There was really no summer in French: I live circa 30 km from the French German Border, so I had the same weather as French ^^

Well I suppose we could consider the South of France a separate country, since a fair chunk of it (and Spain) wishes to go independent

Off-topic, of course. But now that it's come to that, if the criteria is south of France + independentism don't forget Corsica.Yes, now combine that with Occitania + Catalonia et voilà

Interesting. It might even be effective against A/N flu viruses if they use a similar approach to copying their coding (and they're both RNA viruses so let's hope).

Some more 'news':

One typical remark by DARPA on the project proposal:
While DARPA said the project had "a good running start" since field locations had already been identified, it noted "several weaknesses" within the proposal, including DARPA's "concern that vaccine approaches may lack sufficient epitope coverage to effectively protect against the diverse and evolving quasi species of the many coronaviruses found in the bat caves."
Wuhan Lab Wanted to Enhance Bat Viruses to Study Human Risk, Documents Show
The documents promise to fuel the controversy around the Wuhan lab's role in the pandemic.

If true, that's weird. Western governments at the very least are constantly being lobbied by people employed by big pharma, along with big oil, big tech and almost any other sector you can define as 'big'.

Smartwatches detect viral infection before symptoms surface in study - UPI.com
In a small study, researchers showed that a wearable device, like a Fitbit or Apple Watch, could detect which patients had the H1N1 flu and which had a common cold.

Questions would escalate if she stays. Probably afraid of being lynched by the mob later.
This is not a (mostly harmless) "and now we've got an expensive bridge" type of lobbying.
But it seems like she is keeping the money...
So... are you advocating for mandatory smart watches? We can embed them in your arm, or, as you can see in SciFi shows, on the forehead as a beautiful gem.Smartwatches detect viral infection before symptoms surface in study - UPI.com

Ha! No. Lol but I thought it was an interesting development and if they FLOSSed the code then people with FOSS smart watches and phones could also benefit from it, without third parties being necessarily able to snoop on the results.
I just hope there are not many patents involved, because if there are, I do not see a bright future for any FOSS that comes up is whacked down by lawsuits.

And FOSS counters with hosts of forks posted to github, gitlab and any number of more quiet git hosting sites.

Half Pepperoni, All Cheese
I’ve noticed that half of Florida and Louisiana’s counties are back down to orange on the CDC’s COVID-19 county tracker site, but all of North Carolina’s counties are still red. Maybe the sooner Delta hits somewhere, the sooner they get over it? Anyway, hospitalizations are down almost half from their Delta peak here in NC, so it doesn’t feel too bad here.
Take it easy, Francis.
Tests aren’t gratis anymore in Germany, vaccinating is still, wouldn’t this be enough motivation to take the vaccine?
Oh my sweet summerchild, these are paid by us out of the treasury, and 3 more generations down the line they will still be paying for the (for now planned) second booster shot... so work hard, pay income tax, because that will go straight to the Pharmaceutical companies... for a few generations to come. The transport, the cooling, the nurses, the buildings/renting facilities, commercials on tv, signs, brochures, protective clothing, latex handshoes, phonebills, IT infrastucture, car rental and end-of-year bonusses for the bosses...
And the vials and needles are not recycled... so there will be glass, plastic and metal in landfills.
