| - Here are the latest developments in the coronavirus crisis: US President-elect Joe Biden and his wife Jill will be vaccinated against Covid-19 on Monday in public, as the Democrat seeks to build confidence in the treatment. Outgoing President Donald Trump is not planning to take a vaccine soon, but Vice President Mike Pence receives a shot on live television Friday as the country prepares to approve a second vaccine produced by Moderna. Slovak Prime Minister Igor Matovic tests positive for Covid-19, a week after he attended an EU summit in Brussels at which French President Emmanuel Macron might have also caught the virus. Macron, 42, says in a video message he is "doing well", but acknowledges that he had to slow down his activities due to ongoing coronavirus symptoms, which include "tiredness, headaches, dry cough". The number of coronavirus deaths in France tops 60,000, after health authorities voice concern about a "worrying" resurgence in the virus ahead of the Christmas and New Year holidays. Austria will enter its third coronavirus lockdown between December 26 and January 24, but those who take part in a planned series of mass tests between January 15 and 17 will be allowed more freedom. Mexico City and the neighbouring State of Mexico suspend non-essential activities from the weekend, with only activities such as the sale of food, energy, transport, manufacturing and financial services allowed. Sweden recommends that masks be worn on public transport at peak times, having previously resisted their use in the fight against Covid-19 except in healthcare. Poorer countries will begin to receive coronavirus vaccines early next year, with almost two billion doses secured by a facility created to ensure fair access, the World Health Organization says. At least 1,662,792 people have died since the outbreak emerged in China last December, according to a tally from official sources compiled by AFP on Friday. Most new deaths were in the US with 3,249, followed by Brazil with 1,092 and Mexico with 718. The US is also the worst-affected country with 310,792 deaths followed by Brazil with 184,827, India with 144,789, Mexico with 116,487 and Italy with 67,220 deaths. AFP's specialised database shows a sharp spike in infections in Africa and Latin America. US lawmakers hammer out the final details of a major coronavirus package aimed at providing emergency relief for millions of struggling families and businesses amid signs of a worsening economy. Brazilian far-right President Jair Bolsonaro launches an attack on coronavirus vaccines, even suggesting that the one developed by Pfizer-BioNTech could turn people into crocodiles or bearded ladies. Berlin's international film festival -- Europe's first major cinema showcase of the year -- postpones its February 2021 edition to a strictly digital event for industry players in March. Qatar inaugurates its latest stadium for the 2022 football World Cup with a half-capacity 20,000-strong crowd who had all been tested beforehand. bur-fg-jmy/wai
