As Malta gets back onto its feet following the quasi-lockdown, Dean Gera Salons has took it upon itself to offer free haircuts to 21 people currently seeking employment. The wonderful gesture is aimed at easing the stress that comes with approaching a new employment opportunity which, with the advent of COVID-19, was made even more stressful.

The 21 for ’21 project is aimed at raising job applicants’ confidence for their interview. ‘We can tackle that root regrowth or smarten up those strangely ends so that you can focus on communicating what you can bring to their company’s table’ says the company. The iconic brand has been around since 2007, with founder Dean making big leaps in the business through his skill in the craft.

400,000 vaccines officially administered in Malta as cases drop significantly

May 13 2021

Malta has officially administered over 400,000 vaccines to its public, making herd immunity a very close goal indeed. 400,118 vaccines were administered in total today, of which 272,025 were first doses. Malta currently has 130,537 people vaccinated, with the vaccine rollout extending to over-16s next week. The active and daily cases have also dropped significantly, proving that the vaccine rollout met its intended goal.

With only 4 cases reported today and the number of active cases dropping beneath 200, health authorities have started to ease measures as the return to normalcy becomes more tangible. The vaccination rollout has also eased the tension on health care systems in Malta, but COVID-19 is still a very real threat. Authorities therefore remind the public to keep adhering to the health restrictions remaining so as to keep numbers low.
