President in isolation due to contact with COVID positive case

Dec 22 2021

Malta’s President George Vella and his wife Miriam Vella will be in isolation in the coming days. This is because the President came into contact with a person who was positive for COVID-19.

Both Vella and his wife tested negative for COVID-19, but will be isolating themselves since they came into contact last Monday. The President’s office stated that arrangements were made so that official Presidential appointments will be carried out in due time or through other means.

Apart from this however, Borg’s TikTok is filled with videos as to how he overcomes basic actions which we take for granted. Given his disability, he manages to work around it – showing us everything from how he cuts his food with fork and knife, how he ties his shoes and how he can even put on a wristwatch.

Doctors warn of night-time Omicron symptoms

Dec 22 2021

Doctors have warned against a night-time symptom which Omicron seems to be inflicting but people do not know about.

Dr Amir Khan has said that we need to keep on top of symptoms, revealing that South African doctors have found patients infected with the variant experiencing night sweats when they sleep. The usual symptoms are hight temperatures, continuous coughing and/or a loss of taste or smell.

The doctor explained that the symptoms that are coming out of South Africa – where the strains was first found – are showing five new symptoms.

These are scratchy throats, mild muscle aches, extreme fatigue, a dry cough and night sweats. These are the kind of sweats which prompt patients to get up and change clothes.

He also called for the newer symptoms to be added to the NHS website to help make infections easier to detect. There are currently no registered cases of the Omicron variant in Malta, but authorities are stating that it will become the dominant strain by early next year.

Dec 22 2021

After noting the need for another outlet in the South of Malta last year, Azzopardi Fisheries embarked on a journey to find a new shop which would be able to cater for their clients in the South of Malta.

That’s why their shop in Vjal Kottoner, Fgura is so close to the hearts of residents and patrons from the area and the Fgura outlet in particular is quite a different concept from other fish shops. Along with the extensive selection of fresh fish, live shellfish, frozen products, dry goods and gourmet products, customers may also find in-house chefs who are there on hand to give any help or advice with anything the customers might need.

If that wasn’t enough, the popular local brand has launched ‘Christmas at Home with Azzopardi Fisheries’ for the festive season, where clients may find ready-made food such as starters and main courses which are prepared in advance to save the client the hassle of preparation.
