Halting Erosion using Vetiver
From Vetiver Spain in Sayalonga
Our Nursery is open by appointment depending on the current travel restrictions. Please email or call first. We have Moringa seedlings, Organic Moringa powder and Comfrey plants. We also have some local trees and some exotic trees from Africa.
Vetiver is a rapid growing and non-invasive sterile clump grass with a height of 1-2 metres and a root system of 3-4 metres in depth. We have been providing Vetiver throughout the EU for almost 10 years now. We are located in Sayalonga where we can plant year round but our best results by far start in February. The reason is that Vetiver is indigenous to India and Vetiver loves the heat of the summer. Use Vetiver cuttings as mulch around all of your fruit trees. Decomposing Vetiver improves soil quality, keeps the weeds down and the insects away all while helping to maintain soil moisture.
Vetiver is a nutritious and replenishable animal fodder. Horses and pigs love it. We use it in our chicken pens replacing hay because it stops mites.
In the 2 photos below you will see land prepared for Vetiver and the results 2 years later.
We also use Vetiver along driveways and sidewalks. It also makes a great and inexpensive ornamental hedge.
Here is a link to a short video showing the results.
https://youtu.be/rjTmb_LL2uo
We suggest planting now, as this is the BEST time of the year to plant.

Masks & Curfews- No End In Sight with Vaccines in Short Supply: The Junta will not ease Covid restrictions until mass vaccination begins in Andalucía. Considering that Andalucia has only gotten jabs to half the over 80s so far, and that the regional government has acknowledged that the vaccination of the over 80s has stalled due to the lack of doses, it is not clear how there will be any relaxation of restrictions by summer. The only restriction that may be lifted in the near future is inter- provincial travel, and even that is doubtful. Andalucía regional government officials have said they are not in favour of easing containment restrictions until mass vaccination of the population starts.
The Junta’s spokesperson, Elías Bendodo, said he regretted that there has been a halt in the vaccination of those over 80s since doses of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines – which are those recommended for this age group – are not arriving in the region.
The Andalusia region is nearing a million people with the first dose of the vaccine: 934,708 which is 7% of its 8.4 million residents. Meanwhile, 255,876 people (2.95%) have had the two doses needed for the full protection offered by the Covid-19 vaccines being used. After the process was completed in the region’s 655 care homes, the regional government is now finishing the process of vaccinating healthcare professionals, with 83% having received both doses. The 400,000 in the 80-and-over population are now in the process of receiving the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. Half have received the first dose, and 6% both doses, according to data from March 5. The regional government is also vaccinating the disabled in their homes as well as grade-three disabled people who cannot travel to vaccination sites.

Salud “hopes” to start the vaccination of Andalusians between 75 and 80 years old in mid-April: {Translated from sevilla.abc.es}
-The Ministry of Health and Families hopes to start vaccinating Andalusians between 75 and 80 years old in the second half of April and complete immunization of those over 80 years of age by the third week of next month. Everything will depend on “fulfilling” the commitment of the Ministry of Health to send 200,000 weekly vaccines from the Pfizer and BioNTech laboratories indicated for this age group. This weekly shipment is needed so that we can “finish giving at least the first vaccine” to half of those over 80 years of age who still have to get the first injection, explained the Health Minister, Jesús Aguirre.
-In the press conference after the Government Council in Andalusia, Aguirre has stated that in the inter-territorial council of Health that will be held this Wednesday, he will again ask the Minister of Health, Carolina Darias, that the State send more doses to Andalusia in order to speed up the vaccination process. The goal is to reach 70% of vaccinated by the summer, as President Pedro Sánchez has promised.
-The counselor has indicated that last Friday he told the counselor that he had approved the plan to get half a million weekly vaccinations starting in April. “The minister told me to go preparing the 600,000 and 700,000 [plan] because many more vaccines will arrive .” As supply increases, they would start at the end of April with the following age groups. If an important volume arrives, being optimistic, at the end of April it could begin to puncture the doses to Andalusians who are in the age range of 70 to 75 years has indicated.
-“If I manage to have those who are over 60 vaccinated for the summer, I will not be as worried as right now,” stressed the regional health officer. Both Aguirre and the counselor of the Presidency and Government spokesman, Elías Bendodo , have highlighted that Andalusia is the community that has given the most vaccines, 93.2 percent of the doses received. Only 3% of the population has already injected the two doses necessary to complete the immunization cycle. “We need a lot more,” said Aguirre, who lamented that 5,000 fewer vaccines arrive this week.
*Stopped calls to those over 80 years of age*
-As for those over 80 years old, the Health Minister has again asked for patience as there will be a stoppage of calls for two weeks because more vaccines are only scheduled to arrive by the end of March and April. This week no one new over 80 years of age will be called ”and at the end of March or the beginning of April the first 24,000 new Andalusians will be called over this age of the remaining half.
-“We are pending to give 50% of the vaccines to people over 80 years old, those that arrive will be for the second dose of 80 years. Hence, I ask for patience because we have to wait for more vaccines to arrive by the end of March and April. This week no one new over 80 years of age will be called ”and at the end of March or the beginning of April the first 24,000 new Andalusians will be called over this age of the remaining half.
The counselor of the Presidency assured that reaching 70% vaccinated “will depend on the government being firm and complying with what has been signed.”
-The Minister of Health and Families of the Junta de Andalucía has insisted that he hopes that Health will authorize him to give the AstraZeneca vaccine to people between 55 and 65 years old because people of those ages have not been offered this as the provision of AstraZeneca vaccines from 55 years of age is not recommended, while doses of Pfizer or Moderna are not administered either because” it would be taking them away “from those over 80 years of age.

Cancel Culture- Piers Morgan Quits ‘Good Morning Britain’ Hours After Storming Off Set: Broadcaster Piers Morgan has left Good Morning Britain, one of the U.K.’s most-watched breakfast shows, hours after he stormed off the show’s set while being confronted by a co-host over his disparaging coverage of Meghan Markle.
Morgan’s sudden departure comes after the U.K.’s broadcasting regulator, Ofcom, received more than 40,000 complaints about comments he made Monday regarding the Duchess of Sussex’s bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey.
The comments on Monday prompted calls from critics for ITV to fire Morgan, while leading U.K. mental health charity Mind said it was in talks with the network over his coverage. Photo:Twitter.

-The community marks the best figure for the start of a week since the beginning of last August, when the curve reached its lowest levels.
-Andalusia has seen 454 coronavirus infections on Monday. This is the best figure for the start of a week since 10 August, when the pandemic was at its lowest point. This data seems to confirm that the bottleneck in the drop in cases throughout last week has to do with the 28 February long weekend, which contaminated the statistical series.
-In any case, it is true that the figures are falling at a slower rate. From a drop of more than a thousand cases a day that was recorded in the community weeks ago, it has gone down to about 200 fewer infections in the weekly comparison. Thus, last Monday there were 610 cases and the previous Monday, 650, only 200 more than today.
-The incidence rate of the pandemic, which last Friday was less than 130 cases per hundred thousand inhabitants, is now at 131. This, an effect of the plateau of data in which the community is installed, may change in the next few days if the drop in infections on Monday is maintained. This variable, which measures the intensity and speed of the spread of the pandemic in Andalusia, could then fall again.
-The death toll, which on Mondays is usually the lowest of the week, is now nine, the lowest number reported by the Regional Ministry of Health in weeks. In total, the community has now recorded 8,691 deaths since the start of the pandemic.
-Meanwhile, in the hospitals the pressure continues to fall timidly. There are 1,315 hospital admissions, five less than yesterday. Mondays usually mean a rise in the number of hospitalised In addition, there is also good news in the ICU. The number of people hospitalised in intensive care has fallen by eight, and now stands at 338, the lowest figure since 16 January.

Vaccine passports will be a feature of our life for foreign travel, says Boris Johnson: “There’s been certificates for things like yellow fever and other diseases in the past, and I’m sure that that will be a feature of our life in the future.” It is understood he is considering the possibility of the NHS coronavirus app featuring a digital health passport, which would carry details of vaccinations and negative test results.

Andalusia stagnates above a thousand daily cases of coronavirus and adds another 41 deaths: {Translated from sevilla.abc.es} Updated:06/03/2021 20:43
-British strain leaves Almería, Granada, Cádiz and Jerez on level 3 alert
-Andalusian areas on level 2 Covid alert can buy high-proof alcohol until 9.30pm
-Andalusia has added 1,239 coronavirus infections this Saturday. This is much less than at the peak of the third wave, which reached almost 8,000 cases, but it also means that the community seems to be stuck at around a thousand cases a day. In fact, last Saturday the region recorded 200 fewer cases than today, which could indicate a change in the Andalusian data on the pandemic.
-Infections, which is where changes in the trend of the curve tracing the health crisis can first be seen, seem to have flattened out after weeks of vertical fall. Andalusia is seeing a plateau that may become more complicated in the coming weeks.
-For its part, the cumulative incidence rate of the autonomous community has fallen this day to 128.93 cases per 100,000 inhabitants in the last 14 days, which is 1.97 points lower than the rate of 130.9 the day before. It is down, yes, but much less sharply than on previous days. As a reference, it is worth noting that Andalusia’s cumulative incidence dropped from almost 1,000 points to less than 200 in just four weeks. And in the last two weeks it has only dropped 70 points.
-In the case of deaths, this plateau can also be observed. This Saturday there were 41 deaths, a figure similar to the previous four days. However, Andalusia is still far from the more than 100 deaths it recorded weeks ago.
-The third factor that casts doubt on Saturday’s figures is in the hospitals. This Saturday there are 1,457 people hospitalised for coronavirus in Andalusia. This is 45 less than yesterday, a drop that is positive, yes, but it is the lowest for a Saturday since the end of January. In the case of the ICU there are 355 patients, one more than yesterday, Friday.
-Andalusia is in a complicated moment in epidemiological terms. The third wave is receding with less and less force and there may come a point when the tables turn and the timid negative values become more cases and admissions. Although this is not the scenario at the moment, the plateau that is being drawn at the moment invites us to keep an eye on the numbers of the health crisis in the coming days.

Ground-Breaking Ruling For Business Struggling To Pay Rent: A Malaga court has made the pioneering decision to apply a little-known legal procedure to a business whose landlord refused to reduce the rent even though the owner of the company could prove that they had suffered severe financial loss as a result of Covid restrictions and could not possibly pay the amount owed. ‘Rebus sic stantibus’ states that legal contracts can be renegotiated or even terminated if there is a dramatic unexpected change in circumstances, such as the global coronavirus pandemic.

Microsoft Services Hack Update- White House cites ‘active threat,’ urges action despite Microsoft patch: The White House on Sunday urged computer network operators to take further steps to gauge whether their systems were targeted amid a hack of Microsoft Corp’s Outlook email program, saying a recent software patch still left serious vulnerabilities.
“This is an active threat still developing and we urge network operators to take it very seriously,” a White House official said, adding that top U.S. security officials were working to decide what next steps to take following the breach.
CNN on Sunday separately reported the Biden administration was forming a task force to address the hack. The White House official, in a statement, said the administration was making “a whole of government response.”
While Microsoft released a patch last week to shore up flaws in its email software, the remedy still leaves open a so-called back door that can allow access to compromised servers (and all accounts on those servers) and perpetuating further attacks by others.

iMac Pro DISCONTINUED- If you want to buy an iMac Pro, you’ll need to move quickly: The much-loved system is only available to buy “while supplies last” as Apple is discontinuing the high-end computer.
The only option for iMac Pro seekers looking to buy direct from Apple is the $4,999, 3.0GHz 10-core Intel Xeon W 27-inch base model, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD storage and 8GB Radeon Pro Vega 56. If you are happy with these specs, you’re unlikely to be happy about delivery times — there’s currently a three to four week delay between ordering and delivery. There is a chance that third-party sellers will have different options available, however. Full article: https://betanews.com/2021/03/07/apple-discontinues-imac-pro/#comments

‘It’s over’- Nigel Farage quits politics for good: Nigel Farage, the grassroots Brexit politician largely credited with pressuring David Cameron into having an EU referendum, has quit politics for good. Mr Farage was the leader of the UK Independence Party until he famously quit after the 2016 Leave vote.
However, he made a sensational return two years later to form the Brexit Party, which later became the Reform Party, as a reaction to the government’s negotiations with the European Union.
Now, it seems, he has finally had enough.
“There’s no going back – Brexit is done,” he told the Sunday Telegraph’s Chopper Politics podcast. Full article: https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/nigel-farage-quits-politics-for-good-b922626.html

More than twice as many cured than infected in Andalusia although the curve flattens: {Translated from sevilla.abc.es} Updated: 05/03/2021 16:32
-Andalusia has had 1,270 cases of coronavirus infection this Friday. This is the highest figure of the week, it is true. But it is also true that, after a long weekend, it takes time for the data to stabilise. It is too soon to know whether this increase in cases is due to a change in the trend or to a statistical issue. We will have to wait for the weekend data to verify this.
-In addition, the community has added 2,680 people cured this Friday, more than double the number of positives recorded, a very positive balance for Andalusia.
-What is already a reality is that the curve is flattening. From an almost vertical fall, the data has shifted to slight decreases in almost all parameters. And this is already reflected in Andalusia’s seven-day cumulative incidence rate, which has gone from 49 points to 52. It is a very slight change and also in a measure that is not the benchmark, but it points to a dangerous change in trend. To see the most reliable data, you have to look at the 14-day figure, which is down by 4 points today. From 134 cases per 100,000 inhabitants a fortnight ago to 130.
-The death toll, on the other hand, is 50 today. After five days with much lower figures, it seems that the death toll is rising again. But, once again, it is too early to see whether this is a new trend or an influence of the bridge. We have to wait and see.
-Where the good news continues is in hospital pressure. From 1,625 people admitted for coronavirus in Andalusia, the community has gone this Friday to 1,502, that is, 123 people less. It is a notable drop, true, but far from the more than 200 discharges that were recorded a couple of weeks ago. In the ICU, where it takes longer for changes to be reflected, there are still numerous decreases in patients. Today, the number of patients admitted to intensive care has fallen by 37 to 354.

Microsoft email software hack spreads, experts brace for more impact: Wielding tools that exploited four previously unknown vulnerabilities, the allegedly Chinese group that Microsoft dubs “Hafnium” has been breaking into email servers since January, remotely and silently draining inboxes of their messages without having to send a single malicious email or rogue attachment. As these hack tools gain wider distribution there will likely be a major campaign of hacked accounts and targeted spam this summer, as well as a series of updates to try and fix the problem.

Change in football rules: The International Board (IFAB) held its 135th annual meeting by videoconference on Friday and decided to delay from June 1 to July 1 the entry into force of the changes to give players, coaches and match officials more time to familiarize themselves with them, although the competitions will have flexibility to introduce changes before then.
Given the the interpretation of hand offenses has not always been consistent due to incorrect application of the rule, IFAB members confirmed that a touch of the ball with the hand / arm of a player is not necessarily an offense. It will be infraction when a player deliberately touches the ball with his hand / arm, for example, moving the hand / arm towards the ball. It will be an offense when he touches the ball with his hand / arm when he has unnaturally enlarged his body.

Huelva, Córdoba and part of Seville, Málaga, Cádiz and Jaén go to level 2 and will have new schedules: {Translated from sevilla.abc.es} Updated: 04/03/2021 18:44
-These new Level 2 covid restrictions in Andalusia will come into effect at midnight this Friday, that is, at 00:00 in the morning from March 4 to 5, for areas so designated.
-The entire province of Huelva, the Aljarafe, Seville South, Seville East and Seville capital health districts in the province of Seville; Guadalquivir, Córdoba, Córdoba North , Córdoba South in Córdoba; La Vega, Valle del Guadalhorce, Malaga and Axarquía in Malaga; and Jaén Norte, Jaén and Jaén Nordeste in the province of Jaén as well as part of the Campo de Gibraltar in Cádiz, will be in phase 2 of health alert from this Friday, according to the Junta de Andalucía.
-As announced this Wednesday by the Ministry of Health and Families , in these health districts the commercial and hospitality hours will be extended until half past nine at night. In the rest of Andalusia, for the moment, the is maintained closure of non-essential commerce at six in the afternoon as well as bars and restaurants .
-As indicated by the President of the Board, Juanma Moreno , with this new classification, almost half of Andalusia -384 municipalities- are free to schedule until half past nine at night. And that implies, it has shelled, both the hotel industry and the essential trade or not and the rest of commercial activities . “There they all enter, gyms, shops …”, has detailed the Andalusian president.
-” It is essential to act with caution to preserve this openness and to be able to apply it to all of Andalusia as soon as possible,” Moreno said in a Twitter message.
-Of the Andalusian capitals, only Granada, Almería and Cádiz are left out of phase 2 and must continue with their non-essential trade and closed hospitality, according to the map provided by the Junta de Andalucía. In the rest of the capitals – Huelva, Seville, Córdoba, Jaén and Malaga – bars, restaurants and non-essential shops can already close at half past nine at night.
-In addition, and regardless of the alert phase you are in, from this Friday throughout Andalusia the meetings will be expanded from four to six people.
-On the other hand, in level 3 there are Sierra de Cádiz, Jerez Northeast Coast, Bahía de Cádiz -La Janda and the westernmost half of Campo de Gibraltar in the province of Cádiz; also the Costa del Sol in Malaga; Jaén Sur in Jaén; Granada, Granada Northeast , and Granada South in Granada; and Almería and Levante-Alto Almanzara in the province of Almería. And at level 4 the Sierra Norte de Sevilla, the remain Serranía de Málaga and Poniente de Almería.

Andalusia adds 985 coronavirus infections, the best Thursday since the beginning of December: {Translated from sevilla.abc.es}
-Andalusia has today added 985 coronavirus infections . This is the lowest figure for a Thursday since the beginning of last December, three months ago. Furthermore, the community has not exceeded a thousand cases per day since last February, six days ago.
-Seville is the province that has added the most cases, with 204, followed by Malaga with 193, Granada with 146, Cádiz with 133 and Almería with 126. The rest of the provinces are located 76 in Córdoba, Jaén with 72 and Huelva with 35.
-The curve of the third wave is clearly downward, although there are signs of a slowdown in the decline in the data . Although there are fewer positives, the cases are falling less strongly than a month ago. Then the decline in contagions was so marked that the decline in the wave – like the rise – was almost vertical. That is no longer the case. There are fewer cases, but they descend with less power.
-Despite this loss of speed, the incidence rate remains low. In fact, this Thursday is in 134 cases for every one hundred thousand inhabitants, ten points less than yesterday. In addition, in the 7-day incidence rate -which marks the trend of the pandemic in the shorter term, it has already fallen from 50 points , which augurs that at least in the next few days the news will continue to be positive.
-Yet again the slowdown. In going down from almost 1,000 points to only 200 Andalusia took four weeks. An average of 200 points per week. Now in those same seven days it has only been reduced by 70 points . The community improves its data, but more slowly.
-The same slowed-down effect of improvement is experienced in hospitals. The community has this Thursday 1,625 admitted , 92 less than yesterday . The figure is positive, there is no doubt about that. They are less. But in recent weeks the drop in admitted for a Thursday was, on average, closer to 200 – and even 300 people – than a hundred.
In the ICU, this slowdown has not yet been noticed. It is logical, because those admitted to intensive care is one of the parameters that show the trend changes the longest. Thus, Andalusia today has 391 hospitalized in the ICU, 19 less than yesterday. Source, Spanish: https://sevilla.abc.es/andalucia/sevi-andalucia-suma-985-contagios-coronavirus-mejor-jueves-desde-primeros-diciembre-202103041201_noticia.html

Juan Marín assures that Andalusia decides in a week whether to allow mobility between provinces: {Translated from sevilla.abc.es}
-The vice president of the Board, Juan Marín, has indicated that the decision on the opening between provinces within Andalusia could be taken in seven or ten days, although he has said that for this we must see the evolution of the British strain in the next days.
-To questions from journalists, Marín pointed out that one of the experts’ recommendations this Wednesday was to evaluate the evolution of the strain in order to determine to what extent the perimeter closure can be opened of the autonomous community .
-In this sense, he added that, in his opinion, for this “we would have to consider an opening within our community of the provincial perimeter closures after a view to the next two or three weeks maximum.”
-However, he pointed out that ” this would be reasonable if the evolution of the British strain evidently allows it”, since ” there is uncertainty with the behavior of this strain of the virus and at the moment there are already 40-50% of infections of the last 14 days that come from this strain, which has a behavior in terms of hospitalizations and ICU stay longer than the previous one.”
“Today we have dropped from the 400 admitted to the ICU, we see better data but they are very similar to the worst of the first wave, which it already seems that we have forgotten, but we had 438 in the ICU. We must be cautious and prudent , because a new wave could take us to a higher figure and we would put the lives of many people at risk, and we are not going to do that, ”said Marín.
-Thus, he has stated that he hopes that a decision can be made in the next ” seven or ten days” regarding the opening between provinces, “and from there see if within the inter-territorial commission a coordination can be proposed so that in Semana Santa we can carry out a controlled opening “, for which” the health card, the QR code issued by the Junta de Andalucía would be a fantastic tool for anyone who is already immunized could move “.
-Marín has stated that ” the most important thing is that yesterday the expert committee has already moved a series of proposals that have been launched”, such as the extension of hours in business and commercial activities in those health districts that are at level 2 . In this sense, he has indicated that in Andalusia there are currently 19 of the 33 health districts that are at level 2.

These are the 27 towns in Andalucia with border lockdowns from this Friday: From Friday morning, March 5, some 27 municipalities in Andalucía will have perimeter closures limiting mobility and nine of them also will have all non-essential activity suspended too, for exceeding the cumulative incidence rates of 500 and 1,000 cases of Covid-19 for 100,000 inhabitants in the last 14 days.
According to the latest data from the Junta de Andalucía’s Ministry of Health, the 27 towns above the rate of 500 incidence rate cases are distributed throughout all the provinces except Huelva, which does not have any. Granada province registers eight, Seville seven, Almeria five, Malaga three, Jaén two and Cadiz and Cordoba with one each.

The New Zealand National Emergency Management Agency (Nema) issued a national warning on Friday morning, saying people on the east coast of North Island “must move immediately to the nearest high ground, out of all tsunami evacuation zones, or as far inland as possible. Do not stay at home”.
The US Geological Survey said this larger quake, following two others earlier on, was located near the remote Kermadec Islands at a depth of 12 miles (19km).
The US Tsunami Warning System also said the quake could cause tsunami waves reaching between 3ft (1 metre) and 10ft in height in French Polynesia, and waves of up to 3ft in Niue, New Caledonia and the Solomon Islands.

Glow-in-the-dark shark species discovered off New Zealand coast: Scientists say they have discovered that three species of deepwater shark glow in the dark, including the largest known luminous vertebrae. The kitefin shark, blackbelly lanternshark and southern lanternshark were already known to marine biologists, but have now been found to be bioluminescent, or able to emit light.

Wanted- Long Term Rental: Naythan & Mr. Bones are looking for a new home.
My current studio is just too small in these times when we are stuck at home most of the day.
My dog Mr. Bones, a very well behaved, city friendly Galgo mix (Spanish Greyhound), must be welcome.
Should be easily accessible, preferably ground floor but one flight up is ok, and within walking distance of a supermarket. A small outdoor space such as a terrace or balcony would be a plus.
It must have internet already installed, minimum 30Mb/s.
I can pay up to €300 per month plus bills and internet. In my 10yrs on the Costa I have never been late paying rent. No studios please. I would consider unfurnished if that gets me the right place.
Anywhere near the coast between Velez Malaga and Nerja considered.
I work nights, and tend to walk the dog late at night, so a place with sensitive neighbors is not appropriate. I am a smoker, but if there is a place outdoors to sit with my laptop on a table, for hours at a time, then I won’t smoke indoors.
To start May or June and prefer a 3 year lease. I realize this is asking a lot going into summer season, but this is not going to be a normal summer, some landlord may prefer reliable monthly cash in hand year round.

Recommendation for Mandy’s Paintbox: We hired Mandy to paint the roof of our conservatory. It had a white, very bright surface which the neighbors above us found very uncomfortable. Giving the problem to Mandy due to her advert on “Digame” we found her very professional and provided the perfect solution for all parties. We would unreservedly recommend Mandy. Her pricing is very reasonable and you get a very professional service from her and a first class job.

Bars and shops will be open until 21.30 and meetings of up to six people will be possible in Andalusia in Level 2 areas (Level 2 areas to be announced Thursday): {Translated from sevilla.abc.es} Updated 03/03/2021 20:23
-Andalusia has new measures against the coronavirus. Thus, as explained by the Minister of Health and Families, Jesús Aguirre, shops and restaurants in the community will be allowed to open until 21:30. Until now, non-essential businesses as well as bars and restaurants had to close at six o’clock in the evening. This measure will only be applied in areas that are on level 2 alert, Aguirre said.
-In addition, according to the Junta de Andalucía, gatherings – as long as they are outdoors – will be allowed for up to six people. Until now, only four people were allowed.
-According to the Junta, the decision on which areas are at level 2, 3 or 4 alert will be taken this Thursday by the provincial alert committees. They stress from the Board that “the alert levels are reviewed every week, so the cities in level 3 may pass the following level 2 or vice versa, depending on how the incidence evolves”.
-What remains unchanged, explained Junta sources, is the perimeter closure of Andalusia as well as the confinement of the provinces. The closure of non-essential trade in localities with more than 1,000 cases per hundred thousand inhabitants or the confinement of municipalities when they exceed 500 is also maintained. Finally, the curfew is maintained from ten at night until six in the morning, as it is now.
-Aguirre, after the meeting, called on citizens to be cautious. “We have observed the parameters both at 14 and 7 days and there is a discreet drop as well as a stabilisation in ICU and hospital beds”. For this reason, said the Health Minister, they have decided to be “very prudent when it comes to taking measures to minimise this possible fourth wave and that we are in a plateau phase in the third wave”.
-This announcement comes at a time when Andalusia’s third wave of the pandemic is falling at an increasingly slower rate. In this peak of infections, which reached almost 8,000 cases per day at the end of January, hospital admissions and deaths soared to figures unheard of in this health crisis. The cumulative incidence reached almost 1,000 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, a figure that fell to 143 on Wednesday.
-These soaring figures have their origins in the Christmas period. Then the measures were relaxed when the second wave had not completely subsided and this led to this number of infections and, later, deaths. We must not lose sight of the fact that February was the blackest month in Andalusia, with almost 2,000 deaths due to the coronavirus.
-The Andalusian government wants to avoid a repeat of the Christmas situation. It is true that the figures have fallen compared to the peak of the third wave. But then the figures were extremely high. To put the data into perspective, it is enough to point out that between the second and third waves the incidence dropped to a very similar level to the current one. Relaxing the measures then increased tenfold the variable that measures the speed and severity of the pandemic.
-Determined not to let the third wave be revived or a fourth wave be reached, the Board has opted for a conservative profile in the relaxation of restrictions. This is something they warned about and which they based on the example of Christmas and the presence of the British variant – up to 70 percent more contagious than the original – which already accounts for 60 percent of cases in the community on average. And this is something they have achieved.
-We will have to wait until Easter, which is a month away, to see if the measures and restrictions are relaxed further. This is something that has been requested, above all, by the hotel and tourism sector. However, it is not yet clear that the government and the Junta will grant.

How is Spain’s Covid vaccination campaign going in each region, and who is next on the list?: Spain has ended the first two months of its Covid-19 vaccination campaign with 4.5 million shots administered and 1.2 million people having received the two doses needed for the full protection provided by the medication. The country’s regions are not only in charge of their healthcare systems and their response to the pandemic, but also of the vaccination process. While there are disparities from territory to territory, the first group in the process as set out by the central government – seniors in residences and their carers – is nearly complete, while the second – frontline health workers – are receiving their second doses.
The regions are now overlapping the campaign with other priority groups, such as other healthcare staff, adults with major disabilities, the over-80s and essential workers, including teachers. While some areas are opting for vaccinations in healthcare centers and door-to-door mobile units, others are resorting to the use of large installations such as arenas.

Hack Alert- an email campaign that impersonates WeTransfer and WhatsApp to install a virus: {Translated in full from laprovincia.es}
-The National Institute of Cybersecurity (Incibe) has detected a new email campaign that impersonates the identity of companies such as WeTransfer or WhatsApp, whose messages contain links that download a Trojan on the device.
-The message urges the user to click on a link using different arguments, according to Incibe in a statement on Wednesday. To provoke the user’s interest, subjects such as “Backup of WhatsApp messages ×913071605 Nº (xxxxx)” and “I sent you some files – Nº (xxxxx)” appear, although it is not ruled out that there are other emails with different subjects, but with the same objective, to incite the recipient to download a malicious file under some pretext of interest.
-“If you have not executed the downloaded file, your device is probably not infected. All you need to do is delete the file you find in the download folder. You should also send the email you received to the trash bin,” Incibe said.
On the other hand, it has warned that those who have downloaded and executed the malicious file may have infected their device and has recommended that they scan it with an updated antivirus.

Texas and Mississippi to end mask mandates, allow businesses to reopen at full capacity: Gov. Greg Abbott ended Texas’ statewide mask mandate and announced an executive order to allow all businesses to reopen at full capacity. They join 14 other states—Florida, South Dakota, Alaska, Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Tennessee—in not having mask mandates.
“It is now time to open Texas 100%,” Abbott said at a news conference Tuesday.
“COVID has not suddenly disappeared,” he added. “But it is clear from the recoveries, from the vaccinations, from the reduced hospitalizations, and from the safe practices that Texas are using, that state mandates are no longer needed.”
-Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves announced Tuesday that he’s lifting mask mandates for all counties. “This new order removes all of our county mask mandates and allows businesses to operate at full capacity without state-imposed rules or restrictions,” said Reeves.

Recommendations & Requests

Travel through France in March: Has anyone recently crossed the border into France, and can give advice to what is required? I need to go back to the UK in a motor home before the end of March, using the Channel tunnel at Calais. I believe it is essential to obtain a negative PCR test to cross the border from Spain. If so, has anyone obtained a test with quick results around Velez Malaga, as it will take me at least 2 days to reach France from here, and as the test needs to be within 3 days of the border, I do not have time to wait for the result? Alternatively, has anyone obtained a test nearer the French Border without having to wait days for the result? I really need to leave here around the 13th March. Any answers please to martin.hux@msn.com
Thank you. Martin, Velez Malaga

Andalucia Covid Update- Andalusia has only 355 coronavirus infections, the lowest number since August last year: {Translated in full from sevilla.abc.es} Updated 02/03/2021, 19:09
-Andalusia has added 355 new cases of coronavirus infection on Tuesday. This is such a low figure that we have to go back to August last year to see a similar number. It was on 12 August last year when the region had 306 cases, seven months ago. To put into perspective the low number of positives in Covid-19 on Tuesday, it is enough to remember that four weeks ago the number of infections exceeded 7,000 per day.
-The third wave has now reached low levels, bringing the incidence rate of the pandemic to 163.1 cases per 100,000 inhabitants, down from more than 900 at the beginning of February. The reduction has been almost as explosive as the escalation of this curve that originated with the relaxation of restrictions for Christmas but which came from high baseline figures because the second wave never reached figures as low as the first when it rebounded.
-Although the trend is clear and Andalusia is reducing cases, Tuesday’s figures should be taken with caution. After a long weekend, the community tends to underreport cases. We will have to wait for the rest of the week to take the temperature of the extent to which the number of cases in the region has fallen over the last few days.
-As things stand, and with no changes in restrictions and measures for now, the outlook remains good. Thus, the cumulative incidence of the pandemic is already at 60.6 points. This figure is merely indicative because the data at seven days is not a guide as it is at 14 days, the maximum incubation period of the coronavirus. However, this figure indicates a clear trend: the number of cases continues to fall and the incidence of the pandemic may still fall below 100 points in the near future.
-In any case, the number of daily infections is already close to zero in some provinces. On Tuesday, 90 cases were reported in Almeria, 71 in Malaga, 57 in Cadiz, 50 in Seville, 47 in Granada, 32 in Cordoba, 6 in Jaen and only 2 in Huelva.
-The number of deaths, meanwhile, is 24 on Tuesday. Although this is double the number for Monday, we must again take into account the bridge effect. These are the best figures in weeks for a Tuesday. Seven days ago, it should be remembered, there were 100 deaths; the previous week, 113. In any case, and even with this modulating effect, the figure maintains the trend that began weeks ago of a decrease in deaths due to the pandemic which, since the beginning of the crisis, has already caused 8,470 deaths.
-Meanwhile, the pressure in hospitals continues to drop another day. On Tuesday, 1,715 people were admitted to hospital for coronavirus, two fewer than yesterday. The decrease does not seem very pronounced but it should be borne in mind that, after a weekend, the data tends to rise, something that has not happened. So far Andalusia has reduced the number of hospitalised patients by 65 percent since the peak of the third wave, which was 4,980 Covid-19 patients at the beginning of February. In addition, in the ICU there has also been a drop in the number of hospitalised patients. There are 415 this Tuesday, 17 less than yesterday.

Will Spain be able to vaccinate 70% of the adult population by the end of summer?: Spain has administered two doses of the Covid-19 vaccine to 2.6% of the population. Although the pace of the vaccination drive picked up in the last week of February, the rollout has been more or less steady over the month: every day, 0.17% of the population are injected with one dose, which equates to around 500,000 people per week. At this rate, the European Union’s target of vaccinating 70% of the adult population before the summer – amounting to 58% of Spain’s total population – will not be met. As the graph below shows, if the current speed is maintained, barely 20% of the total population will have received two doses by September. Image: El Pais.

Spain’s Ministry of Health recommends taking paracetamol if receiving the AstraZeneca jab: The British vaccine, that is only being used in Spain for the vaccination of under 55s, is reportedly causing many more side effects than those of the Pfizer or Moderna laboratories.
In the latest update of the coronavirus vaccination plan in Spain, experts have changed the protocol to introduce the use of 1 gram doses of paracetamol every 6 hours after verifying that there have been numerous cases in which people, during the 24 hours after the jab, suffered side effects similar to those of an intense but brief flu. (Yikes! 4 grams in 24 hours sounds like a rather heavy dose to me. -Ed.)

BEWARE POSSIBLE FAKE NEWS- This is important if true, but I have not been able to verify it on any Official Gov’t news source; it’s only on 2 small news websites. -Ed.
Expats With Private Health Insurance WON’T Be Vaccinated in Spain: The Andalucían Health Service (SAS) has indicated that any foreigners who aren’t registered on the public health system here in Spain will either have to travel to their home countries to get the Covid jab or ‘regularise their situation’ in Spain – in other words, apply for legal residency and thus become part of the Spanish public health system.
The SAS has confirmed that only foreigners who are ‘beneficiaries of the Spanish public health system’ will be included in the vaccination plan. Since the rollout is ‘managed by the public health system’ those with ‘private insurance will not be vaccinated’.

New EU ‘right to repair’ laws require appliance technology to last for a decade: White or electrical goods such as fridges and televisions in the European Union must be able to be repaired for up to a decade under new rules that came into force on Monday. The “right to repair” is aimed at reducing the large amounts of electrical waste on the Continent. It is part of a broader push from Brussels to make goods more energy efficient, longer lasting and easier to recycle.
Manufacturers will have to ensure replacement parts are available for up to ten years but some will only be provided to professional repair companies.
New devices have to be sold with a repair manual and be made so that they are easy to recycle and can be dismantled with conventional tools.
In a next step, environmentalists and consumer rights groups want the “right to repair” expanded to include smartphones, laptops and other small electrical devices.
