07.08 Madrid doubts if the implementation of the Covid certificate is discriminatory

Having the complete schedule of the vaccine against the coronavirus will not be an essential requirement to be able to take a cane or some rations in Madrid.

The Executive of Isabel Díaz Ayuso now rules out the possibility that customers of bars and restaurants have to present the Covid passport to access the interior of the premises, a requirement that the Supreme Court has just endorsed in Galicia.

07.05 Not all autonomies can impose the Covid certificate

The covid certificate for leisure in Galicia has received the approval of the Supreme Court, in a ruling known this Tuesday, September 14.

The measure can be used in the areas that the Junta de Galicia determined as necessary in its order of August 2021.

However,

the Galician community is not going to use it

for the moment.

The limitations of use make the passport only viable in municipalities with high or maximum risk and currently in the region there is no municipality in this situation.

Can the Covid passport be imposed in all autonomous communities?

07.00 Moderna defends the need for a third dose against the coronavirus due to the progressive loss of efficacy in the vaccine

The American pharmaceutical company

Moderna on

Wednesday defended the use of booster doses of its

Covid-19

vaccine

based on new data on the apparent decrease in its effectiveness over time.

The company released details of a study in which it compares the cases of

coronavirus

registered between participants in its clinical trials, who were vaccinated between July and October 2020, and people who were vaccinated between December 2020 and March this year, when the product had already received authorization for emergency use.

According to Moderna, the number of

Covid-19 cases

is clearly higher in the first group, which would point to a progressive decrease in the immunity provided by the vaccine over time.

In a statement, the CEO of the firm, Stéphane Bancel, said that these conclusions "support the need for reinforcements to maintain high levels of protection."

"We hope these findings will be helpful as health authorities and regulators continue to analyze strategies to end this pandemic," Bancel said.

Both

Moderna

and

Pfizer

, the two companies with messenger RNA vaccines, have recently submitted data to US authorities to defend a third dose.

So far, booster doses are being used for people with a weakened immune system, while there is no decision on their use in the general population.
