Joined the ladies for a lovely traditional breakfast. We even had a rooster and hen joining us for our feast. A walk around the souq was a perfect end to the morning

Corona Virus Update
Bahrain recorded 38 new cases, 0 fatalities and 17 recoveries today.

Bahrain has signed an agreement with French vaccine company Valneva SE to supply one million doses of its Covid-19 vaccine - VLA2001.
VLA2001 is currently the only whole virus-inactivated, adjuvanted vaccine candidate against Covid-19 in clinical trials in Europe.

ONLY four private laboratories in Bahrain are equipped to detect the Omicron variant of the coronavirus (Covid-19), it has emerged.

Bahrain has reinstated the travel red list following the emergence of the new Covid-19 variant that has sparked global concern.
Ten countries are on the list – South Africa, Namibia, Lesotho, Botswana, Eswatini, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Mozambique, Angola and Zambia and Nigeria.
Passengers from these countries, including those who transit through them, have been banned from entering Bahrain. However, citizens and residents of Bahrain have been exempted.

Up to one million Covid-19 vaccines are estimated to have expired in Nigeria last month without being used,
Across Europe, countries including Germany and Switzerland have struggled to maximise the use of doses. In January, officials in Britain forecast wastage of about 10% of vaccines. In April, France's health minister told local media that 25% of AstraZeneca, 20% of Moderna and 7% of Pfizer vaccines were being wasted at the time.

High vaccination rates in Africa are vital to ending the Covid-19 pandemic globally, health experts say. Only 102 million people, or 7.5% of the Africa's population, are fully vaccinated,

More than 8 billion doses have now been administered worldwide – the largest vaccination campaign in history
