--- Quote ---East Finchley big cat scare: Armed police called to garden

An exotic pet cat sparked an armed police response when it was spotted in a back garden.

The large feline, thought to be a rare Savannah breed, caused alarm when it was seen in Winnington Road, East Finchley, north London.

Scotland Yard said firearms officers and an animal expert - to assess the threat posed by the leopard-spotted interloper - were sent to the scene.

After it was deemed safe, the cat ran off. Its owner has yet to be found.

--- Quote ---How Greece moved early and decisively to keep Covid-19 out
Greece had all the trappings of a Covid-19 disaster waiting to happen – but it has defied the odds

At the time of writing, Greece has recorded just 2,882 cases of Covid-19 and 172 deaths. In comparison, Belgium – with a population size similar to Greece – has reported 57,455 cases and 9,334 deaths.

Greece had all the trappings of a Covid-19 disaster waiting to happen: a decade-long financial crisis had weakened the country’s healthcare system, political instability and corruption reigned, and it has the second-oldest population in the EU. It was for these reasons that many experts expected Greece’s outcome to mirror Spain’s or Italy’s, but it managed to defy the odds.
