Dec 6 2020 Share

A vote taken on the 3rd of December at the Danish Parliament affirmed a near-total ban on new contracts being issued for oil or gas exploration in the North Sea.

Licenses which were issues before the vote will be sustained until 2050. This move is estimated to cost Denmark around 2.1 billion.

Danish Minister of Climate and Energy and Public Utilities, Dan Jorgensen said that “It’s a tough decision, it’s an expensive decision, but it’s the right decision”.

Vulnerable patients redirected to health centres as doctors fail to receive flu vaccines

Dec 5 2020 Share

Vulnerable patients around Malta have been redirected to health centres as general practitioners have yet to receive thousands of flu vaccines ordered from the government. 

The President of the Association of Private Family Doctors, Anthony Azzopardi, expressed his fear that vulnerable patients going to health centres would overload the health system. 

The government of Malta has ordered another 50,000 flue shots which will arrive later in the season after the first 100,000 flu jabs were already made available and distributed within a record two weeks.

Shawn Mendes releases new album ‘Wonder’

Dec 5 2020 Share

Canadian heartthrob Shawn Mendes has finally released his long-awaited album ‘Wonder’ and says it “feels like freedom”. 

The 22-year-old came out with a 14-track album following the release of his singles ‘Wonder’ and ‘Monster’ with fellow Canadian Justin Bieber.

The project is a grandiose soundscape in its entirety which plays with the listener’s heartstring in typical Shawn Mendes fashion and we think it may hold up, if not exceed, all our expectations for his album.
