Here's a look at the growing Covid-19 vaccination rates over time.

From the reopening of bars and restaurants to the dropping of legal requirements for masks, many of Europe's biggest economies are now relaxing Covid rules and restrictions.

This is in spite of high levels of infections across Europe, largely caused by the spread of the omicron variant. But many governments are now impatient to reopen their societies, particularly as it has become clearer that the new variant causes fewer hospitalizations than previous strains, and as booster Covid vaccine shots continue to be rolled out.

On Thursday, England put an end to the legal requirement for face coverings and Covid passes to access certain venues as the government relaxed its so-called "Plan B" measures that were enacted before Christmas.W.H.O.

Covid: Greater Anglia adds services as Plan B rules relaxGreater Anglia is increasing services into London from a number of stations in the region. A 'piece' by Schraer is an abomination. It's a hit piece on Dr. John Campbell, a man who has been informing more than 2-million followers with solid information since the beginning of the Pandemic. He accurately commented on ONS statistics. Period. Schraer needs to be fired.
