“Everyone in Germany will either be vaccinated, recovered or dead”

Germany’s health minister has issued his starkest warning on the importance of being vaccinated against Covid-19 as the country battles a deadly fourth wave

During a news conference on Thursday, the minister said “by the end of this winter everyone in Germany will either be vaccinated, recovered or dead”.

Cases throughout the country are rising rapidly… with the infection rate at its highest level since the pandemic began and many hospitals already full.

Over the past 24 hours, there have been 30-thousand new infections, which is 7-thousand more than a week ago.

Germany has one of the lowest vaccination rates in all of Europe… with around 68 percent of the eligible population fully vaccinated against the virus.

To curb the virus, the government will introduce tougher restrictions… which will see unvaccinated excluded from certain venues.

Covid vaccines will not be mandatory at this stage, but the health minister says getting jabbed is a “moral obligation”.

Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok faces scrutiny for generating non-consensual sexualized images despite new safety restrictions.

A Reuters investigation found the chatbot continued generating explicit imagery despite warnings about the vulnerability of the subjects involved, raising fresh concerns over the effectiveness of the safeguards.

While officials have cautiously welcomed recent changes, the findings have reignited debate around AI accountability and user safety on social media platforms.

Scotland Yard investigates Lord Mandelson for allegedly leaking information to Epstein; PM Starmer vows to revoke his peerage if guilty.

Scotland Yard has confirmed it is conducting a full criminal investigation into allegations that Lord Peter Mandelson leaked sensitive government information to Jeffrey Epstein while in public office. The probe centres on potential misconduct and whether any information was deliberately shared.

Police say a successful prosecution would require clear evidence that Mandelson intentionally passed confidential material to Epstein. Investigators are currently assessing whether the claims meet the criminal threshold required to proceed with charges.

Officials are also reviewing the full scope of Mandelson’s interactions with Epstein during his time in government, as pressure mounts for answers and accountability at the highest levels of power.

U.S. jet downed Iranian drone by USS Abraham Lincoln amid rising tensions; Iranian boats threatened U.S. tanker, risking misjudgment.

The United States has shot down an Iranian drone that approached the USS Abraham Lincoln in the Persian Gulf, marking a sharp escalation in regional tensions. The carrier was operating roughly 500 miles from Iran when the drone moved closer, despite efforts by US forces to de-escalate the situation.

A US Navy F-35C fighter jet launched from the Lincoln intercepted and destroyed the drone mid-air, with officials confirming no damage or casualties. The incident highlights growing concerns over military brinkmanship in one of the world’s most volatile waterways.

With an increased US military presence in the region, analysts warn that even small miscalculations could trigger a wider conflict as tensions between Washington and Tehran continue to intensify.
