4 December 2020: Update on The Corona Pandemic – Now that we are having a view on several working vaccines and that there are more in the pipeline the Belgian Government announced our country’s coronavirus vaccination strategy. In a first wave all residents and staff in residential care centers for elderly, followed by those in other care institutions, including volunteers will be inoculated. This effort will most likely start on 5 January. Then healthcare personnel in hospitals, and healthcare professionals working in the first line will be vaccinated. Third will come people aged 65 years and over and people between 45 and 65 years old with specific underlying disorders. The last group of the first wave will be all people working in an essential profession (i.e., police, firefighters, etc.). It’s not clear yet if this group will include teachers. In a second wave the general population will be vaccinated. During the first wave inoculation will happen more or less centralized whilst in the second wave one is hoping that the vaccines may be administered by general practitioners and nurses. The timing of this phased approach will of course depend on the number of vaccines available at the time. Net-net, we’re moving in the right direction, but it very well may take the best part of 2021 until the majority of the Belgian population is vaccinated. Anyway, to celebrate the progress I’m posting another beachscape from Wissant – Opal Coast, France.
