The measures will be in effect from Friday morning and will also require citizens to wear two masks or masks offering high protection on public transport and in supermarkets. Foreign visitors are “strongly encouraged” to take two PCR tests a few days after arrival.

Health Minister Thanos Plevris said additional measures were expected in the new year, mainly in entertainment and sports events, to avoid another lockdown.

Italy has banned all public New Year’s Eve celebrations as daily Covid-19 infections hit a record high, the government announced.

Health minister Roberto Speranza said mask-wearing would be compulsory outdoors again and ordered people to use the more protective Ffp2 face masks on public transport and in public places such as theatres and cinemas and at sports events.

In addition, concerts and open-air events will be banned until 31 January, and discos and dance clubs will have to shut their doors until that date, in an effort to prevent mass socialising during the holiday period.

German post office replies to 30,000 letters to Santa Claus

A Christmas post office in Germany answered to a "record number" of letters sent to the German village of St. Nikolaus from children around the world.


The Christmas post office in St. Nikolaus has received letters to Santa for over 50 years now

A post office in Germany has responded to more than 30,000 letters addressed to Santa Claus, the dpa news agency reported on Monday.

The German village of St. Nikolaus — located in the Saarland, bordering France — shares a name with St. Nicholas, and children have written it letters for years.

On Monday, the post office said that it handled more letters than ever this festive season and had nearly 44 volunteers replying to a total of 30,711 letters from children in 43 countries, according to dpa. It is 866 more letters than last year's.

A majority of letters came from Germany — accounting for about 90% — while globally, children from Taiwan sent the most letters, 1,083 in total.

The post office answers every letter, and each reply is sent in an envelope marked with a special St. Nicholas postmark.

The Deutsche Post has a total of seven Christmas branches across Germany.

Aside from the village of St.Nikolaus, Santa Claus can also be reached in Himmelpfort (Brandenburg), Engelskirchen (North Rhine-Westphalia) and Himmelstadt (Bavaria).

This Christmas, the three branches in Lower Saxony saw 80,000 letters arrive from 58 countries, including China, Morocco, Australia, Argentina and the United States, a postal spokeswoman told the German news agency KNA last week.

Germans flock to Poland to buy fireworks in defiance of ban
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...efiance-of-ban

German firework producers make about 95% of their annual turnover of about €200m in the three days before the turn of the year when fireworks are usually allowed to be sold. Germany is the biggest market in Europe, equivalent to that of the US. Some manufacturers have said they believe the pandemic is being used as an excuse to squeeze the industry into bankruptcy.

The new health minister, Karl Lauterbach, a medical doctor, has campaigned in the past for a ban based on the harm he said was caused in particular to people with asthma by the fine particles emitted into the air. He has said fine particles can also cause brain inflation and dementia.

“Within a couple of hours of these chaotic, DIY new year celebrations you can inhale the same amount of fine particles you’d otherwise be exposed to over months,” he told the Guardian in a 2018 interview. “I cannot enjoy being outside when I know how exorbitant the contamination is on this particular night.”

Ừa thì đặt mua luôn pháo điện của Việt Nam cho nó lành. 129 ngàn thôi, dịp pandemic hạ giá, tặng thêm 2 ổ bánh mì kẹp.



Nói chớ cha bộ trưởng y tế mới này hơi mát dây. Giả làm như cái khẩu trang chống bụi không hề có vậy. Mua cái khẩu trang của hãng 3M, loại chống "siêu bụi" mà đeo vào. Việc gì phải cấm cản.

Nói vụ dây pháo điện 129 ngàn, nghe đồn có mấy bà Việt Nam đêm 30 nấu xong bánh tét, trở đít nồi gõ inh ỏi thay tiếng pháo.

Norwegian conscripts told to return underwear

Norwegian conscripts are to return their underwear after completing military service for the next recruits, as the army struggles with dwindling supplies due to Covid.

Though originally voluntary, it has now been made mandatory, public broadcaster NRK reported on Friday.

“Now that we have chosen to reuse this part of the kit, it helps us. … We don’t have enough in stock,” the defence logistics spokesman Hans Meisingset told NRK.

“The textiles are washed, cleaned and checked. What we distribute is in good condition,” he said.
