With the Covid_19 going on in the world, I just wanted to make an update. It is important to talk about it. However, I don’t think people need to panic. This doesn’t have anything to do with my website, but I think this is needed for me.
I live in Belgium. It does not have a huge amount of Corona cases. Still there are already more than 500 in just two weeks. It raised by 160 in one day even and a lot of people haven’t been tested because there is not enough material or because the hospitals are to busy.
They closed all schools for at least 3 weeks. Loads of those are going online, like universities, but highschools don’t. They also closed all restaurants and bars permanently for 3 weeks. The supermarkets will stay open all week. All other shops will close during weekends.
This subject has been in the media for so long now, and people only start to realise it now. Pretty late. But to be fair, me as a young person am not scared to get it myself. But I don’t want to infect other people. I am also a bit nervous for the economy, I think everyone understands that. Can they recover quickly from this downfall? How will the schools go further? Everyone misses their courses and lots of people don’t have a job because of all the closings.
I am thankful for all people, the doctors, the nurses, everyone who is helping others and to control the virus. I hope everyone takes care of them and their loved ones.
and wash your hands 😉
