Gerne, wenn es nicht hinter einer paywall versteckt wäre. Bin normalerweise kein Falter Konsument, der Artikel hätte mich zu einem machen können (habe einige online Abos), aber so halt nicht. Verlorene Marketing Chance vom Falter.
In the UK the NHS is absolutely overwhelmed, but the government has tightened the eligibility criteria for free Covid vaccination to the point that only a small minority of the population is eligible. Offering free vaccination to everyone would be an easy win here

Impfstoffe sind seit vielen Jahren ein sehr schlechtes Geschäft ( winzige Margen), COVID war die einzige Ausnahme. Die Kombination aus Antivaxxern und Abschaffung von IP könnte das komplett ruinieren. Dann wird niemand mehr investieren und wir werden viele Chancen verpassen.

Quote from JAMA, "I thought I was healthy—a lifelong nonsmoker. A wife and mother of 3. A psychiatrist and residency program director who loves her patients and her residents. And then I was diagnosed with lung cancer." - A Piece of My Mind, Jenna Taglienti, MD

My photo shows a profile view of a small horse figurine with head to the left, displayed against a dark background. Sculpted from mammoth ivory, the surface is a mottled greyish-earthy-brown colour with a shiny patina. It was once likely pale white in colour. It measures 2.5 cm height, 4.8 cm width, and 0.7 cm depth. The head is gracefully lowered with a long and elegant curving neck, and a convex curved back. The four legs are incomplete. The top of the tail remains. The eyes, nostrils, and mouth are carved as indents. The ‘Vogelherd Horse’ was excavated in 1931, together with a number of other ivory animal figurines from the Vogelherd Cave, Swabian Jura, Germany. It is the oldest known sculpture of a horse. On display at the Museum of Ancient Cultures, at Hohentübingen Castle, Tübingen, Germany.
Something ancient and wonderful for the weekend!
