Russia has registered what it describes as the world's first Covid-19 vaccine for animals, the country's agricultural safety watchdog says.
Clinical trials of the vaccine, Carnivac-Cov, involved dogs, cats, Arctic foxes, mink and other animals, according to Rosselkhoznadzor's deputy head Konstantin Savenkov.
Savenkov says the animals involved developed antibodies to the virus in 100% of cases.
Another jab made by US veterinary pharmaceutical company Zoetis was cleared for use on dogs and cats last October, without being tested on other animals.
Got a link from my GP to book my second AZ jab. It says 12 weeks is the recommended gap but is only letting me choose a slot on 8 weeks or 9 weeks from my first.
Anyone else had this? Worth contacting my gp over or just book it?

It might be that the app doesn't have appointments that far ahead, but as said above book one that is.
My old dear gets her 2nd jab on Saturday 2 weeks earlier than planned.
Quite the day, 2nd jab call in the morning, first day of no shielding and just got a call to say her cancer is back on her liver and chemo starts again soon.

It was given experimentally to several great apes at San Diego zoo earlier this month after eight gorillas tested positive for Covid-19 in January.
Infections have been confirmed in various animals worldwide, from dogs and cats to ferrets and mink. However, cases are generally quite rare.

Second doses of vaccine outnumber first doses

A total of 270,526 second doses were registered on 30 March, compared with 224,590 first doses, the latest government figures show.

Book it!!
I kindly drove her down Harvey Gardens after and don't worry The Valley is still there.
From the other chart 52% of adults in NI have had one jab, yet only 59% of over 50s have had it
Are they vaccinating across the age groups, rather than concentrating on over 50s?
