Vaccines Start To Kick In, World Stock Markets Moving Up (Except KLSE), Oil Price Moving Up
Yes it is good news. In countries where the Covid19 vaccines have been rolled out the results are already coming in and they are very good. The vaccines are working. The numbers of infected, sick etc are coming crashing down.
As a result world markets are reacting positively - stock markets around the world are going up, oil prices are moving up. All these are in anticipation that the war against the Corona Virus is turning around - we (err...the human race lah) are winning.
Here is some news from Israel which rolled out its vaccine program just a few weeks ago:
infection rate continues to decline
number of people vaccinated is on the rise
open areas only to people who have been vaccinated
shopping malls, cultural, sporting events, hotel (rooms only), gyms
can open street shops, malls, cultural shows entry only for green pass holders
February 23 start of the next phase
Israelis enjoyed first weekend without restriction on travelling one kilometer
thousands of hikers return to nature
150,000 hikers visited national parks
packed Israeli beaches
Israel’s (Covid) reproduction rate dropped to 0.88, lowest in the three months.
4,595 cases discovered on Friday - 7.1% of roughly 67,000 people screened
