And so, another working week will soon draw to a close. Not a moment too soon, yes? This is, you may recall, our treasured signal to daydream about weekend plans. Our agenda is still getting sorted out, but we hope to catch up on our reading and hang with our oh-so-busy short person. And what about you? Normally, we would suggest you enjoy the great outdoors, but given the heat, we hesitate to do so, unless you have a Jetsons-like portable air conditioner you can strap on your back. With that in mind, this may be an opportunity to enjoy a flick or two on the telly, meet a fun friend at a whiskey bar, or simply take a few naps. Well, whatever you do, have a grand time.

But the company has supplied the vaccine to several EU countries during the current monkeypox outbreak for off-label use. The recommendation from the EMA is expected to be referred to the European Commission for final approval shortly.
