       1. Rwanda deportation flight blocked by European judges

       The first flight to deport migrants to Rwanda was halted after European human rights judges made an 11th-hour intervention.

       2. Don’t travel by train on strike days, commuters urged

       Commuters will be told not to travel by train next week as the entire network is set to be crippled by the largest strike in more than 30 years.

       5. Catching omicron ‘does not protect you against future infection’

       Throughout the pandemic, studies have shown that a previous infection provides immunity against catching Covid again, as well as often protecting against other variants.

       But new research has found that there is virtually no extra immunity boost from getting omicron, leaving people at risk of being reinfected from the strain. Read the full story.
