The attack in Vienna Austria has killed three people
and 15 are injured (7 critical) after a gun battle.  The police are searching for a group of armed people.  They say it is an Islamist terrorist attack.   The attackers were at six different locations.  The attacks were just before a new curfew to close bars and restaurants – there were many people just enjoying their last drinks in the centre of the city.
Trump is now trying to undermine the election saying that he will send in his lawyers if the result is not right (for him).  There are 98 million people who have already voted but today is the last day.  Meanwhile the virus is hitting new records and some hospitals are at breaking point which means that other operations have to stop because of the effort to treat people with the virus.  Trump ignores the problem.
Slovakia managed to test 3.5 million people in a few days.  They found 1% had the virus.  This could be a good way in future to control the virus but the difficult part is they have to be tested again a few days later as the negative test today still means that they could catch the virus a couple of days later.
Argentina has agreed to take 10 million doses of the Russian vaccine (Sputnik V) in December and January.  There are increased numbers of cases in the country but since this will be summer time in Argentina they will expect there to be fewer cases.  It is not clear that this vaccine has gone through all the proper trials and may not yet be approved by health agencies.
