Latest Corona-related news in brief:
April 21, 2021
CORONA INFECTION LEVELS IN NORWAY HAVE DECLINED by nearly half since they peaked in mid-March, according to new data from public health institute FHI. That raises prospects that the government will be able to proceed with its cautious reopening program in May and restrictions may be eased even Oslo, which has had the highest infection rates.
Last week’s 3,717 new confirmed cases of the Corona virus are down 43 percent from the same time last month. FHI also reported that 2.9 percent of everyone tested last week were positive, down from 3.3 percent the week before.
Deaths are also down, from 21 during the first week of April to 18 last week and five so far this week.

Rare cases of clotting that have been seen with two COVID-19 vaccines have put the spotlight on an uncommon reaction that occurs when the body unleashes its immune firepower against blood platelets.
Health officials are exploring whether and how the immune reaction may occur in people who have received vaccines made by AstraZeneca PLC and Johnson & Johnson. Concerns have risen so high that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Food and Drug Administration jointly recommended a pause in the use of the J&J vaccine on Tuesday.
The syndrome is highly unusual in that it involves increased clotting along with low levels of platelets, the blood component mainly responsible for coagulation, and has only been seen at low rates in vaccine recipients. The pressure is on for governments that want to hasten immunizing millions of people over the next few months to understand the risk and avoid panic.
