A Journal of the Plague Year





New evidence from Germany is that the coronavirus is becoming less deadly. We have seen the death rate fall as the infection rate rises. We had thought this might have to do with more young people getting the virus. The German figures show this is not so: the death rate is falling quickly among older patients.

In other news, trials of the Oxford vaccine have resumed. The one patient who fell sick apparently had something unrelated to the vaccine.
