13 Sept 08:47 Key points summarised by AI

A Hong Kong study revealed that BioNTech vaccine recipients developed ten times more antibodies than those who received China's Sinovac.
Researchers indicate that this substantial difference in antibody concentration could lead to significant variations in overall vaccine effectiveness.
Despite the findings, experts still recommend Sinovac if other options are unavailable, stressing that any vaccination offers better protection than none.
The study suggests that 'alternative strategies,' like earlier booster shots, may be necessary to enhance protection for individuals vaccinated with Sinovac.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
