NL Times  

A total of 5.5 million people tuned in to watch a press conference by Prime Minister Mark Rutte and Health Minister Hugo de Jonge on Tuesday regarding coronavirus measures over the festive season, according to figures from Stichting Kijkonderzoek. With that, the press conference attracted fewer viewers than the two previous ones in November, which 6.5 million and 5.8 million people watched. In the press conference, the Prime Minister waned that the number of coronavirus infections is rising again and that if this continues, the government may need to implement even stricter measures during the festive season. Health Minister De Jonge said that the Netherlands' first Covid-19 vaccine shipment will consist of 507 thousand doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and is expected to arrive in the first week of January.
