The Paris-Bercy indoor meeting will not take place as planned on January 22 because of the public gauge linked to Covid-19 and a replacement date has not yet been found, said the French Federation of athletics Tuesday January 11. The public is limited to 2,000 people under the gauge put in place for three weeks since January 3 by the government, as part of the measures to curb the Covid-19 epidemic. The federation has not yet found a replacement date, knowing that the French Championships will take place on February 26 and 27 in Miramas (Bouches-du-Rhône). .

Honor Magic V: another brand that reaches the arena of folding!
As I had said at the beginning of 2022, more folding will appear on the scene from brands other than Samsung, Motorola, Microsoft and Huawei, which are the ones that have shown that form factor so far.
And… indeed, it is happening! First was Oppo that has managed to surprise many with its Find N And now it is Honor with its Magic V that comes loaded with news.
The Honor Magic V is the brand’s first folding 5G smartphone that, inside, has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. This processor, in addition to optimizing energy consumption, promises transmission speeds of up to 10 Gbps in 5G and multiple Gbps on Wi-Fi 6 & 6E. According to Qualcomm, the performance at the AI level is optimized to offer an “elite” experience (whatever that means) in games (will have to be put to the test to attest to those claims).
Like the Oppo Find N, Honor Magic V has an advanced floating “waterdrop” hinge so that the crease is not as visible when unfolding the 7.9 “screen (quite large). The exterior screen has dimensions similar to those of traditional 6.45 ″ smartphones, in such a way that, everything seems to indicate that it will be possible to produce easily, even when the smartphone is folded.
The screen specifications of the Honor Magic V
At the camera level, the Honor Magic V exhibits a triple exterior module, with a 50 MP main camera with the equivalent of a 23 mm lens, a 50 MP wide angle with the equivalent of a 13 lens and a sensor of 50 MP with color spectrum. For lovers of “selfies”, this new smartphone will have the equivalent of 42 MP front cameras.
The cameras of the Honor Magic V
At the level of other specifications of interest regarding the Honor Magic V, there are the following:
- Version of 12 of RAM and 256/512 of ROM,
- 4,750mAh battery with 66W fast charge to go from 0 to 50% in regarding 15 mins,
- Approximate price of USD $ 1,570 for the 256 GB version of ROM and USD $ 1,725 for the 512 version of ROM, although it is not yet very clear if the Honor Magic V will be marketed outside of China.
As you can guess, the fight in the field of folding smartphones will become more and more intense!
I look forward to testing the Honor Magic V in order to tell you more regarding the experience!
Ukrainian president calls for international summit to end conflict
Volodymyr Zelensky
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called on Tuesday for a four-way summit with Moscow, Paris and Berlin to “end the conflict” with pro-Russian separatists in the east of his country.
“The time has come to reach an agreement that ends the conflict, and we are ready to take the necessary decisions during a new summit,” Zelensky said in a statement, when he received advisers to the French president and the German chancellor, according to “AFP.”
Negotiations are currently underway between Russia and the United States over the Ukraine crisis, to be followed by negotiations between Moscow and NATO.
Zelensky’s statement comes amid an escalating crisis on the country’s eastern border, with Russia massing tens of thousands of troops.
While Kiev asserts that Moscow wants to invade its lands, the latter denies this and asserts that its moves do not threaten anyone.
Ukrainian forces have been fighting since 2014 with Russian-backed rebels in the Donbass region, and successive ceasefire agreements have not succeeded in restoring calm to the region.
These events began with marches in Donbass following the massive protests in Ukraine in 2014, and quickly turned into armed confrontations between separatist forces and the Ukrainian army.
The stage is critical and complex… a famous virologist warns of two pandemics!
Arabic wrote:
Well-known physicist Roberto Battiston, dubbed a “viral mathematician”, alerted the public to the belief that the delta mutate was no longer valid; Noting that there is no evidence of this, “but it is likely that this mutant is the main responsible for the hospitalizations and treatment in the intensive care units, and the deaths that we are currently witnessing.”“.
He said: “We are now in what looks like a confrontation once morest two different pandemics: one caused by the delta mutant and the second caused by the omicron mutant that causes less serious infections, but its unprecedented speed of transmission may lead us to a virtual complete closure.“.
The specialist, who for years was a consultant to the World Health Organization, and is currently the coordinator of the Italian epidemiological observatory, stressed that effectively addressing this complex stage of the health crisis requires a clear distinction between infections with both of these mutations, according to what was reported by the newspaper, “Asharq Al-Awsat”.
Battiston explained that the tyranny of the new mutate does not mean that the delta mutator has disappeared or is on the way to disappearing; He pointed out that recent data indicate that Delta still causes 20% of new infections, and continues to apply in all European countries, and that it is behind most of the serious injuries and deaths. He warned that if urgent measures were not taken to enhance the capabilities of emergency departments in hospitals, health systems would collapse within a month at the latest. Because there are a large number of Europeans who have not yet received the vaccine.
The specialist stressed the risks of easing prevention measures and restrictions on movement; Arguing that the Omicron mutant does not cause serious infections, “because we are not facing one enemy; Until now”.
It should be noted that the identification of the mutant from which the infection arises is done through the genetic sequence of the virus, which is a sophisticated technique applied by European countries at a very low rate; Compared to the development of the pandemic, “we are moving in the dark, and using the same weapons once morest very different targets,” says Battiston, who also calls for attention to the containment of the delta mutant due to its dangerous repercussions on non-vaccinators. He cautions that returning to the reopening of schools would activate its validity; Especially among children, what pushes the crisis to a critical and very complex stage in terms of logistics, with the rapid and massive spread of “Omicron”“.
Simultaneously, a high-ranking British expert said that the emergence of the Omicron variable may be the first ray of light “towards coexistence with Corona” as an endemic disease..
According to “The Guardian” newspaper,” The Guardian In Britain, Mike Tildesley, a member of the British Scientific Group for Epidemic Influenza Modeling, said: (SPI – M) And Professor of Infectious Diseases at the University of Warwick: “Omicron might be an indication that corona may turn into a less severe virus in the future similar to the common cold.”“.
He continued, “We have not reached this point yet, but it is possible that the omicron variable is the first ray of light towards coexistence with corona. It is, of course, more transmissible than the delta variable, which is worrying, but it is much less dangerous.” He added, “We hope that by spring we will be able to coexist with Corona as an endemic disease and that those with weak immunity will be safe from it.”
Although many Omicron patients continue to be admitted to British hospitals, Tyldesley stressed that there is a positive side to this, which is that “the hospital stay appears to be on average shorter, and symptoms appear to be milder now.”“.
