Des millions de surpayés pour des offres mobiles sur des téléphones qu’ils ont déjà payés

Published

on

Selon Virgin Media O2, des millions de ménages surpayent leurs offres de téléphonie mobile de 530 millions de livres sterling par an.

La société de télécommunications a déclaré que 93% des Britanniques n’ont aucune idée que leur fournisseur peut continuer à les facturer pour un appareil qu’ils ont déjà payé.

Ce problème touche plus durement les personnes âgées et les personnes aux revenus les plus faibles, a déclaré Virgin Media O2.

Le problème est que les consommateurs ignorent souvent comment fonctionnent deux parties de leur facture de téléphonie mobile : les paiements de leur appareil et le coût du temps d’antenne.

Certaines entreprises de téléphonie mobile regroupent les deux composants, tandis que d’autres les facturent séparément.

Ni l’un ni l’autre n’est un problème jusqu’à ce que l’appareil soit remboursé – normalement dans les 12 à 24 mois.

Après ce point, ce qui se passe dépend de votre accord.

Si vous payez votre appareil et le temps d’antenne séparément, vous êtes libre de ne payer que le temps d’antenne – ce qui réduit votre facture – ou votre fournisseur peut automatiquement vous faire passer à un tarif de temps d’antenne uniquement.

Mais si votre tarif regroupe votre appareil et les paiements de temps d’antenne, vous risquez de devoir payer pour un combiné que vous possédez déjà.

La plupart des gens qui paient trop le font pendant six mois au maximum, mais beaucoup le font pendant des années.

Cependant, les offres groupées peuvent être initialement moins chères que les tarifs fractionnés, ce qui oblige les consommateurs à vérifier leurs paiements mensuels une fois leur appareil remboursé.

Virgin Media O2 a déclaré que cela affecte des millions de personnes chaque année.

Selon l’organisme de bienfaisance Citizens Advice, 58 % de la facture mensuelle moyenne de téléphonie mobile correspond au coût de l’appareil.

En d’autres termes, une fois l’appareil remboursé, plus de la moitié de la facture de téléphone de millions de Britanniques est une forme de surfacturation.

coût de la vie

Gareth Turpin, directeur commercial de Virgin Media O2, a déclaré: “Nous appelons le temps sur ce problème d’un demi-milliard de livres et exhortons l’industrie à intervenir pour les consommateurs et à mettre fin à l’escroquerie des smartphones.

“Pendant une crise du coût de la vie, et avec les ménages plus âgés et à faible revenu les plus à risque, je demande aux autres opérateurs de faire ce qu’il faut.”

En 2020, le régulateur Ofcom a introduit de nouvelles règles ordonnant aux fournisseurs de téléphonie mobile, de haut débit et de télévision payante d’avertir les clients de la fin de leur contrat actuel et de ce qu’ils pourraient économiser en signant un nouvel accord.

Ernest Doku, expert en télécommunications sur le site Web de comparaison Uswitch.com, a déclaré: « Les recherches de VMO2 sur les surpaiements des combinés mettent en évidence un problème dont nous parlons depuis de nombreuses années et qui est maintenant plus important que jamais.

«Trop de gens paient encore trop leurs factures de téléphonie mobile, et il est très préoccupant que les personnes âgées et les personnes aux revenus les plus faibles soient touchées de manière disproportionnée.

“Davantage de travail doit être fait pour sensibiliser les consommateurs aux contrats qu’ils signent et, surtout, à leurs options lorsqu’ils arrivent à expiration.”

Un porte-parole de BT, qui possède également EE, a déclaré: “Nous trouvons que ces affirmations de Virgin Media O2 sont trompeuses et inutiles – conçues pour faire la une des journaux, à un moment où les consommateurs ont besoin de savoir que l’industrie est claire et simple.”

Les clients du temps d’antenne uniquement punis par des hausses de prix

Les utilisateurs de téléphones portables ont dû faire face à de fortes augmentations de prix allant jusqu’à 17,3 % cette année, même pour les offres de temps d’antenne uniquement.

Une bizarrerie du nombre d’offres haut débit et téléphoniques qui ont fonctionné depuis 2021 est que les prix peuvent être augmentés en cours de contrat.

Plus tôt cette année, l’Ofcom a déclaré que les consommateurs ne comprenaient pas le fonctionnement de ces augmentations de prix et qu’il pourrait devoir réprimer les hausses de prix du mobile et du haut débit.

Cependant, Ofcom ne cherche pas à rendre ces offres moins chères – juste pour s’assurer que les consommateurs comprennent comment fonctionne la tarification.

Comment économiser de l’argent sur votre forfait de téléphonie mobile

1) Déterminez ce dont vous avez VRAIMENT besoin

Ces offres varient en fonction de ce que vous obtenez et de ce qui vous est facturé. Si vous êtes en fin de contrat, ou si vous souhaitez souscrire votre premier contrat, réfléchissez à ce dont vous avez vraiment besoin d’un contrat de téléphonie mobile.

Si vous avez payé votre combiné et êtes heureux de le garder, vérifiez que vous n’êtes pas coincé à payer un tarif plus élevé que nécessaire.

2) Envisagez une offre Sim uniquement

Advertisement

Si vous possédez déjà un combiné de téléphone portable ou si vous pouvez en obtenir un à moindre coût, vous pourrez peut-être économiser de l’argent avec une offre Sim uniquement bon marché.

En effet, la plupart des contrats de téléphonie mobile vous vendent deux choses : le téléphone et le coût de son utilisation. Si vous avez déjà le téléphone, vous n’avez qu’à vous soucier du coût des appels, des SMS et des données.

Uswitch a déclaré que les clients peuvent économiser jusqu’à 321 £ en souscrivant une offre Sim uniquement.

Les utilisateurs devront s’assurer qu’ils ne dépassent pas les limites indiquées lors de leur inscription. S’ils le font, des frais supplémentaires pourraient s’appliquer – et ceux-ci peuvent être coûteux.

3) Envisagez un téléphone remis à neuf

Advertisement

Au lieu d’acheter un tout nouveau téléphone, voyez s’il y en a un remis à neuf qui répond à vos besoins. Ce sont des téléphones qui ont été révisés par des experts pour remplacer les pièces cassées et améliorer leur fonctionnement.

Ils coûtent beaucoup moins cher que les nouveaux téléphones. Par exemple, un iPhone 13 coûte environ 600 à 700 £ pour un nouveau combiné, tandis que les modèles remis à neuf coûtent environ 500 £.

Ces économies sont encore plus importantes pour les téléphones moins demandés ou les modèles plus anciens.

La plupart des téléphones Samsung Galaxy sortis au cours des cinq dernières années ne coûtent normalement pas plus de 200 £ lorsqu’ils sont remis à neuf, par exemple, mais coûtent jusqu’à quatre fois ce montant neuf.

4) Soyez prêt à marchander

Advertisement

Lorsque votre contrat actuel arrive à expiration, marchander avec votre fournisseur peut vous faire économiser de l’argent.

Faites d’abord vos recherches et préparez-vous avec certaines des meilleures offres que vous avez trouvées ailleurs. Mentionnez tous les problèmes que vous avez rencontrés avec votre fournisseur actuel, car cela peut vous donner un avantage dans toutes les négociations.

Si vous n’êtes pas satisfait de l’offre que votre fournisseur vous fait, dites que vous êtes prêt à partir. Cela peut conduire à de meilleures offres apparaissant miraculeusement.

5) Soyez prêt à changer

Si vous ne parvenez pas à obtenir une offre qui vous convient de la part de votre fournisseur actuel, envisagez de changer de fournisseur.

6) Vérifiez si vous pouvez bénéficier d’un tarif social

Il existe trois tarifs sociaux pour les clients de téléphonie mobile. Les offres réservées aux Sims peuvent être moins chères, donc même si vous êtes éligible à un tarif social, assurez-vous de les examiner également.

Cinq tarifs sociaux les moins chers
Fournisseur Emballer Prix ​​par mois Durée du contrat en mois Vitesse Frais d’installation

Ukraine blocks ex-president from leaving country amid alleged plan to meet pro-Putin Hungary’s Orban

Published

on

Ukraine’s security service said on Saturday it had prevented former president Petro Poroshenko from leaving the country on grounds that Russia planned to exploit a planned meeting with Hungary’s prime minister to hurt Ukrainian interests.

Issued on:

2 min

Poroshenko’s political party, European Solidarity, said the former president had scheduled only meetings in Poland and the United States and warned the SBU security service against becoming involved in politics.

Poroshenko was turned away at a border post on Friday.

The SBU said he had planned to meet Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who maintains ties with Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin and opposes opening talks on European Union membership with Ukraine.

An SBU statement said Russia was preparing a series of “provocations” to discredit Ukraine among its foreign allies as the war against Russia stretches beyond 21 months.

It provided no evidence to support the allegations.

Of the possible meeting with Orban, the SBU said: “Russia planned to use this meeting (like other ‘working meetings with … representative of countries voicing pro-Russian narratives) in psychological operations against Ukraine.”

The SBU said Orban “systematically holds an anti-Ukrainian position”, was a “friend of Putin” and sought the removal of sanctions imposed on Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine.

Orban, who is open about his friendly ties with Putin, opposes the start of EU membership talks with Ukraine, to be considered at the bloc’s forthcoming summit. He called this week for the creation instead of a “strategic partnership” with Kyiv.

Orban has frequently been at odds with Zelenskiy on several issues related to Ukraine’s EU membership bid. European Solidarity, in its statement, called for dialogue with Orban who, it said, had a veto right over accession talks.

Under martial law, Ukrainian officials must secure approval to travel abroad. Parliament’s deputy speaker, Oleksandr Korniyenko, said Poroshenko’s permission had been cancelled after he had received a letter, which he could not comment on.

Zelenskiy’s office has made no comment and Orban’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Poroshenko, president from 2014 to 2019, accused Zelenskiy’s administration on Friday of cancelling the permission and playing politics ahead of elections.

The dispute comes amid slowly growing tensions between government and opposition – mostly over internal matters such as budgets and appointments – in contrast to the near-total unity at the start of the conflict.

Zelenskiy and Poroshenko fought a bitter, often deeply personal battle in the 2019 presidential election, when Zelenskiy defeated the incumbent Poroshenko in a landslide.

Zelenskiy said last month that it was “not the time” to hold a presidential election, which under normal circumstances would be scheduled for March 2024 but is prohibited under martial law.

United trying to counter-attack (0-0)

That’s a lot better from Rashford as he wins a race to the ball and tries to play through Garnacho who is outmuscled during a challenge. United have a free kick in a decent position.

Rashford just can’t get going (0-0)

Marcus Rashford is struggling so far with nothing seeming to work for the England international. He is being marshalled out of the game by Newcastle’s defenders so far but keeps trying to find a way through.

Good tracking back by Fernandes (0-0)

Newcastle break and have a 3v3 against United’s defence and it’s Fernandes to the rescue as he makes a crucial interception. That was very much required.

Huge save by Onana denies Almiron (0-0)

Onana gets down well to react to Almiron’s shot and is helped out by his defenders who clear the remaining danger. That will give him some confidence while the Newcastle fans boo.

Great defending from Luke Shaw (0-0)

Shaw has to deal with Isak who shows quick-feet in the box, but the United defender wins the duel.

United beginning to find their feet (0-0)

It’s better from the visitors as United work the ball around the edge of the box well through Garnacho and Fernandes, with Wan-Bissaka also attempting a shot from range. Good game developing.

Garnacho forces a save from Pope (0-0)

Fernandes plays a beautiful ball for Garnacho to chase and he does just that before firing a shot on target that Pope saves well with his feet.

Dalot almost scores an own goal (0-0)

What is going on there from Diogo Dalot as he looks to pass back to Onana but kicks it up against his arm with the ball then heading towards goal before he clears at the second time of asking. This start won’t being giving United supporters much confidence.

Almiron creating early problems (0-0)

Newcastle’s passing has been supremely accurate so far and Miguel Almiron is making a nuisance of himself that United are struggling to deal with Wan-Bissaka erratically clears a cross while Luke Shaw isn’t looking comfortable at centre-back so far.

Newcastle are knocking at the door (0-0)

Livramento wins Newcastle their first corner of the match after skinning Marcus Rashford on the wing before seeing his cross cleared behind by Scott McTominay. The set-piece delivery is good, Onana flaps at it and Dalot eventually clears.

United defending nervously (0-0)

The hosts are continuing to work the ball around the pitch well and United’s defence is struggling to cope. It’s a bit last-ditch from the likes of Diogo Dalot, but there is space to counter-attack.

Newcastle looking to build pressure (0-0)

Newcastle are trying to get everyone a touch on the ball as they work around both halves in the opening exchanges. United’s defence has to be alert to the early ball in behind.

KICK OFF: Newcastle get us underway (0-0)

We’re underway in the north east!

Here come the players!

The teams are ready to go and are walking out into what is an electric St James’ Park, the early task for United is to make sure they don’t let Newcastle get off to a start that further boosts this wild home support.

Kick-off is just moments away and we will be bringing you all the key moments from the match.

The teenagers taking centre stage

There are so many narratives to go over heading into tongiht’s game, and what a moment this is for two teenagers, Newcastle’s Lewis Miley and Man United’s Kobbie Mainoo.

17-year-old Miley is making his fourth consecutive start for Eddie Howe’s side having impressend in recent performances, while Mainoo is making just his second Premier League start.

This will be a huge midfield battle to keep an eye on, both probably met each other in academy matches and now they are doing it in the English top-flight. This game can be won or lost in midfield and both with bee pivotal to their team’s success tonight.

Erik ten Hag expects ‘different’ Newcastle test

Erik ten Hag has just been speaking pre-match and explained Newcastle will provide his Man United side with a ‘different’ test than what they experienced midweek in the Champions League.

Victory for his team today would be a huge welcome boost to travelling supporters and he’s decided to start Luke Shaw at centre-back tonight in a tactical adjustment.

‘It’s a different game when you play Premier League and especially Newcastle. We have to adjust and we will do,’ Ten Hag told TNT Sports.

‘It’s a tactical change [Shaw] but also rotation part of it, we have to load the management of all players but for Luke at centre-half he has to run less.’

Tonight’s post-game permutations

Neither of tonight’s teams will be able to force their way into the Premier League’s top four with three points tonight, but they can move very close!

United are currently sixth in the league standings with 24 points while Newcastle are a point and position worse off.

A win for the home side would see them leapfrog Erik ten Hag’s side and into fifth, while the visitors can move just a point shy of Spurs and only six adrift of leaders Arsenal.

It’s tight at the top and both teams are desperate to get there.

Anthony Gordon insists Newcastle won’t harness a ‘victim mindset’

Newcastle supporters might still be irked from their midweek Champions League draw against PSG that saw them denied a famous win via a late penalty that was awarded by VAR.

The former Everton forward explained Newcastle feel good heading into tonight’s clash and explained there is no grieving over their performance in Europe.

‘I think we feel quite well and can take pride in how we performed. We deserved to win and don’t want to have a victim mindset when things go wrong,’ Gordon told TNT Sports.

There were very few smiles amongst United’s ranks as they arrived at the stadium and you wonder what type of reaction they will produce after their erroneous midweek trip to Turkey.

Fortunately, United’s Premier League form has been tight, but Newcastle away is one of the toughest tests in the top-flight.

Ten Hag keeps faith in Andre Onana

He backed him in Friday’s pre-match press conference and has followed up his words of encouragment with action as Erik ten Hag picks Andre Onana to start tonight.

The United goalkeeper is under pressure after a midweek howler in the Champions League, but is strangely also one of the top three performing keepers in the Premier League by recent statistics.

Onana will need to be at his best tonight against a fearsome Newcastle attack and you feel anymore errors could give Ten Hag a seriously tough choice to make over whether he is the club’s best shot-stopper.

MANCHESTER UNITED TEAM NEWS

Kobbie Mainoo starts his second consecutive Premier League start in midfield for Manchester United after starring in their impressive 3-0 win over Everton last weekend.

Anthony Martial is a surprise start in attack with Rasmus Hojlund instead placed on the bench by Erik ten Hag.

Alejandro Garnacho keeps his place on the left-wing for United having scored twice in his last two appearances including a wondergoal against Everton, meaning Marcus Rashford is likely to start on the right-wing for United.

Why I want to meet my dad, Ian Huntley: It was the horrific crime that left Britain reeling – two 10-year-old friends Holly and Jessica abducted and murdered by their school caretaker… and now his daughter has made a remarkable request

Published

on

Meeting your father for the first time in adulthood would be, for anyone, fraught with anxieties and uncertainties.

Will I like him? Will he like me? Will he reject me? The questions are legion.

To Samantha Bryan, however, these considerations matter not. As she revealed in an interview with The Mail on Sunday seven years ago, Samantha’s biological father is Ian Huntley, whose murder of schoolgirls Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman in Soham, Cambridgeshire in 2002 horrified the nation.

Samantha, 25, has no desire to get to know her father or like him or be liked in return. To her, he is a monster. But today she is explaining why she wants to meet him, just the once. Foremost, because she is seeking answers for the sake of Holly and Jessica’s parents. And also to bury her own demons.

She is hoping Huntley will finally give her not the deeply harrowing but still-sanitised version of events he served up at his trial, but the truth about what really happened to the ten-year-old friends, whose image, in red Manchester United jerseys, became imprinted on the nation’s consciousness 21 years ago.

Samantha’s mother Katie (pictured with Huntley) had left Huntley while still pregnant with her daughter, after being subjected to an appalling catalogue of abuse 

She has written a powerful letter to her father at HMP Frankland in Durham, where he is midway through a 40-year sentence. ‘If my existence means anything to you, I’m pleading with you to finally reveal the whole truth about the murders of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman,’ she told him. ‘It’s time that everyone was given some peace and closure.’

In court, Huntley, now 49, said both girls died accidentally, claiming Holly drowned in his bath and that he inadvertently suffocated Jessica while trying to stifle her screams. But in 2018 he confessed to deliberately killing Jessica to stop her from raising the alarm. He still insists Holly’s death was an accident.

In her mind’s eye, Samantha has already conjured up their encounter: entering the room, pulling up a chair, registering his every facial movement, hearing his voice, studying his hands – the hands that ended the lives of two children. It makes her feel sick. Steeling herself, she knows she will have to draw deeply on her reserves of courage. She hopes he will too.

Time, she feels, is against her. She fears he may take his secrets to the grave after suffering health problems and being subject to violent attacks in jail. He has also attempted suicide.

‘I’m begging him to find the courage to finally tell the truth,’ she says. ‘I have asked to meet face-to-face so he can tell me in his own words.’

She first discovered that Huntley was her father when she was 14 – by an extraordinary quirk of chance. She was asked to work on a school project on murderers – she was given Huntley to research – and it was while looking online that she saw an image of herself.

She said: ‘I clicked on it and recognised the dress I was wearing and remembered that day. The story said I was Ian Huntley’s daughter. It was like being thumped in the chest. I began to shake, I couldn’t stop the tears. I ran out of class, home to my mother and she confirmed it was the truth. But she told me she would never let him harm me and he would never get out.’

Even more distressing was learning of how Huntley subjected her mother Katie – who fell pregnant with Samantha aged just 15 – to terrifying violence before making her pregnant. They split when Samantha was born and she remarried.

Since her discovery, nearly every aspect of Samantha’s life has been poisoned by the Soham murders.

‘I’ve undergone counselling and it has impacted everything from my jobs to relationships,’ she says. ‘I have suffered constant nightmares. People still stop me in the street and say, “Your father is a monster” or “I know who your dad is”, so by meeting him I have nothing to lose.

‘The main comment that I used to get was, “the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” which has always cut very deeply because I am the absolute opposite. When I was younger I worried that everyone would think that and I would become isolated. Even with relationships, I’ve had people leave me and make comments about him [Huntley] and my connection to him. It was hard.

‘From the moment I discovered the connection he has become a bogeyman, like the Yorkshire Ripper or Fred West.’

Samantha, who is single, lives in Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire, and is training to be an administrator. She says she wants to ‘know for myself’ if her father feels any remorse. ‘I want him to tell the truth, so I can pass that on to the families of Holly and Jessica as they are very much on my mind.

‘Knowing their families have never been given the truth causes me profound sadness, I think about it far more than I should.

‘I hope that he will find it within his heart to open up. I want to know what he’d say when I sit in front of him, to be given that chance.

‘Nothing can ever change what has happened. I cannot think in terms of forgiveness. How can anyone forgive him?’

How much solace a full and frank confession would bring the parents of the two girls is hard to gauge. In a 2003 interview with the MoS, Holly’s parents Kevin and Nicola Wells said his cowardly refusal to tell the truth had left them in a never-ending torment of uncertainty as to what really happened in their daughter’s final minutes. They had many questions, the kind which – unanswered – can eat away at one’s soul.

‘Did he try to imprison one or both?’ said Kevin. ‘Did he sexually assault one and cause a scuffle: both Holly and Jessica would have gone to the other’s rescue – they were fierce and confident little girls.’

At the time Kevin reached this conclusion: ‘All these things we can never know because only one person is sure and I will never, ever believe a word that cold, calculating pervert utters. He took our daughter from us and lied and lied and lied.’

Samantha was just four years old when Huntley killed Holly and Jessica. They had been at a family barbecue at Holly’s home on August 4, 2002, wearing matching football shirts, before walking to a nearby shop for sweets. Then they vanished.

For 13 days their frantic parents prayed and police launched one of the biggest inquiries ever mounted. Thousands searched for the girls and Soham became a sombre, haunted town.

Throughout, Huntley, a caretaker at the girls’ school, and his partner, their teaching assistant Maxine Carr, gave endless media interviews appealing for the safe return of ‘two of the brightest, loveliest little girls in the world’.

Carr even showed off an end-of-term card the girls had sent her, covered in loving comments and kisses. A wan-faced Huntley befriended the media because he had a sinister motive: his need to know the details of the police inquiry. For the truth was that he had lured the girls into the home he shared with Carr, as they passed by. He has never fully revealed what took place there, but within an hour both girls were dead.

Then he hid their bodies near RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk, six miles away, and later returned to set fire to them. Huntley was convicted of the murders after pleading not guilty. Carr gave him a false alibi. She was sentenced to three-and-a-half years’ jail for perverting the course of justice and issued with a new identity on release.

Huntley will not be considered for release until he is 71. He is undoubtedly a target. In 2008 armed robber Damien Fowkes slashed his throat in Frankland, putting him in hospital, three years after murderer Mark Hobson threw boiling water over him in Wakefield Prison.

Samantha says: ‘I worry often that something will happen to him and no one will ever have closure.’

Huntley was 23 when he seduced Katie, then a schoolgirl in Grimsby. The relationship quickly turned abusive. Huntley raped her, forced her to eat cat food, chopped off her hair and threw her down the stairs when she was pregnant. As a baby, Samantha needed emergency open heart surgery – and her family have always blamed Huntley.

She says: ‘Sometimes, when I look at my scar, I think of what my mother went through. She told me I saved her, being pregnant with me gave her the strength to break free.

‘She said he did terrible, unspeakable things to her. I want him to say sorry – not that an apology will ever be enough – but to know there is some remorse means something.’

As well as securing answers for Holly and Jessica’s families, Samantha hopes meeting her father will assuage her own demons.

She says: ‘For years I’ve been haunted by the fear that a faceless monster would clamber through my bedroom window in the middle of the night or that he’d come and find me, or try to kill me when I was all alone.

‘My most recent nightmare was on Friday night. It was really detailed. His face is usually quite blurry, but this time it was vivid.

‘I’ve never heard his voice but in my dream he was shouting. He was trying to break into my nanna’s house. I woke up and I felt really sick. I thought: ‘I hope to god he never gets out.’ She adds: ‘I don’t feel like I have fully processed what has happened. I hope that by sitting in front of him it might enable me to let go of the nightmares and move forward with my life.’

She is quick to stress that her own pain in no way compares to the ‘unimaginable agony’ endured by Holly and Jessica’s parents. ‘He has now reached halfway through his sentences, but Holly and Jessica were robbed of their future and so were their families.

‘I don’t think he should ever be freed. But even so, he should do the right thing. It can just bring a little bit of peace to all of those who have the agony of wondering what happened every day.’

To this day, Samantha’s family keeps a brown cardboard box of newspaper clippings from Huntley’s arrest and trial.

When Samantha turned 18, her mother decided she needed to know the full story. She recalls: ‘My mum called me up to her bedroom, motioning for me to sit next to her on her bed. She handed me the box which was taped shut and said, ‘Sammy, this is what I call the box of nightmares. I’ve kept all of this as I knew that one day you would need to know everything. The only way I’ve been able to deal with it is to try as hard as I could to shut all memories of him away.’

‘Inside were all the neatly-folded newspaper clippings, reporting every horrific detail of Huntley’s crimes and what he did to my mum.

‘I read them all. I cried until I couldn’t cry any more. Then I put the lid back on the box, taped it shut and put it back under her bed.

‘Nowadays I try not to read stuff about him, or I turn over if it’s on the TV.

‘One day I may become a mother myself – and I want to be able to tell my daughter that while there is a monster in the family, he did meet me and did tell the truth and express deep remorse.

‘Perhaps expecting that to happen is a futile dream but it’s one that I’m willing to try.’

The draw was held at the Elbphilharmonie concert hall in Hamburg, one of the 10 host cities of the tournament.

Germany will also face Hungary and Switzerland in Group A.

Italy face a tough task in defending their title, drawn in Group B where they will face Spain, Croatia and Albania. Italy defeated Spain on penalties in the semi-final on their way to winning Euro 2020, but lost 4-0 to the Spanish in the 2012 final. Croatia reached the semi-final stage of the last World Cup.

France and the Netherlands will meet again after coming through the qualifying in the same group, drawn in Group D alongside Austria and the winners of playoff A. France, who won both games against the Dutch on their way to topping the qualifying group, kick off their Euro 2024 campaign against Austria in Duesseldorf.

The Netherlands must wait for the playoffs in March to find out who their opening opponents will be – Poland, Wales, Finland or Estonia.

England, runners-up at Euro 2020, are in Group C alongside Denmark, Slovenia and Serbia. England, who needed extra time to see off Denmark in the 2020 semi-finals, start the tournament against Serbia.

In Group E, Belgium face Romania, Slovakia and the winners of playoff B, Israel, Bosnia, Ukraine or Iceland.

Portugal are in Group F, alongside Turkey, Czech Republic and the playoff C winners, one of Georgia, Greece, Kazakhstan or Luxembourg, who finished third in Portugal’s qualifying group.

The top two in each of the six Euro 2024 groups proceed to the round of 16 along with the four best third-placed finishers.

Unexplained noises

The draw ceremony for the European Championship in men’s soccer was disrupted by unexplained noises that competed for attention with the team names being read out on stage on Saturday.

The interruption, which seemed to sound like sexual noises, was clearly heard for several minutes on the ceremony broadcast from a concert hall in Hamburg.

UEFA director of competitions Giorgio Marchetti noted the noise in his commentary before continuing with the draw for the last six places for lower-ranked teams in the 24-nation tournament lineup. The sound continued sporadically until the draw was completed.

Similar noises disrupted a BBC live broadcast of an English soccer game in January between Wolverhampton and Liverpool. It turned out to be a prank use of a mobile phone next to the studio.

Euro 2024 is being played in 10 Germany cities from June 14 to July 14.

I’m a professional hacker – and these are the 5 things that would allow me to crack into your smartphone within SECONDS

Published

on

Many of us would feel lost without our smartphones in hand – but what if that same device became a tool for criminals?

Kieran Burge, a security consultant at Prism Infosec, has revealed the five common mistakes that could let him crack into your smartphone within seconds.

As a penetration tester – a legal hacker who tests companies’ cybersecurity to find weaknesses before criminals do – Kieran knows what he’s talking about. 

And he says that simple mistakes such as reusing passwords, clicking on dodgy links and sharing too much information on social media could land you in hot water.

So, are you guilty of these security blunders? Read on to find out.

As a penetration tester – a legal hacker who tests companies’ cybersecurity to find weaknesses before criminals do – Kieran knows what he’s talking about 

1. Using out-of-date software

Keiran told MailOnline that one of the first things he and other hackers look for when preparing an attack is out-of-date software.

‘Out-of-date software is a really big issue because, if the software has been updated, it’s probably because there is a security issue’, he explained. 

Software, whether it is the operating system of your iPhone or the control system for a factory, often has some sort of vulnerability.

While these can quickly fixed by developers, they are also often shared online through forums and hacker communities.

If you haven’t updated your software to include the fix, Keiran explains, ‘people can get in and steal really sensitive information and even sometimes take control of the software.’

What are some of the most commonly hacked passwords? 

Research by Specops Software has found that easily predicted passwords are still commonly used.

Some of the most frequently compromised are: 

  • research
  • GGGGGGGG
  • Cleopatra 
  • Sym_cskill
  • mcafeeptfcorp
  • minecraft.A.S
  • sym_newhireOEIE 
  • password

The vulnerabilities can take many different forms and allow criminals to cause serious disruption for companies and individuals. 

These attacks are often opportunistic as criminal groups scan online archives for out-of-date versions of software.

Keiran says the recent crippling hack on the British Library was likely to have been an opportunistic attack of this kind

To keep safe online, Keiran says you should ‘always ensure that your software is up to date.’ 

2. Reusing passwords  

Another common way that hackers get hold of your personal data, according to Keiran, is by exploiting reused passwords.

Keiran told MailOnline: ‘No matter what site you’re giving information to you, you don’t know what they’re going to do with that information or how they’re going to protect it.’

He says that the big risk of re-using passwords is that if even one site you use is compromised, it can give hackers access to all of your accounts. 

Advertisement

‘As soon as a company is breached there’s usually a big database dump that gets put on the darkweb,’ Keiran said. 

The dark web is an encrypted part of the internet not accessible with normal search engines which is often used to host criminal marketplaces.

In April this year, an international raid brought down a hacker bazaar called Genesis Market which the FBI claims offered access to over 80 million account access credentials. 

Keiran said: ‘There are going to be databases out there with user name and password combinations for your accounts.’ 

‘If you’re reusing passwords then any hacker can take that combination and use it to take control of another company.’

3. Giving out too much information online

‘On a personal level, for someone in their day-to-day activities one of the most important things that people need to think about is how much information they’re sharing online,’ Keiran said.

In ‘red teaming’ – a cybersecurity term for testing the defences of a company – one of the first places Keiran and his team look is social media. 

‘We can do almost anything to get into a company, but one of the tools we use is harvesting data from social media,’ Keiran explained.

‘We scour social media sites like LinkedIn to see what we can find.’ 

Not only might this reveal usernames which can be linked to stolen account credentials, but it also opens the door to a whole range of other attacks. 

Advertisement

One of the most insidious attacks that this exposes you to is a technique called ‘sim swapping’ or ‘sim-jacking’.  

Keiran explains that hackers will search the web for information such as your date of birth, address, and even the answers to common security questions like your mother’s maiden name.

‘Once you have all that information you can use social engineering techniques to ring up their mobile provider and convince them to transfer the mobile number to a new sim,’ he said.

Now, whenever a text or call would go to the victim’s phone it instead goes straight to the attackers.

‘Once they have that you suddenly have access to all the multi-factor authentication sites that the person is signed up to,’ he added.

This could include work email accounts, online shopping accounts, and even online banking. 

‘Everything you put up online you no longer have control over, and if you’re unlucky and all that information links up then you can get your identity partly stolen,’ Keiran warned.

4. Connecting to unprotected public networks  

‘In the last few years something that’s become a lot more important is remote working,’ Keiran said. 

‘A big part of that involves people going to cafes like Starbucks and connecting to their public WiFi.’

The problem is that these kinds of public networks use a type of system called ‘open authentication’ to connect your device to the web without having to use identity verification.

Advertisement

While this makes it easy for you to quickly jump onto the coffee shop WiFi to send a few emails, it also puts you at risk of attacks from cybercriminals. 

Open authentication means that the data you send across the network is not encrypted and can be captured by anybody else on the network. 

‘Someone could be sat outside a public WiFi network and just listening in on what’s being sent,’ Keiran warned.

‘They could be in the cafe or they could be using specialist hardware to increase the range at which they can listen in on the network.

‘They can be hidden a safe distance away then all they have to do is listen and wait.’

Advertisement

To avoid personal information like banking details being stolen from public WiFi, Keiran recommends that you always use a VPN when in public. 

These services encrypt your data so that any eavesdroppers on the network won’t be able to read what your sending.  

On public WiFi anyone could be listening in on the information you're sending, waiting to steal sensitive information such as bank details and passwords

5. Clicking dodgy links 

Finally, Keiran says that sending dodgy links is still the most common way that people get hacked. 

Phishing scams remain the most prevalent attack in the UK according to the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC).

In 2022 alone, 7.1 million malicious emails and URLs were flagged to the NCSC – the equivalent of nearly 20,000 reports a day.

Advertisement

Keiran explains that hackers will send fake emails and text messages to targets containing links to malicious websites or instructions to download software.

Once one of these links has been clicked, it gives criminals a window to install malware on their victim’s device which can steal data and even take control. 

But as sophisticated as a computer virus might be, hackers still need someone to follow a link to a compromised website or download files containing hidden malware. 

‘You need to be vigilant of anyone that is sending you something when you don’t expect it,’ Kieran concluded.

‘Don’t click on dodgy links, don’t download dodgy files, don’t fall into their trap.’

Will Israel repeat its military tactics in southern Gaza?

Published

on

Israel resumed its military operation in the Gaza Strip on Friday with heavy bombardments. As strikes continue, the United States is pressuring the Israeli military to exercise restraint, particularly in the south, where nearly 2 million Palestinians are now concentrated. Will it work? 

After the seven-day truce ended on Friday morning, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) resumed their campaign in Gaza with a scale and intensity reminiscent of the first wave of their response to Hamas’s October 7 attack. Operations are now focused on the southern part of Gaza where hundreds of thousands fled following IDF bombardments in Gaza City and the north of the Strip. 

The US has urged Israel not to repeat the military tactics used during the first weeks of the war. Officials fear missile strikes followed by a ground offensive – the strategy used in the north – will result in too many Palestinian deaths and threaten a wider regional conflict.  

To prevent this outcome, senior Biden administration officials are urging Israel to change its approach. In Tel Aviv on Thursday, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that any such offensive must put “a premium on protecting civilians and making sure that humanitarian assistance gets to those who need it”.

White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan told CBS’s Face the Nation that the US has been talking “at length” with Israel to ensure that any “continuing military operations should learn lessons from the north (of the Gaza Strip).”

President Joe Biden himself reportedly told Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu “that the way Israel operated in northern Gaza, which included a wide assault and three armoured and infantry divisions, can’t be repeated in the southern part of the enclave because of the millions of Palestinians who are there now”, according to Axios, citing anonymous officials in the US administration.

“[The US] is saying that more attention should be paid to potential civilian casualties in the military operation,” says Omri Brinner, a Middle East geopolitics specialist at the International Team for the Study of Security Verona (ITSS), an international collective of experts on international security issues.

Since the start of Israel’s campaign, hundreds of thousands of Gazans have fled the northern part of the enclave to seek refuge in the south, where nearly 2 million people now reside. The United States does not want to see the count of Palestinian civilian casualties soar. (Editor’s note: the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza, which does not distinguish between civilian and military casualties, says more than 15,200 people have died since the war began.)

Despite US efforts, Israeli rhetoric has not yet moderated. “When we return to fighting, we will apply the same force and more, and we will fight across the whole of the Strip,” said Israeli Minister of Defence Yoav Gallant before the hostilities resumed.

Israel’s actions also appear to contradict American demands. On Friday, Israeli aircraft dropped leaflets in parts of Khan Yunis, the main southern city where Israel believes Hamas’s leadership is based. “The city of Khan Yunis is a dangerous combat zone,” the leaflets read. 

Advertisement

However, says Brinner, these calls for civilians to leave future combat areas can only have a limited effect. First, the southern Gaza Strip is already too small for the 2 million Palestinians who have found refuge there. “They certainly cannot all take refuge in an even narrower area.” 

Second, Hamas fighters “have perfected the art of blending in with the civilian population and using it as a shield against Israeli soldiers”, says Amnon Aran, a professor of international politics of the Middle East at the City University of London.

“They (Hamas) will do everything to deter [civilians] from leaving,” says Brinner.

American demands incompatible with Israeli objectives

“We now realise that Israel made a major tactical mistake by choosing to advance slowly and steadily from the north to the south, rather than attacking simultaneously in the north, centre, and south of the Gaza Strip,” says Ahron Bregman, a political scientist and specialist in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict at King’s College London. By doing so, the army “contributed to strengthening the human shield formed by the civilian population around Hamas in the south, where the army now wishes to inflict the most damage”.

In addition to this already complicated humanitarian context, “the main Hamas fighting forces are in the south”, says Aran. “Out of the 14 battalions engaged in the war against Israel, 10 are based in this region of the enclave.”

Israel sees the US demands as making its goals more complicated. Especially given the specificity of some of the demands. Washington has called for the creation of “de-escalation zones” (specific buildings such as UN facilities, hospitals, or schools) where Israeli soldiers cannot open fire to ensure the safety of the civilian populations inside.

“Hamas is known for using buildings such as hospitals or schools to shelter weapons and fighters. I don’t see how this American demand would be compatible with Israel’s stated military objectives,” says Veronika Poniscjakova, a specialist in the military aspects of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict at the University of Portsmouth in the UK.  

“If the intelligence establishes beyond doubt that Hamas militants are hiding in certain buildings, the Americans should not prevent Israeli strikes,” says Brinner. 

According to the Washington Post, the United States has also called on Israel to “use smaller and more precise munitions” – in other words, to refrain from dropping large explosive charges, as was the case in the north.

Is Israeli victory impossible?

The goal of minimising civilian casualties – commendable in and of itself – is also a way of preventing serious geopolitical repercussions, says Aran. “The population density will be such that the possibilities of a miscalculation during a bombing are multiplied. This also increases the risk of a major incident that could ignite the region, forcing the United States to intervene militarily.” 

Advertisement

However, the Israeli government may be reluctant to exercise restraint in its aerial campaign. Some parts of the Israeli public would perceive it as “putting the safety of Palestinian civilians above that of Israeli soldiers [who need air support to ensure the safety of their advance],” says Brinner. This is not the kind of message Netanyahu wants to convey.

Israel is walking a fine line. If Washington turns on Israel, Israel risks losing its main support in the UN Security Council and losing its largest weapons supplier. 

In the build-up to the US presidential elections, Israeli leaders will have to be mindful of the repercussions of what is happening in Gaza on the American campaign, says Aran. Biden may be much less patient with Netanyahu if the Israeli military makes him appear complicit in what some of the US electorate perceive as atrocities against Palestinian civilians.

In this context, it is difficult to imagine that Israel will achieve its stated military goal in the Gaza Strip, namely the eradication of Hamas and its military capabilities, says Bregman. “The Israeli military can diminish [their] military capabilities, destroy some weapon-manufacturing facilities and tunnels, but certainly not wipe Hamas off the map permanently.”

“At some point, Netanyahu will surely say that Israel has won, but it will be a meaningless statement … Hamas has already won a victory once on October 7 by striking Israel, and a second time by securing the release of prisoners, earning them some admiration from all Palestinians,” he adds.

Burkina Faso and Niger to quit G5 Sahel anti-jihadist force following Mali move

Published

The military leaders of Burkina Faso and Niger said Saturday they would quit the G5 anti-jihadist force in Africa’s Sahel area, the latest blow to the fight against insurgents in one of the world’s most troubled regions.

Issued on:

The G5, created in 2014, has secured only meagre results, with Mali also quitting the original five-nation force last year, also in the wake of a military coup.

Leaders of the five countries agreed to deploy a joint anti-terror task force backed by France in 2017, but the military rulers of Burkina, Niger and Mali have all accused Paris of having an outsize role after years of French deployments on their territories.

Burkina and Niger “have decided in full sovereignty to quit all instances of the G5 Sahel, including the joint force” as of November 29, the two countries said in a statement.

“The organisation is failing to achieve its objectives. Worse, the legitimate ambitions of our countries, of making the G5 Sahel a zone of security and development, are hindered by institutional red tape from a previous era, which convinces us that our process of independence and dignity is not compatible with G5 participation in its current form,” they said.

In a veiled reference to France, they added that “the G5 Sahel cannot serve foreign interests to the detriments of our people, and even less the dictates of any power in the name of a partnership that treats them like children, denying the sovereignty of our peoples.”

Published

on

An American influencer who lived in the UK has revealed the four things she hated the most about it.

The video by Georgia Rose, who goes by @georgiarosecurves on TikTok, has been seen by more than 120,000 people, dividing opinion amongst Brits and Americans. 

She told viewers: ‘These are some of the things I loved and hated when I was living in England.

‘This is mostly food based because I pretty much loved everything except the food – not a huge fan of the food’.

The American went on to list the things she didn’t enjoy and then made a separate video detailing what she did actually like – read on for the top four things she hated.

Full English breakfast 

The first thing on Georgia’s list, is possibly the most controversial – it’s a British staple.

She explains: ‘First off we’ve got the full English breakfast, got the beans, the sausages, the hot tomatoes, blood sausage – no, no thanks, pass, full pass.

‘I ate it on my second day in England and I didn’t touch another bean the whole damn time.’

Pigs in blankets 

Moving on, she lists another popular food choice and a Christmas favourite, she tells viewers: ‘Next up, British pigs in a blanket. My housemate said he was making these with dinner one night.

‘He said pigs in a blanket, I thought oh delicious, American pigs in a blanket – and he made these monstrosities. 

 ‘And I don’t know if it was just because I was so heartbroken that it wasn’t American pigs in a blanket or if I just hated these – just not a fan, not a fan of these, too much and it doesn’t even taste good.’

American ‘pigs in blankets’ are hot dogs in croissant dough, similar to what Brits would call a sausage roll.

She told viewers 'I don't know if it was just because I was so heartbroken that it wasn't American pigs in a blanket or if I just hated these - just not a fan, not a fan of these, too much and it doesn't even taste good'

British KFC 

Georgia went on to rage about British KFC, claiming: ‘The KFC doesn’t have f****** mashed potatoes – there’s not mashed potatoes and there’s not macaroni and cheese at KFC.

‘I was so hungover one time and my housemates and I were gonna go get KFC and we get there and there’s no mashed potatoes or macaroni and cheese on the menu.

‘I about f****** cried cause I was so hungover and I really wanted mashed potatoes. So yeah, they don’t have mash there.

‘You get fries with KFC and my housemate was like I always wondered why they had gravy – I was like cause they’re supposed to have f****** mashed potatoes too and she’s like, oh that makes sense.

‘Get it together KFC in the UK.’

However, viewers were quick to point out that while it doesn’t have macaroni cheese, KFC in the UK does offer mashed potatoes.

The TikToker replied: ‘They got them right after I left! So happy’.

Walking in the rain 

Finally, something most Brits are used to is gloomy weather, however the American found it difficult.

She angrily said: ‘Last up, walking in the f****** rain. Walking on these goddamn cobblestone streets and the slippery ass f****** stones.

‘Having to walk everywhere, wet feet, being wet all the time, walking everywhere wet.

‘Terrible, it’s terrible and I f****** hated it and you know what’s worse than just having to walk somewhere, is that after you go hook up with a guy from Tinder, you have to walk home when you can barely f****** walk and it’s raining and there’s cobblestone streets and you’re headed home from a Netflix and chill session.

‘I remember I got lost one time on my way home and my phone wasn’t working and so I’d walk really far over.

‘I was like, I will never again take for granted being able to drive home after a booty call – like, we don’t know how good we have it in America’.

The video prompted backlash from Brits who defended themselves in the comments.

One user wrote: ‘You not liking pigs in blankets is a deviancy on your part’.

Another added: ‘Why would you assume American pigs in a blanket when you’re in England? Also it’s sausage wrapped in bacon – that’s meat with meat! Delish!’

Others chimed in with: ‘Does it not rain in the US? We have taxis, Uber and buses’ and ‘Mmmmm we do have mash potatoes’.

Another penned: ‘Find it amazing that people visit other countries and fail to believe that people eat other foods as part of their culture that different to the US’.

Although, some fellow Americans also flocked to the comments to join the debate.

One person from the US wrote: ‘When I went to the UK the first time I hated the food! 

‘I was disappointed- lived off fish and chips!’

Meanwhile, someone else agreed: ‘I absolutely HATED the food in England… I was there in 1997. I would stop at a convenience store, get a premade sandwich/diet coke’.

Is it the flu, Covid or just a cold? Ultimate guide on how to tell your symptoms apart this winter

Published

on

Many of will be plagued with runny noses, coughs and sore throats this winter. But it can be tricky to tell whether a cold, flu or Covid is responsible.

While symptoms may vary between people, the common cold is usually mild and more of a ‘nuisance’, while the flu or Covid can keep you in bed for days, experts say.

Health chiefs this week warned that a wave of winter respiratory viruses is set to hit imminently, with cases of the vomiting bug norovirus already rocketing.

So, to help you tell the difference between the viruses, MailOnline has asked doctors and scientists to breakdown the most common symptoms of each.

Cold

A common cold can hit you at any time of year, but it’s most likely creep up on you in the winter months, as with all respiratory illnesses.

‘Cold symptoms are more of a head cold with runny nose, sneezing, sore throat and blocked nose’, says Cardiff University’s Emeritus Professor Ron Eccles, who has spent decades researching the pesky bugs that cause them.

That means if your symptoms are mostly restricted to your upper airways it’s likely to be a cold, he says.

Rhinoviruses are the most common cause of a cold, but a minor infection of the nose and throat can be caused by one of more than 200 different viruses. 

Cold weather alone can’t actually cause a cold. But the body is more susceptible to infection when the immune system is weaker — which can be caused by a drop in temperature, Professor Eccles says.

‘Colds usually develop gradually and can cause cough, congestion and fatigue’, says London-based NHS GP Dr Hana Patel.

‘They creep up on you with stuff like a runny nose or a sore throat.’

Colds can be told apart from the flu, as they tend to be ‘a nuisance’, while the flu ‘can knock you off your feet and keep you in bed’, Dr Patel says.

However, the overlap in symptoms between a cold and the flu, including sneezing and a blocked nose can make clinical diagnoses challenging, explains Dr Samuel White, based at the Medical Technologies Innovation Facility at Nottingham Trent University, who has spent years researching the immune system. 

There are plenty of crossovers in symptoms between a cold and the flu, which is also more rife in the depths of winter.

Caused by influenza viruses, the illness usually causes people to have a cough, which is the most common crossover symptom. 

But experts say that, although many symptoms are similar, the flu is typically much more intense and effects the whole body. 

‘Flu symptoms typically have body symptoms such as chilliness, fever, headache and muscle aches and pains,’ according to Professor Eccles. 

‘The flu feels worse because the symptoms affect the whole body and are not restricted to a head cold.’

Flu does tend to cause ‘more severe manifestations’, according to Professor Philippe Wilson, of One Health, Medical Technologies Innovation Facility, Nottingham Trent University, who has worked on numerous clinical trials and studied a range of diseases in both humans and animals.

In fact, one of the main differences is flu can cause stomach problems.  

Explaining this, Professor Eccles says: ‘These can include a higher fever, profound body aches, and pronounced fatigue. Moreover, gastrointestinal symptoms like vomiting and diarrhoea are more prevalent in influenza cases.’

The flu also has the potential to be life-threatening. But this is usually only the case for those aged over 65, are pregnant, or who have long-term health conditions. A cold can only has the same effect in extremely rare cases.

This group is recommended to get an annual flu vaccine to help protect them against getting seriously ill.  

Professor Wilson said: ‘Individuals generally experience more pronounced discomfort with the flu.

‘The heightened severity of symptoms, coupled with the potential for complications like pneumonia, underscores the significance of distinguishing between the two for appropriate management.’

Covid 

At the start of the Covid pandemic, a loss of taste or smell, a continuous cough and a fever, were the three tell-tale signs of the virus. 

But as new variants evolved and both vaccines and repeated waves of infection blunted the virus’s threat, the official symptom list continued to grow.

Now, a runny nose, sore throat, headache, persistent cough and fatigue are all reported signs of the virus.

The virus is still circulating in the UK, but isn’t sickening Brits at the same rate as it did in previous winters.

Although many Covid symptoms, such as coughing and nasal congestion, are shared with the flu and cold, Professor Wilson explains that the virus can have a more ‘persistent and pronounced impact on the respiratory system’. 

He added: ‘Fever is a common sign, and in Covid, it tends to be more prolonged and elevated compared to typical colds.’

Another symptoms less common in cold and flu but spotted in the Covid-infected is shortness of breath, which Professor Wilson says can range from mild to severe. 

A more unique and distinctive symptom of Covid is a sudden loss of taste and smell, which is far less common in common cold and flu. 

Professor Wilson said: ‘Beyond these primary symptoms, severe cases of Covid can lead to complications such as chest pain, confusion, and bluish discoloration of the lips or face, indicating a need for immediate medical attention.’

However, Dr White stresses that getting vaccinations are ‘essential for preventing infection from common diseases like the flu’.

He added: ‘While there are shared symptoms, Covid distinguishes itself through its potential for severe outcomes and unique manifestations like loss of taste and smell.

‘Prioritising vaccinations and adhering to preventive measures remains paramount in mitigating the impact of these respiratory illnesses.’
