Third wave in Germany forced lockdown extension

Europe’s biggest economy is poised to re-enter lockdown. German Chancellor Angela Merkel is meeting with 16 states regional and decides to tighten the lockdown measures in the country for the April month. 

Unfortunately, Germany is facing third wave of coronavirus infections. The country has registered almost 8K daily positive cases of coronavirus. Germany’s first wave a year ago is relatively small when we compared with latest number of cases. In April 2020, there were 5K cases daily and after conducting quick rapid tests the number of cases drastically reduced.


During second wave in December, Germany received 20K cases and in third wave in March’21 another sharp rise in number of cases. Germany looks set to tighten lockdown measures today and extend them into April as Europe's Covid third wave gathers pace. On Sunday, protests takes place in many places in Germany against continuation of lockdown restrictions. Police clash with demonstrators as huge anti-lockdown protests break out in Germany. Vaccination programme is very slow in Germany compared to other EU nations.




This added further increase in number of cases. Quick testing and vaccination are not happening at speed in Germany. Germany resumed vaccinations with the coronavirus vaccine made by AstraZeneca on Friday, following a recommendation by European regulators that the benefits of the shot outweigh the risks. Earlier, it stopped the AstraZeneca vaccine after getting series of complaints of clotting the blood. Government criticized for falling behind UK, which has vaccinated three times as many people. It is shocked that health ministry failed to collect the exact age-wise people data for getting vaccination.

Who killed cricket in Pakistan?

Pakistan won the 1992 WC under the leadership of one of the greatest all-rounders in the world Imran Khan. Now, he is leading the country as Prime Minister of Pakistan. Every cricket lover in the country wants to see the glory in the gentleman game after Imran became PM for Pakistan. But his leadership can’t give any assurance to other nations to play the game in Pakistan. New Zealand abandoned the historic Pakistan tour just a few minutes after the first ball was to be bowled in the first ODI in Rawalpindi. Both teams have considered this series as preparation for the ICC T20 World Cup. Kiwis cites ‘Security threat’ to its players in Pakistan. There is a question that arises why NZ came and cancelled the visit. This is a massive blow to Pakistan cricket who wants to revive the game in the country.
