President Erdogan, government and military officials and opposition leaders laid a wreath at Anitkabir, the mausoleum of Turkish Republic’s founder Mustafa Kemal Ataturk in the capital Ankara, to mark the 98th anniversary of the Victory Day.
Turkey said it will hold a military exercise off northwest Cyprus for the next two weeks, amid growing tension with Greece over disputed claims to exploration rights in the east Mediterranean.
Nach ausführlicher Prüfung der präklinischen und klinischen Daten aus den Phase-1/2-Studien und in Absprache mit dem Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) der US-Arzneimittelbehörde FDA und anderen globalen Regulierungsbehörden haben Pfizer und BioNTech beschlossen, einen Impfstoffkandidaten mit einer Dosis von 30 µg in einem 2-Dosis-Schema in die Phase-2/3-Studie zu bringen. Erst vor Kurzem hatte dieser Impfstoffkandidat den Fast-Track-Status der FDA erhalten.
Satellite photographs show the explosion happened at a missile production facility. Iran said the episode was a gas explosion at a different military base.

Understanding the particle size distribution in the air and patterns of environmental contamination of SARS-CoV-2 is essential for infection prevention policies. Here we screen surface and air samples from hospital rooms of COVID-19 patients for SARS-CoV-2 RNA. Environmental sampling is conducted in three airborne infection isolation rooms (AIIRs) in the ICU and 27 AIIRs in the general ward. 245 surface samples are collected. 56.7% of rooms have at least one environmental surface contaminated. High touch surface contamination is shown in ten (66.7%) out of 15 patients in the first week of illness, and three (20%) beyond the first week of illness (p = 0.01, χ2 test). Air sampling is performed in three of the 27 AIIRs in the general ward, and detects SARS-CoV-2 PCR-positive particles of sizes >4 µm and 1–4 µm in two rooms, despite these rooms having 12 air changes per hour. This warrants further study of the airborne transmission potential of SARS-CoV-2. Here, the authors sample air and surfaces in hospital rooms of COVID-19 patients, detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA in air samples of two of three tested airborne infection isolation rooms, and find surface contamination in 66.7% of tested rooms during the first week of illness and 20% beyond the first week of illness.
