Spike in Covid cases from  Canada to Asia

Despite current vaccine drives, infection spikes have led to unpopular new restrictions enforced from Canada to Europe, and from South America to Asia reports Aljazeera.

Countries such as Belgium and France were scrambling to deal with overwhelmed hospitals and increasing infection rates, while India’s Maharashtra also ramped up restrictions after nationwide daily infections exceeded 100,000 for the first time.

Meanwhile, Canada was forced to tighten restrictions in several provinces after cases crossed the threshold of one million.
