Drugmakers who designed the first Covid-19 vaccine to gain clearance from Western regulators say they could reset the shot to counter a new strain within just six weeks, if needed. Authorities ranging from the European Medicines Agency to the UK government have said theres no evidence to suggest that the strain, called B.1.1.7, is likely to evade coronavirus vaccines. Reuter s file photo BioNTech SE Chief Executive Officer Ugur Sahin said hes confident that the inoculation his company developed with Pfizer Inc. will work just fine against the fast-spreading coronavirus variant thats raising alarms in the UK and beyond. If the current shot fails to be adequately protective, though, the company could tweak it by updating small bits of genetic information called messenger RNA that their vaccine uses. The beauty of the messenger RNA technology is that we can directly start to engineer a vaccine, which completely mimics this new mutation, Sahin said at a press conference Tuesday morning. Moderna Inc. meanwhile indicated that it thought its vaccine would still shield people from the virus and that it was running tests to confirm.

G20 nations broadly back a two-state solution to the conflict in the Middle East, host Brazil said Thursday after a meeting of top diplomats, adding to pressure on Israel to accept an independent Palestinian state. HT Image The message from the meeting of G20 foreign ministers in Rio de Janeiro came a day after Israel s parliament overwhelmingly voted for a pro posal by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to oppose any unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state. More than four months into Israel s military campaign in the Gaza Strip, the Group of 20 leading economies voiced virtual unanimity for the two-state solution as the only possible solution to the crisis, Brazil s top diplomat, Mauro Vieira, told journalists at the close of the two-day meeting. The only reason Vieira didn t simply say unanimity is that not every speake r addressed the issue, a Brazilian foreign ministry source told AFP. Every minister that addressed the issue voiced support for a two-state solution, and it was a lot of ministers, he said. The meeting brought together top diplomats including US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell. Borrell had urged Vieira to use his closing statement to explain to the world that at the G20, everybody was in favor of a two-state solution, with an independent Palestine co-existing with Israel. It was a strong request for a two-state solution, Borrell told journal Mqvj Iran executed over 500 people so far in 2022, highest in 5 years: Report
The US has suspended premium processing of H-1B visas for 2019, for which applications will be accepted from April 2, but there will be no other changes and petitions will be randomly selected through electronic lottery as before. According to the USCIS, between 2007 and 2017, it received the maximum number of 2.2 million H-1B petitions from high-skilled Indians. AFP File Photo Premium processing allows companies to apply for fast-tracking petitions for a higher fee. This is the second time in two years that the US Citizenship and Immigration Services USCIS , which runs the programme, has suspended it. The rest of the H-1B selection process will remain the same, through a lottery. The lottery will be conducted as in past years, wrote Joanne F Talbot of USCIS in response to an email query about changes, if any, specifically the lottery. She added: USCIS uses a computer-generated lottery to randomly select enough petitions to meet the 65,000 general cap and the 20,000 cap under the advance degree exemption. The suspension will affect all petitions subject to the congressionally mandated annual cap, and it is expected to last until September 10. There are no changes , Talbot said when asked about proposals to end the lottery an d replace it with a system that prioritised petitions offering the highest wages to most qualified professionals. The Trump White House has pushed for ending the electronic lottery, arguing it is gamed by companies 鈥?naming Indian firms

Even as the fast-spreading Omicron strain started waning in parts of the world, another variant of the coronavirus disease 鈥?NeoCov 鈥?is creating a buzz after scientists f rom Wuhan in China, where the Covid-19 pandemic originated, flagged concerns that it may have much higher rate of transmission compared to previous strains and could potentially be the deadliest of them all. Residents wearing masks to help protect from the coronavirus gather in line as they wait for a throat swab at a Covid-19 test site outside a residential housing block in Fengtai district in Beijing, China on Wednesday. Representative image/AP According to a research paper submitted by scientists in Wuhan, NeoCov is related to the Middle East respiratory syndrome or MERS-coronavirus. The paper was published on the bioRxiv website and is yet to be peer reviewed. Discovered in a bat population in South Africa, the virus was known to be spreading only among animals. However, it has now been found that NeoCoV and PDF-2180-CoV use some types of angiotensin-convert ing enzyme, including bat ACE2 and human ACE2 for entry. Although not a new variant, the MERS-CoV virus is similar to SARS-CoV-2 in terms of symptoms like fever, cough and shortness of breath and was prevalent in the middle-eastern countries in 2012 and 2015. Many people died due to the infection.

The Covid-19 pandemic is likely to widen wealth gaps in Europe unless policymakers help end the health crisis globally, support economies until the pandemic is over and invest in making economies greener, the International Monetary Fund said. According to IMF forecasts, by the end of 2022, per capita income for central and eastern Europe would be 3.8% below pre-crisis projections, compared with a shortfall of just 1.3% for advanced EU economies. Reuters In a speech to a European Parliament conference on Monday, IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva praised EU governments for putting more than 3 trillion euros in fiscal support for firms and households, including job-retention schemes that helped more than 54 million workers.

-An investigation has been launched into the disappearance of an Israeli-Moldovan dual citizen who lives in the United Arab Emirates and has been missing since Thursday, the Israeli prime minister s office said on Saturday. Moldovan citizen goes missing in UAE, investigation launched, Israel says It said in a statement that author ities in the Gulf country had opened the investigation based on information that the man s disappearance was related to a terrorist incident , without providing further details. The missing man was identified as Zvi Kogan, a representative in the UAE of Chabad, an Orthodox Jewish group that has chapters around the world and seeks to build links with non-affiliated and secular Jews or other sects of Judaism. Chabad s world headquarters in the United States said in a statement that Kogan, a rabbi serving on behalf of the group in the UAE, had gone missing in Dubai on Thursday. The UAE s state news agency said the interior ministry was searching for the missing man and investigating his disappearance, without mentioning his Israeli citizenship. Chabad UAE declined to comment. The group s branch in the UAE supports thousands of Jewish visitors and residents in the country, providing religious and social services to Jewish people across the Gulf region, accordin g to its website.

The head of the US forces in Afghanistan has said that Russia is suppor ting and supplying arms to the Taliban. Gen John Nicholson, the top American commander in Afghanistan, speaks to reporters at Bagram Air Base north of Kabul on March 14, 2018. AP Gen John Nicholson, in an interview with BBC published on Friday, said he had seen destabilising activity by the Russians , adding that Russian weapons were smuggled to the Taliban across the Afghanistan-Tajikistan border. However, he did not say in what quantity. We see a narrative thats being used that grossly exaggerates the number of Isis Islamic State fighters here , Nicholson was quoted as saying. This narrative then is used as a justification for the Russians to legitimise the actions of Taliban and provide some degree of support to the Taliban. He said that Russia had conducted a series of counter-terrorism exercises on the Tajik border, but weve seen the Russian patterns before: they bring in large amounts of equipment and then they leave some of it behind , the implication being that they can then be smuggled across the border. Weve had stories written by the Taliban that have appeared in the media about financial support provided by the enemy. Weve had weapons brought to this headquarters and given to us by Afghan leaders and said, this was given by the Russians to the Taliban, he was quoted as saying.
