NYC Shifts School Rules; Florida Sues Over Cruises: Virus Update

New York City said four or more Covid-19 cases in a school in a week will result in a 10-day closing, up from a two-case rule. The pandemic is erupting anew in youth sports across the U.S., prompting fresh warnings from President Joe Biden’s health advisers and adding a headwind to his push to reopen classrooms.

Florida said it is suing the federal government to allow cruising to return in the U.S., more than a year after the industry went on hiatus. The world’s biggest online travel agency is in favor of vaccine passports that would make it safer and easier for people to travel.

India is attempting to boost its capacity to make vaccines, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday, as new cases in the world’s second-most populous nation surged to a record. The EU has exported more than 80 million vaccine doses since the beginning of February, with Japan overtaking the U.K. as the main destination.

Ohio Moving in ‘Wrong Direction’ (4 p.m. NY)
Governor Mike DeWine said that new infections in Ohio are “moving in the wrong direction” but “we can still turn this around” if more people get vaccinated. “We’re in a race. It’s a life and death race,” the Republican governor said at press briefing on Thursday.
He said Ohio crossed the threshold of one-third of those eligible having received the vaccine, and he said he was sending extra doses to areas with higher rates of virus variants. At the same time, the state reported 2,742 cases on Thursday compared with a 21-day average of 1,801, as hospitalizations and intensive-care admissions also increase. It was most new infections for three weeks.
Cleveland, Ohio, is on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s list of 10 U.S. metro areas with an increased Covid-19 burden.

Outbreak Hits U. of Chicago (3:16 p.m. NY)
The University of Chicago is telling students living in its dorms to stay in their rooms beginning immediately through April 15 because of a large cluster of Covid-19 cases involving undergraduates. Classes for undergrads are moving to fully remote for seven days.
Many of these cases may have been connected to parties held by off-campus fraternities over the last week, Michele Rasmussen, dean of students and Eric Heath, associate vice president for safety and security, said in an email to students Wednesday. Tests in recent days have detected more than 50 cases involving students, including many living in residence halls.
“We are particularly concerned because of the high likelihood that these cases involve the B.1.1.7 coronavirus variant, which is currently widespread in the Chicago area, appears to spread more easily than other variants, and is able to cause more severe disease in people of all ages,” they said.

A community vaccination site in a Denver suburb that closed Wednesday after 11 people who received Johnson & Johnson jabs fell ill has reopened. Colorado Governor Jared Polis said there “weren’t any issues” with the vaccines.

Russia, Slovakia Clash Over Vaccine (12:46 p.m. NY)
Slovakia and Russia clashed over the Sputnik V Covid-19 vaccine after the European Union member accused Moscow of delivering shots that were different from those used in a peer-reviewed study.

EU Has Exported 80 Million Doses (12:28 p.m. NY)

Japan has overtaken the U.K as the main export destination, getting 17.7 million shots produced in the EU, versus 13.3 million for shipment to Britain. European governments have been under pressure to curb exports as their rollout lags behind vaccination rates in the U.S and the U.K. However, out of the 534 export requests submitted by drugmakers so far, only one has been refused and two are pending, according to the memo dated April 8.

India’s Virus Epicenter Has Only Three Days of Vaccines in Stock
France Meets Vaccine Goal (12:13 p.m. NY)
France met its target of inoculating 10 million people with a first dose of vaccine on Thursday, a week ahead of schedule, as the country endures its third lockdown.

Booking CEO Favors Vaccine Passes (11:53 a.m. NY)
The world’s biggest online travel agency is in favor of vaccine passports that would make it safer and easier for people to travel.
“We need a way that tourists can go to a country but prove that they are safe to travel so that governments are willing to let people come,” said Booking Holdings Inc. Chief Executive Officer Glenn Fogel in an interview on Bloomberg Television Thursday. Fogel added that taking a test three days prior to traveling is
