2. Macroeconomic & Corporate News Kingdom sees stability in number of registered virus cases — Obeidat Health Minister Nathir Obeidat on Monday said that the recent epidemiological curve showed stability in the number of registered cases. During a joint press briefing held at the Prime Ministry, Obeidat said that the drop in the positive rate of COVID cases — confirmed cases to total COVID-19 tests conducted — below 20 per cent and the proximity between numbers of hospitalised and discharged patients are positive indicators of a stable COVID-19 curve. In regard to the awaited coronavirus vaccine, Obeidat pointed out that it will be optional and free of charge to all those residing in the Kingdom. He added that the distribution will conform to a comprehensive plan devised in partnership with the Jordanian Royal Medical Services and National Centre for Security and Crisis Management. The minister also stressed that the epidemiological situation remains critical and requires the public’s adherence to defence orders, wearing face masks and maintaining physical distancing. Speaking at the press briefing, Minister of State for Media Affairs Ali Al Ayed said there will be no comprehensive curfew other than that which is imposed on Fridays, until the end of 2020. Coronavirus crisis, global recession dominate G-20 'virtual' summit Saudi Arabia’s King Salman Bin Abdulaziz opened the G-20 summit on Saturday in a first for an Arab nation, with the virtual forum dominated by efforts to tackle the coronavirus crisis and the worst global recession in decades. G-20 leaders popped up in multiple windows across a flickering screen, in a high-stakes webinar held amid the raging pandemic. The leaders are huddling online for the two-day "gathering" as international efforts intensify for a large-scale rollout of coronavirus vaccines after a breakthrough in trials, and as calls grow for G-20 nations to plug a $4.5-billion funding shortfall. "Although we are optimistic about the progress made in developing vaccines, therapeutics and diagnostics tools for COVID-19, we must work to create the conditions for affordable and equitable access to these tools for all people," said King Salman, the summit's host. * Source: Jordan Times, Zawya Disclaimer Awraq Investments and its affiliates obtain information from sources they believe to be reliable, but do not warrant its accuracy or fitness for a particular purpose, and disclaim for themselves and their information providers all liability arising from the use.
