"The govt assured us that the #COVID datastore would be unwound at the end of the pandemic & the data destroyed. They also said any extension would go out to public tender.

All of that has now turned out to be false"

2/. The #PalantirPlan was first properly revealed after another legal challenges by @openDemocracy & @Foxglovelegal in the UK & @nytimes in the US

They revealed that Palantir ‘won’ contracts at the same time to run #COVID19 data stores for the NHS & HHS
3/. Unfortunately, the detail of how much of the UK’s ‘health data’ is being collated by #Palantir has been redacted from the contract

What possible reason could there be for wanting to keep these hidden?

The answer lies in the #PalantirPlan.

A very thorough and comprehensive read on the new strain of COVID-19 virus B117 that is recently sequenced in UK..!
sciencemag.org/news/2020/12/m…
From what I have understood until now. It *can be* spreading faster than the original COVID SARS 2 strain that started this Pandemic, but there is NO CONCLUSIVE proof of that as of yet
The same was thought about virus strain that spread from Spain throughout Europe, that later turned out wrong hypothesis because of messy and inconclusive initial data. So we have to wait and watch . It is too early to say anything conclusively.

Meanwhile in #France,
"the peak of this second wave is over"

(according to the President in his Adress to the Nation):
Wait... "the peak is over" doesn´t mean "it´s back to normal"!

Confinement will only fall on December 15,
if there´s less than 5.000 new cases a day.
(today it´s ~9.000).

France is disappointed.🙁

Although they certainly can make it happen.
Meanwhile in #Switzerland:
(excess mortality of the second wave is significant)

Good news: fastest decrease in infections happens in the worst hit areas now.

Ahora lo entiendo todo
#Pfizer ha acelerado la venta y producción de su #vacunacovid al igual que todos laboratorios para intentar sacarla al mercado lo antes posible.
¿Por que?
Por que el virus ha mutado en #Dinamarca en los #visones y hará inservible la #vacuna Image
Esta #pandemia va a ser mas larga y dura de lo esperado.
Esta mutación peligrosa ha ocurrido en #Aragon y #Dinamarca .
¿que pasará en África, India, China,? Sin datos.. sin control.. Image
Pensamos en el #virus como algo que pasará pronto, nadie piensa que pueda durar años, no es concebible.
El #SARSCoV2 ha llegado para quedarse o estar un buen tiempo.

New mink #SARSCoV2 mutation could potentially jeopardize vaccine effectiveness.

12 humans with new mutation identified, who had a reduced sensitivity to antibodies.

#Denmark

For some weeks it was known that virus spreads and mutates quickly among minks. When transmitted from human to mink or vice versa larger mutations occur.

A previous mutation was found in >160 humans.
Danish government announced to have all minks killed to avoid jeopardizing vaccine effectiveness.

Additional restrictions are introduced in Northern Denmark where the affected mink farms are located.

As #COVID19 cases are found to spread, #Melbourne (city of ~5 million) tries to contain them by going into #Lockdown.
(The interview features the idea of a dedicated #Quarantine building - that would actually help, I guess)...
"People acting as if the pandemic was over was 'not the answer, it is part of the problem' ".

"The virus had leaked from postcodes already under the stay-at-home orders to other parts of #Melbourne."
(and beyond, it is feared).
Due to #Melbourne's outbreak, neighbouring South Australia is about to completely close it's borders to #Victoria.

(Nearly) no exceptions. And those essential few who are allowed in, will have to wear facemasks the entire time...

Vorpommern-Greifswald district (where rejections of #Gütersloh residents took place, yesterday)
has specific rules:
"Those who return from international risk areas (out of Germany) or whose Corona-Warning App has alerted them, need to report to authorites"
kreis-vg.de Image
In fact, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern's Corona-ordinance really prohibits entry of people from international risk areas AND german risk areas as well.
It's just not prominently featured on their websites.

(Overlooked that myself, hence deleted earlier tweet)

People from #Gütersloh district may have to scrap all their holiday plans anyway...

An official #Lockdown is just being announced for the entire district.
(for one week, as of now)
