Germany - Coronavirus COVID-19

It's exhausting. The government seems to go for NoCovid strategy but to me that's unrealistic with Europe's open borders. Many countries that have worse numbers than Germany are opening up.

That's quite good. Everyone in my office gets tested twice each week.

Vaccination campaign seems to help. For the first in a long time there is not a single person in ICU with Covid here in my town.

I keep seeing a pop-up ad here on WS that's driving me batty. From the NY Post, claiming the nurse in Friesland injected over 8,000 people with saline instead of the Covid-19 vaccine. But as far as we know so far, it may have been as few as 6 people, right?
I feel so bad for all of the people who are affected by this - a horrific and a terrible violation of trust, and so dangerous.
IMO the vaccine center should be ashamed that it was possible for this nurse to go rogue, whether she harmed 6 people or more. It sounds like they easily could never have known she did this, except she admitted it to someone.
