He announced this in a video message on Tuesday. "It is no longer time to reform France, but it is time to save it," says Zemmour in a 10-minute video, which contains a lot of drama and a nostalgic undertone. That is why I have decided to run for president. 'So that our children and grandchildren know no barbarism. So that our daughters may not be veiled and our sons be not subjected. (...) So that the French feel at home again," concludes the former editor of the newspaper Le Figaro on CNews. The French presidential election will take place in April next year.Zemmour, 63, is known for his controversial statements. In September this year, he was acquitted by the French court of appeal for a number of anti-Islam statements.His candidacy comes as no surprise. Zemmour has already conducted a very extensive pre-campaign. The French polemicist will be interviewed live on Tuesday evening in a news program of the French broadcaster TF1. He will hold his first official campaign rally in Paris on Sunday afternoon.Zemmour had given a speech at a right-wing political convention in 2019 criticizing immigrants and the "Islamization of the street." He called the djellaba – the clothing that is mainly worn in Maghreb countries – and the headscarf 'uniforms of an occupying army'. In the first instance, he was sentenced to a fine of 10,000 euros.He previously accused minor migrants on television of being 'thieves and murderers'. Despite his statements, he can still be seen very often on CNews, a French commercial TV channel.In October, at a security fair in Paris, Zemmour tested a rifle that he pointed, laughing, at some journalists. French Secretary of State for Gender Equality Marlène Schiappa called the incident "horrific". [ad_2] Read more from this article on www.standaard.be

Weyts wants the education staff to be vaccinated as a priority. Teachers and staff in childcare must be vaccinated as a priority for Flemish Minister of Education Ben Weyts (N-VA). Weyts is now looking for opportunities himself. He is, as he states this morning on Radio 1 in De Morgen, looking at two avenues: either work is being done via a priority flow in the vaccination centers, or by vans that drive past schools. At the moment, 74 schools are completely closed, in addition to dozens of schools where one or more classes are in quarantine. Several schools in Leuven stated today that the pressure in education is 'unsustainable'. Weyts does put the number of schools in quarantine into perspective: 'It concerns 74 schools out of a total of almost 4,000,' said Minister Weyts. Weyts does not believe that the quarantines in schools offer a solution, and wants to 'absolutely prevent us from placing all education in lockdown'. 'The first victims of such distance education or closed schools are the most vulnerable children,' says Weyts. That is why vaccination is a priority. Need consultation first Joris Moonens, spokesperson for the Flemish Agency for Care and Health cannot say whether that is feasible. 'We don't want to rule out any avenues, but there must first be consultation between the competent ministers,' says Moonens. Then, together with the Agency and the occupational health services in education, it must be examined who can play which role, what is feasible and what capacity there is in the vaccination centers. Moonens cannot say how quickly it can be switched. 'We have to look at all options and then a political choice has to be made', says Moonens. [ad_2] Read more from this article on www.standaard.be

Analogue viewers will also see 'snow' on their screens in the last six municipalities/network regions (Beerse, Geel, Stabroek, Sint-Joris-Winge, Perk and Middelkerke). If they were still there, that is, because most customers had already made the digital switch. “During the lockdown we have the process on hold to ensure that everyone could continue to receive the necessary information via their television screen”, says Telenet spokesperson Isabelle Geeraerts.The analog customers were given two options: either reset or rescan their TV.

DPA Flames - By Michel Goldman, President of the Interdisciplinary Institute for Health Innovation (I3h), Université libre de Bruxelles Published on 11/29/2021 1: 39 PM Reading time: 3 min LListening to caregivers who oppose compulsory vaccination reveals a great paradox: they reject coercion while affirming their love for their profession and their unwavering dedication to patients. One of the essential principles of medicine is to take all the necessary precautions to avoid harming patients. This is the famous First, do no harm which underlies the Hippocratic Oath taken by all physicians before they are allowed to practice. Among the risks that healthcare workers can pose to patients, nosocomial infections are at the fore. Let us think of all those patients who in the past were infected with the hepatitis B virus in hospital. hemodialysis units. Infections by bacteria resistant to antibiotics today represent one of the great scourges that threaten public health. The nursing staff are frequently involved in the transmission of these hyper-resistant microbes and they are therefore subject to strict observance of certain basic rules, the first of which is the rigorous washing of hands before and after the care given to each patient. Read also Pierre-Yves Dermagne on the agreement on the vaccination obligation: "The caregiver can oppose a dismissal, it was essential for us" Clusters with multiple origins Covid is undoubtedly one of the nosocomial diseases. It is well established that hospitals and other healthcare institutions are high-risk places where clusters emerge with disastrous consequences for patients as well as for nursing staff and their families. The origins of these clusters are multiple: patients themselves, visitors, but it is undeniable that unvaccinated staff is sometimes involved. An American study has perfectly established that nosocomial infections are more frequent in institutions where unvaccinated personnel operate. At a time when increasingly contagious variants are circulating, it is essential to protect all those who stay or work in healthcare institutions. While the dangerousness of the new Omicron variant remains to be established, there is little doubt that elderly patients with comorbidities will remain at risk of developing serious and fatal forms of the disease. Changing the nature of the debate In this context, it is essential to inform all unvaccinated caregivers of the risks they pose to their patients. Their vaccination is the essential measure to minimize these risks, even if its effectiveness is not absolute and it must be accompanied by strict compliance with other hygiene rules. The current debate should therefore change in nature and be placed within the framework of an ethical duty which is naturally imposed on all caregivers.

On this three-dimensional "image", which looks like a map, "we can clearly see that the omicron variant presents many more mutations than the delta variant (which already presents in itself a large number of mutations), concentrated above all in one area of ​​the protein that interacts with human cells, ”said the team of researchers in a press release on Sunday. Read also Coronavirus: testing cracks, the new strategy is debated "This does not automatically mean that these variations are more dangerous, just that the virus has further adapted to the human species by generating another variant", specify the researchers. “Other studies will tell us if this adaptation is neutral, less dangerous or more dangerous. " The Bambino Gesù research team focused in its study on the search for mutations in "the three-dimensional structure of the spike protein," said Claudia Alteri, professor of clinical microbiology at the State University of Milan and researcher at Bambino Gesù hospital in Rome, interviewed by AFP. How was the image made? This protein, which is the part of the virus "studied with the most attention", is "responsible for the recognition of the human receptor and the entry of the virus into the cells". "It is on the spike that monoclonal antibodies and of course vaccines act," she emphasizes. The image was produced “from the study of the sequences of this new variant made available to the scientific community”, coming mainly from “Bostwana, South Africa and Hong Kong”. “This image, which is a bit of a map of all the variations, describes the mutations of omicron but does not define their role,” she emphasizes. "It will now be important to define, through laboratory experiments, whether the combination of these mutations can have an impact on transmission or on the effectiveness of vaccines, for example," she concludes.

As expected, the various political leaders will apply a toughening of the measures. During the traditional press conference after Codeco, Pierre-Yves Jeholet (MR) took the floor.The Minister President of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation did not have his tongue in his pocket. "I would still like to say that after this Consultation Committee, when we hear a lot of trade fair commentators, talk about 'political irresponsibility', 'that there is no longer a pilot on the plane' … Who today still have certainties about the epidemic? ", he asked.Before continuing: "Experts, politicians, scientists, I think we should all have the humility to admit that no.

These are our responsibilities today and also our responsibility tomorrow. "Not convinced by this new Codeco, Yves Coppieters believes that it was too early to calculate the effectiveness of the measures taken last week.
