Aucun de leur propriétaire n'a eu de symptômes grippaux, et a fortiori aucune transmission interhumaine par la suite.

Eight kittens die of bird flu, pet owners warned to be alert - DutchNews.nl
Eight kittens in the Netherlands have died from bird flu, the first confirmed deaths among young animals, agriculture minister Femke Wiersma told MPs. The kittens were born on a goat farm and seven had already been re-homed when the farmer found the remaining kitten dead. Tests showed it was infected with the H5NI variant of bird flu, and the other kittens have also since died, Wiersma said. It is not yet clear how the kittens became infected, but the source...

La part de décès liés au #Covid19, c'est-à-dire avec "mention de Covid comme affection morbide ayant directement provoqué ou contribué au décès" sur le certificat de décès, repasse sous la barre de 1% .

This feels like a crossing of the Rubicon. It is not an unconsidered expression of opinion by one journalist in the heat of the moment but a planned editorialising by the BBC, a passing of judgement on the government.
It is a grave mistake.

Reminder: G20 leaders knew last weekend that Trump was going to try and oust South Africa from next year's summit. That's why this final paragraph of the Jo'burg Summit Declaration was so very carefully worded. The "Miami" Summit (at Trump's golf club in Doral) is now very unlikely to happen.

Decent move - but why wait till 2029? Too many tax exemptions apply to pensions, it’s part of our regressive tax regime - the more money you have the more exemptions you get.

Salary sacrifice... good to see the back of it. It was a perk for the higher paid and did not benefit those living from week to week/month to month struggling to make ends meet on poor/low pay. Good to hear Shelagh Fogharty complaining about it.... because??
