After a seven-year stint at Racing Point, Mexican racer Sergio Perez is set to join Max Verstappen at the Red Bull Formula 1 team in hopes of taking the team to the next level.

Red Bull’s recruitment of Perez comes at what he calls ‘the peak of his career’ and the racer had previously stated that he would take a sabbatical if he did not secure a spot with Red Bull Racing in 2021.

It is unclear what plans are for Red Bull’s Alex Albon, but Christian Horner had clarify that he will not be demoted to the AlphaTauri team.

Hospital health workers will be the first to be vaccinated

 - COVID-19 - Dec 19 SHARE ON:

Hospital health workers will be the first to receive the COVID-19 vaccination upon its arrival to Malta, as confirmed by the health authorities.

Vaccines will be given on a staggered basis, not one department at a time, so that if any side effects occur, the department would not collapse completely. The same approach would be taken for elderly homes, those second-in-line for the vaccine.

Malta’s approach to administration of the COVID-19 is similar to that being taken in the United States, rather than the approach taken by the United Kingdom.
