The Jag! After 2016

The last time we took stock of the output there we had just finished the fifth part in our series on electoral reform. Since then we've added four more pieces in that thread and thirty-nine other posts till now. There were no articles last year though, the first time since 2016 but it's not the longest drought period on that blog. I have a good excuse. 2024 looks better with already two and both of them are in kreol. The first one was an analysis on six pledges of the LP/MMM/PMSD alliance – it uses four of our clips – and the last on why six titans of the Mauritius Labour Party are unlikely to vote for Navin Ramgoolam in 2024 or for the other two main parties for that matter.

Of course Covid-19 happened during this 7-year period which explains why we had pieces on the vaccination status and jabs to buy in 2022 after we had become less ignorant about viruses. That was also the year of the 75th anniversary of India's independence. We published one piece on the Gentle Elephant when it was Midnight on August 15 in Bharat. Two days earlier we wrote a post on faith which started with a tribute to an extraordinary actor that said goodbye during the pandemic. We also investigated who's been the longest-serving General Secretary of the MLP. 

Other pieces included celebrating the 90th anniversary of a maverick, the Pope's visit, ideas to roll back drug use, an interesting piece on transport policy, comments on the offerings in the 2019 general election, fact-checking a toxic politician, decolonisation, the Central Water Authority, the World Bank and economic miracles. Plus one on the importance of the national currency in determining the wealth of a nation and another on an infamous anniversary. And more.

That's a lot of good stuff to read don't you think?

The No. 1 Reason Mauritius is in Such A Deep Mess

Putting the Ukrainian Crisis in Perspective

Mauritian Data Confirms Sputnik Offers Best Protection Against Covid Death

As of early last November no one who was jabbed with the Russian vaccine had succumbed to Covid. And as of a few weeks back it also had the smallest rate of side effects – twice better than the next one and 14X better than AstraZeneca. This is something which has been found elsewhere. And now there’s even a nasal spray vaccine which will reduce infections and transmissions. The Mauritian authorities should buy it. 

Sputnik V Generated Almost 14 Times Less Side Effects Than AstraZeneca

That’s what was recently revealed in Parliament. Indeed more than 1/2 of a percent of those who took the India-manufactured version of the British jab here experienced side effects. No data was published for Pfizer and Moderna.

Why Sputnik Didn’t Roll Out Its Delta-specific Jab

Because the original 2-dose mix-and-match version performed well against the deadliest Covid variant so far. Will it have one for the Omicron variant? It could by the end of next month – and have an initial 100m dose ready – but this will depend on how the first version holds up against the milder but way more infectious virus. Results from several studies in Hungary and Italy have shown that the Russian vaccine offers better protection against Omicron than Pfizer and is the best jab in preventing deaths and the second best in avoiding infections. It may also help us avoid 3-4 boosters a-year which would overload our immune system.

Mauritius Hits A Covid-19 Milestone

Worse Here, Worst Likely On Its Way

Next Paradigm Shift For Mauritius?

Curbs Needed Now

There’s been at least 80 Covid deaths so far in Mauritius this October. That’s close to half of the 166 official fatalities since the first one in March 2020. And as the chart shows we believe the real 7-day average of new cases to be almost sixteen times higher. At a minimum alphabetical shopping, daily publication of the number of PCR tests done should be restored immediately and a curfew initiated. More stringent measures should be considered after a better measurement of virus transmission tell us what’s going on. This, along with less opacity and not more, should save many lives and put us on a much smoother path to endemicity. As will a drastic reduction of non-essential interactions and masking up. 

Opacity Doesn’t Bother Covid One Bit
