan Stanley's global economist Chetan Ahya said the bank's optimistic take on the rebound meant inflation would move significantly higher too and he was still convinced the Fed would hit its 2% target by year-end and allow it to overshoot right through 2022.
Citi's Ebrahim Rahbari is also comfortable that the market bias for reflation from late last year will persist despite periodic nerves surrounding the virus and related restrictions.
"We expect cross-asset reflation trades will continue to work this year, as positioning remains modest, while real rates remain low, money on the sidelines ample and macro stimulus forceful," he wrote.
For many, this "inflation scare" is merely a function of market positioning and hinged on an assumption central banks will tolerate more inflation than in the past. But that still assumes it will re-emerge and remains wishful thinking.
Recent surges in everything from equities, breakevens, gold and even bitcoin have been put down to an inevitability last year's central bank money expansion feeds long-dormant consumer price rises. But it's hard to see that happening while cash demand remains so high amid another wave of lockdowns.
There's even less certainty that an inflation uptick would be sustainable without unlikely matching wage rises and a big disturbance to years of stable household inflation expectations.
However, the largely U.S.-centric inflation view is matched by the hugely negative U.S. dollar consensus.
As years of deflation in Japan and Switzerland indicate, price deflation and currency appreciation tend to go hand in hand - as cash hoarding is encouraged by the prospect of its real value increasing over time.
Just how negative interest rates need to go to offset that is a policy conundrum - but perceived limits to negative rates due to banking stability worries mean persistent deflation will just lift the likes of the euro, yen and franc and potentially suffocate two of the biggest economic areas in the world.
Could U.S. inflation be exported via a weaker dollar that lifts dollar-denominated global food and commodity prices? Absent wage rises, pricier food and energy would just tax already strapped households and be another burn after this year's shock.
Whatever the answer, the inflation scare requires considerable faith and still seems unlikely to emerge this year.

NATIONAL Insurance contributions ensure individuals qualify for certain benefits - but how can you check your NI record?
National Insurance is a form of tax on earnings which impacts all workers who have to pay once they earn over a certain threshold amount. This record is important when claiming certain welfare benefits such as State Pension and Maternity Allowance. Express.co.uk has compiled a guide to show you how you can check your National Insurance record.
National Insurance contributions must be paid by individuals who wish to qualify for certain benefits and State Pension.
The following benefits are contingent on NI contributions:
READ MORE: State pension claimants may be eligible for a council tax reduction
Basic State Pension - you need 30 years of National Insurance Contribution.
Additional State Pension
New State Pension - To qualify for the full State Pension you need 35 years’ worth of NI contributions. To get any State Pension at all, you need 10 years of NI contributions.
National Insurance contributions are mandatory for all individuals aged 16 and above who are either:
Anyone who does not meet this threshold may be entitled to make voluntary contributions to avoid gaps in their NI record, thereby ensuring they qualify for the aforementioned benefits and State Pension.

There are different types of National Insurance which are known as classes.Each person is placed in a different class depending on the type they pay which is dependent upon their employment status and how much they earn.Class 1 is for employees who earn more than £183 a week and are under State Pension age.These payments are automatically deducted by one’s employer.Class 1A or 1B is when employers pay these directly on their employee’s expenses or benefits.Class 2 covers self-employed workers earning more than £6,475 a year.Class 3 is for voluntary contributions which are paid to fill or avoid gaps in one’s NI record.Class 4 covers self-employed people earning profits of £9,501 or more a year.
You can check your National Insurance record online here.
This record will show what you have paid up to the start of the current tax year, any National Insurance credits you have received, any gaps in contributions which do not count towards the State pension.
In addition, you will find out if you can pay voluntary contributions to fill any gaps and how much this will cost.

To use this platform you will need a Government Gateway user ID and password to check your National Insurance record.
If you do not have a user ID, you will need to create one when you check your record.
Your record will not show National Insurance contributions from the Isle of Man if you reach State Pension age after April 5, 2016.
If you have made contributions there, you need to email the National Insurance office in the Isle of Man to find out how much you have paid.
The email address is: [email protected]

PIP or Personal Independence Payments are a state benefit issued to those who incur extra costs from a disability or long-term health condition. But are Personal Independence Payments increasing in 2021?
Personal Independence Payments - known as PIP - are a non-means-tested Government benefit paid to those with long-standing health conditions or disabilities. The amount you get depends on how your condition impacts you, and an assessment is carried out to ensure claimants receive the correct amount.
There are several criteria to be aware of if you are looking to claim PIP.
Claimants must be aged 16 or over, and in most cases must not have reached state pension age.
Those claiming PIP need to have a health condition or disability which makes daily living or getting around difficult and has done for at least three months.
You can make a new PIP claim by calling the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), or you can nominate someone else known as an appointee to do this for you.

Before you call, you will need:
Benefits are often changed in line with inflation or other such financial implications - but what about PIP?
Claimants will be pleased to hear PIP is increasing in 2021, but the amount you receive will depend on a few factors.
PIP will increase both in the daily living component and mobility element in April 2021 - in line with the new tax year.

The daily living portion of PIP is paid to those who need extra help with day-to-day tasks.
In the 2020/21 tax year the daily living element was £59.70, however, this will increase to £60.00 for 2021/22.
And for those on the enhanced daily living component, this will also increase from £89.15 to £89.60.
The standard mobility element of PIP is £23.60, however, this will be boosted to £23.70 for the 2021/22 tax year.
The enhanced mobility component will also increase from £62.25 to £62.55.
Those claiming PIP for the first time will be sent a ‘How your disability affects you’ form which should be filled in accurately.
The form is then returned to the DWP, who will start processing your claim when they receive your form.
If more information is needed, an independent health professional will send you a letter to invite you to an assessment over the phone.
You’ll be asked questions about your ability to carry out activities and how your condition affects your daily life.
Finally, the decision whether or not to award PIP, and how much you may get, will be made clear through a letter.
PIP is continually reviewed to ensure claimants receive the correct amount.

Manchester United travel to Anfield to face Liverpool this weekend top of the Premier League table after beating Burnley at Turf Moor and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says his players can't wait for the test.

Manchester United travel to Anfield to face Liverpool this weekend top of the Premier League table after beating Burnley at Turf Moor and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says his players can't wait for the test.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Manchester United go to Anfield on Sunday at the perfect time after leapfrogging Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table on Tuesday night. A 1-0 win over Burnley saw the Red Devils move three points clear at the summit and showcase their title credentials after grinding out a tough victory.
Paul Pogba's deflected second-half volley was enough for the Red Devils to end the day top of the Premier League standings for the first time since the final day of the 2012-13 season.
United have not won the league since that season and have struggled to even maintain a sustained title challenge, their best finish since Sir Alex Ferguson's 2013 retirement coming in 2017-18 when Jose Mourinho's men finished 19 points behind Manchester City.
It looked earlier this season that it would be another year of concentrating on Champions League qualification but they have rallied in recent months since a 6-1 defeat to Tottenham and another Old Trafford loss to Arsenal.
United now head to reigning champions Liverpool, who are unbeaten at home in the league since April 2017, this weekend knowing victory would move them six points clear of the Reds, who were previously slated as favourites for the crown but are now under real pressure from both United and Manchester City.
And Solskjaer has warned Jurgen Klopp's side - who are winless in their last three top-flight outings and lost to Southampton last time out - that United travel to Merseyside "hungry" and full of confidence as they look to make a real statement to the rest of the division.
"Brilliant position to be in," the Norwegian manager told Sky Sports after the hard-fought victory at Turf Moor. "We know we're going to the champions, they've had an unbelievable three-and-a-half seasons.
"We know it's going to be a difficult game for us but we're ready for it. We couldn't have asked for a better time to play them.
"We're in good shape, good form and we're hungry. That's a big thing. These boys are hungry, they want to get better and that's a test again. A test of character and a test of quality."
On the win over Burnley, Solskjaer added: "When you get three points in the Premier League it makes you smile. It was a hard-fought three points. It always is up here.
"I thought the second half we played really well then you expect the onslaught the last five minutes but we were looking good and we held out.
"They are so well-organised and there’s not many spaces, but we did look at some of the spaces.
"Great cross and very well-executed finish, then we could've had one or two more to calm the nerves towards the end, but we just like to do it the hard way."
United were denied a first-half goal when captain Harry Maguire was adjudged to have fouled Erik Pieters at the back post as he headed across Nick Pope into the far corner, but Solskjaer strongly disagreed with the decision to rule out his effort.
He said: "Definitely not a foul by Harry in his goal. If you can’t jump and head it in like that, I don’t believe that’s anywhere near a foul.
"Apart from that, we started playing after the five minute stoppage with the red card and the foul by Luke.
"Delighted with the response after a little bit of a tough first half an hour."
Pogba agreed with his manager and said to Sky Sports: "It was a goal, for sure. It was a goal. I don't know, he just jumped, he headed it, it was a beautiful goal then the referee decided that it wasn't, a strange decision.
"But we got the result that we wanted so we are happy."
The goalscorer also reflected: "We know it's not easy to play here and we got the three points so we have to be happy about that.
"But there's still a long way [to go], and we're going to have to focus again until the end of the season.
"Obviously you could see that the game was going both ways. Like I said, it's very hard to play here. They have a style of play, we know them, they are very strong and we knew it would be difficult.
"We had to keep our heads calm and just stay focused in ourselves then the goal would come, and it did come. It was a great performance from everyone, good focus, and we have to keep doing this.
"I'm always happy when I win. Obviously today we won so I'm very happy. I'm happy we played well and happy we are at the top.
"But like I said, it's still a long way to go, there are big games coming up, so we have to focus on that, too."
While Pogba's midfield partner Nemanja Matic said: "It was exactly what we expected and we did a great job and deserved the points. We are top of the table and we are happy.
"We are exactly where we belong. Burnley are a good side and to win here is not easy. We know that we go game by game. This one was a final and now we focus on the next one in the same way against Liverpool."
United take on Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday at 4.30pm and will also take on their bitter rivals in the FA Cup fourth round the following weekend at Old Trafford.

Manchester United moved ahead of Liverpool at the Premier League summit by beating Burnley 1-0 on Tuesday night thanks to Paul Pogba's deflected second-half volley. Express Sport rates United's performance.
Manchester United ground out a 1-0 win over Burnley at Turf Moor on a cold Tuesday night to move three points above Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table. Harry Maguire had a goal ruled out in the first half and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men looked like they might be frustrated by the resilient Clarets. But their pressure told when Paul Pogba volleyed the visitors to the summit of the English top flight in the second half. Express Sport rates and slates the Red Devils after a big three points.
David de Gea - 6
Hardly involved throughout although was made to sweat as Burnley rallied in final minutes. An otherwise quiet evening for the Spaniard.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka - 5
Had some shaky moments defensively in the first half and not as effective as Shaw getting forward with some poor crosses.
Eric Bailly - 7
Good block on first-half Wood shot and another good one on Vydra late on. Typically combative. Pace helped cover any Burnley threat on the counter.
Harry Maguire - 7
Authoritative and strong in the air and had goal harshly ruled out for an apparent foul on Erik Pieters in the first half. Reacted well to late Matej Vydra half-chance to thwart opportunity.
Luke Shaw - 6
Some decent deliveries from wide including the ball for Maguire's disallowed goal. Avoided red after lengthy VAR check in the first half. A nasty late clash of heads with Ben Mee as he bravely looked to head clear but thankfully recovered.
Nemanja Matic - 7
Brilliant pass to Cavani for a first-half chance and good use of the ball throughout. Helped United control the game in the second half and maintain pressure on hosts. Briefly looked like he might have picked up a muscle injury late on but played on.
Paul Pogba - 8
Didn't have too much say in the first half but ran the game in the second and got the goal to show for it. Arrived to the edge of the box at perfect time and great technique on the volley though was lucky shot took a deflection. Sublime link-up with Martial should've got him an assist too.
Anthony Martial - 5
Curled over when found in space by Matic and later saw a goalbound long-range curler pushed over by Pope before half-time. Took a shot off of Cavani's boot before the hour and in general play too often ineffective. Fired straight at Pope with late chance after good combination with Cavani. Limped off late on.
Bruno Fernandes - 6
Fired shots straight at Nick Pope in either half and took time to grow into game but was more incisive in second half. Won the ball and found Rashford on the right in build-up to Pogba's goal.
Marcus Rashford - 5
Disappointing with his end product in the final third until finding Pogba at the edge of the box for the goal from the right wing. Overall though, far from his best and aside from assist, not sharp enough.
Edinson Cavani - 6
Some decent movement and combination play, including with Martial for stoppage time chance, but should've done better with second-half opportunity at a corner, curling a few yards wide of the top corner. Excellent work rate and tireless pressing all game earns him an extra point over Rashford and Martial.
Mason Greenwood (on for Rashford min 80) - N/A
Got some late minutes in his legs. Didn't see too much of the ball.
Scott McTominay (on for Fernandes min 89) - N/A
Helped see out victory. Headed a bouncing ball clear after a set-piece.
Axel Tuanzebe (on for Martial min 90+5) - N/A
Replaced limping Martial late on.

Manchester United moved top of the Premier League with a 1-0 win over Burnley on Tuesday night.
Manchester United are back at the top of the Premier League after beating Burnley 1-0 on Tuesday night at Turf Moor. The Red Devils now face a potentially-title-deciding clash against Liverpool on Sunday evening in arguably the biggest game of the season.
United must surely recognise now what they have to do to go on and win the Premier League after overtaking Liverpool in the table.
The Red Devils overcame a potential banana skin to narrowly beat Burnley 1-0 through Paul Pogba's second-half strike.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side can pull six points ahead with a win over Liverpool on Sunday evening, but could well find themselves back in second with a defeat.
Pogba volleyed home for United against Burnley in a game they dominated, but never looked like comfortably winning.
JUST IN: David De Gea sounds Man Utd warning ahead of Liverpool title showdown
And the clash at Turf Moor shows that Solskjaer has been bang on with his ethos about taking one game at a time.
Every time the Norwegian has been quizzed about whether his side should be considered title contenders, Solskjaer’s answer has been the same - focus on the next match.
After the 2-1 win over Aston Villa on New Year’s Day, he said: “We’ve improved and we’re getting better.
“I think the league and the season is going to be so tight, anyway.

“There’s going to be difficult games, there’s going to be strange results. We’ve just got to keep working and improving as a team.
“We’ve done that and since Project Restart I think we’ve been a very consistent team.”
While all he would add when asked if his side were in a position to challenge was, “Every time you win a game, of course, you take one step further and it’s three points.
“In total you’ve just got to accumulate the points. The first game is just as important as the last game of the season. They all count the same.”
And speaking last week ahead of the defeat against Manchester City in the Carabao Cup, Solskjaer insisted his mind had not wandered to that fateful clash just yet.
“I’ve not started thinking about that,” he replied when asked about the potential title decider.
“We’ve got a big game here on Wednesday against City at Old Trafford.
“There are so many games you can’t think four days ahead really because there’s always something just around the corner.”
It's one game at a time for United and the next one is absolutely huge.

Trump administration readies oil bidding in Alaska wildlife refuge

By Nichola Groom and Yereth Rosen
Jan 6 (Reuters) - The Trump administration on Wednesday will open bidding on drilling leases in a pristine Arctic wildlife refuge in Alaska despite tepid interest from the oil and gas industry and a pledge from incoming Democratic President-elect Joe Biden to protect the region.
The move is among a slew of last-minute efforts by President Donald Trump's government to expand fossil fuel and mineral development in the United States before leaving office in two weeks, building on his years-long drive to maximize domestic production over the objections of environmentalists.
Officials from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management are scheduled to open and read bids received since late December on more than 1 million acres (4,000 square kilometers) of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge on Alaska's North Slope during a live video broadcast on Wednesday morning.
It is unclear if the move will reverse the fortunes of Alaska's oil production, which has been waning for decades. So far, the only clear bidder on the property, which is likely to be more costly to develop than oil acreage in the lower-48 states, is an Alaska state agency.
The state was once the second-largest producer of U.S. crude only to Texas, pumping out more than two million barrels of oil per day (bpd) in the late 1980s. Last year, it averaged less than 470,000 bpd, as the development of U.S. shale regions has made other states, notably New Mexico and North Dakota, the vanguards for new development.
The sale of drilling rights is proceeding despite a last-minute effort by environmental and tribal groups to secure a court order that would have temporarily blocked the sale.
They argued that the sale would pave the way for irreparable damage to a tundra ecosystem that is vital to polar bears and caribou, and that the federal government failed to adequately analyze the climate-warming impacts from drilling in the area.
A federal judge in Alaska denied the groups' request to block the bidding process on Tuesday.
Opening ANWR to drilling marks a win for Republican lawmakers in Alaska who have pushed for decades to open the area to oil and gas exploration to create jobs and boost state revenues, but it is unclear if the Biden administration will allow development to proceed.
White House officials would not comment on the sale.
A Biden transition team official, speaking on condition of anonymity, called the sale "the poster child for the way in which this administration is disconnected from the real needs and interests of people."
OBSTACLES TO DEVELOPMENT
Though the refuge's coastal plain is estimated to contain up to 11.8 billion barrels of oil, it has no roads, established trails, or other infrastructure - factors likely to keep interest from drilling companies to a minimum.
Due to concerns about a lack of participation in the sale, the board of the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority held an emergency meeting two days before Christmas at which it authorized spending up to $20 million on ANWR leases.
The agency intends to partner with private companies to make sure that development moves forward, it said.
A BLM spokeswoman in Alaska, Lesli Ellis-Wouters, said the agency has "received interest" in the sale, but declined to elaborate.
The Trump administration's plan to open the region also faces four separate lawsuits from environmentalists, native groups and Democratic-led states seeking to block energy development in the area.
Several major U.S. banks have also said they will not finance oil and gas projects in the Arctic.
Frank Macchiarola, senior vice president of policy, economics and regulatory affairs at the American Petroleum Institute trade group said developing ANWR was "an important opportunity" for U.S. energy security and jobs, but said low energy demand due to the coronavirus pandemic could hurt interest in the sale.

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba played a key role in leading his side to the top of the Premier League.

Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba played a key role in leading his side to the top of the Premier League.
Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has sung the praises of Paul Pogba after the Frenchman was the match winner against Burnley on Tuesday. Pogba scored the only goal of the game at Turf Moor as United moved to the top of the Premier League table, three points clear of Liverpool. The Red Devils visit Anfield to play Jurgen Klopp's side on Sunday.
Pogba was named man of the match by former United right-back Gary Neville.
The midfielder has constantly been linked with a move away from Old Trafford.
But Solskjaer says Pogba has always been a "big player" for the club and says the 27-year-old is now playing at his best.
"I've always said Paul is a big, big player for us, he's a good character in the dressing room," Solskjaer told Sky Sports.
"He's always one that the lads look to, he's a world champion of course.
"We're seeing the best out of Pogba at the moment I feel, getting better and better for every game.
"He's been injured and had COVID, it's just natural that he needed some time to get fit."
Pogba was delighted to have ground out the win in the way United did.

He told Sky Sports: "We know that the game today was very hard, very difficult and obviously we wanted to win.
"We know it's not easy to play here. We got the three points and we're happy for that but there's still a long way and now we focus again until the end of the season.
"You can see that the game was going both ways, it's very hard to play here.
"They have a style of play, very strong and we knew it would be difficult.
"We had to keep our heads calm and just focus on ourselves and hope the goal would come and it did come. It was a great performance from everyone, good focus."
Solskjaer is excited ahead of Sunday's clash with reigning champions Liverpool and says his players remain "hungry" to keep improving.
“A brilliant position to be in," the Norwegian added.
“Of course, we know we’re going to the champions.
“They’ve had an unbelievable three-and-a-half seasons so we know it’s going to be a difficult game for us but we’re ready for it.
“I think we couldn’t have asked for a better time to play them because we’re in good shape, good form.
“Hungry, that’s the big thing. These boys are hungry, they want to get better and that’s a test, again. A test of character and test of quality.”

By Ari Rabinovitch, Maayan Lubell and Steven Scheer
JERUSALEM, Jan 6 (Reuters) - Order early, pay a lot, digitise distribution and stretch the supply.
That is how Israel came to be a leader of the world's COVID-19 vaccination drive, reaching nearly 15% of the country´s 9.3 million population in about two weeks.
The first big decision was paying a premium to get early vaccines.
Israeli authorities have not said publicly what they paid for the vaccine developed by U.S. company Pfizer and German partner BioNTech.
But one official said on condition of anonymity that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government was "paying around $30 per vaccine dose, or around twice the price abroad."
Pfizer said in a statement that it uses "a tiered pricing formula based on volume and delivery dates" but declined to disclose further details.
Israel also offered the pharmaceutical companies the promise of a quick rollout that could serve as a template for other places: swift results from a small country with a universal healthcare system, patient data stored centrally and the technological savvy to ensure a digitised distribution network.
Health Minister Yuli Edelstein said freeing Israel's economy from a series of lockdowns justified any higher purchase cost or buying an excess of vaccines.
"What we basically said to Pfizer and Moderna and to the others was that if we will be one of the first countries to start vaccinating, very soon these companies will be able to see the results," Edelstein told Reuters.
"It's a kind of win-win situation," he said. "We are a small country. And I knew for a fact that we better be one of the first on the ground because after the vaccine is developed, the companies, commercially speaking, wouldn't even look in the direction of countries Israel's size."
The vaccination campaign has faced some criticism and hurdles.
Rights groups are outraged that Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip face a long wait for vaccines.
Israel's 21% Arab minority has shown an initial wariness towards vaccination.
Netanyahu's opponents accuse his right-wing Likud Party of using the vaccination campaign for political gain before a March 23 election, and lacking a clear long-term strategy for dealing with the impact of COVID-19 -- charges the government denies.
But, while Israel is in its third lockdown and faces a recession and high unemployment, it has avoided the shortages and bottlenecks faced by other countries.
DISTRIBUTION TECHNIQUES
Israel, which has reported more than 450,000 COVID-19 cases and 3,445 deaths, cast a wide net for securing vaccines early on, and last June became one of the first countries to reach a purchase agreement with Moderna.
Moderna has said it will begin delivery of 6 million doses this month, though Edelstein said the shipment was probably two months away.
In November, Israel announced similar deals with AstraZeneca and Pfizer, and the first Pfizer shipment arrived on Dec. 9.
Israeli teams repacked the large ultra-frozen pallets into insulated boxes the size of small pizzas, allowing for distribution in smaller numbers and at more remote sites.
The technique, Israel says, got the green light from Pfizer. Other refinements included squeezing more doses out of each vial than advertised.
The vaccines are handled by SLE, the logistics unit of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, in an underground facility near Israel's main airport. Thirty large freezers set to minus 70 degrees Celsius (-94 Fahrenheit) can hold 5 million doses.
SLE repackages them into bundles as small as 100 doses to be delivered to about 400 vaccine centres, said Adam Segal, SLE's logistics and operations manager.
That, officials say, means wider parallel vaccination drives nationwide, allowing easier access to small clinics as well as larger centralised centres.
UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE
A universal public healthcare system, which requires every resident to be covered by a healthcare maintenance organisation (HMO) and connected to a nationwide digital network, then kicks in.
Ran Balicer, chief innovation officer for HMO Clalit, said Israel has integrated infrastructures of digital data with "full coverage of the entire population, cradle to grave."
"So it is easy both to identify the right target population and to create data-driven 'outreach' because this is something that is done as our everyday care routine," said Balicer, who also chairs the government's expert advisory coronavirus panel.
Administering about 150,000 shots a day at clinics and special facilities, Israel has prioritised over-60s, health workers and people with medical conditions. The city of Haifa offers drive-through vaccinations.
"I have been waiting to be liberated from this pressure, from the anxiety that's there in the background all the time, to be free, to finally stop worrying," said 76-year-old psychologist Tamar Shachnai. A week into the campaign she had already received a text message with instructions from her HMO, scheduled an appointment and got her first shot.
Shachnai was vaccinated at a centre in a Jerusalem sports arena where about 500 people had passed through by lunchtime. Towards the end of the day, about 20 younger people gathered outside the arena, hoping to receive the vaccine.
Israel has also added vaccination centres in Arab towns, said Aiman Saif, the health ministry's coronavirus coordinator for the Arab community, following concerns about the low rate of vaccination among Israeli Arabs.
He said some Israeli Arabs initially appeared reluctant to be vaccinated and may have been put off by misinformation on social media, prompting Israel to accelerate a public campaign to combat "fake news" about alleged side effects.
Palestinian health official Yasser Bozyeh estimated that Palestinians would begin receiving doses in February through the World Health Organization's vaccine scheme for poor and middle-income countries.
The Palestinian Authority, which exercises limited self-rule in the West Bank and has its own health system, has also contacted private drugmakers.
Edelstein said it was in Israel's interest to make sure the Palestinian population was also vaccinated and that he was open to discussing passing on any extra vaccines once Israel meets its own demand. Netanyahu's office declined to comment.

Netflix's seductive and scandalous Regency drama Bridgerton has taken fans by storm since its December 25 release.
While the racy period drama, set in the early 19th century, has set pulses racing, it has also intrigued viewers with its captivating fashion and jewellery.
Daily Mail Australia can now reveal the estimated value of some of the sparklers worn on the series, including the infamous diamond necklace given to Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor) by Prince Friedrich (Freddie Stroma).
The cast, including the ambitious Bridgerton and Featherington families, the Queen, and Lady Danbury, were all adorned with diamonds, rubies, pearls and emeralds - but how much would they fetch in the real world?
According to jewellery experts at Steven Stone in a report by OnBuy.com, some of the iconic Bridgeton jewellery would be worth up to $12.2 million in real life.
The UK-based jeweller estimated that with at least five diamonds of approximately 10ct each used in Daphne's large white gold necklace it would be worth $6.1million.
While her more dainty gold pear shape diamond necklace worn in previous episodes would likely retail for $1 million.
According to jewellery experts, Marina Thompson’s (Ruby Barker) diamond necklace that she wore to one of the many balls on the show would cost $2.6 million, while a yellow gold turquoise butterfly necklace worn by Portia Featherington (Polly Walker) would fetch just $43,000.
One exquisite look by Lady Danbury (Adjoa Andoh) in the series was estimated to be worth an incredible $13.9million
At one ball, she accessorised her white gown with a white gold diamond tiara, estimated to be well over $8.7 million with 100ct of diamonds and a white gold marquise diamond necklace estimated to be $5.2million if using 300ct of diamonds.
However, the most pricey items according to the jewellery would have been a set of yellow gold pigeon blood ruby drop earrings worn by Queen Charlotte (Golda Rosheuvel).
As the ruby drop earrings are extremely rare, they suggested it would carry a hefty price tag of $12.2million in the real world.
It's unclear if any of the extravagant jewellery worn on the series were real, as the show's costume designer Ellen Mirojnick previously told IndieWire that her team of more than 230 people consisted of 'cutters, a corset maker, an embellishment department, shoe makers, jewelry makers, and hatters'.
It would appear that no expense was spared within the wardrobe department however, as the large team made a majority of the 7,500-plus costumes used - with lead star Daphne (actress Phoebe Dynevor) wearing more than 100 outfits alone.
Costume designer Ellen told Harper's Bazaar: '[The actresses] wore a different dress to every ball, aside from the amount of dresses that would take place from morning 'til dinner.'
Netflix hasn't yet announced a season two for Bridgerton, but all signs point to a renewal.
Given how many books are in the series by American romance novelist and Jane Austen superfan, Julia Quinn, the drama based could run for a total of eight seasons.
Bridgerton season one is available to stream now on Netflix

Oil hits 11-month high after Saudi Arabia pledges voluntary output cut

TOKYO, Jan 6 (Reuters) - Oil prices rose on Wednesday to their highest since February 2020 after Saudi Arabia agreed to reduce output more than expected in a meeting with allied producers, while industry figures showed U.S. crude stockpiles were down last week.
Brent crude rose as much as nearly 1% to $54.09 a barrel, the highest since Feb. 26, 2020. It was at $53.87 a barrel at 0536 GMT after jumping 4.9% on Tuesday.
U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) futures reached $50.24 a barrel, also the highest since Feb. 26, before slipping to $50. The contract on Tuesday closed up 4.6%.
Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter, agreed on Tuesday to make additional, voluntary oil output cuts of 1 million barrels per day (bpd) in February and March, after a meeting with the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and other major producers that form the group known as OPEC+.
The reductions agreed by Saudi Arabia were included in a deal to persuade other producers in the OPEC+ group to hold output steady.
With coronavirus infections spreading rapidly in many parts of the world producers are trying to support prices as demand takes a hit from new lockdowns being put in place.
"Despite this bullish supply agreement, we believe Saudi's decision likely reflects signs of weakening demand as lockdowns return," Goldman Sachs said in a note, although the investment bank maintained its year-end 2021 forecast for Brent of $65 a barrel.
OPEC member Iran's seizure of a South Korean tanker in the Gulf on Monday also continued to support prices. Tehran denied it was holding the ship and its crew hostage after seizing the tanker while pushing for Seoul to release $7 billion of funds frozen under U.S. sanctions.
Meanwhile U.S. crude oil inventories dropped by 1.7 million barrels in the week to Jan. 1 to 491.3 million barrels, data from industry group the American Petroleum Institute showed late on Tuesday.

Beverly Hills plastic surgeon dies from COVID-19 after patient coughed

A Beverly Hills plastic surgeon has died from COVID-19 complications after a patient who later tested positive for the coronavirus coughed on him while getting a lip injection.
Dr. Payman Simoni, 50, died on January 8 from a brain hemorrhage after he was placed in a medically induced coma when his lungs began to fail.
Katy Amiri-Younesi, a longtime family friend, said the death came as a 'shock' to loved ones of the father of two.
'The shock is that he was so perfectly healthy,' Amiri-Younesi told KCAL.
'He's a doctor, I called him when I had COVID. He was instructing me what to do.'
The father of two had performed the elective procedure on a woman in December, who had her temperature checked and filled out a coronavirus questionnaire, according to TMZ.
The maskless woman, however, was not tested for COVID-19 but called the doctor days later to tell him she had tested positive for the virus.
Friends of Simoni told KCAL that he felt 'perfectly fine' for about week and went into quarantine and began experiencing symptoms.
The doctor was taken to Cesars-Sinai Medical Center when he began feeling shortness of breath, and quickly deteriorated.
Last May, Beverly Hills City Council members voted 4-1 to roll back its moratorium on elective surgeries amid the pandemic to match the state's regulations which had just been loosened by California governor Gavin Newsom, the Los Angeles Times reported.
The city council argued that residents should be able to receive treatments for medical conditions like a flagging heart valve and tooth aches – though it opened the door for cosmetic surgery.
Councilman Dr. Julian Gold, an anesthesiologist, said at the time that the 'butt and boob thing is the smallest part of the conversation.'
Some doctors had chosen to hold off on performing cosmetic surgeries, and it remains unclear why Simoni had continued his practice amid the pandemic.
Daily Mail has reached out to Simoni Plastic Surgery for additional comment.
Friends and family said Simoni was 'fun-loving and ambitious,' and had recently become certified as a magician.
In November, Simoni filmed an upcoming episode of 'Gown and Out in Beverly Hills' with Patrik Simpson in which he performed the same procedure, TMZ reported.
Simpson told the outlet that Simoni was also wearing a mask during his surgery – but the two posed for a maskless picture in a post-operation appointment.
The coronavirus pandemic in Los Angeles County has hit grim new levels in the first days of the year as California's COVID-19 death toll reached 30,000 on Monday.
Hospitals in Los Angeles are so swamped that patients on gurneys are being treated in gift shops and parking lots.
Officials started urging people to wear masks even at home if they go outside regularly and live with someone elderly or otherwise at high risk.
Anger over the restrictions has led to a recall movement against Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom that has nearly gathered the 1.5 million signatures needed to put his career to a vote.
Some Californians are escaping by heading to neighboring Arizona, where they can eat and drink at bars and restaurants.
The state announced Monday that it will vastly expand its effort with new mass vaccination sites at parking lots for Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, Petco Park in San Diego and the CalExpo fairgrounds in Sacramento.
By week's end, the city of Los Angeles planned to convert its huge COVID-19 testing site at Dodger Stadium into a vaccination center to handle 12,000 inoculations daily.
Los Angeles County is an epicenter for the COVID-19 outbreak, accounting for some 40 percent of California's virus-related deaths and a huge number of new cases.
On Monday, nearly 8,000 people were hospitalized in Los Angeles County, which had fewer than 50 intensive care units available in an area with a population of 10 million people, said Dr. Christina Ghaly, county director of Health Services.
While the county saw a dip in new cases, the director of public health, Barbara Ferrer, said that probably is due to decreased testing after the New Year's holiday. She predicted another increase in cases from people who gathered together unsafely over the holiday.
Ferrer also said COVID-19 is still killing someone in the county every eight minutes, on average.
There is a sliver of hope, with new hospitalizations statewide down from about 3,500 a day earlier this month to about 2,500.
Some forecasts have predicted the hospitalizations will level off by the end of the month.

Joe Root's men are notoriously slow starters on tour and captain is all too aware how a two-match series can be lost in the first session

Joe Root's men are notoriously slow starters on tour and captain is all too aware how a two-match series can be lost in the first session
January is a time to form new habits and for Joe Root’s England that means resolving to start the Test series against Sri Lanka On Thursday looking like winners rather than losers.
England are notoriously slow starters on overseas missions. They have lost all but one of their opening Tests in away series over the past three years and were beaten in the first match of last summer by West Indies.
The exception was in Galle in November 2018 when England set the trend for a whitewash by going after Sri Lanka’s bowling. The difference is they went into that series on the back of one-day cricket and three weeks in Sri Lanka. This time they have had quarantine, one intra-squad game and a handful of nets to get them going.
To say England are undercooked is an understatement and Root knows how a two-match series can be lost in the first session, recalling on Tuesday when his team were 27 for nine in Auckland three years ago.
“We've started series poorly and if we are to keep improving as a team we can't be behind the eight ball going into the second Test match of every series. We are very keen to start off strongly and to get ahead. The way we are going to do that is by scoring big first-innings runs and controlling the game,” Root said.
England are a stronger side than Sri Lanka but the advantage has been levelled out by resting players and the fact a two-Test series narrows the gap between teams as well. Moeen Ali’s illness has also robbed England of their matchwinner in Sri Lanka three years ago and limited their options.
This series was originally due to be played in March last year but was cancelled as England scrambled to get home before the pandemic shut down global travel. Zak Crawley and Dom Sibley had started that trip well with runs in warm-up games but will be opening the batting for the first time in Asia. Crawley looks a fine player of spin; Sibley limited and with work to do. At three will be Jonny Bairstow who has played only one of England’s past 11 Tests while Dan Lawrence, an “eye-catching player” according to Root, is an unknown quantity on debut at five.
Root confirmed he will bat four, his favoured position and where he scored a brilliant, series-clinching 124 in Kandy; the last time he contributed properly to an England win when a series was still there for the taking.
Moeen’s car share to the airport with Chris Woakes has proved expensive, cutting into England’s resources further; Woakes ruled himself out on Tuesday after only just emerging from quarantine and with not enough bowling in his legs to be considered.
Woakes will be missed; although possibly more for his batting as a capable player of spin, something he showed in the Old Trafford run chase against Pakistan last year. Instead Sam Curran will be the all-rounder and he is more than capable of a counter attacking making 48 and 64 in two innings on the last Sri Lanka tour. The left-armer should also create some rough for Dom Bess as he starts out on a daunting Asian winter.
England inspected the pitch at length on Tuesday and rain has left it softer than usual but it is expected to be a low, slow turner with little bounce in the Galle tradition; a pitch that requires finger spinners to bowl flatter and quicker like Rangana Herath did taking 102 wickets, mainly in the DRS era, skidding the ball on for lbws and bowled.
Herath worked with Bess, helping him on a Lions spin camp in India in late 2019, an experience that helped strengthen his action and led to an England recall.
Bess may have to add pace to his bowling on this pitch otherwise he could sit up and be hit by players brought up on spin, and perhaps Jack Leach, who fires it in a little quicker, will be the more dangerous bowler with Root backing up. However, Leach has played just two first-class games in 12 months and Bess has not bowled in a proper match since August.
“There's no point hiding behind the fact: we haven't had the ideal lead up to this series. It's probably the shortest lead up we've ever had going into an away Test series,” admitted Root.
England are likely to pick one of James Anderson or Stuart Broad, the pair more ready to accept their workload will be managed on unresponsive Asian pitches. Curran’s cutters will be handy while Mark Wood would give Root a pace option as well as reverse swing, although the lack of cricket in Galle and recent rain may mean the ball does not abrade as much as usual.
Galle was buzzing two and half years ago with 8,000 England fans. This time there will be only one supporter, Rob Lewis from Sunbury-on-Thames, who has hung around in Sri Lanka since March waiting for England to return. Covid restrictions mean he will have to watch from the ramparts, the Barmy Army reduced to a solitary figure in these strange times.
England (likely): Crawley, Sibley, Bairstow, Root, Lawrence, Buttler, Curran, Bess, Broad, Wood, Leach.
Sri Lanka (possible): Karunaratne, Kusal Perera, Mendis, Chandimal, Mathews, Dickwella, Shanaka, Hasaranga, Dilruwan Perera, Embuldeniya, Asitha Fernando.

MS-13 member shot himself dead in front of Dallas cops

A MS-13 gang member wanted for murdering his ex-girlfriend in front of their daughter in California shot himself dead as cops swarmed in to arrest him in Texas.
Herbert Nixon Flores, 46, had been at large since last Wednesday after a surveillance camera captured the horrific moment he executed Karen Ruiz, 31, in the driveway of a home in Pacoima, California, where she was dropping off their three-year-old girl.
The Irving Police Department said the FBI Fugitive Task Force from Los Angeles had pinned Flores' location to Arlington, where he was visiting family members.
Agents saw Flores getting in a vehicle Saturday and driving towards Dallas as the Dallas Police Air Unit and cops on the ground tracked his movements.
Flores noticed he was being tailed by the police and abandoned his vehicle. He then starting walking and shot himself with a handgun as cop cars pulled up.
The Irving Police Department said he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Video footage of the chilling murder released by the Los Angeles Police Department last week shows Ruiz reaching into the backseat where her daughter was sitting last before Flores suddenly pulls up behind her SUV.
Ruiz leaves her child in the vehicle and runs towards the front door entrance crying for help. Flores finally catches up to her and fires at least six shots and escapes.
A man in the background can be heard saying in Spanish, 'he killed her, he killed her,' while other children and adults screamed.
Ruiz's daughter is currently in the care of family and is safe, according to police.
Los Angeles Detective Sharon Kim told KTLA that Flores, a citizen of El Salvador, had a history of domestic violence.
Flores had also stalked Ruiz for several months before he killed her.
Authorities last Friday charged him with murder, child endangerment and shooting at an inhabited dwelling or occupied car.
'The relationship was violent,' Kim said. 'She had several reports made against him over the years and most recently she took out a restraining order against him due to some violent acts he committed against her.'

Tottenham's manager has few sympathies for his Fulham counterpart Scott Parker's complaints over their hastily rearranged fixture

Tottenham's manager has few sympathies for his Fulham counterpart Scott Parker's complaints over their hastily rearranged fixture
Jose Mourinho has claimed Fulham will owe Tottenham Hotspur an apology if Scott Parker fields a full-strength team on Wednesday night while dismissing the complaints of the west London club over the rearranged fixture.
Parker described the Premier League’s decision to rearrange their game against Spurs at 48 hours' notice as “scandalous” because Aston Villa could not fulfill their scheduled fixture following a coronavirus outbreak.
Fulham were originally due to face Tottenham on December 30, but had to pull out of the game two hours before kick-off following a number of positive coronavirus test results of their own.
Parker is upset that Fulham were not officially notified of the potential fixture reshuffle before their FA Cup game against Queens Park Rangers on Saturday, in which he fielded a strong side.
But Tottenham head coach Mourinho said: “If they come with half of the team, I will be the first one to apologise to them. And I will be the first one to say we played this game with an advantage. If they come with their best, I think they should apologise to all of us. Come on, let’s play football. Let’s behave the best we can. Let’s protect our industry. Let’s protect our image and let’s play football.
“We played, if I’m not wrong, 11 more matches than Fulham since the beginning of the season. Eleven (Mourinho was one game out. Tottenham have played 29 games and Fulham have played 19). We played every week, three matches a week. We played four matches in one week. They played Saturday against QPR. In London. They have Sunday, Monday and Tuesday to prepare for the game.
“Do you want to finish the season or no? Do you want football to keep going or no? Do you want to be the only country in Europe without football or no? Do we want the end of the season with champions, a cup winner, with relegation, with Europe, or we don’t? That’s the main question. Do you football journalists want to keep working or no? Do we want to have our salaries, yes or no? What do we want?
“We should see their team, their starting line-up, their bench, the players that start, the players on the bench, and the players not involved in the game. And after that we can all feel sorry for them. Or we can all think that they shouldn’t speak. My feeling is just my feeling. It’s that they will play with everybody. Maybe one player out. Maximum two.”
The growing list of postponed games has increased fears that the Premier League season may need to take a break or even may not finish and Mourinho has questioned why clubs are not being made to play weakened teams to fulfill fixtures.
“Since pre-season, when I was told that if you have 14 players available you play football, since that moment I thought we are going to play, to end the season and we are not going to have problems,” said Mourinho.
“That rule, if we can call it a rule, for some reason changed and we had some matches postponed and since that moment the situation becomes a little bit more difficult. And then we need leadership, we need decisions to be made and if we all are very selfish or if we all want the perfect situation for ourselves, it’s going to be very, very difficult for the Premier League to make it amazing for everyone. That’s obvious.
“I can also ask why Aston Villa played against Liverpool in the cup and Aston Villa doesn’t play against me tomorrow? Of course, Aston Villa have very good young players and they played a beautiful game against Liverpool, but I would love to play against that Aston Villa. Why don't I play? And you want me now to be crying about that? I’m not crying about that. I’m crying about we cannot have more matches postponed, we can’t.
“For the teams in Europa League, it is impossible to have more matches postponed. So if we don't play against Aston Villa because Aston Villa has, let's say, half of that team with coronavirus, if we cannot play against Aston Villa - which I accept in the same way that I was not happy but I accepted not to play against him in the past week - come on. We need to play. If it's not Fulham then against somebody else. But we need to play a match. We cannot have any more matches postponed.”
Tottenham have not had a public case of coronavirus, but Mourinho has claimed the club have managed to keep going despite registering weekly positive tests that they have chosen to keep private.
“I think it's a personal thing,” said Mourinho. “If I had the coronavirus, I would make it public. Immediately. I don't have any problem with that. I think it's just a personal thing.
“Some clubs they want to [say] and some individuals they want to or they don't want to. I don't think that that is a problem. What I can tell you and, of course you understand it is without names, we had cases - almost every week. One here, another one in here. One assistant coach, one player, one medical staff. We had it all the time.
“But we went in the direction of: we do the best we can. We try to work internally the best we can. We have to play football because if you have 14 players available, you have to, we have to play. We never tried to take any advantage of it. And that's it.”

Endokrinoloji Uzmanı Dr. Pınar Şişman, Obezite'nin korona virüs enfeksiyonu için yüksek risk oluşturduğunu, bu dönemde sosyal mesafe ve hijyen kurallarına uyarken beslenmeye de dikkat edilmesi gerektiğini söyledi. Obez bir kişinin korona virüsü ağır geçirme ihtimali, yaş, cinsiyet ve diyabet, yüksek tansiyon, kalp veya akciğer hastalığı gibi yandaş hastalıkların varlığına bakılmaksızın yüksek olduğunu belirten Özel Medicana Bursa Hastanesi Endokrinoloji Uzmanı Dr. Pınar Şişman, “Gerek gençler, gerek kronik hastalığı olmayan kişiler olsun, vücut ağırlıkları obezite derecesine ulaşmışsa hastalığı daha ağır geçirme riskleri yüksektir. Obezitesi olan kişilerin savunma hücrelerinden salgılanan ve virüsün çoğalmasını önleyen ‘interferon’ adı verilen proteinleri ve virüse karşı oluşan antikorları üretme kapasitesi sınırlıdır. Ayrıca, vücuttaki yağ doku, virüs için rezervuar görevi görüyor ve dolayısıyla obez kişilerde virüs daha uzun süre vücutta korunaklı bir şekilde kalabiliyor” dedi. Obezitenin teneffüs yolları üzerinde mekanik etki oluşturarak solunum yolu enfeksiyonu riskini arttırdığını belirten Dr. Pınar Şişman, “Solunum sisteminin enfeksiyonla mücadele etme kapasitesini zayıflatıyor. Bununla birlikte obezite damarda pıhtı oluşması ve bu pıhtıdan kopan parçanın başka bir bölge damarında tıkanmaya sebep olması olarak da adlandırılan tromboembolik olay riskini arttırıyor. O zaman bu süreçte sosyal mesafe ve hijyen kurallarına uyarken beslenmeye de dikkat edip, kilo kontrolü sağlamak önemli. Bu hedefle obez bireylerin salgın döneminde yüksek kalorili beslenme düzeninden kaçınması ve hafiforta düzeyde egzersiz yapması çok önemlidir” diye konuştu.

A NEW MOON is just around the corner and that means the skies will soon darken without the Moon's familiar glow - but what exactly is a New Moon and when is the next one?
New Moons mark the end of one lunar cycle and the start of the next one. Symbolically, New Moons are seen as an opportunity to start anew and plan ahead. Astronomically speaking, however, New Moons are the natural consequence of our satellite's orbit of the Earth.
About every 29.5 days the Moon goes through eight distinct lunar phases.
The phases in order are New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Third Quarter, and Waning Crescent.
The US space agency NASA explained: "Some nights, the Moon might look like a narrow crescent.
"And on other nights, you might not be able to see the Moon at all."

As the Moon races around our planet, the amount of sunlight that falls on it's near or Earth-facing side changes.
The Moon, after all, does not shine with light of its own and instead reflects sunlight back at us.
One half of the Moon is always completely illuminated although we only experience that one night - the night of the Full Moon.
When viewed from space, however, there is always a Full Moon.
On the night of the New Moon, the lunar orb positions itself between the Sun and the Earth.
Consequently, the Moon's far side is completely lit up and the Moon appears to temporarily vanish from sight.
NASA said: "Following the night of each Full Moon, as the Moon orbits around Earth, we start to see less of the Moon lit by the Sun.
"Eventually, the Moon reaches a point in its orbit when we don't see any of the Moon illuminated.
"At that point, the far side of the Moon is facing the Sun."

If you look up tonight (January 11) you might notice a thin sliver of the Moon's face looking down at you.
The Moon is presently in its Waning Crescent phase and is less than four percent illuminated.
The lunar orb will reach its New Moon phase at about 5am GMT on Wednesday, January 13.
NASA said: "The Moon appears to be partly but less than one-half illuminated by direct sunlight.
"The fraction of the Moon's disk that is illuminated is decreasing."
There will be a total of 12 New Moons and 12 Full Moon this year.

Xavier prepared for heavy pressure from St. John's

Xavier's first eight games showcased plenty of offense but the last two games have seen the Musketeers encounter significant struggles scoring and now comes a matchup against a team expected to deploy a full-court press on defense.
Xavier is anticipating encountering heavy pressure and hopes it can shake off the two sub-par offensive showings Wednesday night when it hosts St. John's at Cincinnati.
"They're going to be relentless for 40 minutes," Xavier coach Travis Steele said. "They're going turn it on at the very beginning of the game all the way to the horn."
Xavier (8-2, 1-2 Big East) enters the contest averaging 80.2 points per game but through its first eight games it was averaging 84.1 points. After opening conference play with a 91-88 victory over Marquette, the Musketeers have done poorly against Creighton and Seton Hall.
In their last two games, the Musketeers have scored 61 and 68 points, respectively. They shot 35.3 percent in a five-point loss at Creighton on Dec. 23 and then trailed by 16 at halftime and missed 19 of 24 3-pointers in last Wednesday's 85-68 loss to Seton Hall.
Zach Freemantle scored 20 points after being held to a combined 16 points in the first two conference games but second-leading scorer Paul Scruggs was held to six points and has scored 17 points in the last two games after scoring 29 against Marquette.
St. John's (6-4, 1-3) is playing its first game since halting a three-game losing streak with a 94-83 win over Georgetown on Dec. 20. The Red Storm had their last scheduled game against DePaul postponed on Saturday due to a COVID-19 issue, marking the seventh game St. John's had canceled or postponed so far.
Before their layoff, the Red Storm got 26 points from Greg Williams Jr. and 20 from Julian Champagnie, who is second in the Big East in scoring at 20.3 points per game.
Despite often using a pressing defense, St. John's struggles defensively at times. The Red Storm enter Wednesday with the league's top scoring offense (82.6 points) but the team is allowing the second-most points (80.3) in the 11-team Big East.
"More than anything, I'm looking for consistency in how we play and our guys play," St. John's coach Mike Anderson said to the New York Post last week "I still believe we got to get better defensively for 40 minutes. We're good for 20, 25 minutes. You're not just going to outscore people."
Xavier has won 11 straight over St. John's and leads the all-time series 13-3.

Theranos 'destroyed database that proved blood test was a fraud'

Theranos, the blood-testing start-up that promised to revolutionize health care only to collapse after its hyped product turned out to be a dud, destroyed incriminating evidence proving that it engaged in fraud, prosecutors allege.
Federal authorities also allege the company’s star CEO Elizabeth Holmes, 36, and her former lover and COO, Ramesh ‘Sunny’ Balwani, 56, used funds from investors to subsidize an extravagant lifestyle while peddling a fraudulent product.
Prosecutors submitted a filing to federal court in San Francisco on Monday alleging that Theranos executives destroyed data that proved their blood-testing product was inaccurate.
Knowingly misleading investors by providing false data is a federal crime.
The company knew about its inaccurate testing data that was collected over a period of three years, according to The Register.
The data ‘was stored on a specially-developed SQL database called the Laboratory Information Systems (LIS),’ according to the court filing.
The database ‘even flagged blood test results that might require immediate medical attention, and communicated this to the patient’s physician.’
Holmes and Balwani have pleaded not guilty to charges they defrauded investors, doctors and patients by falsely claiming Theranos could revolutionize medical lab testing with technology that could enable a wide array of tests with a few drops of blood.
Before its unraveling, Theranos had been valued at $9billion and made Holmes, a Stanford University dropout who founded the company in 2003 at age 19, a Silicon Valley star.
Holmes' trial is scheduled for March 2021.
She and Balwani were originally indicted in June 2018. Balwani's case is being handled separately.
Before its collapse, Theranos boasted that it had developed a test that would allow patients to receive results in minutes after providing a drop of blood.
But federal prosecutors allege that Theranos executives knew their product was only half-reliable, as the failure rate for the tests was 51.3 per cent.
‘In other words, Theranos’s TT3 blood test results were so inaccurate, it was essentially a coin toss whether the patient was getting the right result,’ prosecutors said, citing the company’s own data.
‘The data was devastating.’
A grand jury investigating fraud claims against the company subpoenaed the database, only for the company to allegedly destroy it.
‘On or about August 31, 2018 - three months after a federal grand jury issued a subpoena requesting a working copy of this database - the LIS was destroyed,’ the federal government alleges in its court filing.
‘The government has never been provided with the complete records contained in the LIS, nor been given the tools, which were available within the database, to search for such critical evidence as all Theranos blood tests with validation errors.
‘The data disappeared.’
The government also alleges that Balwani hired a crony and paid his firm $10million over seven years to run the database.
Theranos entered into a contract with IncRev Corp, which was run by Shekar Chandrasekaran, a friend of Balwani’s, according to the court filing.
In 2017, Theranos imposed cost-cutting measures. As a result, the firm stopped uploading data into the database.
Nonetheless, IncRev was still paid $159,000 a month to maintain it, according to prosecutors.
The feds allege they have internal company emails which prove that Theranos and its lawyers worked to conceal the findings in the database from the grand jury.
Instead of handing over all of the data with the inaccurate results, Theranos only provided backup of the database, meaning that the evidence given was incomplete and investigators needed to piece it together with other findings.
The backup data that was given to investigators was only accessible through a computer password that Theranos executives couldn’t remember, according to prosecutors.
‘The government retained a computer forensic expert to assist in retrieving this data, who found that the “key” file on the hard drive, required to reconfigure the SQL database, is itself encrypted by a distinct password (not the one provided with the transmittal letter to open the hard drive), and cannot be opened,’ according to the court filing.
As investigators were demanding to see the database, Theranos decided to shut down the facility that housed the database in Newark, New Jersey.
Company executives were warned beforehand by IT contractor Michael Chung that taking apart the hardware and servers would make it ‘almost impossible to recreate the database.’
But the company went ahead and shut down the database anyway, denying both its own executives and the government access to the database.
The federal government alleges that Chandrasekaran was fully aware of the implications of shutting down the Newark facility.
Federal prosecutors also revealed that while investigators were closing in on Theranos, Holmes was using company funds to fund an extravagant lifestyle that included ‘travel on private jets, stays in luxury hotels, and access to multiple assistants.’
‘Although Defendant's assistant was an employee of the company, she handled a range of non-business tasks for Defendant, including personal clothes and jewelry shopping, home decorating, food and grocery buying, and other items,’ prosecutors said.
Prosecutors allege that Holmes knew that the company’s tests were inaccurate since she would personally field complaints about the defective product even while publicly claiming that it was effective.
In November, Holmes' attorneys filed a motion in an attempt to block prosecutors from mentioning her wealth, spending habits and luxurious lifestyle during her fraud trial.
According to a filing submitted in late November and obtained by CNBC, the government is alleging that Holmes 'had her Theranos-paid assistants run personal errands, perform personal tasks, and purchase luxury goods'.
But her defense attorneys are claiming that prosecutors are trying to use a motive argument based on the assumption that Holmes' lavish lifestyle may have motivated her to 'commit fraud to acquire or maintain that lifestyle'.
'The amount of money Holmes earned in her position at Theranos, how she chose to spend that money, and the identities of people with whom she associated simply have no relevance to Ms Holmes' guilt or innocence,' her attorneys wrote in the motion.
'Many CEOs live in luxurious housing, buy expensive vehicle and clothing, travel luxuriously and associate with famous people – as the government claims Ms Holmes did,' her attorneys said.
Before Holmes' fall from grace she employed personal assistants to run her luxury shopping sprees, traveled by private jet and stayed at exclusive hotels.
Theranos became a big name in Silicon Valley led by Holmes, a Steve Jobs-obsessed leader who wore black turtlenecks everyday like her Apple idol.
She attracted investors and venture capital firms and the company was valued at $9billion before crashing in 2015.
Holmes is set to go to trial March 9 after it was pushed back due to the coronavirus pandemic. Balwani will face trial separately and at a later date.
Holmes, a Stanford University dropout, launched her Palo Alto blood-testing start up in 2003 when she was 19 years old.
A notoriously secretive company, Theranos shared very little about its blood-testing machine with the public or medical community.
Holmes said she was inspired to start the company in response to her fear of needles.
But an investigation by The Wall Street Journal in 2015 found that Theranos' technology was inaccurate at best, and that the company was using routine blood-testing equipment for the vast majority of its tests.
If convicted, both Holmes and Balwani face up to 20 years in prison.

Pep Guardiola partly blames his messaging for Manchester City's slow start to the season

'We lost it a bit this season, that was my fault – the message was not clear,' Guardiola said

'We lost it a bit this season, that was my fault – the message was not clear,' Guardiola said
Pep Guardiola has blamed his confused messages in part for Manchester City’s slow start to the season but warned his players there can be no let up following their marked return to form.
City are vying for a seventh consecutive win in all competitions when Brighton visit the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday and are unbeaten in 13 games going back to a 2-0 defeat at Tottenham in November.
In addition to the absence of a pre-season, injury problems and Covid-19 inflicted troubles, Guardiola believes his side were guilty of doing too much running with the ball, rather than letting it do the work, earlier in the campaign – an issue he put down to poor communication on his part.
“The only difference now is that we run less [with the ball], we were playing running too much [with the ball],” the City manager said. “When you play football you have to walk – or run much, much less. Without the ball, you have to run. But with the ball you stay more in the position and let the ball run, not you. And we improved in these games, in these terms.
“We lost it a bit this season, that was my fault – the message was not clear but we came back a little bit [to] the principles, but the reason why, especially, was because the players needed time to get the best condition after no pre-season, and it’s normal that after good results and performances they visualise again that we can do it again in the way we did it in the past. And that is the way we have to continue.
“We dropped points to West Brom and West Ham away and the public opinion said we do not deserve to be contenders. We tried to say to the players, ‘Be calm’ because this is a strange situation. The most intelligent thing I can say is, ‘Brighton – Brighton, Brighton’, and after that I can see what happens.”
Guardiola will be without striker Sergio Agüero, who is still isolating after coming into contact with a friend who had coronavirus, and the injured pairing of Aymeric Laporte and Nathan Ake against Brighton. Guardiola also revealed that Ferran Torres and Tommy Doyle lost “two to three kilos” as a result of contracting Covid-19.
Meanwhile, Fernandinho is thought to be torn over his future and has left the door open for City to make an offer to stay at the club beyond the end of his contract this summer. The Brazilian, 35, has received offers from South America and Europe over a pre-contract but it is understood he is yet to make a final decision on where he will play next season.

Dominic Solanke’s 10th goal of the season looked like it would be enough, but Millwall fought back to equalise through Matt Smith
Despite Bournemouth missing the chance to move into the top two, the half-term report for Jason Tindall is largely positive.
At the Championship’s midway point, they sit just a point off the automatic promotion places, having lost many of their most valuable players in Tindall’s first post as a manager.
Dominic Solanke’s 10th goal of the season looked like it would be enough to overhaul Swansea but Millwall fought back to equalise 11 minutes from time through Matt Smith.
The pendulum swung several times in the first half. Initially Bournemouth were dominant and might have led in the second minute when David Brooks snaked his way between two defenders and was denied only by Bartosz Bialkowski’s forearm from close range. But having weathered the storm it was Gary Rowett’s side who then created the better chances.
Jed Wallace should have put them ahead when he collected Ryan Woods’ clever pass but could not beat the onrushing Asmir Begovic, who saved with his legs. Jake Cooper then saw his header cleared off the line from Scott Malone’s corner before Malone himself was unable to convert the rebound when Begovic parried Wallace’s free-kick shortly afterwards.
With Rowett readying his team talk as the more satisfied of the two managers, he saw Bournemouth take the lead on the stroke of half time. Dominic Solanke profited from Junior Stanislas’ clever turn and pass as he buried his finish inside Bialkowski’s near post.
After starting the season strongly, one win in 14 has left Millwall stranded in lower mid-table, with the prospect of a relegation battle beginning to loom on the horizon for Rowett’s side.
They were by no means outclassed here and deservedly equalised when substitute Smith prodded home with his first touch after Cooper had headed down a long free-kick. Before that, Kenneth Zohore had struck the base of the post with a free-kick, after he had been fouled by Jack Simpson.
Bournemouth (4-2-3-1): Begovic; Smith, S Cook, Simpson, Kelly; L Cook, Lerma (Riquelme 83); Brooks (King 83), Stanislas (Billing 71), Rico (Stacey 87); Solanke. Subs: Dennis (g), Surridge, Carter-Vickers, Kilkenny, Anthony. Booked: Lerma
Millwall: (5-2-3): Bialkowski; McNamara, Hutchinson, Pearce (Smith 78), Cooper, Malone; Woods, Leonard; J Wallace (Thompson 84), Zohore (Bennett 78), Parrott (Bovardson 78). Subs: Fielding (g), Williams, Bradshaw, Ferguson, Romeo. Booked: Cooper, Leonard
Referee: Mr T Robinson (West Sussex)

SinoVac firmasının verileri daha tam olarak net oluşmadı ama onda da yüzde 90'ın üzerinde rakamlar konuşuluyor. O yüzden baktığımızda aşılamadaki temel amaç aslında antikor yanıtı oluşturmak. Yani kişide Covid-19'e karşı antikor oluşsun ve bu kişi bir daha Covid-19 olmasın. Bunu aslında tek aşı ile elde ediyoruz" diye konuştu.'A YA DA B FİRMASI HİÇBİR ŞEY DEĞİŞTİRMEYECEK'Covid-19 aşısı için A ya da B firması olmasının hiçbir şey değiştirmeyeceğini vurgulayan Prof. Dr. Recep Tekin, şunları söyledi:"Tek aşı ile birlikte aşılanmamız yüzde 90'ın üzerinde antikor yanıtı oluşturuyor ama hala insanlarda soru işareti oluşuyor. Acaba ikisini birden olsak daha iyi mi olur? Tabi ki ikisi birden yapıldığı zaman belki antikor yanıtımız birinci aşıda düşük ise ikincisinde artabilir. Gerekli mi? Gerekli değil. Çünkü biliyoruz ki şu an aşıya ulaşmak çok zor. Çoğu ülkeler aşı için sipariş vermiş. Sıraya giriliyor. Ulaşamıyoruz. Böyle bir ortamda bir aşıyı bulmuşken ikinciyi yapmak gerçekten kaynak israfı oluyor. O yüzden istisnai durumlar dışında diyelim ki siz aşı yaptınız antikor oluşmadı, riskli gruptasınız. O zaman belki ikinci aşı yapılabilir ama ikisini aynı anda yapmanın bir faydası olmayacaktır. Belki antikor yanıtınızı artıracaktır ama siz tek aşıda bunu elde ediyorsanız ikinci bir aşıyı yapmaya gerek yoktur. O yüzden halkımıza şunu söylüyoruz; Rahat olun tek aşıda antikor yanıtı oluşmuşsa ikinci aşıya hiç gerek yoktur. Belki söylentiler olabilir. İki aşı ile birlikte antikor yanıtınızı arttırabilirsiniz. Ama buna gerek yok, ihtiyaç duyulmuyor. Zaten şu an aşıya ihtiyacımız var. Çok fazla kaynak israfı yapmayalım. Çünkü daha riskli gruplarımız var ve bu riskli grupların aşıya ulaşması gerekiyor. Böyle bir ortamda kalkıp ikinci aşıyı israf etmenin bir anlamı yok. Özel durumlar dediğimiz; Aşı yapıldı ama tutmadı, istisnai kişiler olabiliyor. Bir firmanın aşısı tutmayabilir, aşının etkinliği olmayabilir o zaman başka bir firmanın aşısı ile bir şekilde aşılanma yapılabilir.

Querrey defends escape from Russia, says he did it for family

Jan 6 (Reuters) - American Sam Querrey, who was sanctioned by the ATP for breaching COVID-19 protocols at the St Petersburg Open in October, has defended his actions, saying he did what he felt was right as a father and a husband.
Querrey left Russia in a private jet with his wife and baby son after all three tested positive for the virus before the start of the tournament, sneaking out of their hotel early in the morning without informing reception.
The ATP, the men's governing body, handed the 33-year-old a suspended $20,000 fine which will be lifted if Querrey does not commit further breaches of health and safety protocols related to COVID-19 within a probationary six-month period.
"I ... had to make a decision between 10 p.m. and 10 a.m. the next day," Querrey told Sports Illustrated in an interview.
"I had my wife there, and I had my baby there, and as a human decision, I was like, 'Hey, I don't feel comfortable with this.' So we made the decision to charter a plane and leave."
Querrey said he was ready to quarantine in the tournament hotel for two weeks after testing positive but after two days he was told he was no longer welcome at the hotel and doctors would determine if they had to quarantine in a hospital instead.
The American said lack of clarity made it necessary for him, his wife, and their seven-month-old son to fly to London and quarantine at an Airbnb.
"I felt as a father and a husband there's a human element to this, and I had to do what I feel like is right," he said, adding that the flight cost him about $40,000 plus and he had to also pay for the stay in London for two weeks.
"I wasn't willing to let our family go to a hospital for a minimum of two weeks where we were at."
Querrey said he was "frustrated" with the media coverage of the incident.
"It made it seem like I just got COVID and bounced. I didn't feel how it was portrayed after that was fair," Querrey said. (Reporting by Sudipto Ganguly in Mumbai Editing by Robert Birsel)

Footballers might be less at risk inside Covid-19 bubbles, but they must be seen doing the right thing or the sport might be halted
To convey the simple but crucial guidelines around Covid protocols to players and staff this week, the Premier League designed a graphic that would not be too challenging for a group of elite athletes or indeed a spirited class of year-six schoolchildren.
The messages were clear: avoid spitting or nose-clearing; no handshakes or hugging; no shirt swapping. There were handy icons for those for whom English can be a struggle and reminders when face coverings had to be worn. “Social distancing whenever possible, during goal celebrations” was accompanied by the silhouette of a footballer celebrating.
The new rules were simple. The mood from the Government could not have been less ambiguous. Professional football has been given a pass to carry on as the country undergoes ever more stringent lockdown measures but the players have to do their bit too and lead by example. They might be less at risk inside Covid-19 bubbles and tested twice a week but the point is to be seen to be doing the right thing and taking seriously the minimising of risk.
The guidance was released by the Premier League on Friday and followed up on Tuesday with a letter reminding them of their responsibilities. “We are fortunate to be able to continue to play,” the Premier League chief executive Richard Masters wrote. “This brings justified additional scrutiny and the Premier League must take the lead in setting the right example to follow.”
In the first three fixtures of matchday 18 on Tuesday night one might have expected, in the football parlance, a reaction. Instead, the goals at Bramall Lane, Molineux and Turf Moor were celebrated in the normal fashion, with varying degrees of hugging and nuzzling amid mass groups of players. James Rodriguez, Everton’s Colombian star, swapped shirts with the Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Fabio Silva – at half-time – and also helped himself to the shirt worn by Joao Moutinho.
Chris Wilder and Steve Bruce, the embattled managers of Sheffield United and Newcastle United both shook hands after their match. Afterwards, Wilder offered the view that it would be “unnatural and unreal” for his players not to celebrate. He acknowledged that the Government would have the final say on football’s future this season but seemed to think it was out of his hands, sanitised or not. Perhaps Sheffield United would like an interruption to the season, but for anyone trying to keep the show on the road in the midst of a debilitating second spike this was a worrying evening.
The Premier League has done everything it can to establish strong protocols for matchdays, stadium travel and training grounds and now it wrestles with Covid-19 outbreaks and postponements. The tight schedule is asking much of the players but the game has been instructed to set an example, and set an example it must. The clubs that pay the wages of these players simply cannot afford for this season to be paused with the European Championships coming hard on its heels.
The stakes are high and football has been given the chance to save itself. For the footballers who play the game, creatures of habit who respond in the moment, and some of the managers too, there will have to be a change in attitudes. The pressure is on and the success of the season is at stake.

Concern from ministers and orders from England's top tier fell on deaf ears as every goal to go in since the new edicts sparked embraces

Concern from ministers and orders from England's top tier fell on deaf ears as every goal to go in since the new edicts sparked embraces
Premier League players flagrantly ignored the toughened Covid-19 curbs on Tuesday night, prompting Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder to claim it is "unnatural" to stop them hugging.
Concern from ministers and fresh orders from England's top tier fell on deaf ears as every goal to go in since the new edicts sparked celebratory embraces.
Just four days after the league issued fresh guidance against all "unnecessary contact", there was even a shirt swap at half-time between Everton and Wolves. At Turf Moor, Paul Pogba called over his team-mates to hug as Manchester United beat Burnley to go top of the league for the first time in more than three years.
Sheffield United players, meanwhile, had been first to forget the warnings after Billy Sharp’s penalty gave victory at Bramall Lane earlier against Newcastle. The Sheffield United captain was mobbed immediately after the goal, and there were handshakes all round between the sides at the final whistle, including between Wilder and Steve Bruce.
At Molineux, Alex Iwobi was also surrounded by celebrating Everton players after the opening goal. There were similar scenes when Ruben Neves equalised, as well as for Michael Keane's late winner.
The scenes came despite players and managers being told warned that a so-called "snooper squad" would be in the stands monitoring breaches. Despite warnings over swapping shirts, Everton's James Rodriguez exchanged jerseys with Wolves striker Fabio Silva and then also claimed the jersey of Joao Moutinho as he left the field. United and Burnley players also shook hands after the final whistle, with only the managers fist-bumping.
Wilder refused to condemn his players for letting emotions get the better of them during the 1-0 win for his rock-bottom side. "It's an emotional game," he said. "We've talked before about the country looking at us and the other two games, I understood that. But it is an emotional game on the pitch and on the touchline... it is unnatural and unreal (not to celebrate)."
Despite the league's warnings, the laws of the game do not offer any scope for players to be punished for hugging. Wilder said stopping players from embracing was impossible. "Everyone wants to continue with it in football, the decision will be made outside football through Government into the Premier League," he said. "But how can they not? They are team-mates and I don't see any way they can just walk back to the halfway line and show no emotion after what they've been through for a long, long period."
The governing bodies - including the Football Association - were already concerned that players and clubs have not listened as closely as they should have done in recent weeks with the infection rate spiking across the country and the threat of tougher lockdown measures. The Government is not about to withdraw elite sport’s right to carry on during the lockdown but football has been left in no doubt that it is not a privilege it can take for granted.
After previous on-pitch instructions were largely ignored following Project Restart, the league had been forced to toughen its position due to record numbers of infections in recent weeks.
The Premier League issued a toughened-up list of protocols on Friday calling on teams to show restraint especially when greeting friends on opposing teams. They warned the clubs that they should “avoid unnecessary contact at all times” including “handshakes and hugging” between opposing teams.
Other renewed instructions include wearing face masks on the bench, spot checks of dressing rooms and team buses to ensure social distancing measures are being followed.
The Premier League insists that the clubs investigate and sanction “individual transgressions by relevant persons”, but those do not extend to breaches on the pitch. “Failure to do so may result in disciplinary action by the league individually against the relevant person, where appropriate, and/or against the club.”
Mike Tildesley, who sits on the Sage sub-committee SPI-M, this week told Telegraph Sport it may be increasingly difficult to “justify” the Premier League and other competitions continuing. I can’t believe that an outbreak in a football club, for example, would have a significant risk of wider transmission in the community,” he said. “But we are in a dangerous situation where the R may be significantly greater than one. It may be hard to justify that, while schools are closing, football can carry on.”
Tuesday night's action came after another day of heightened anxiety in sport, with the Football Association and Premier League writing to clubs warning of fresh postponements. The FA - spooked by scenes of fans gathering on the streets at Chorley and Crawley Town on the weekend - wrote to all third-round winners warning of stricter protocols. It is “absolutely essential” the rules are followed to ensure elite football can continue, the letter adds.
Earlier, Scott Parker had said that it was “scandalous” of the Premier League to reschedule Fulham’s match with Tottenham Hotspur to Wednesday with only two days’ notice. Tottenham had been due to play Aston Villa until an outbreak of Covid-19 at Villa caused the game to be postponed.
Concern at senior government level expressed over the weekend has heightened pressure on football to keep infections in check. Alison McGovern, the shadow sports minister, said this "it is becoming increasingly difficult" for elite sport, but ministers are aware of its critical role in maintaining morale through the pandemic. Telegraph Sport has been told Sage has not been asked by the Government to consider the impact of halting elite sport, with its work focused on measures to reduce the national rate of Covid-19 infection, or R number.
As reported by Telegraph Sport, The Football League chief executive Trevor Birch wrote to the 72 clubs in its three divisions reminding them that “we will come under extreme governmental pressure if we continue to flout rules and guidance.” The EFL completed last week’s Covid-19 testing of its 72 clubs with an additional 531 players and staff from six clubs tested and 11 positive cases returned. In total, 4,038 tests yielded 123 positive tests. The EFL said 31 clubs returned no positive tests.
Sheffield United's players flocked to Billy Sharp after he scored the penalty that gave his team a first Premier League win of the season.
Wolves' players celebrated Ruben Neves' goal with as much hugging as ever.
Alex Iwobi's goal for Everton prompted a player sandwich.
There was plenty of physical contact among Manchester United's players after Paul Pogba scored.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was eager to get physical in congratulating his matchwinner.

The London Hotel Group has offered 5,000 beds to non-covid patients discharged early under the new 'hotel and home' plan.

The London Hotel Group has offered 5,000 beds to non-covid patients discharged early under the new 'hotel and home' plan.
Thousands of hospital patients are to be discharged en masse to hotels and their own homes to free up beds for critical covid cases.
The new ‘home and hotel’ plan will see patients released early on an unprecedented scale in a bid to prevent NHS services from being overwhelmed by covid cases, senior sources have told the Guardian.
Documents released to the paper further reveal that the NHS is asking care homes to immediately admit covid patients from hospital, provided they have tested negative for the virus, have been in isolation for 14 days and are not showing any new symptoms.
Voluntary aid organisations such as St John Ambulance and the British Red Cross along with armed forces medical personnel and any available NHS staff will be drafted into help those who have been discharged under the scheme.
The London Hotel Group (LHG), which owns the Best Western chain, has already begun to take in patients testing positive from King’s College Hospital in south London and is reportedly looking after them in its hotel in nearby Croydon.
The company is also in talks with 20 other NHS trusts saying it could provide as much as 5,000 beds.
Families are expected to perform a key role in monitoring and caring for relatives who are sent home days or weeks before they would otherwise have left hospital along with additional support from health professionals where possible.
LHG chief executive Meher Nawab told the Guardian: “We will be looking to roll this solution out across our hotels to provide hospitals with a lifeline at this critical time.”
However, not all have welcomed the plan, arguing it will exacerbate the situation for non-covid patients in the long run as they will likely be readmitted a few weeks later in an even worse condition.
Lucy Watson, chair of The Patients Association said: “This is a dire situation, in which the NHS often has no good options available. Discharging patients early from hospital is likely to be one of few options open to the NHS to manage the scale of the current need.
“However, early discharge can often cause problems that result in harm to the patient and the need to re-admit them. Care by volunteers in hotels is not an adequate substitute for proper hospital care.
"But at a time when hospitals are overwhelmed by critically ill patients and striving to prevent loss of life on a large scale, clearly they will be making desperate choices.”
The Department of Health and Social Care have been approached for comment.

Graham flies with Trump after saying 'enough is enough'

Sen. Lindsey Graham jumped back on the Trump plane Tuesday as he accompanied President Donald Trump on Air Force One to the border wall in Texas.
The trip comes after Graham broke with the president on Wednesday, refusing to join a Trump-backed effort to contest Electoral College counts as the vote was being certified by Congress in the hours after the MAGA riot.
'All I can say is count me out, enough is enough,' Graham told his Senate colleagues then. 'When it's over it is over.'
'It's over,' Graham said.
The South Carolina Republican's split from Trump came as a surprise, as Graham has been a close ally of the president once they repaired any hostilities leftover from the 2016 GOP presidential primary. Graham was also briefly a candidate for president in 2016.
In his Wednesday night floor speech, Graham said he opposed the effort to challenge certain states' Electoral College votes - states where groups of Republican 'alternate' electors had gathered to cast rogue votes for Trump - because the tactic had been used after the Civil War as well.
Graham explained that his home state of South Carolina was joined by Louisiana and Florida and sent two slates of electors to Congress after the 1876 race.
They did so to hold Congress hostage and force the body to end Reconstruction after the Civil War.
'It led to Jim Crow,' Graham explained. 'If you're looking for historical guidance, this is not the one to pick.'
The South Carolina Republican also said that a forming a commission to look into voter fraud, as some GOP lawmakers suggested, wouldn't do enough to change minds.
'Having a commission chosen by Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell and John Roberts is not going to get you to where you want to go, it ain't going to work,' Graham said. 'It's not going to do any good, it's going to delay and it gives credibility to a dark chapter of our history.'
Graham did throw some compliments Trump's way, calling him a 'consequential president,' just hours after the president incited the Capitol Hill riot.
He also told the chamber that he 'prayed' President-elect Joe Biden would 'lose.'
But then admitted Biden won the election.
'He's the legitimate president of the United States,' Graham said.
At a press conference Thursday, Graham said he was against using the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from power as a result of the violent mob, which killed five.
'I do not believe that's appropriate at this point,' Graham said.
He added, 'Now if something else happened all options would be on the table.'
On Monday, Graham also warned against impeaching Trump for a second time, tweeting that it 'will do far more harm than good.'
'It is past time for all of us to try to heal our country and move forward,' Graham encouraged.
The House of Representatives will vote on a resolution pushing Vice President Mike Pence and the cabinet to pursue the 25th Amendment, which would push Trump out of office with just a week and a day left in his term.
With Pence unlikely to go through with that, the House will likely vote on impeachment Wednesday.
Currently the Senate isn't set to return until January 19, a day before Biden's swearing-in.
Graham didn't speak to reporters in the press pool Tuesday, but Trump did, lashing out at the impeachment effort.
'And on the impeachment, it's really a continuation of the greatest witch hunt in the history of politics. It's ridiculous. It's absolutely ridiculous,' Trump said. 'This impeachment is causing tremendous anger.'

The positive results have renewed hope that researchers are closing in on therapies to fight the disease

The positive results have renewed hope that researchers are closing in on therapies to fight the disease
A new drug that could be used to treat Alzheimer's slows cognitive decline by one third, the initial stages of a clinical trial have found, as scientists hail the “potential therapy” for the disease.
The drug donanemab, an investigational antibody therapy, is administered via an IV infusion and targets a protein found in the brains of those with Alzheimer's disease.
A trial involving 272 patients with early symptomatic Alzheimer’s found that donanemab contributed to a “significant slowing” of their cognitive decline compared to those who received placebo, renewing hope that researchers are closing in on therapies to fight the disease.
The two-year study, which has now concluded its second phase before entering a third and final phase, found patients’ decline was slowed by as much as 32 per cent over 18 months – a reduction researchers described as “statistically significant”.
Patients’ decline was measured with memory tests alongside assessments of how well they performed everyday activities like dressing themselves and preparing meals.
Pharmaceutical giant Eli Lilly, which is leading the study, saw its share price soar by 14 per cent in light of the new discovery.
Dr Daniel Skovronsky, the company’s chief scientific officer, praised the “positive results” of the trial which has provided “confidence” that donanemab could be a potential treatment for Alzheimer’s.
The researchers have said that they are pursuing talks with global regulators about the next steps in rolling out the drug, should the final phases also prove successful.
The full results of the study, named Trailblazer-Alz, will be presented at a future medical congress and submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed clinical journal.
“We are extremely pleased about these positive findings for donanemab as a potential therapy for people living with Alzheimer’s disease, the only leading cause of death without a treatment that slows disease progression,” said Mark Mintun, the vice president of pain and neurodegeneration at Eli Lilly and Company.
“With more than 30 years of dedication to finding solutions for this devastating disease, we are proud of our progress moving the field forward and advancing the science. These positive results give us hope for patients and their families,” he added.
The trial also found that donanemab helped clear amaloid plaques, a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease, in the brain.
Six to 12 months following the treatment, the amaloid plaques were gone and did not return, said Dr. Daniel Skovronsky.
More than 850,000 people suffer with dementia in the UK, which represents one in every 14 of the population aged 65 years and over.
At the rate of current prevalence, the charity Alzheimer’s society predicts that there will be more than 1.5 million people with dementia in the UK by 2040.
The news of Eli Lilly’s potential breakthrough in finding an Alzheimer’s treatment follows the 2019 “turning point” by pharmaceutical company Biogen and trials of the drug aducanumab.
Despite initially failing trials, aducanumab proved to reduce symptoms in patients and their cognitive decline by 25 per cent after 18 months.
Biogen said that these patients who took aducanumab had better cognition, memory and language and were able to live independently for longer, including performing household chores and travelling on their own.
Michel Vounatsos, Biogen’s chief executive, said that it hoped to offer patients “the first therapy to reduce the clinical decline of Alzheimer’s disease”.

One friend recalled that he was ‘able to read the economic tea-leaves like few people of his generation’

One friend recalled that he was ‘able to read the economic tea-leaves like few people of his generation’
Sir David Barclay, who has died unexpectedly after a short illness aged 86, created with his twin Sir Frederick a business empire which began with hotels and grew to include shipping, retailing and, since 2004, the proprietorship of the Telegraph Media Group.
Identical in appearance, lifestyle and often even in dress, the Barclay brothers operated as one throughout their active business career, while doing their utmost to avoid personal publicity and discourage media scrutiny.
“Privacy is a valuable commodity,” said Sir David – reputedly the more outgoing of the two – in one of his very few public utterances. “There is no incentive for us to talk about our business affairs.”
Many years later, replying by email to a request for an interview, he added: “It doesn’t appeal to us to boast to others of how clever we have been or how successful we are.”
If there was any other difference between the twins, according to one colleague, it was that “David was more attuned to taking a risk, and Frederick was generally willing to have a look but would never bet the farm”.
The combination worked well over five decades of investment and stewardship in which – though they sometimes attracted controversy – they rarely stumbled in the accumulation of a substantial fortune.
The brothers ventured into media ownership in 1992 when they bought The European, a weekly newspaper launched two years earlier by Robert Maxwell; it closed in 1998. In 1995 they bought The Scotsman, which saw seven changes of editor during their ownership and was sold to Johnston Press in 2005.
Having hired the former Sunday Times editor Andrew Neil to mastermind their media interests, they went on in 1997 to buy Sunday Business; relaunched as a competitor to the weekend Financial Times under the editorship of Jeff Randall, it enjoyed initial success but never approached breaking even and (by then in magazine format) closed in 2008.
After these ventures in the publishing arena, the brothers had nurtured since the 1980s an ambition to own the Telegraph group.
In May 2003, when it was evident that the then proprietor Lord Black of Crossharbour was at odds with other shareholders in his master company, Hollinger International, Sir David sent a fax from Monte Carlo which said simply: “I wish to register our interest should you contemplate any serious change in your UK interests”; to which Black replied: “Conditions are quite manageable. No assets are for sale.”
By November of that year, however, Black’s position was more vulnerable, and secret negotiations with Sir David began. A deal was struck in which they would pay Black $326 million via his private Canadian company – cutting across the Hollinger board’s separate, more public attempts to find a buyer for the Hollinger group’s assets, which also included the Chicago Sun-Times, the Jerusalem Post, The Telegraph newspapers and the Spectator magazine.
The private deal with Black was overruled by a Delaware judge, and the Barclays chose instead to enter an auction run by Lazard’s in London against, among others, the owner of the Daily Mail. They prevailed in June 2004 with a bid of £665 million.
In later years, the brothers increasingly delegated the commercial leadership of Telegraph Media Group and other decisions to do with the management of their empire to Sir David’s sons Aidan and Howard.
Sir David had an astute grasp of the political landscape and one friend recalled that he was “able to read the economic ‘tea-leaves’ like few people of his generation”. But as newspaper proprietors, it had always been the brothers’ policy to intervene barely at all in editorial decisions – though their editors knew that they supported Margaret Thatcher’s enthusiasm for small government, free markets, lower taxes, wealth creation and providing the means of social mobility to everyone.
He was close to the former prime minister and also to her trusted advisers, notably Sir Gordon Reece, Sir David English and Lord (Alistair) McAlpine, who became great friends.
His patriotic sensibility – which included scepticism towards the excesses of the European Union – expressed itself mainly as an interest in people’s well-being, and along with this went a dislike of government interference in the lives of private citizens. He felt, on the whole, that politicians had let people down.
David Rowat Barclay and Frederick Hugh Barclay were born into a large family in Hammersmith on October 27 1934; David was the older by 10 minutes. Their father, also Frederick, was a travelling salesman from Kilmarnock who died when the boys were 13. David’s early years were not easy: with two of his brothers he was evacuated several times during the war and witnessed at first hand the bombing of Coventry.
But in spite of some unpleasant experiences and the loneliness of being separated from his family, in a quest for financial independence David and his brothers ventured into business for the first time when he was nine, earning a few pennies in a scheme looking after the bicycles of farmers going to market. At one point they were looked after by an elderly Christian schoolteacher who introduced him to a life of faith.
The twins left school at 14 and David would always say that he had been educated in the “University of Life”. From an early age he was a voracious reader, obsessed with newspapers and gleaning a deep understanding of business, economics and politics.
David went to work first in the accounts department of the General Electric Company, and then they both had spells as jobbing painters and decorators; they also briefly ran a corner shop until it hit financial difficulties. By 1961 they had set up as estate agents in Ledbury Road, Notting Hill, and in a fast-moving market had begun buying and trading numerous properties, eventually redeveloping run-down boarding houses as small hotels.
Their first major hotel purchase was Hyde Park North and Hyde Park West, then the Cadogan in Sloane Street in 1968, followed by the Londonderry in Park Lane two years later and the Kensington Palace, close by its namesake, in 1973. They acquired more than 15 hotels within a decade.
To finance their growing ambitions, they borrowed, and during the property crash of late 1973 and early 1974 they were affected by the banking crisis and had a narrow escape, but they managed to survive and pivot into other sectors. From then on they steadily amassed an extensive portfolio of assets, operating in private with the support of a cadre of loyal bankers who enabled them to negotiate fast and hard with cash on the table.
“They are very effective stealth buyers,” observed one financier. “They come out of nowhere and move quickly.”
The Howard Hotel on the Thames Embankment was added in 1975, but the deal which took the Barclays into a higher league was their takeover in 1983, for £47 million, of Ellerman Lines, a family-owned shipping group combining brewing with assorted other interests, which had lost its way in the global trade slump of the early 1980s. A meeting in Monte Carlo with Lady Ellerman, widow of Sir John Ellerman, the firm’s owner, was crucial in helping them to secure the deal.
Having sold the shipping arm to a management buy-out, the brothers went on to dispose of the Cameron and Tolly Cobbold breweries and pub chains at the height of the 1980s boom to Brent Walker for £240 million – five times what they had paid for the group.
They returned to the shipping business in 1988 with the $670 million acquisition of Gotaas-Larsen line of LNG and VLCC tankers, which they sold for a profit a decade later.
In 1999 they achieved another coup, providing backing to their Monaco neighbour, the fashion tycoon Philip Green, in taking over and breaking up the Sears retail group to reap another rich return. And in 2002 they bought Littlewoods for £750 million from the Moores family.
In 2003 they acquired the GUS home catalogue business, merging the businesses and closing down the department stores but maintaining and developing the online retail business, now called the Very group; the parcel business was spun out and evolved into Yodel.
In 2011, they secured a controlling stake in Claridge’s, the Connaught and the Berkeley hotels. The transaction resulted in a High Court battle for control of what was now called the Maybourne Hotel Group; the twins characteristically declined to give evidence in person, but the Court of Appeal eventually found in their favour, and they decided to sell their interest to Qatari investors.
The Barclays had also acquired the Mirabeau Hotel in Monte Carlo in 1979. In 1990 David Barclay left the UK to take up residence in Monaco; they kept a superyacht, Lady Beatrice, in the harbour, bought the local radio station, and were appointed, in 2010, “ambassadors at large for economic development” by the principality and later officer, then commander of the Ordre de Saint Charles (Monaco).
In spite of the range of his business activities, Sir David’s style was closest to that of a hotelier, having spent much of his early business career doing business with the well known “hotel tycoons” of the post-war era, where contracts were still sometimes written out on napkins.
He loved the ambience of Europe’s grand old hotels and continued to enjoy spending time in them: he was well known to staff and regular guests. When the brothers visited London they preferred to operate from the Ritz, which they acquired in 1995 for £75 million – and where, in 2013, they made a suite available to Margaret Thatcher for the last weeks of her life as a gesture of their admiration.
The sale of the Ritz early in 2020, to a brother-in-law of the ruler of Qatar, revealed a well-publicised disagreement between the brothers over the hotel’s sale process and price, which ended in court proceedings.
In earlier years their most famous joint home had been the rocky outcrop of Brecqhou, off the Channel island of Sark, which they bought for £2.3 million in 1993 and where they built a fortresslike neo-Gothic mansion, designed by Quinlan Terry, which came to symbolise their preference for privacy and fiscal independence.
They invested in a number of businesses on Sark, but in the early days relations with the community and its feudal landlord had their difficulties. The Barclays engaged in various legal and constitutional disputes – including a challenge against a local wealth tax, and another against a law of primogeniture. But recently relations had been more harmonious.
The Barclay brothers were knighted in 2000 – wearing identical Windsor-knotted purple ties and pocket handkerchiefs for the investiture, and kneeling side by side before the Queen in the first double knighthood ceremony of modern times.
This was partly in recognition of their support for medical research and children’s charities through their joint charitable foundation. They were also benefactors of London Zoo and of the Passage homeless shelter in Victoria, west London.
In 2010 Sir David was made a papal knight by Pope Benedict XVI. He took his religious faith seriously and enjoyed quoting the scriptures; over a lifetime he explored a wide range of denominations, from being an active Pentecostal in his early life, to periodically frequenting Anglican churches. Latterly he became closer to the Catholic Church.
Sir David, who was always generous with his advice, and took time to encourage people he met, committed much of the last 20 years to writing, making a record of his philosophy of life for future generations of his family, and working on an unpublished memoir.
In 1955, when he was 20 and she was 19, David Barclay married Zoe Newton, a much-photographed model well known for appearing in the “Drinka Pinta Milka Day” ads. They had three sons, Aidan, Howard and Duncan. That marriage ended in divorce in the 1980s; he married, secondly, Reyna Oropeza, with whom, in 1989, he had another son, Alistair. He had nine grandchildren.
Sir David Barclay, born October 27 1934, died January 10 2021

Boris Johnson will test out round-the-clock vaccine hubs

Boris Johnson is considering opening round-the-clock vaccination centres – just days after Downing Street said there was no demand.
The Daily Mail has been told that the Prime Minister has signed off on a pilot for hubs that will open for much longer than is currently the case.
Twenty-four hour, seven-day-a-week centres are under consideration, a senior Government source said, in an attempt to ensure people receive the jab as quickly as possible.
‘As well as more day-time appointments we are considering a pilot where vaccinations are offered for longer hours,’ the source said.
Mr Johnson’s decision comes just days after Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer demanded round-the-clock vaccinations.
At the time, Number 10 suggested there was no ‘clamour’ for such a service.
Last night NHS England said that while there was not enough vaccine supply to justify a 24-hour service at the moment, it could be effective in future when more vaccine is received.
It was reported last night that the Prime Minister had clashed with NHS chiefs over the pace of the Covid jab rollout.
Officials said there had been ‘tough’ exchanges over what Mr Johnson considers to be excessive bureaucracy and a lack of data.
Last night Downing Street and NHS England said reports of a rift in the Financial Times were ‘completely untrue’.
The newspaper said that one person briefed on the tensions between NHS boss Sir Simon Stevens and Number 10 said they had been simmering since before Christmas.
Mr Johnson was said to be concerned that some non-frontline NHS staff had been vaccinated before some people aged 80 and over, the priority age group.
The FT said the frustrations were behind the decision to invite Brigadier Phil Prosser, commander of military support for the vaccine, to a Number 10 media briefing on the programme’s rollout last week.
A source claimed the appearance had been intended to ram the message home to Sir Simon that Mr Johnson was threatening to give the military a bigger role in the programme unless the rollout was accelerated.
But NHS insiders told the paper it was Sir Simon who had proposed Brigadier Prosser’s attendance. Downing Street and NHS officials insisted the new arrangement, in which the military was embedded with health teams, was now working well and that Mr Johnson was satisfied with progress.
Earlier yesterday, the Health Secretary announced that police could be prioritised alongside teachers and shop workers in the second phase of the Covid vaccine rollout. Matt Hancock said he had told officials to look ‘very carefully’ at professions that come into contact with the public.
Britain’s most senior police officer said yesterday that her officers should be ‘properly recognised’ on the prioritisation list ‘so they can continue to keep others, as well as themselves, safe’.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Dame Cressida Dick told The Times that she had asked the Government to consider the case for inoculating frontline workers earlier than planned and was ‘delighted’ to hear that it was being considered.
The latest figures revealed last night that a total of 2,431,648 had received a first dose of the vaccine by the end of Monday.
This was up 145,000 on the previous day but well behind the daily numbers needed to reach 2million a week.
Under the Government’s strategy, the 15million most vulnerable people in Britain – over-70s, health workers and care home residents – will receive their jab by February 15. All over-50s and vulnerable people will receive a Covid jab by the end of April and then the second phase will start, which will likely prioritise frontline workers.

PARIS, Jan 6 (Reuters) - French artificial heart maker Carmat said on Wednesday that it was preparing for the commercial launch of its products in the second quarter of this year, in a European market which could have at least 2,000 patients a year.
Carmat said its artificial heart would be marketed under the brand name of "Aeson". Aeson would be launched commercially in Germany in the second quarter, while the French market would be targeted around the same time.
"I am happy to confirm that we will be ready to start selling our product as early as Q2 2021," said Carmat chief executive Stephane Piat.

A walk can be a vital lifeline to the outside world, especially for those who live alone

A walk can be a vital lifeline to the outside world, especially for those who live alone
It is little wonder that many people are confused. On Sunday, the Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, backed a police force that had fined two women for driving a few miles to go for a walk together. The next day, however, he appeared to reverse course completely.
Standing in front of that familiar “Stay Home” lectern at his Downing Street press conference on Monday, he said: “Please get out there.” Exercise is good for your physical and mental health, conceded Mr Hancock, and for many being able to go for a walk with a friend is their only social contact, although he maintained that they should adhere to distancing rules.
Since March, the public have had to contend with dozens of changes to lockdown rules, an unwillingness by ministers to distinguish between legal obligations and guidance, and often contradictory government communications. All the while, the spread of the virus has been blamed on the population’s perceived failings, with the enthusiastic approval of broadcasters who have decided that it is their journalistic duty to expose holes in compliance rather than ask whether the lockdown measures make much sense in the first place.
It is all very well scientists, or well-paid broadcasters for that matter, demanding ever-tighter lockdown measures from the comfort of their large houses. But, as Bryony Gordon writes in this newspaper today, the country now faces a spiralling mental health crisis that has been exacerbated by lockdown.
Calls to the helpline run by the charity Mind have doubled, and emergency referrals of those in mental health crisis have risen. The situation is likely to be worsened, she writes, by blaming the public for not doing enough to save lives.
In such circumstances, being able to go for a walk in the park with a friend is not a frippery, to be restricted lightly. It may well be a vital lifeline to the outside world, especially for those who live alone.
Mr Hancock’s apparent volte face is therefore welcome, but it does reflect a wider strategic confusion within Government. Ministers have to deal with the challenge of controlling the spread of the virus, but also the costs of their measures, not least for physical and mental health more broadly. It is not a dilemma that they have always managed well

Move Treasury to Leeds and Home Office to Newcastle to break London stranglehold over ideas, 'Blue Wall' think tank says

It came as Boris Johnson appointed the head of the universities watchdog to head a 'rapid review' of Government delivery

It came as Boris Johnson appointed the head of the universities watchdog to head a 'rapid review' of Government delivery
The Treasury should be moved to Leeds and the Home Office to Newcastle to overcome the “institutional resistance” of the civil service to new ideas, a ‘Blue Wall’ think tank has said.
A new report by the Northern Policy Federation, backed by MPs, says 50,000 civil servants should be moved out of London to Leeds, Manchester, York and Newcastle to overcome a lack of diversity of thought in Government departments.
Research by the think tank suggests establishing 11 civil service “clusters” across the North could bring £3bn of growth to the region, while polling shows 70 per cent of voters would support the move.
The report also suggests that large parts of the Department for Health should be moved to Liverpool, the Department of Education and Ofsted to Lancaster, and the Ministry of Justice and Department for Media and Culture to Greater Manchester.
In their place, “core teams” of civil servants would remain in Whitehall to support the Government.
The authors say that the “relocation index” considers population size, skill levels, job density, productivity, digital connectivity and house prices of areas to match each of the departments’ needs.
It came as Boris Johnson on Tuesday appointed the head of the higher education regulator, Sir Michael Barber, to conduct a “rapid review” of Government delivery.
Sir Michael, an educationalist who previously headed Tony Blair’s delivery unit in Downing Street, will help ensure the Government remains "focused, effective and efficient".
The review will be seen as a continuation of the Whitehall reforms set in motion by Dominic Cummings, the Prime Minister’s former chief adviser, who reportedly declared a “hard rain” would fall on the civil service.
It follows a week after a call between the Prime Minister and business leaders, in which he is claimed to have said: “The British state as a whole, or in parts, in places does have a problem and inability to act and make decisions as fast as I would like.”
The Prime Minister’s spokesman said of Sir Michael: “He has unique experience that will complement the knowledge and experience of senior civil service leaders and it’s important that we draw on best expertise for us to ensure we are delivering effectively for the public.”
The Government has already announced that 22,000 civil servants will move out of London, bringing Whitehall closer to new Tory seats won in Labour’s former heartlands in the North and the Midlands, known as the “Red Wall.”
In last year’s budget, the Chancellor Rishi Sunak also announced that a new campus would be established in the North of England focussed on economic decision-making.
The campus will include teams from the Treasury, the Department for International Trade, the Business Department and the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government.
It will house 750 civil servants, up to 300 of which will be from the Treasury, with an announcement on the location likely to be announced shortly before or during this year’s Budget in March.
However, the NPF suggests that the current plans do not go far enough, with Tom Lees, the NPF’s director, warning that the civil service is in need of “significant reform” and lacks “diversity of thought, background and life experience”.
The report is backed by Scott Benton, Dehenna Davison and six other 2019 intake “Blue Wall” Tory MPs.
Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, Mr Lees said: “We often talk about diversity. More women on boards, more cultural backgrounds and different expertise.
“But the thing that truly matters is cognitive diversity, and when you look at the top of the civil service, eight in 10 of the permanent secretaries went to private schools, and only one in ten permanent secretaries has a STEM background.
“If we want to have better policy making at the top of Government, do we not need more people with STEM backgrounds, with understanding and expertise?
“If you look at how London voted in the referendum compared to other bits of the country, it’s clear that it is the heart of Remain. And it would be absolutely amazing if that did not flow through into the civil service, because often a workforce is somewhat representative of where it is.
“You could bet money on the fact that the civil service is Remain-dominated.”
A Cabinet Office spokesman said: “Decision makers should be close to the people they serve and we want to see opportunity, jobs and investment fairly distributed across the country.
“That’s why we’ve committed to relocating Civil Service roles out of central London, building on the thousands of civil servants we already have working across the United Kingdom.
"This will strengthen the Union, spread opportunity more equally and transform diversity of thought in the Civil Service.”

Mohammed Islam, 53, was hit by a car as he made a food delivery in Marple, Stockport, Greater Manchester. He was rushed to hospital in a critical condition but tragically pronounced dead on Sunday, January 10
A 14-year-old boy has been charged with murder after a "loved and respected" restaurant owner was run over by his own car after a robbery.
Mohammed Islam, 53, died on Sunday afternoon, January 10, after the tragedy in Stockport, Greater Manchester.
He was hit by the vehicle as he made a food delivery near the junction of Lyme Grove and Hazel Avenue, and was taken to hospital in a critical condition.
Mr Islam, also known as Nowab Miah, owned the Marple Spice restaurant in Marple, and leaves behind a family who are “devastated beyond belief”.
The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with murder and numerous driving offences.
He has been remanded in custody and is due to appear at Manchester Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, January 13.
Detective Chief Inspector Liam Boden, of GMP's Major Incident Team, said: "As our investigation continues I would like to pay tribute to Mohammed's family who have shown such admirable bravery and dignity this week during the most tragic of circumstances imaginable.
"They and the local community have responded stoically in the last few days and we are doing all we can to support Mohammed's loved ones with specialist officers at this awful time.
"Our priority is to ensure they get the answers they are undoubtedly owed and we urge anyone with information or footage relating this incident to submit to our portal or to contact us via phone so we can ensure we ascertain the full details of this incident."
Anyone with information about the incident at the junction of Lyme Grove and Hazel Avenue should call 0161 856 9821 or 0161 856 9790, quoting log number 2499 of 08/01/2021, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
A fundraising page has been set up to support Mr Islam's family, and has already received more than £12,000 in donations.
Part of his family’s statement read: "Dad was everything you could ask for in a parent; a mentor, a role model – our best friend. We shared everything with him and there was nothing we couldn't tell him that he couldn’t fix.
"He was extremely loyal and nothing came between him and his family. Our Mum is overcome with grief; Dad was her life partner, her best friend and her rock.
"They were inseparable since the day they met and we don't think she will ever be able to move on from this tragedy.
"To our Dad, family and the community was everything. He dedicated his time to helping others and he was loved and respected by everyone who knew him.”

Bitcoin soared on Wednesday to touch an all-time high, as the cryptocurrency continued trading wildly.
The price of bitcoin rallied to hit above $35,000 as of about 1:07 a.m. EST Wednesday, according to data from Coin Metrics.
The price surge came just days after it slumped more than 10% to $29,316. That followed a more than 300% jump in 2020 to levels above $29,000.
On Monday, JPMorgan published a note with a bold long-term price target for bitcoin, claiming the cryptocurrency could soar to as high as $146,000 as it competes with gold as an "alternative" currency. The precious metal also saw sizable gains in 2020, with spot gold rising about 25% for the year.
The bank's strategists, however, said that bitcoin will need to become substantially less volatile before it can match gold in terms of market value. The price of the cryptocurrency is known to go through wild swings.
The U.S. investing banking giant's call was notable given CEO Jamie Dimon's past comments on bitcoin. Dimon once called the cryptocurrency a "fraud."
Meanwhile, PwC's global cryto leader Henri Arslanian told CNBC's "Street Signs Asia" on Monday that the recent surge in bitcoin to record levels was in part driven by the entry of larger, institutional investors into the market.

Die Zahl der Todesfälle hat erneut die Marke von 1000 überschritten.
Berlin (dpa) - Die deutschen Gesundheitsämter haben dem Robert Koch-Institut (RKI) 21.237 Corona-Neuinfektionen binnen eines Tages gemeldet. Außerdem wurden 1019 neue Todesfälle innerhalb von 24 Stunden verzeichnet, wie das RKI am Morgen bekanntgab.
Der Höchststand von 1129 neuen Todesfällen war am 30. Dezember erreicht worden. Bei den binnen 24 Stunden registrierten Neuinfektionen war mit 33.777 am 18. Dezember der höchste Wert gemeldet worden - darin waren jedoch 3500 Nachmeldungen enthalten.
Eine Interpretation der Daten bleibt schwierig, weil um Weihnachten und den Jahreswechsel Corona-Fälle laut RKI verzögert entdeckt, erfasst und übermittelt wurden. Dem Verband Akkreditierter Labore in der Medizin (ALM) zufolge war die Zahl der Labortests über den Jahreswechsel im Vergleich zur Weihnachtswoche noch einmal weiter gesunken. Verglichen mit der Woche vor Weihnachten hat sich die Zahl in der vergangenen Woche ungefähr halbiert.
«Wir erwarten, dass zum Jahresanfang mit der Öffnung von Arztpraxen und Teststellen wieder mehr Personen getestet werden», hatte der erste Vorsitzende des Verbands, Michael Müller, am Dienstag erklärt. Das RKI geht davon aus, dass die Meldedaten zum Infektionsgeschehen frühestens Ende nächster Woche/Anfang übernächster Woche wieder belastbar sind, wie es auf Anfrage hieß.
Die Zahl der binnen sieben Tagen an die Gesundheitsämter gemeldeten Neuinfektionen pro 100.000 Einwohner (Sieben-Tage-Inzidenz) lag am Mittwochmorgen bei 127,3. Ihr bisheriger Höchststand war am 22. Dezember mit 197,6 erreicht worden. Die Unterschiede zwischen den Bundesländern sind jedoch enorm: Die höchsten Inzidenzen hatten am Dienstag Sachsen mit 262,1 und Thüringen mit 244,6. Den niedrigsten Wert hatte Bremen mit 73,7.
Das RKI zählte seit Beginn der Pandemie 1.808.647 nachgewiesene Infektionen mit Sars-CoV-2 in Deutschland (Stand: 06.01., 00.00 Uhr). Die Gesamtzahl der Menschen, die an oder unter Beteiligung einer nachgewiesenen Infektion mit Sars-CoV-2 gestorben sind, stieg auf 36.537. Die Zahl der Genesenen gab das RKI mit etwa 1.451.000 an.
Der bundesweite Sieben-Tage-R-Wert lag laut RKI-Bericht vom Dienstag bei 0,81 (Montag: 0,85). Das bedeutet, dass 100 Infizierte rechnerisch 81 weitere Menschen anstecken. Der Wert bildet jeweils das Infektionsgeschehen vor 8 bis 16 Tagen ab. Liegt er für längere Zeit unter 1, flaut das Infektionsgeschehen ab. Das RKI betonte, dass der R-Wert wegen der Verzögerungen gegebenenfalls unterschätzt werde.

The theme park has been closed to visitors since the coronavirus pandemic struck last March, and will now be used to help boost California's flagging vaccination rate
A Disneyland is going to be a "super" Covid-19 vaccination site, it has been revealed.
The iconic California theme park will be used as one of several large distribution sites opening up in the state as cases soar with hospitals nearing full capacity.
California has lagged behind in its vaccination rate, using only a third of its doses so far.
The so-called "happiest place on Earth" will become the region's first "super" distribution site from next Monday, county officials have confirmed.
The state reported just under 40,000 new cases on Monday and 264 deaths, with California ranking 42nd out of the 50 US states in its vaccination rate according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Disneyland has been closed to visitors since mid-March when the coronavirus pandemic first struck, but its sister resort, Walt Disney World in Florida, has been open to reduced numbers of guests since July.
The theme park will have the capacity to vaccinate thousands of people daily.
California Governor Gaving Newsom said: "We recognise that the current strategy is not going to get us to where we need to go as quickly as we all need to go.
"That's why we're speeding up the administration not just for priority groups but opening up large sites to do so."
California is the state with the third highest death rate in the USA, which is the country with the highest number of Covid-19 deaths in the world with almost 400,000.
Los Angeles County's top public health official, Barbara Ferrer, added: "The damaging impact to our families and our local hospitals from this surge is the worst disaster our county has experienced for decades."

SINGAPORE — The global economy could be in for "a lost decade" with subdued growth after the Covid-19 pandemic triggered the worst economic recession since World War II, the World Bank said on Tuesday.
"If history is any guide, unless there are substantial and effective reforms, the global economy is heading for a decade of disappointing growth outcomes," the Washington D.C.-based group said in its biannual Global Economic Prospects report.
The bank said economic prospects were already weakening before the pandemic due to an ageing population and low productivity growth. And the global Covid outbreak will likely worsen that slowdown, it added.
The World Bank projected that global potential growth — which assumes the economy operating at full employment and capacity — will slow to 1.9% a year from 2020 to 2029. Before the pandemic, potential growth was expected to be 2.1% a year over the ten-year period, said the bank.
It explained how the pandemic would hold back global economic growth over the long term:
Such a long-term slowdown in the global economy would come even as it is set to recover in 2021 from last year's slump. After contracting 4.3% in 2020, the global economy is forecast to grow 4% this year, the World Bank estimated.
But not all is lost. The bank said there are measures that policymakers can take to mitigate or reverse the economic damage from the pandemic.
Possible measures include spending in infrastructure, support to boost female employment and diversifying the economy so that it's not overly reliant on particular sectors, said the World Bank.
Reforms that countries undertake should depend on their respective government finances, priorities and economic structures, it added.
"Reforms to increase investment in physical and human capital and to raise the labor supply could more than reverse the pandemic's damage to potential growth over the 2020s," the World Bank said in its report.
"Investors have typically recognized past reform efforts with upgrades to their long-term growth expectations."

Ginger Spice Geri Horner has shared the sweetest birthday message to mark Spice Girls bandmate Mel C's 47th birthday as she paid tribute to her 'wonderful Spice sister' and pal
Spice Girls singer Geri Horner has paid a sweet tribute to bandmate Mel C on the star's 47th birthday.
The pop group, who formed in 1994, consisted of Melanie Brown (Scary Spice), Melanie Chisholm (Sporty), Emma Bunton (Baby Spice), Geri Halliwell (Ginger Spice) and Victoria Beckham (Posh Spice).
And Geri has paid tribute to Mel C by dubbing her "my wonderful Spice sister" during the sweet display after the groups - except for Victoria - got together once again for their tour in 2019.
Geri took to her official Twitter account to write and publish the message on Tuesday, January 12.
The star took the moment to tell Mel C that she is "so proud" of her and is "wishing you so much joy, love and success".
Geri tweeted: "It’s your bday! Happy birthday @MelanieCmusic. A wonderful spice sister.
"So proud of you. Wishing you so much joy, love & success."
She added the praying hands emoji to her message.
Geri also accompanied the moving message with four throwback photographs of the pair.
The photos included one of the pair singing on stage together while dancing, cuddling and posing up a storm for the capturing lens.
One black and white shot show them with their arms around one another as they stuck their tongues out.
Another showed Mel C with her arms tightly around Geri.
It comes after Mel B has teased that Victoria Beckham will take to the stage once again with the chart-topping girl group after turning down the 2019 reunion tour.
Speaking to Daily Star and other press about which members of the band will be involved in the new Spice Girls shows, Mel B confirmed: "I think it's all of us. I think so.
"Until the restrictions are eased it's all up in the air but we are all raring to go.
"Between us as Spice Girls we are all dying to get back up on stage and perform."

Es ist eine bewegte Woche in der US-Politik. Noch nie dürfte eine Wahl im US-Bundesstaat Georgia für so viel Aufmerksamkeit gesorgt haben. Die Stichwahlen werden zur Zitterpartie um die künftigen Machtverhältnisse im Land.
Washington/Atlanta (dpa) - Die wichtigen Stichwahlen im US-Bundesstaat Georgia um zwei Senatssitze sind zur Zitterpartie geworden.
Nach Auszählung der allermeisten Stimmen lagen die Kontrahenten US-Medien zufolge in der Nacht zu Mittwoch (Ortszeit) in beiden Rennen jeweils nahezu gleichauf. Die Demokraten Jon Ossoff und Raphael Warnock fordern die bisherigen republikanischen Amtsinhaber David Perdue und Kelly Loeffler heraus.
Kurz vor Mitternacht meldete der Sender CNN einen Vorsprung des Republikaners Perdues von nur 456 Stimmen - bei mehr als vier Millionen ausgezählten Stimmen und einem Auszählungsstand von über 95 Prozent. In der zweiten Stichwahl lag der Demokrat Warnoch etwas deutlicher, aber immer noch knapp vorne. Der Sender Fox News verbreitete ähnliche Zahlen.
Die Stichwahlen in dem südlichen Bundesstaat entscheiden über die künftigen Mehrheitsverhältnisse im US-Senat - und darüber, auf wie viel Spielraum der künftige US-Präsident Joe Biden in den ersten zwei Jahren seiner Amtszeit hoffen kann. Denn vom Wahlausgang in Georgia hängt ab, ob Bidens Demokraten doch noch die Kontrolle über den Senat erringen können.
Den Republikanern vom scheidenden US-Präsidenten Donald Trump reicht auch nur ein weiterer Sitz, um die Mehrheit in der Parlamentskammer knapp zu behalten. Der Senat bestätigt unter anderem Kandidaten des Präsidenten für hohe Regierungsposten oder das Oberste Gericht und kann Gesetzesvorhaben blockieren.
Am 3. November hatte parallel zur Präsidentschaftswahl auch etwa ein Drittel der Senatssitze zur Abstimmung gestanden. In Georgia erreichte im ersten Durchgang jedoch keiner der Senats-Kandidaten die nötige absolute Mehrheit. Das machte die Stichwahlen nötig.
Die demokratischen Kandidaten müssten sich beide durchsetzen, damit es eine Pattsituation mit 50 zu 50 Stimmen in der Kammer gibt. Ein Patt könnte dann von Amts wegen von der künftigen US-Vizepräsidentin Kamala Harris zu Gunsten der Demokraten aufgelöst werden. Zunächst war unklar, wann es belastbare Ergebnisse aus Georgia geben wird.

Little Mix has cut Jesy Nelson from its Sweet Melody behind the scenes music video as the remaining three members go on as a trio without Jesy as she works on her mental health
Jesy Nelson has been cut from Little Mix's Sweet Melody behind the scenes music video.
The 29-year-old is no longer in the behind the scene clips which were the last she filmed with her bandmates before announcing in December that she is leaving the band of four to focus on her mental health.
Little Mix took to its official Instagram account to reshare the sultry clips with their followers as they celebrated the hit going to Number 1 in the singles chat.
However, all trace of Jesy from any of the videos has been seemingly edited and removed following her exit.
The remaining three singers - Jade Thirlwall, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards - could be seen dancing along with the backing dancers.
On its account which sports 13.7million followers, the caption read: "Sweet Melody vid rehearsals."
The girls then took to the comments section to have some harmless banter with their millions of fans.
Perrie commented: "Dear Jade’s braids. I nearly lost an eye. I got whiplash. And you went in my mouth a few times."
Jade responded to her comment: "It was after this Perrie told me to move out of the way a bit after nearly killing her with my braids for the 173627th time."
Jesy announced that she was leaving the band at the end of last year.
She wrote a heartfelt statement to break the news. Jesy wrote: "To all my Mixers. The past nine years in Little Mix has been the most incredible time of my life.
"We have achieved things I never thought possible. From winning our first Brit Award to our sold out shows at the O2.
"Making friends and fans all over the world I can't thank you all enough form the bottom of my heart for making me feel like the luckiest girl in the world.
"You have always been there to support and encourage me and I will never ever forget it."
"The truth is recently being in the band has really taken a toll on my mental health. I find the constant pressure of being in a girl group and living up to expectations very hard.
"There comes a time in life when we need to reinvest in taking care of ourselves rather than focusing on making other people happy, and I feel like now is the time to begin the process.
"I need to spend some time with the people I love, doing thing that make me happy."

Man Utd creep above Liverpool with hard-fought Burnley win as Pogba proves worth

Burnley 0 Man Utd 1: Paul Pogba bagged the crucial goal to earn Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side three points at Turf Moor and send them to top of the Premier League table ahead of Liverpool
Manchester United limped to the top of the table thanks to a moment of brilliance from Paul Pogba at Turf Moor.
The French superstar struck with a sublime volley on 71 minutes to help United overcome a stubborn Burnley outfit and leapfrog Liverpool at the summit of the Premier League.
The performance will hardly send shivers down the spines of their title rivals.
But this won't bother Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, whose side are now looking down on the rest after 17 games of the season for the first time since December 2012, when Sir Alex Ferguson was boss.
Solskjaer made wholesale changes from the side that edged past Watford in the FA Cup last time out.
Eric Bailly was the sole survivor, while Cavani returned from a three-match ban along with the likes of Pogba, Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford.
The Clarets, who needed extra time and penalties to overcome League One minnows MK Dons in the FA Cup last weekend, made four changes.
England Goalkeeper Nick Pope returned after recovering from an ankle injury and replaced shootout hero Will Norris.
The Clarets had picked up points in recent weeks to climb out of the relegation zone and were looking to win three league games on home soil for the first time since 2017.
But Turf Moor had been a happy hunting ground for United of late, with them winning on their last four Premier League visits here.
Solskjaer's men also came to town unbeaten on the road and high on confidence following 10 league games without defeat, to leave them sitting on the shoulders of Liverpool at the top of the table.
Solskjaer insisted the table meant nothing to him at this stage of the season due to the topsy-turvy nature of a campaign being played out in exceptional times.
But deep down he knew overtaking his most bitter rivals ahead of a trip to Anfield on Sunday would be a huge boost to his side.
It was United who threatened first on 15 minutes when Fernandes's instant shot stung the palms of Pope, before Anthony Martial's overhead kick was blocked by Matt Lowton.
At the opposite end the Clarets nearly punished a mistake by Fernandes when Ashley Westwood and Ashley Barnes combined to set up Chris Wood, whose shot deflected inches over the top off Bailly.
The Clarets were happy to go toe-to-toe with United, but Martial wasted a chance to fire the visitors ahead when Nemanja Matic played him into space, only for the Frenchman to shoot hopelessly wide.
It might have been freezing but tempers were hotting up on the pitch.
Luke Shaw was lucky to avoid a red card after a crude challenge on Johann Gudmundsson, while Cavani was locked in a running battle with James Tarkowski and had to be told to calm down at least twice before half time.
Harry Maguire was also seething after having a goal harshly ruled out for climbing on Erik Pieters and made his feelings known to Kevin Friend, while Solskjaer was producing some industrial language from the sidelines.
Cavani's mood didn't improve when he fluffed a golden chance on 52 minutes, scuffing his shot from close range following a rapid break involving Pogba, who then showed him how it's done with a moment of magic to send United three points clear of the rest.

The Trump administration has moved to accelerate vaccinations of Americans against COVID-19, releasing the rest of the doses it had been keeping in reserve and recommending states immediately open inoculations to those age 65 and over.
Health officials at the state and federal level have scrambled in recent days to step up vaccination programs that had given shots to only 9.3 million Americans, as coronavirus infections remain at record highs in many US states 12 days into the new year.
Many US states had strict rules in place giving shots to healthcare workers and nursing home residents first, telling so-called "non-essential workers" they might have to wait months for their turn.
"We've already distributed more vaccine than we have healthcare workers and people in nursing homes," US Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar told ABC News on Tuesday. "We've got to get to more channels of administration."
Roughly 27.5 million doses have been distributed by the US government to states so far, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Azar said the administration, which had been keeping doses in reserve to make sure that all those who got a first inoculation receive their second shot on schedule, was now confident enough in the supply chain to release that stockpile.
Last week, a spokesman for President-elect Joe Biden said Biden, who takes office on January 20, would release more of the reserved doses.
The pace of vaccinations has risen to 700,000 per day nationwide and was expected hit one million per day within 10 days, officials said.
The US Food and Drug Administration has authorised the vaccine from Pfizer and partner BioNTech SE and a second vaccine from Moderna for emergency use.
As of Monday night, the United States has reported a total of 22.5 million coronavirus infections and 376,188 deaths during the pandemic. Nearly 130,000 Americans were hospitalised with COVID-19 at midnight on Monday.
A Reuters tally has shown that the number of COVID-19 patients requiring hospitalisation may have leveled off, at least temporarily, although public health officials warn that further spread may still be seen from holiday gatherings.
The latest surge has potentially been compounded by a more infectious variant of the virus first seen in the United Kingdom and now found in at least 10 US states - California, Florida, New York, Colorado, Georgia, Indiana, Connecticut, Minnesota, Pennsylvania and Texas.

BEIJING — Chinese automaker BYD is selling far more luxury electric sedans a month than the leading start-ups in the country, even though overall sales fell 11% last year.
BYD, backed by American billionaire Warren Buffett, disclosed late Tuesday that sales of battery-powered electric passenger cars fell 11% to 130,970 units last year. Overall sales, including that of commercial and oil-fueled vehicles, fell 7.46%.
However, sales improved in December, with that of battery-powered and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles surging more than 150% from the same month in 2019 to 27,594 units.
Sales of BYD's "Han" electric car have also increased every month since the July launch to surpass 10,000 units in November. December figures weren't available. That's according to a transcript of an investor call accessed through the Wind Information database.
In late September, BYD said it delivered 4,000 units of the new luxury electric sedan in August, and that orders had topped 40,000 at that time. The vehicle comes in both pure electric and plug-in hybrid versions.
At these sales levels, the "Han" model alone is selling just as well as electric vehicles from Chinese automaker Nio, and better than that of other start-ups Li Auto and Xpeng.
The best performer of the three, Nio, said deliveries more than doubled last year to 43,728 vehicles, with a monthly high of more than 7,000 units in December. Nio plans to reveal its first sedan on Saturday.
The news comes against the backdrop of increased investor interest in electric vehicles.
These select Chinese electric vehicle figures still pale in comparison with those of Elon Musk's automaker, which is ramping up production in China. Tesla said it delivered 499,550 vehicles globally last year, with a new quarterly record of 180,570 vehicles in the last three months of 2020.
China, the world's largest auto market, began to emerge from a prolonged slump in car sales this summer.
Sales of pure electric vehicles from January through November rose 4.4% from a year ago, versus a decline of 7.6% in overall passenger car sales during the same time, according to China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is relishing the ‘difficult’ challenge ahead of his side as they look to go six points clear of Liverpool at the top of the Premier League on Sunday
Manchester United are hungry for glory ahead of their clash against Liverpool.
That is the warning that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has sent Jurgen Klopp after his side saw off the challenge of Burnley to go three points clear at the top of the Premier League.
Paul Pogba’s strike has handed the Red Devils the chance to go six points clear of the reigning champions should they collect all three points at Anfield on Sunday.
Solskjaer said when asked by Sky Sports how it feels to be clear at the top “Brilliant position to be in.”
Before adding of their upcoming derby: “Of course we know we’re going to the champions, they’ve had an unbelievable three-and-a-half seasons.
“We know it’s going to be a difficult game for us but we’re ready for it.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better time to play them because we’re in good shape, good form, hungry, that’s the big thing, these boys are hungry.
“They want to get better and that’s the test again. A test of character and a test of quality.”
Pogba who has received plenty of praise for his performance at Turf Moor, has urged his team-mates to stay focused on the task at hand rather than their current league position.
He said: "We know that the game today was very hard, very difficult and obviously we wanted to win.
“We know it's not easy to play here. We got the three points and we're happy for that but there's still a long way and now we focus again until the end of the season."
Before adding of his own happiness: “It was a great performance from everyone, good focus.
"Always happy when I win - today we won and I'm happy we play well.
“Still a long way to go and we have big games to go so we have to focus on that."

Der US-Kongress will heute das Ergebnis der Präsidentschaftswahl zertifizieren. Eine heikle Aufgabe für Vizepräsident Pence. Der scheidende Präsident Trump hat zuvor einen Auftritt vor seinen Fans angekündigt, die in Washington demonstrieren wollen.
An diesem Mittwoch kommen beide Kammern des Kongresses in Washington zusammen, um die Ergebnisse der Präsidentschaftswahl zu zertifizieren. Die Sitzung wird von Vizepräsident Mike Pence geleitet, sie beginnt um 19 Uhr Mitteleuropäischer Zeit. Was traditionell eine pro-forma-Sitzung war, dürfte sich in diesem Jahr unter Trump und seinen haltlosen Behauptungen über den Wahlausgang zu einer politischen Veranstaltung entwickeln.
Trump behauptet fälschlicherweise, Vizepräsident Pence könne bei der Zertifizierung „etwas für ihn tun“. Faktisch wird Pence jedoch allenfalls als Zeremonienmeister agieren. Seine Aufgabe ist, die Briefumschläge mit den Ergebnissen des Wahlleutegremiums aus den 50 Bundesstaaten und der Hauptstadt Washington zu öffne, zu sichten und zu zählen. In dem Wahlleutegremium hat der gewählte Präsident Joe Biden 306 Stimmen, Trump 232 Stimmen. Die Bühne für die Inauguration am Kapitol mit Blick auf die National Mall ist längst aufgebaut. Am 20. Januar soll Biden hier vereidigt werden.
Am Dienstag soll es zu einem spannungsreichen Mittagessen zwischen Trump und Pence im Weißen Haus gekommen sein, berichtet die „New York Times“. Pence teilte Trump demnach mit, er glaube nicht, dass er die Macht habe, die Zertifizierung von Bidens Sieg zu blockieren. Trump hatte zuvor das Gegenteil behauptet. Der „Vizepräsident habe die Macht, betrügerisch gewählte Wahlmänner abzulehnen“, schrieb er auf Twitter.
Pence hat sich in der vierjährigen gemeinsamen Amtszeit mit Trump loyal bis ergeben zum Präsidenten verhalten. Während Trump Minister und Spitzenbeamte teilweise alle paar Monate auswechselte, hielt er an Pence fest. Beide hatten gemeinsam im November 2020 für ihre beiden Ämter kandidiert. Sollte sich die Beziehung zwischen den beiden Männern kurz vor ihrem Abschied von der Macht noch wandeln?
Elf republikanische Senatoren und über 100 Abgeordnete des Repräsentantenhauses wollen Einspruch gegen die Wahlergebnisse in einzelnen Bundesstaaten einlegen. Das dürfte zu stundenlangen separaten Sitzungen beider Kammern führen. Da die Demokraten und ein Teil der Republikaner Trumps haltlose Behauptungen zurückweisen, gibt es keine Gelegenheit, den Wählerwillen „umzudrehen“.
Die Republikaner, die am Mittwoch Einspruch einlegen wollen, weichen zumeist der Frage aus, ob sie mit einer weiteren Amtszeit Trumps ab dem 20. Januar rechnen. Sie wissen selbst, dass dies völlig unrealistisch ist. Darum geht es ihnen auch nicht. Hinter der Aktion der elf Republikaner steht die Taktik, sich bei der Trump-Basis beliebt zu machen, womöglich eine Basis für eine Präsidentschaftskandidatur 2024 zu schaffen.
Und Trump? Seit vielen Tagen ruft der seine Anhänger auf, nach Washington zu kommen. An diesem Mittwoch will der scheidende Präsident um 17 Uhr MEZ vor seinen Fans reden – nahe, aber außerhalb des Weißen Hauses. Bereits am Dienstag waren Hunderte Trump-Fans nach Washington angereist.
Die Gegend um das Weiße Haus ist weiträumig abgesperrt. Rechte und rechtsradikale Gruppen wie die „Proud Boys“ wollen demonstrieren. Bei einer Kundgebung am Dienstagabend trat Trumps Handelsbeauftragter Peter Navarro auf. Ein Redner sagte, wer als Kongressmitglied nicht Wahlergebnis ablehne, sei für „unsere Bewegung” erledigt. Die Trump-Anhänger waren einfach zu erkennen. Die wenigsten trugen eine Maske, während das Maskentragen in Washington üblich ist.

.css-14iz86j-BoldText{font-weight:bold;}The authorities in Uganda are investigating the cause of a large-scale death of fish on Lake Victoria - Africa's largest fresh water reservoir.
The fisheries ministry has warned the public not to eat the dead fish and to instead bury them.
Photos posted on social media by local residents show dozens of lifeless fish washed up ashore at Lake Victoria, as well as Lake Kyoga and River Nile.
Officials say the deaths may be caused by a drop in oxygen levels.
"Preliminary investigations have ruled out fish poisoning," Uganda's fisheries ministry said in a statement.
"It is suspected that the recent storms on the lakes caused mixing of the different waters thereby reducing the oxygen levels in the lake."
A full report by a team of experts that was earlier dispatched to the area is expected later on Monday.
"The most likely explanation is drop in oxygen levels" caused by recent flooding and water hyacinth weeds, ministry official Joyce Ikwaput Nyeko was quoted as saying by local media.
The ministry said the only affected species was the Nile perch, a staple in many Ugandan households.
The Nile perch - which can grow to weigh more than 100kg (220lb) - is believed to be sensitive to oxygen levels below two milligrams per litre of water, the BBC's Patience Atuhaire in Kampala reports.
"The fishing community and general public along the lake shores is... advised to pick the dead fish and bury it to reduce the stench," the ministry said.
But it also urged the public "to disregard the audio circulating on social media calling upon people to stop eating fish as the fish from the regular catches can easily be distinguished from the floating dead fish".
Lake Victoria is a vital resource shared by Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania.
In 2017, scientists warned that Lake Victoria was under threat of dying.
They blamed overfishing and pollution for severely damaged fish stocks.

Ex-Giant Brandon Holloway takes on new Goldfields basketball development role

Brandon Holloway knows intimately how passionate Kalgoorlie-Boulder is about basketball, having represented Goldfields Giants and Olympians for several seasons.
Now employed by Basketball WA as a regional development officer, Holloway is determined to foster the same passion in remote Goldfields communities.
Holloway returned to town late last year after an ill-fated move to South Australian side Southern Tigers, which was scuppered both by the corona-virus pandemic and a long-term knee injury.
Growing the game he loves has since become the 27-year-old’s priority.
“We’re trying to make basketball the No.1 sport in WA, so there’s definitely a broader focus on the whole Goldfields region, not just Kalgoorlie,” Holloway said.
“Places like Leonora, Sandstone, Kambalda — you name it.
“The entire region needs a bit more love basketball wise, so I’ll be getting out to places that are more or less untouched in terms of basketball development.”
Holloway’s central priority surrounds visiting schools — both local and remote — to run clinics and establish the building blocks for potential long-term programs.
Empowering teachers, coaches and parents to take the reins in his absence is of equal importance.
“I think there are more than 20 schools in the Goldfields region, including Kalgoorlie, so the focus is on getting out to those schools, running clinics and pushing those schools to get funding through Sporting Schools, where you can get basketball as part of your curriculum,” Holloway said.
“Obviously I can’t get to every school every week, either, so it’s also about identifying coaches in the region, so we can have people all over the region running various programs.
“Programs like Aussie Hoops, for instance, would be good to introduce throughout the region, because at the moment, it’s only in Kalgoorlie.
Aiding Basketball WA’s cause, Holloway had already established a reliable network of contacts prior to applying for the newly established position.
In turn, Holloway hopes to hit the ground running sooner than later.
“I think having those contacts will help, especially initially,” he said. “There’s obviously a lot of people to consult with and to discuss plans with, but I’ve got good relationships with a lot of key people.
“It’s good that I’m not someone new coming in and trying to figure it all out.
“I kind of know who to speak to and there’s already been people who are willing to help out.”

History of the fight for fair country WA airfares as Labor makes election commitment for regional price cap

Regional residents could soon see their flights to Perth capped at $199 each way with the McGowan Government committed to a $19.8 million airfare subsidy program, if re-elected in March.
The WA Labor Party yesterday announced its plan to combat the long-standing issue of regional airfares by filling the price gap for residents rather than forcing industry regulation.
The Regional Airfares Zone Cap would have flights within 1000km of Perth capped at $199 each-way and flight for residents in regional communities further afield capped at $299 each way.
That cap would bring the maximum cost of a return Qantas flight from Kalgoorlie to Perth down $400, half the current cap introduced under the residents fare program in 2017, and the maximum Virgin return fare down $200.
THE FIGHT FOR FAIR FARES
Travellers to and from Esperance with Rex — a government-regulated route — would save up to $360 on a return fare.
Premier Mark McGowan said the one-year trial subsidy would aim to “bring more fairness to the system” by giving country residents better access to Perth facilities and their families as well as make living in the regions more appealing.
“People from regional WA rely on flights to attend medical appointments, take business trips and visit friends and family, and I am focused on doing everything we can to ease the burden on regional residents,” he said.
“The Regional Zone Airfares Cap will help drive economic development and job creation in regional areas by better connecting our communities, making it easier and more attractive for people to live and work in the country.”
City Kalgoorlie-Boulder Mayor John Bowler said he would support any political party which offered to combat the “exorbitant” regional airfares.
“It’s one of the barbecue stoppers that sometimes people outside the Goldfields can’t believe the prices the locals have to pay for airfares,” he said.
THE FIGHT FOR FAIR FARES
“I think if you sometimes plan well ahead you can get prices down a reasonable amount but when you’ve got to go quickly in an emergency — be it medical or personal — the cost can be quite amazing.”
WA Labor candidate for Kalgoorlie Ali Kent confirmed the Regional Airfares Zone Cap for residents would have no restrictions meaning even last-minute flights would be covered.
“To just know that you’re never going to be able to pay more than $199 each-way is going to mean such a massive bonus for individuals and families,” she said.
Ms Kent couldn’t confirm how soon after the election the caps would be in place, but said she hoped the scheme would be rolled out “as soon as possible” if WA Labor was re-elected to office in March.

SICK and injured patients are being forced to wait in agony for more than 10 hours because of Covid delays to ambulance services. Tracy Nicholls, the chief executive of the College of Paramedics, said yesterday they have no choice but to wait because of the "unprecedented pressure" the pandemic has put on health services.

SICK and injured patients are being forced to wait in agony for more than 10 hours because of Covid delays to ambulance services. Tracy Nicholls, the chief executive of the College of Paramedics, said yesterday they have no choice but to wait because of the "unprecedented pressure" the pandemic has put on health services.
She said some ambulances have been forced to queue for up to 10 hours to hand their patients over to hospitals in regions facing the greatest pressure. But other patients with "category three" ailments like abdominal pains or falls might not get an ambulance at all.
She told Sky News's Sophy Ridge on Sunday: "We are seeing the ambulance handover delays at a scale we haven't seen before.
"Our members have reported to us they can wait as little as half an hour. We've had some members wait five, six, seven, eight and even nine hours.
"That doesn't take into account the huge number of patients that are waiting for an ambulance that can't get to them.
She added: "We are very used to seeing ambulance services take some strain over the winter months due to the normal pressures we would see any particular year.
"But this year particularly has seen incredible pressure because of the clinical presentation of the patients our members are seeing. They are sicker."
Her warning comes two days after confidential figures revealed that ambulance waiting times at hospitals in the southeast had risen by more than a third in a year.
They revealed that, on average, an ambulance crew was forced to wait 36 percent longer last month than they were in December 2019.
South East Coast Ambulance brigade lost 7,803 hours queuing outside hospitals. compared to 5,732 hours in 2019.
Kent saw the greatest rise, with waiting times doubling at one hospital, Medway Maritime.
Service figures also revealed that at one point last Monday, more than 700 patients in London were left waiting because no ambulance was available.
Adrian Boyle, the vice president of the Royal College of Emergency Medicine, called the figures "off the scale".
He added: "It is not because more ambulances are being called, it's because the amount of time they're spending outside a hospital has increased.
"People may feel they have a winter crisis every year but this is a different order of magnitude.
"This is the worst winter crisis I've been through in my 25 years of practising as a doctor."
The number of coronavirus patients in hospital in England stood at a record 29,346 at 8am on Friday – up 30 percent from the previous week.
NHS England says 3,697 people were admitted to hospital on Tuesday, passing the previous record of 3,587 the day before and dwarfing the first wave high of 3,099.
"We are seeing the ambulance handover delays at a scale we haven't seen before."
Miss Nicholls warned that there is no delay in ambulance response times for category one "life-threatening" complaints or category two – such as chest pains.
But she said the problems had occurred with category three or four, adding: "Category three calls would be things like abdominal pains or falls. And some of those patients in those high-pressure areas have waited up to 10 hours. We are seeing the ambulance handover delays at a scale we haven't seen before."
Dr Simon Walsh, the deputy chairman of the British Medical Association's consultants committee, warned the situation is likely to get worse before it gets better.
The London-based emergency care doctor said the evidence from the previous wave indicates that it is likely to worsen over the next two to three weeks.
He told BBC Breakfast on Saturday: "I'm afraid all of us who are working on the front line believe, and this is based on the evidence I'm afraid, that it is going to get worse before it gets better."
Last week, David Loughton, the chief executive of the Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust warned: "I have seen the worst ambulance turnaround times I've ever seen in the last couple of weeks.
"This is because we're not doing what we normally do."

Paul Pogba's second-half goal ensured Manchester United go into Sunday's Premier League match against Liverpool with a win
Manchester United overtook Liverpool at the top of the Premier League with an 1-0 win over Burnley.
United’s victory sets up a mouth-watering trip to the Reds on Sunday as the top flight title race hots up.
The Red Devils’ win on Tuesday was not without controversy, with Harry Maguire having a goal disallowed and Luke Shaw arguably lucky to stay on the pitch.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side are now three points clear of Jurgen Klopp’s men, with the winner at Anfield set to take over as the Premier League’s pacesetters.
If United are to take the three points and secure their position at the top, the following three stars will be key.
Although he was arguably lucky to stay on the pitch after a 27 th -minute tackle on Johann Berg Gudmansson, Shaw carried much of United’s attacking threat.
Roaming forward from left-back, with Burnley barely threatening the United goal, the England defender sent several good crosses into the box.
He was certainly much more involved than Aarron Wan-Bissaka on the opposite flank, getting forward with abandon.
Shaw frequently found space to break into and also coped well with any balls in the air when defending.
The treat of Trent Alexander-Arnold means Shaw will be called on much more defensively on Sunday, although the Liverpool player’s desire to attack could leave space in behind for the United man.
The attacking trio of Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino will certainly trouble United’s backline much more than Chris Wood and Ashley Barnes did for Burnley.
Key to United keeping that Liverpool attack at bay will be the pairing at the heart of their defence, with Bailly putting in several impressive performances to stake his claim at the position.
The Frenchman coped well with Burnley’s aerial attack, while Gary Neville highlighting Bailly’s importance to United in his commentary for Sky Sports.
“He complements Harry Maguire very well, if Maguire gets caught up the pitch, Bailly has that recovery speed to cover,” Neville said.
That speed will be put to the test by Salah and Mane, but there are encouraging signs that Bailly’s partnership with Maguire will last.
The matchwinner at Burnley took a while to grow into the game, but Pogba proved to be key in the second half.
The Frenchman ran proceedings in the second-half, with his volley from the edge of the area sending United top of the Premier League.
Gary Neville was certainly pleased with Pogba’s display, labelling Pogba the “best player on the pitch in the second half” in commentary.
United will need Pogba to repeat his second-half showing against Liverpool, with the midfield battle set to be key at Anfield.

Stuttgart (dpa/lsw) - Der Einfluss von Aufsichtsratsvorsitzenden bei Abstimmungen sollte nach Ansicht von IG-Metall-Landeschef Roman Zitzelsberger stärker begrenzt werden. «Es würde der Mitbestimmung guttun, wenn die Doppelstimme generell fiele», sagte Zitzelsberger der Deutschen Presse-Agentur. «Sie muss aber auf jeden Fall infrage gestellt werden, wenn es um Standortschließungen geht.»
Die Doppelstimme kommt zum Tragen, wenn es bei Abstimmungen in einem paritätisch besetzten Aufsichtsrat ein Patt gibt. Das sorgt dafür, dass die Arbeitgeberseite die Arbeitnehmervertreter im Zweifel immer überstimmen kann. Wenn man tatsächlich Mitbestimmung auf Augenhöhe wolle, sei das ein Widerspruch, sagte Zitzelsberger.
«Wenn man gute Argumente hat, dann findet man dafür auch Lösungen», betonte er. «Wenn man die nicht hat, muss man sich eben damit begnügen, dass eine solche Entscheidung in einem Aufsichtsrat auch mal nicht zustande kommt.» Eine Pattsituation sei ja nicht gleich das Ende, sagte der IG-Metall-Bezirksleiter und verwies auf das Beispiel Tarifverhandlungen. Auch da werde hart und oft bis zur Grenze der Belastbarkeit um einen Kompromiss gerungen, ohne dass eine der beiden Seiten eine zweite Stimme habe.
«Wenn das bei Tarifverhandlungen klappt, wo es zum Teil um zweistellige Milliardenbeträge geht, warum soll es dann auf Ebene der Mitbestimmung in den Betrieben nicht auch funktionieren?», sagte Zitzelsberger. Es bereite ihm insgesamt Sorge, dass - gerade wenn es um Schließung oder Verlagerung von Standorten gehe - die Arbeitnehmer in etlichen Unternehmen als Gesprächspartner zwar gehört, aber im Ergebnis häufig ignoriert würden.

Chief medic calms concerns about vaccine

Australia's chief medical officer has sought to ease concerns about the effectiveness of a leading coronavirus vaccine.
Some doctors are concerned that the vaccine developed by Oxford University and AstraZeneca may not be enough to achieve herd immunity.
The drug has an efficacy rate of between 62 and 90 per cent in clinical trials, which is well below both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.
The federal government has ordered 54 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine and plans to give it to most Australians, pending approval by the Therapeutic Goods Administration.
Some medical professionals want the planned rollout suspended and are urging the government to pivot to other options.
But Chief Medical Officer Paul Kelly is standing by the strategy, which has been in planning for many months.
"The great advantage of the AstraZeneca vaccine is it is being made here in Australia. It will be available as soon as the TGA gives its tick, which we expect that it will in February," Professor Kelly told the ABC.
"We're not the only country in the world that has AstraZeneca ordered. AstraZeneca is one of the mainstays of the global response and remains so.
"The AstraZeneca vaccine is effective, it is safe and it's a high quality vaccine, but those are the things that the TGA will be looking at with their full approval coming very soon."
Australia has supply agreements in place for the AstraZeneca, Pfizer and Novavax vaccines.
The federal government has not struck a deal for Johnson and Johnson or Moderna, whose drug is easier to distribute than the Pfizer vaccine.
Labor health spokesman Chris Bowen is urging the government to secure more deals.
He is concerned about the potential risks if AstraZeneca fails to pass health and safety checks.
"That's why the federal government should have been months ago spreading that risk more thinly with more deals," Mr Bowen told ABC radio on Wednesday.

US military leaders condemn Capitol riot

The US military's Joint Chiefs of Staff, the uniformed leaders of the military branches, have put out a rare message to service members saying the violent riots last week were an assault on America's constitutional process and against the law.
The joint message broke nearly a week of silence by the military leaders after the assault on the Capitol by supporters of President Donald Trump sent lawmakers into hiding and left five people dead.
While a number of Trump's cabinet members including acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller condemned the storming, the top US general, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley, was silent until now.
"The violent riot in Washington, DC on January 6, 2021 was a direct assault on the US Congress, the Capitol building, and our Constitutional process," the seven generals and one admiral said in an internal memo to troops, adding the military remained committed to protecting and defending the Constitution.
"The rights of freedom of speech and assembly do not give anyone the right to resort to violence, sedition and insurrection," the memo, seen by Reuters, said.
The military leaders said President-elect Joe Biden would be inaugurated on January 20 and become their commander in chief.
"Any act to disrupt the constitutional process is not only against our traditions, values, and oath; it is against the law."
US officials said Milley had not commented on last week's events because he wanted to stay out of politics.
The silence was in sharp contrast with June, when Milley made a controversial walk to a church with Trump after law enforcement officers backed by National Guard troops used tear-inducing chemicals and rubber bullets to clear the area of peaceful protesters
Some service members have privately expressed concern that senior leaders did not provide direction in the aftermath of the attack on American democracy on Wednesday.
There has also been a renewed focus on extremism within the US military after the Capitol storming, with a large proportion of service members being white and male.
The army told Reuters on Tuesday that it was working with the FBI to see if any attackers were current service members and with the Secret Service to see if any of the nearly 10,000 National Guard troops securing Biden's inauguration would need additional screening.

Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has insisted continuing to postpone matches in the Premier League will lead to disaster for hopes of finishing the season as Covid-19 continues to cause problems
Jose Mourinho has warned the Premier League it cannot afford to keep postponing matches if it wants to finish the season.
Tottenham face Fulham tonight in a rearranged Premier League clash which was first postponed on December 30 - the day it was originally due to be played.
But even though the two clubs were only told on Monday this fixture was replacing Tottenham’s postponed clash with Aston Villa, for Mourinho it was the right decision.
Spurs, who are still competing in four competitions this season, have virtually no room in an already packed calendar to reschedule any more games.
But with clubs across the country struggling with a surge in Coronavirus cases, fears are growing that the Premier League may not be able to complete all its fixtures.
Newcastle manager Steve Bruce recently called it “morally wrong” to carry on, while West Brom’s Sam Allardyce called for a circuit-break.
But Mourinho said: “Do you want to finish the season or no? Do you want to be the only country in Europe without football or no?
“Do we want the end of the season with champions, a Cup winner, with relegation, with Europe, or we don’t? That’s the main question.
“For the teams in Europa League it is impossible to have more matches postponed.
“We need to play. If it's not Fulham then against somebody else. But we need to play a match. We cannot have any more matches postponed.
“The biggest impact is to have matches postponed. That is the biggest impact. The changing of the order of the matches, the impact is minimal I would say.
“In the end you have to play 19 matches at home and 19 away, and two matches against every team.
“So if it's to help the Premier League to go on and to handle properly, it's a solution we all have to accept as a positive solution.”
Mourinho also called for better leadership from league bosses - and less selfishness from clubs trying to use local outbreaks to their advantage.
He said: “If we all are selfish, or if you all want the perfect situation for ourselves, it is going to be difficult for the Premier League to make it amazing for everyone.
“Since pre-season I was told that if you have 14 players available, you play. I thought: ‘We are are going to end the season and we are not going to have problems.’
“That rule, if we can call it a rule, for some reason, changed. We had some matches postponed.
“Since that moment, the situation became a little bit more difficult. Then, we needed leadership. We needed decisions to be made.
“Come on, let’s play football. Let’s behave the best we can. Let’s protect our industry. Let’s protect our image and let’s play football.”

Biz bunu gösterdik" dedi.Sanayinin kalbi Kocaeli'nde pandemi sürecinde de çarklar durmadı. Kocaeli Sanayi Odası Başkanı Ayhan Zeytinoğlu ihracatta rekor kırdıklarını belirterek, "Ekim ayında bir ihracat rekoru kırmıştık. 17.3 milyarlık bir ihracat yapmıştık. Kasım ve aralık aylarında da rekor kırabileceğine değinmiştim ama maalesef kasım ayında o rekoru kıramadık pandeminin etkisiyle. Açıklanan son ihracat rakamlarında da 17.8 milyarlık bir ihracat var.

Biz bunu gösterdik" dedi.'AŞI OCAKTA UYGULANMASAYA BAŞLANIRSA TÜRKİYE ÖNCÜ OLABİLİR'Aşının önemine değinen Zeytinoğlu, şöyle konuştu:"Biz aşı olabilirsek tabii Sağlık Bakanlığı temsilcilerine işçilerin çok kritik bir görev yaptığını ve aşılanma konusunda ön almamız gerektiğini izah ettik. Hatta biz işverenler olarak ücretlerini dahi ödemek istiyoruz dedik. Ancak orada şöyle bir sorunla karşılaştık. Siyasi olarak baktığınız zamanda da `Parayı verdiler erkenden aşı oldular´ durumuna da düşmek istemeyiz. Bakanlık temsilcileri de böyle bir durum yaratılmasını istemiyor. Öğrendiğimiz kadarıyla Türkiye´de 6 milyon civarında 65 yaş ve üzerinde insanımız var onun dışında da 16 milyon kişide de kronik hastalık var.

Hawthorn have confirmed the AFL Integrity Unit is involved in the investigation into allegations of inappropriate sexual conduct on social media by key forward Jonathon Patton.
Patton, 27, has been absent from the Hawks' pre-season training this week after being stood down from all duties by the club.
The decision came after multiple women made public allegations of lewd behaviour by the 2011 No.1 draft pick.
Hawthorn CEO Justin Reeves addressed the matter in a letter to members posted on the club's website, in which he confirmed the AFL's direct involvement in the investigation.
"This is a difficult time for all involved and it is important our club ensures that Jonathon receives the support he requires during this period," Reeves said.
"We take this matter very seriously and our Integrity Committee is working in conjunction with the AFL's Integrity Unit to undertake the investigation into these complaints within the framework of the AFL's Respect and Responsibility Policy.
"We anticipate this process will take some time and we will provide a further update when more information is available."
The probe into Patton's behaviour was launched last weekend in response to one woman's allegations.
More women have since come forward with similar claims.
"The complaints made are of behaviour that does not reflect the values of our club," Reeves said.
"We are a club that is proud of our family values and we strive to exemplify them across every element of our club.
"Hawthorn actively promotes and advocates for both respect and equality for all and we demand this standard from all involved with the club."

Manchester City’s stars were working too hard at the start of the 2020/21 season and it backfired for Pep Guardiola and his team, but they are back on track in the title race now
Pep Guardiola has banned his Manchester City stars from running too much.
The Spaniard reckons his players were working too hard at the start of the season when results went against them.
But a return to the tiki-taka style that helped City win back-to-back Premier League titles has seen Guardiola's men reel off six straight wins to get their campaign back on track.
Guardiola, whose side host Brighton tomorrow night, said: "The only difference now is that we run less.
"We were running too much, with football you have to walk - or run much less. Without the ball you have to run, but with the ball you stay more in position and let the ball run, not you. That's improved in these games.
"From day one we lost it a bit this season. It was my fault - the message was not clear, but we came back with the principles, especially because the players needed time to get the best condition after no pre season.
"After good results and performances the players visualise they can do it again, in the way we did it in the past."
City can climb into the top four with a win over the Seagulls and then leapfrog Liverpool into second if they win their other game in hand.
But Guardiola, who will be without Nathan Ake, Aymeric Laporte and Sergio Aguero, admits he is happy to fly under the radar and allow Jurgen Klopp's men and current leaders Manchester United to get all the attention.
He added: "We didn't play well in the beginning to deserve to be up there, so in the end the people who analyse the games say we are not (title) candidates and others are.
"The public opinion said we do not deserve to be contenders. We tried to say to the players 'be calm', because this is a strange situation and the most intelligent thing I can say is Brighton, Brighton, Brighton.
"We want to stay in the competitions and hopefully we can arrive at the last few games and try to fight for the title."

COVID-19 infections are yet to slow in light of the new lockdown, with tens of thousands of cases per day and new death records set following renewed restrictions this month. Is there a Covid press briefing tonight?
The Government designed lockdown three to curtail the latest devastating wave of Covid-19 infections, as the UK's death rate soared to a total of more than 80,000 last week. The latest round of measures imposed in England have done little to make a dent in the infections, however, with ministers allegedly looking to clamp down once again. Should they do so, the Government will announce any impending policy via a daily briefing.
Covid press briefings have become a mainstay of the pandemic whether nationally or internationally, with some nations doing them more than others.
The British Government initially held one every day, but now does so sparingly for pressing announcements.
One of these will take place today, helmed by health secretary Matt Hancock.

The Secretary of State will take to the podium at Number 10 from 5pm in the latest press conference.
He will promote the Government's vaccine delivery plan to be published today.
The Government continues to administer Covid vaccines, which now include both the Pfizer and AstraZeneca jabs.
But ministers have been reluctant to disclose how many people have received a vaccination per day, with overall estimations more than two million people have now had a dose.
Mr Hancock will allegedly provide more data relating to this today, according to ITV's Robert Peston.
Taking to Twitter, he said while the Government will provide some more in-depth numbers, how useful they will be remains unclear.
He said: "We are supposedly getting a lot more data on the numbers of us being vaccinated today.
"What's less clear is whether we will be getting data that is useful."
DON'T MISSCovid vaccine update: How long will immunity last for? What we know - EXPLAINERLockdown POLL: Should Boris Johnson order stricter coronavirus rules? - POLLCovid vaccine update: Nearest vaccination centre to you - MAP
People may also expect some questions about future lockdown rules, given recent Government dissatisfaction with people "flexing" them.
Pictures appeared to show people outdoors and socialising this weekend, and ministers have voiced their disapproval.
Mr Hancock said the rules were there not "as boundaries to be pushed" but as a "limit to what people should be doing".
Nadhim Zahawi, the vaccines minister, also pleaded with the public, asking them to "think that every social interaction you could have could be an instant of transmission."
Boris Johnson allegedly held a meeting with the Cabinet on Sunday evening to discuss more extensive restrictions, but people have questioned how much of the responsibility falls to the public, as Government officials have pushed the limit themselves.
Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner highlighted the health minister's own words on Dominic Cummings' breach of the lockdown in March when he travelled from London to Durham with Covid symptoms.
He hailed Mr Cummings' decision - which people have blamed for greater public disobedience of the rules - as "entirely right".
Tory Minister Jacob Rees-Mogg also allegedly broke tier rules for Christmas to attend church, likely causing growing discontent and damaging Covid lockdown obedience.

Atletico Madrid have accounted for Sevilla 2-0 to increase their advantage at the top of La Liga to four points.
Atleti, who have two games in hand over their top-four challengers, moved clear of cross-town rivals Real Madrid as Diego Simeone's team challenges for a first league title since 2014.
Correa gave the hosts the lead in the 17th minute after collecting a pass from Kieran Trippier in the box and controlling the ball with his right foot before swivelling and slotting a low shot into the net with his left.
Niguez came off the bench at the Wanda Metropolitano to add the second in the 76th.
Marcos Llorente made a run down the right flank before sending in a low cross to Niguez, who had plenty of time to control the ball before scoring with a low shot from the edge of the area.
It was a fifth-straight league win for Atletico, who bounced back from being eliminated in the Copa del Rey by third-tier club Cornella last week.
Granada beat Osasuna 2-0 to leave the strugglers second bottom.
Colombian striker Luis Suarez opened the scoring on 22 minutes, after Osasuna failed to clear a corner, while Darwin Machis provoked the second just before halftime when his corner was turned in by goalkeeper Sergio Herrera.
The win consolidated Granada's grip on seventh place.

|
Er war Nivea-Erfinder, Sozialpolitiker und Kunstmäzen. Nun würdigt ein neues Sachbuch Leben und Wirken des Hamburger Beiersdorf-Unternehmers Oscar Troplowitz und seiner Frau Gertrud.
„Mein optimistischer Nachbar meint, wir würden am Sonntag hier aufgeknüpft werden! Falls nicht, werde ich mich freuen, Sie in Hamburg wiederzusehen, so am 18ten denke ich zu kommen“, schrieb Gertrud Troplowitz im revolutionären November 1919 von ihrem Landgut Westensee in Schleswig-Holstein an den ihr freundschaftlich verbundenen Carl Melchior. Dieser beriet als Teilhaber der Warburg Bank die Witwe von Oscar Troplowitz, seit sie als Eigentümerin die Geschicke des Unternehmens P. Beiersdorf & Co leitete.
Und das war durchaus eine Herausforderung. Gertruds Mann hatte in knapp 30 Jahren aus einer kleinen Pflaster-Fabrik in Altona, die er Paul Carl Beiersdorf für 70.000 Mark abgekauft hatte, einen Weltkonzern gemacht. Von ihm entwickelte Marken wie Nivea, Labello und Leukoplast sorgten später für Millionenumsätze und entsprechende Gewinne. Oscar Troplowitz starb im April 1918 im Alter von 55 Jahren überraschend an einem Herzinfarkt. Die Firma Beiersdorf aber überlebte die nächsten 100 Jahre – und ist heute das einzige Hamburger Unternehmen im Deutschen Aktienindex (Dax).
Ein Krimi im Übergang von Wilhelminischer in Weimarische Zeit
Und obwohl seine Markennamen in der Alltagssprache als Synonyme für die Produkte Hautcreme, Lippenpflege, Wundpflaster und Klebeband stehen, kennt selbst in Hamburg kaum jemand die Geschichte ihres Erfinders Oscar Troplowitz und die seiner Frau Gertrud. Der Versuch der Nationalsozialisten, jüdische Biografien aus der deutschen Geschichte zu entfernen, wirkt bis heute nach. Dem Mangel hilft nun mit Blick auf das Unternehmerpaar das Sachbuch „Troplowitz“ des Historikers Henning Albrecht gründlich ab.
Nach dem frühen Tod des Firmenchefs übernahm Gertruds Bruder Otto Hanns Mankiewicz die Leitung von Beiersdorf. Doch ein halbes Jahr später erlag auch der erst 47-jährige Jurist einem Herzleiden. Seine Schwester teilte sich als neue Eigentümerin die Leitung der Fabrik in Eimsbüttel mit einem Gremium aus Prokuristen. Mit deren Einverständnis stellte sie die Weichen für die Zukunft, indem sie die Warburg Bank ins Boot holte. Die Unternehmenshochzeit war nicht zwingend im Interesse späterer Erben, aber durchaus im Sinne des Nivea-Erfinders. Das sollte sich schon 1920 erweisen, denn nur knapp zwei Jahre nach ihrem Bruder starb auch die 51-jährige Gertrud.
Die von Albrecht bis ins kleinste Detail recherchierte Geschichte der Familien Troplowitz und Mankiewicz liest sich wie ein Krimi im Übergang von Wilhelminischer in Weimarische Zeit. Das liegt nicht zuletzt an der häufig dünnen Quellenlage. Viele Dokumente gingen in den Weltkriegen verloren. So ist auch der Autor mitunter auf plausible Vermutungen angewiesen. Klar ist: Das Ehepaar Troplowitz, das gern im Automobil Reisen durch Europa und per Dampfer in die USA unternahm, war nicht nur finanziell erfolgreich.
Oscar und Gertrud stammten aus großbürgerlichen jüdischen Familien in Schlesien, konvertierten in Hamburg zum Christentum und setzten das in ihrer Heimat gepflegte Mäzenatentum als Hamburger Bürger fort. Hier fügte es sich gut in die Tradition der Förderung von Kunst und Kultur durch wohlhabende Kaufleute ein.
So gaben Oscar und Gertrud Troplowitz nicht nur Geld für die wissenschaftliche Stiftung der Stadt, die sich der Universitätsgründung verschrieben hatte und in deren Auftrag der Biograf Albrecht jetzt tätig wurde. Troplowitz war zudem ein fortschrittlich sozialer Unternehmer. So reduzierte er bis 1912 die wöchentliche Arbeitszeit in seiner Fabrik schrittweise von 60 auf 48 Wochenstunden und führte 1902 als einer der ersten Firmenchefs in Hamburg bezahlten Urlaub ein, gleich ganze drei Tage. Seine größte Fürsorgeleistung war die Gründung einer betriebseigenen Altersversorgung.
Über die Unternehmensleitung hinaus engagierte sich der gebildete, zum Dr. phil promovierte Pharmazeut wohltätig in Vereinen und als Mitglied der Bürgerschaft sowie zweier Deputationen in der Politik. Auch hier wirkt der konservative Troplowitz fortschrittlich. So setzte er sich in der Baudeputation massiv für die Berufung Fritz Schumachers zum Baudirektor ein. Dieser sollte sein Amt von 1909 bis zur Machtergreifung der Nationalsozialisten 1933 ausüben. Bis heute prägen seine Backsteinbauten ganze Stadtteile.
Künstlern wohlgesinnt und wie sein Schwager mit einigen befreundet, erwarb Troplowitz eine Gemäldesammlung, die nach dem Tod der Eheleute als Geschenk an die Hamburger Kunsthalle ging. Dort schloss sie zur Freude von Direktor Gustav Pauli die impressionistische Lücke, bis heute sind Werke von Renoir, Liebermann und Sisley Teil der Sammlung. Einzig die „Absinthtrinkerin“ von Pablo Picasso, von den Nazis als entartete Kunst in die Schweiz verkauft, hängt heute in Bern. Die Geschichte des Gemäldes ist einer der Krimis, die das reich illustrierte Buch anreißt. Troplowitz-Porträts von Fritz Nöltken, der Oscar malte und Rudolf Schulte, der Gertrud für die Ewigkeit festhielt, sind heute gleichfalls in der Kunsthalle zu sehen.

Socceroos midfielder Jackson Irvine has officially ended his club football exile, joining Hibernian FC for the remainder of the Scottish Premiership season.
Irvine had been without a club since he was released in June last year by English lower-tier outfit Hull City before the resumption of the coronavirus-interrupted 2019-20 season.
The 27-year-old is no stranger to Scottish football, having come through the youth ranks at giants Celtic before spells at Kilmarnock and Ross County.
"I'm pleased to have everything sorted because as soon as I heard of Hibs' interest, I was keen to make it happen," Irvine said.
"No one has to tell me what a big club this is. I saw it for myself when I was with Celtic and Ross County.
"I had a great chat with the gaffer, who outlined that this is a club that wants to be competing for silverware and qualifying for Europe.
"Why wouldn't you want to be part of that?
"I've missed playing so I'm hoping to be involved as soon as possible.
"I'll work as hard as I can in training and hopefully give the staff something to think about."
Irvine was part of the Ross County team that defeated Hibs to win the 2016 Scottish League Cup and now joins a collective of current and former Socceroos to be on the Easter Road club's books.
Winger Martin Boyle is at the Edinburgh-based club, who are sitting fourth in the Scottish top-flight while Jamie Maclaren and Mark Milligan are among Hibs' past players.
"We're delighted to be able to add a player of Jackson's calibre to the squad and I think he'll complement the other players that we have," head coach Jack Ross said.
"Jackson has played at a high level as an international. He can go box-to-box, he offers a goal threat and he's hungry to play.
"He joins us at an exciting time with some big games coming up."

Ronnie O’Sullivan has revealed his love for ‘logical’ Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp as he looks to channel the German boss to achieve victory at The Masters later this month
Ronnie O’Sullivan has praised the logical nature of Jurgen Klopp after the German boss brought Champions League and Premier League glory back to Liverpool.
The former Borussia Dortmund boss has himself a huge fan in six-time and reigning snooker world champion O’Sullivan, who is looking to taste victory at The Masters this month.
The Rocket believes that Klopp has ‘made’ Liverpool since moving to England after winning back-to-back Bundesliga titles with Dortmund, despite being a Sheffield Wednesday fan.
"I love Kloppy,” said the 45-year-old on Tuesday.
“You can’t help but love him – it’s great what he’s done at Liverpool.
“He’s made them – not just Liverpool but Borussia Dortmund.
“He’s got a great style and the teams he produces are fantastic teams. You can’t help but be a fan of the way he goes about his business.
“I think when you hear him talk, he’d make a good CEO of a company because he does his research, knows his players and he’s very on top of stuff.
“He looks at the overall character of the player, whether they’re going to fit into his squad, the culture of it, so he’s very aware of the dynamics, and stuff like that.
“I think coming from a German background they’re very, very good like that.
“They’re not so impulsive and they’re quite logical about stuff.
“They think of the bigger picture, which he’s obviously very good at.
“I love Liverpool and have got a real soft spot for the place.”
O'Sullivan will take on Ding Junhui in the first round of the Masters on Wednesday, and he is keen to win his first tournament since the 2020 World Championship.
He said: “I’ve had a couple of finals which I’m happy with, a semi-final, but I haven’t won a trophy.”

SUPERMARKET bosses will be ordered to enforce social distancing and other safety measures amid fears stores have eased up since the first lockdown. It comes as police take a much tougher line on those flouting rules and town halls crackdown on firms that are not Covid safe.
|
SUPERMARKET bosses will be ordered to enforce social distancing and other safety measures amid fears stores have eased up since the first lockdown. It comes as police take a much tougher line on those flouting rules and town halls crackdown on firms that are not Covid safe.
The Government resisted even tighter curbs but pledged to come down hard on rule breakers. Ministers are understood to be looking at supermarket safety as last year's one-way systems, shopper limits and other restrictions appear to have been forgotten.
Talks with bosses are expected this week after yesterday's warning by Health Secretary Matt Hancock that every rule breach risks lives.
Mr Hancock defended police from claims of heavy handedness after a series of controversial interventions, including targeting women walking in a beauty spot.
Urging people to stay at home, he said: "I'm absolutely going to back the police because the challenge here is that every flex can be fatal.
"You might look at the rules and think, 'Well it doesn't matter too much if I just do this or do that'. But these rules are not there as boundaries to be pushed, they are the limit to what people should be doing. The police are right to take very seriously the rules we have brought in.
"We haven't brought them in because we wanted to, we've brought them in because we had to."
Mr Hancock urged everyone to help combat the virus, saying: "The most important thing is that people stay at home and follow the rules that we have got.
"People need to not just follow the letter of the rules but follow the spirit as well and play their part."
Home Secretary Priti Patel said there was "a need for strong enforcement where people are clearly breaking these rules".
She insisted: "Our police officers are working tirelessly to keep us safe. Not only are they continuing to take criminals off our streets, they are also playing a crucial role in controlling the spread of the virus."
The Home Secretary pointed out that the majority of people had been obeying lockdown rules.
But she said: "The tragic number of new cases and deaths this week shows there is still a need for strong enforcement where people are clearly breaking these rules to ensure we safeguard our country's recovery from this deadly virus.
"Enforcing these rules saves lives. It is as simple as that. Officers will continue to engage with the public across the country and will not hesitate to take action when necessary."
Meanwhile Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer said that current lockdown rules may not be tough enough and suggested nurseries should be shut down.
The National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) guidance published on January 6 advises officers should still offer people "encouragement" to follow the regulations and explain any changes.
But it said: "However, if the individual or group does not respond appropriately, then enforcement can follow without repeated attempts to encourage people to comply with the law.
"We police by consent. The initial police response should be to encourage voluntary compliance."
The council said its four-step "engage, explain, encourage and only enforce as a last resort" principles would still apply.
An NPCC spokesman said: "We've been guiding officers since October to move more quickly to issuing a fine where people are breaching regulations and not listening to encouragement.
"This continues in this dangerous stage of the pandemic.
"There is no specific rule on the number of warnings officers should give.
"Officers continue to use their judgment."

Jose Mourinho has told Fulham to stop whingeing about being forced to play Tottenham at short notice.
And the Spurs boss even called on the Cottagers to APOLOGISE if they end up fielding their strongest team in tonight’s rearranged fixture.
Fulham boss Scott Parker described Monday’s decision by the Premier League to play the game as “scandalous” yesterday.
But Mourinho said: “If they come with half the team, I will be the first one to apologise to them. And I will be the first one to say we played this game with an advantage.
“If they come with their best, I think they should apologise. I think we should wait. We should see their team, their bench, the players not involved.
“And after that we can all feel sorry for them. Or we can all think that they shouldn’t speak. My feeling is they will play with everybody.
“Maybe one player out. Maximum two. It’s just a feeling I have. When we see the best Fulham, then you realise lots of things don’t make sense.”
Mourinho wasn't happy when tonight's game - originally scheduled for December 30 - was postponed on the day because of a coronavirus outbreak at Fulham.
But the teams have only been given two days’ notice to prepare for the rearranged fixture, which is being played after Tottenham’s match at Aston Villa was postponed.
Asked whether Fulham had a right to be upset, Mourinho added: “Are you serious? I had the news I was not going to play them two hours before the game started!
“We played, if I’m not wrong, 11 more matches than Fulham since the beginning of the season. Eleven. We played every week three matches a week.
“We played in one week, four matches. They played Saturday against QPR. In London. Come on, let’s play football.”
Fulham’s FA Cup clash with QPR is the only match they have played since Boxing Day, and it has not gone unnoticed at Spurs that Parker made seven changes for the game.

Dancing On Ice almost hit a bum note after it was claimed five members of the production team had tested positive for the coronavirus with just four days to go until the live the shows
Dancing on Ice were alleged to be fearful that the show could be chopped at the last minute after five members of the production team contracted the virus.
However, it seems that chiefs and organisers of the skating programme have enforced a "robust set of measures" to ensure the safety of their staff.
According to the latest reports, producers needed to tighten up restrictions in a bid to stem a small outbreak among staff members.
The ITV hit which includes hosts Holly Willoughby , 39, and Phillip Schofield, 58, have seemingly managed to ensure that the show will go on, even though they'll be missing valuable crew who will now need to self-isolate.
A TV insider reported to The Sun: "More than five members of production are isolating because of Covid right now — it's become a nightmare.
Not taking any chances, nor wanting the show to be pulled in the final hours, ITV have put in even more stringent rules to prevent the spread of the virus.
The source explained: "They're now enforcing even stricter regulations.
"But while there are concerns about further people having to isolate, bosses are confident they have put all the precautions in place to safely be able to get the show on air."
The skating competition in recent years has boasted a live studio audience but in keeping with government guidelines it was alleged in recent reports that this function has been aborted.
It was also claimed that the judges won't be segregated like the Strictly Come Dancing panel, instead they'll all be divided by perspex screens to maximise safety, much like The Masked Singer set up.
An ITV Spokesperson told the Daily Star: "The welfare of everyone who works on Dancing On Ice is our first priority.
"We have had a robust set of measures in place ever since work on the series commenced in order to operate safely within Covid-19 guidelines and to ensure the wellbeing of everyone connected with the production."

Hamburg (dpa/lno) - In der Corona-Krise will der Hamburger Senat die Weiterbildung von Arbeitnehmern mit 20 Millionen Euro fördern. Beschäftigte kleiner und mittlerer Unternehmen, die von Krisenauswirkungen betroffen sind, sollen angesprochen und für Qualifizierungsmaßnahmen gewonnen werden, teilte die Sozialbehörde am Mittwoch mit. Die Maßnahme sei Teil des Hamburger Wirtschaftsstabilisierungsprogramms (HWSP), das die Stadt im Zuge der Corona-Krise aufgelegt hat. Sie soll in diesem und im nächsten Jahr Impulse am Arbeitsmarkt setzen. Im Dezember waren nach Angaben der Arbeitsagentur gut 82 000 Hamburger arbeitslos. Die Arbeitslosenquote betrug 7,7 Prozent.
«Je besser Menschen qualifiziert sind, desto besser können sie auch in schwierigen Zeiten erfolgreich sein, und desto geringer ist das Risiko, dass sie auf staatliche Leistungen angewiesen sein werden», erklärte Arbeits- und Sozialsenatorin Melanie Leonhard (SPD). Mit den 20 Millionen Euro können nach den Worten von Finanzsenator Andreas Dressel (SPD) neben den Maßnahmen des Bundes und der Bundesagentur gezielte hamburgspezifische Schwerpunkte gesetzt werden. «Unser Grundsatz war, ist und bleibt: Wir kämpfen um jeden Arbeitsplatz», betonte Dressel.

Pembrokeshire Murders viewers divided over 'distracting' and 'odd' Welsh accents

Pembrokeshire Murders viewers were left very divided over the accents of the Welsh cast on ITV’s latest drama tonight, with some saying they were ‘very distracting’.

Pembrokeshire Murders viewers were left very divided over the accents of the Welsh cast on ITV’s latest drama tonight, with some saying they were ‘very distracting’.
Part two of Pembrokeshire Murders dug deeper into the real-life true story of serial killer John Cooper, who was convicted and sentenced for killing siblings Richard and Helen Thomas in 1985, and Peter and Gwenda Dixon in 1989.
As the story unravelled, Detective Superintendent Steve Wilkins (played by Luke Evans) finally found the evidence he needed to put Cooper away on old archive footage of darts show Bullseye.
But while the drama intensified, ITV viewers were struggling to focus, and instead drew their attention to the characters’ accents.
Some couldn’t get used to them, with one person tweeting: “Finding Keith Allen’s accent very distracting #pembrokeshiremurders.”
Another wrote: “Enjoying #pembrokeshiremurders but struggling to understand the accents ! #fakewelsh.”
“Really enjoying the #pembrokeshiremurders but the odd accents are starting to really do my head in,” a third complained. “Also reading tweets it's amazing how many people didn't know this is a true story and basically Jim Bowen solved it.”
While a fourth offered: “Only problem with #Pembrokeshiremurders is they all have a Welsh accent not a Pembrokeshire accent. No-one in Pembs says Mam. I can hear a Pembrokeshire accent a mile off.”
Others thought Luke’s accent was impressive, and his acting even more so.
“@TheRealLukevans bloody awesome acting in the #pembrokeshiremurders,” one fan gushed.
Another praised: “Luke Evans accent is DIVINE. #pembrokeshiremurders.”
“#PembrokeshireMurders absolutely great to hear the beautiful accents. Brilliantly acted.
“Sensitively filmed about such tragedies. Love the fact I can say ‘I was in school with @TheRealLukevans. Star-struck.’ #AberbargoedBoyDoneGood,” a third shared.
A fourth added: “I lived in Tenby for a few years back in the day. I think Keith Allen’s accent is on point Ok hand #pembrokeshiremurders
As the episode ended, others were gripped to the edge of their seats as they wondered whether John Cooper had really killed his wife, or if she’d taken her own life to get away from him.
Tomorrow’s finale will likely reveal the truth.
Pembrokeshire Murders concludes tomorrow at 9pm on ITV.

NING AND MARK joined the cast of reality series Married At First Sight Australia in season 6, which was first aired back in 2019. Are Ning and Mark still together?
Ning and Mark became the sixth couple to tie the knot on the Australian version of Married At First Sight. The unique reality series follows singletons who have been paired up by a panel of experts to see if love at first sight is real. Express.co.uk has all you need to know about where Ning and Mark are now.
Ning Surasiang, 32, was paired with Mark Scrivens who was 10 years her elder.
Ning was a hairdresser from Townsville in Queensland, whereas Mark, 42, was ex-army personnel from Melbourne.
The panel of relationship experts had a difficult time trying to find someone for single mum Ning, who admitted she had trust issues.
They believed they had found the perfect match for her in fitness coach Mark, who had finally settled down following his career in the army.
Both Ning and Mark had to "marry" during a commitment ceremony, before ever having had the chance to meet.

They spent their honeymoon in Bangkok, but sadly it was not meant to be and they decided to end their relationship before the end of the experiment.
They remain separated to this day, and things did not end well for the couple when it came to saying their final vows.
Ning decided she wanted to stay with Mark, but unfortunately, he did not have the same feelings for her.
He said he had come on the show to find love but had not managed to find it with her and he was not in the relationship enough for it to continue any longer.
Ning did not take the news well, and she discarded her vows before leaving in tears.
Both Mark and Ning are on Instagram and thankfully they have both gone on to find love elsewhere.
Ning started dating her current boyfriend Kane Micallef in August 2020 and she is also a mother-of-three.
In her Instagram bio she named her children - Kia, Kobi and Kai.
She loves spending time cooking and will often share videos of herself making delicious recipes.
Ning also has a dab hand at fishing, and she has shared plenty of photos by the water.

Back in April 2019, she shared a photo of herself with Mark from the series, saying: "I’m in beard heaven... I thought it would be weird how we left off, but it’s like nothing has happened. Let’s not get weird! Just own it! #beardlover #MAFS."
She also shared a photo of the pair hugging on their wedding day, saying: "In the arms of the beholder, you make me feel safe in my own skin and safe with you. You make me feel it’s ok to not be okay #hugs #MissUs #MAFS."
Sadly things did not work out for the couple, but Mark has since found love with girlfriend Bianca Chatfield, whom he has been dating for more than a year.
He has since become the owner of the Freelancer Cafe in St Kilda, and he has been picked up by a modelling agency.
He is a huge fan of travel and has posted plenty of photos of himself with his girlfriend in some stunning locations.
He shared a photo of himself from the series, saying: "'There’s no way he’s 41, he looks 70'...Hard to believe it's been 12 months since this photo was doing the rounds in the adverts for the upcoming season and with it came some pretty funny comments.
"Anyway, all the best to this year's crew, like most people I’ll be telling everyone I won’t be watching but secretly keeping one eye on it..#notseventy."
There is evidence to suggest the pair may have reconciled after the series, as Mark shared a photo of himself with Ning, saying: "And that's a wrap... Unbelievable experience and am happy I got to share it with you... Thanks for the memories, you are a cool chick who is a good kind of koo koo bananas and I'm a better person from our time together. #MAFS"

NAGA MUNCETTY issued an apology to her BBC Radio 5Live colleague Nick Hatfield after she cut him off during a news broadcast on Monday morning's show.
BBC Radio host Naga Munchetty was in a good mood as she joked around with 5Live colleague Nick Hatfield. As the journalist delivered an update on the latest news, the BBC Breakfast host accidentally cut him off as she began pressing random buttons in the studio instead of paying attention to Nick’s segment.
As Nick wrapped up the headline, Naga remarked: “Nick, I’ve got to say sorry. Do you know what I did?”
“You pressing buttons you shouldn’t have by the looks off it,” Nick replied.
Naga told her colleague: “I do like pressing a button, particularly buttons I’m told I’m not allowed to push.
“But I pressed the talk back button and didn’t realise. It’s the button we press when we try to talk to our studio managers or studio directors or producers so we’re not heard.

“But I wasn’t meant to touch that one, I was meant to touch the cut one and I touched the wrong one.
“But you know I’m learning and I’m sorry.”
“You are learning,” Nick assured her. “But I think you just to bored of what I was talking about.”
The studio then went silent before Naga laughed: “I just cut him off again. I love this button pushing, I never get to push buttons normally.”
She continued to play around with the buttons as she cut off Nick again before he suggested she use it when speaking to politicians.
Naga teased: “Would I? Would I? Could you imagine such a thing. Nick I apologise, I will never touch that button again in the next half an hour.”
It comes after the new 5Live presenter admitted lockdown forced her to change her mind about trying out Dry January.
Speaking last week on the show, she explained she told husband James Haggar there was “no way” she could tackle the challenge but changed her opinion when the third national lockdown was announced.

“I’ll tell you where I'm at right,” Naga began.
“Before the [lockdown] announcement, I was like, 'There's no way I'm doing Dry January. There's no way I'm doing anything like that, I like my wine.’”
“You can’t go out anyway,” Naga’s colleague told her.
She replied: “There you go. But then when I heard the announcement, I thought, you know what, no.
“I spoke to my husband last night, and I said, 'No I think I may just stop drinking.
"I can't keep relying on something... food, wine, whatever, to make me feel better.’
“There is almost that kick back,” Naga continued.
Naga Munchetty airs on BBC Radio 5 Live Monday-Wednesday at 10am

Emine Ayhan, "Aklınızı başınıza alın, dikkat edin. Bu hastalık yüzünden kardeş kardeşi göremez oldu. Kurallara uymazsak sevdiklerimizi kaybederiz" dedi.Rize'de yaşayan 5 çocuk, 19 torun ile 2 torununun torunu olan Emine Ayhan, 12 yaşındayken tifo salgınına yakalandı. Salgında babası ve 3 kardeşini kaybeden Ayhan, hastalığı yendi. İlerleyen yaşına rağmen dinç olan Emine Ayhan, 3 hafta önce koronavirüse yakalandı. Evde karantinaya alınan Ayhan, virüsü yenmeyi başardı. Sofrasından doğal hayvansal ürünleri eksik etmediğini anlatan Emine Ayhan, "İnek beslerdim, yağ, peynir yapardım. Çarşıdan hiçbir şey almaz, hep ineklerden yaptığım ürünleri yer, yedirirdim. Sonra biz yaşlandık, köyler boşaldı, herkes büyükşehirlere gitti. Şimdi bu hastalık çıktı, geri dönmek istiyorlar köye. Köy hayatı çok kıymetlendi" dedi.Çocuk yaşta tifo salgını geçirdiklerini anlatan Emine Ayhan, "Beni ilk önce tifo tuttu, 12 yaşında dört tane cenaze gördüm. Babam ve 3 kardeşim öldü. Ben ölmedim, benim günüm vardı. Ondan sonra beyin kanaması geçirdim, gene ölmedim. Şimdi korona oldum, bunu da atlattım. Sadece başım ağrıdı, başka bir şikayetim olmadı, şimdi iyiyim. Ama korktum tabi ki, korkmaz olur musun can tatlıdır. Gene yağ, minci, bal, bir de kavurma yedim, şükür atlattım. Bunların faydası oluyor. 105 yaşına geldim. Artık çok hareket edemiyorum, namazımı kılamıyorum, ona çok üzülüyorum" diye konuştu. `AKLINIZI BAŞINIZA ALIN´Vatandaşları uyaran Emine Ayhan, "Aklınızı başınıza alın, dikkat edin.

Sonra kayınvalidem hastalandı. Çok korktuk ama şükür çok hafif atlattı, baş ağrısı ve halsizliği oldu. Ilık suya bal koyup içtik, kemik suyu çorbası, ıhlamur, mandalina ağırlıklı beslendik. O yaşlıydı, `bizden ona geçti, bir şey olur mu `diye vicdan azabı çektik. Sizlerde hastalığı sevdiklerinize bulaştırıp vicdan azabı çekmek istemiyorsanız dikkatli ve tedbirli olun. Tedbirsizliğimiz yüzünden sevdiklerimizin acısını yaşamayalım" dedi.DHA-Genel Türkiye-Rize Arzu ERBAŞ-Doğancan İLEK2021-01-06 08:11:19

La Grèce a soumis, mardi, sa proposition à la Commission européenne, dans l’idée de simplifier les voyages internationaux. Mais l’initiative se heurte à divers obstacles.
« Jab and go » (« Vaccine-toi et pars ») : la promesse affichée par la compagnie Ryanair dans une campagne de communication au Royaume-Uni semble, en ce mois de janvier, un peu hâtive, au point de faire l’objet d’une enquête du gendarme britannique de la publicité. Mais elle traduit l’espoir d’une partie de l’industrie du tourisme : que le vaccin rende à nouveau le voyage accessible, avant même l’extinction de la pandémie de Covid-19.
Les contraintes posées par les Etats – du test PCR négatif jusqu’à la fermeture stricte des frontières – sont aujourd’hui considérées comme le principal frein aux voyages internationaux. Avant même la validation du vaccin de Pfizer-BioNTech par les autorités sanitaires, l’idée d’un « passeport vaccinal » permettant à chacun de se déplacer librement a fait son chemin dans l’esprit des acteurs touristiques.
« Cela nécessite de nombreuses clarifications, mais ce serait l’opportunité de redonner une perspective de long terme pour la clientèle, car l’organisation d’un voyage ne se fait pas en dernière minute », estime Eric Dresin, secrétaire général de l’Association européenne des agents de voyages et des tour-opérateurs.
Mettre en place des garde-fous
Les partisans de cette idée rappellent l’existence du « carnet jaune », le certificat de vaccination de l’Organisation mondiale de la santé (OMS) exigé à l’entrée de plusieurs pays d’Afrique. Les scientifiques y sont plus ouverts qu’au « certificat d’immunité », qui aurait concerné les personnes déjà touchées par le Covid-19.
D’ici à six mois, lorsque le passeport vaccinal pourrait connaître une application concrète, les connaissances scientifiques seront plus solides quant à la durée de l’immunité conférée par la vaccination, son effet sur la transmission du virus et son efficacité face aux différentes mutations.
« Ce type de certification a été utilisé dans le passé – par exemple, avec la fièvre jaune –, et il n’est pas déraisonnable de l’utiliser à l’avenir pour d’autres maladies contagieuses, y compris le Covid-19 », estime Françoise Baylis, spécialiste d’éthique scientifique et médicale et professeure de philosophie à l’université Dalhousie, à Halifax (Canada).
Elle appelle toutefois à la mise en place de garde-fous : « Cela nécessitera une attention particulière aux spécifications techniques et aux caractéristiques de conception numérique. Cela nécessitera également l’introduction de législations ciblées pour protéger les droits de l’homme et interdire l’utilisation illégitime des certificats de vaccination. De plus, il sera important de mettre en place des politiques sociales pour répondre aux besoins des personnes, des communautés et des pays marginalisés et défavorisés. »

VIRGIN RIVER season 3 is on its way. But was Brady behind Jack's shooting?
Virgin River fans were left devastated by the ending of season two, which saw Jack Sheridan (played by Martin Henderson) shot and left for dead. The series ended before it could be revealed who was behind the attack but fans have their theories already.
At the end of season two, Jack heads back to his bar to make Mel Monroe (Alexandra Breckenridge) some food.
Viewers see him on the phone when someone enters through the front door, which Jack thinks is Mel.
However, the next viewers see of the beloved character, he is lying in a pool of his own blood on the floor.
Mel finds him like this after he had been shot by a mystery assailant in the final moments of the episode.

Now the series is confirmed for season three, many will be wondering who was behind the dramatic shooting.
One suspect whom fans think might be responsible is Jack’s former colleague and war comrade Brady (Ben Hollingsworth).
Throughout the second season, Brady is going more off the rails than ever before, quitting Jack’s bar and falling in with local drug dealer Calvin (David Cubitt).
As well as this, right before Jack is shot, he receives a call from Mike (Marco Grazzini) telling him Brady is going to be arrested because of his digging.
He also has a key to the bar and knows his way around, which would mean it would be no problem for him to sneak in.
Some fans have been speculating this could be the huge twist going into the third outing of the show.
Posting on Reddit, user Simply_Solaria wrote: “I have a theory that Brady shot him.
“My guess is Brady used the spare key, and then when Jack came out they got in like a fistfight or something which knocked over the stuff.

“And then Jack got the gun but chickened out, and then Brady proceeded to steal the gun and shoot Jack.
“Why? Because Brady just started to trust Jack and help him, to find out he is being put in jail because of him.”
Fan Dovelash added: “I don’t know about Brady intentionally shooting Jack but maybe he went there to get a gun or something? And Jack wouldn’t let him take it?”
However, other viewers were not so sold on the idea and think the show is trying to redeem Brady instead.
User Fosh_and_chops wrote: “I think the Brady redemption story - bad boy to reformer - is more appealing for the writers.
“Having Jack shot by the drug farm boss or his boss sets the next series up for higher stakes, which doesn't happen if it's just Brady out for revenge before he's arrested.”
At the moment, it seems like fans will just have to wait until season three is released to learn the truth.
Showrunner Sue Tenney has even teased it could be a mystery which lasts much longer than expected.
Speaking to TV Line she said in the next outing they will “go through trying to figure out who shot Jack but it could play out “over several seasons.”
Virgin River seasons 1-2 are available on Netflix now.

Des locataires franciliens tentent de monnayer la sous-location de tout ou partie de leur appartement.

Des locataires franciliens tentent de monnayer la sous-location de tout ou partie de leur appartement.
Dans un contexte de pénurie et de cherté, être locataire d’un logement social à Paris est un indéniable privilège dont une poignée d’occupants abusent en tentant de monnayer la sous-location de tout ou partie de leur appartement. En 2020, les bailleurs sociaux franciliens n’ont attribué que 55 000 logements, soit 25 % de moins qu’en 2019, alors que la liste des demandeurs ne cesse, elle, de s’allonger, aggravant le phénomène.
Olivia (prénom d’emprunt), une jeune comédienne et animatrice arrivée à Paris en septembre 2020, devait de toute urgence trouver un toit. Sur le site Roomlala, elle a déniché une annonce libellée sans complexe : « Chambre de jeune fille à louer » ! C’est un homme d’une cinquantaine d’années qui l’accueille et lui propose une petite chambre d’enfant, avec lits superposés et jouets, « mais pas même une armoire pour ranger [s]es affaires », raconte-t-elle. « Il ne voulait pas que je m’enferme dans ma chambre, me sollicitait beaucoup pour parler, se promenait en slip dans l’appartement quand j’étais là… Je me suis inventé un petit ami pour qu’il garde ses distances, mais je redoutais qu’il me mette à la rue comme il l’avait fait avec deux précédentes locataires, dont une jeune Russe sans papiers, qu’il a fait déguerpir parce qu’elle avait entamé une de ses tablettes de chocolat… »
Aujourd’hui qu’elle a trouvé refuge dans un foyer de jeunes travailleurs, Olivia a découvert que non seulement cet homme, un cadre travaillant dans une banque, était locataire d’un logement social de l’office HLM Paris Habitat, donc que toute sous-location est interdite, mais aussi que le loyer de 400 euros par mois qu’il lui réclamait représentait près de la moitié de sa quittance.
L’organisme HLM, prévenu en décembre 2020, a déjà réuni les preuves et lancé une procédure de résiliation du bail : « Nous ne tolérons pas la moindre sous-location. Sur un parc de 120 000 logements, nous n’avons qu’une quarantaine de procédures en cours », rassure néanmoins Stéphane Dauphin, directeur général de Paris Habitat.
« Pas de bail », « pas d’allocation logement »
« J’ai dénoncé la situation, car je ne veux pas que d’autres jeunes femmes, notamment étrangères, donc plus vulnérables que moi, tombent dans le piège », confie Olivia, encore traumatisée par cette expérience et se disant « persuadée que ce phénomène de sous-locations non déclarées, donc illégales, est répandu ».
