 The cyber-security firm that identified the large-scale hacking of US government agencies says it "genuinely impacted" around 50 organisations. Kevin Mandia, CEO of FireEye, said that while some 18,000 organisations had the malicious code in their networks, it was the 50 who suffered major breaches. The US Treasury and departments of homeland security, state and defence are known to have been targeted. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has blamed Russia for the hack. So too have the chairs of the Senate and House of Representatives' intelligence committees. However, President Trump cast doubt on Russia's role in two tweets on Saturday, hinting instead at Chinese involvement. ■   Five Russian hacks that transformed US cyber-security ■   SolarWinds: Why the Sunburst hack is so serious ■   Hacking the heart of the US government Mr Mandia told CBS News that the cyber attack "was very consistent" with what US officials know about the work of Russia's foreign...

He paid tribute to front-line workers who will be the first to receive jabs.  India has recorded the second-highest number of Covid-19 infections in the world after the United States.  Millions of doses of two approved vaccines - Covishield and Covaxin - were shipped across the country in the days leading up to the start of the drive.  "We are launching the world's biggest vaccination drive and it shows the world our capability," Mr Modi, said, addressing the country on Saturday morning.  He added that India was well prepared to vaccinate its population with the help of an app, which would help the government track the drive and ensure that nobody was left out. Mr Modi spoke at length about doctors, nurses and oth...

The cases are already beginning to emerge. When 85-year-old Colin Horseman was admitted to Doncaster Royal Infirmary in late December, it was for a suspected kidney infection. But not long afterwards he caught Covid-19 – at the time, roughly  one in four people in hospital  with the virus had acquired it there. He developed severe symptoms and was eventually put on a ventilator. A few days later, he died. At first glance, Horseman's situation may seem fairly typical, though no less tragic for it. After all, at least 84,767 people have now succumbed to the disease in the UK alone at the time of writing. But, as his son recently explained in a  local newspaper , less than three weeks earlier he had been among the first people in the world to receive the initial dose of a Covid-19 vaccine – the Pfizer-BioNTech version. He was due to receive the second dose two days prior to his death. In fact, most vaccines require booster doses to work. Take the MMR – measles, mumps and rub...
