A mass vaccination center in the southern French city of Nice was forced to close early over the weekend after
58 people turned up for
4,000 doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine, a spokesman for the Alpes-Maritimes regional police told CNN.
Doses of the vaccine were offered to people aged over 55 who have jobs with a high Covid-19 risk such as teachers, police, prison guards, but the center was forced to close Saturday only hours after it opened.

A much-anticipated travel bubble between Hong Kong and Singapore could come as soon as mid-May.
The exact launch date is still considered a “moving target”, according to those familiar with the discussions. It’s the second attempt at quarantine-free travel between the two cities.
One source said authorities are working for a timeline of mid-May, but added it was still too early to disclose details.

As part of a push to get more of its population vaccinated, Hong Kong is planning to only allow those who’ve had Covid-19 shots to fly from the city to Singapore once both governments finalise a travel bubble.
“The basis for discussion with Singapore is that people leaving Hong Kong and entering Singapore need to be vaccinated,” chief executive Carrie Lam said, when outlining a plan to give people more leeway with social-distancing rules if they get inoculated. “We want to provide incentives to encourage Hong Kong citizens to get vaccinated,” she said.
Originally slated to start in November, the travel bubble between the two financial hubs was shelved days before it was due to start, after a spike in coronavirus cases in Hong Kong. It was postponed again in December and has since been on hold as cases in Hong Kong flared, including an outbreak last month that was quelled with one of the world’s strictest quarantine regimes.
