Coronavirus - Good News

You mean the parents killed the guard? Just that simple?

@Tera - Sadly, exactly that simple. A really bad example of people who have NO perspective on reality and NO control over their rage.

It's sad and scary to see it happening. Apparently there are groups of people who will not take the virus seriously until it kills Mom, Dad, or wife..

Tokyo, the most populated city in the world, with more than 38 million people, has shown less than 5 infected persons per day for the last 8 consecutive days.
Government's quarantine request has been removed from most cities, Tokyo will be released if another 7 days show one digit infections.
Though our quarantine was far different and easier to keep from most European and American cities, But still it's a relief to see our cities are going back to their normal life style. I'm also glad to see the charts for the whole world is dropping.

I believe the day that the whole world is back to its feet is not that far. There was a day I believed it's the end of line for human kind, but the whole world showed we are much stronger to be destroyed by a virus.
Let's be patient for one or two more weeks and celebrate the day that is waiting for us. The day that we can be what we used to be.
Meanwhile don't forget to pray for those who lost a precious one.

Starting from tomorrow morning (Monday) all restrictions will be removed. Tokyo shows the expected result and is the last city to be released of quarantine. We are back to what we used to be. Although during the quarantine, the only effected jobs were restaurants and bars, and all the companies were normally functional, but it’s a relief to hear everyone is back to 2 months ago.

I hope we hear the same news from other countries as soon as possible.

When you think of it, is that really possible? I would think that everywhere, things have changed forever. I don't expect things to return to the way they were, just a new normal.

If you mean exactly as before, it may be impossible, but the core is the same. We weren’t restricted the way more cities or countries were. And we really didn’t felt what other countries were facing. So our 2 months ago and today is not much different and going back to what we were is not that hard (except lost lives). I mostly meant that we are back to our daily routine as before.

Great news as my daughter lives near Wellington.

Whereabouts is she Paul..?

 

[pbaldy]

She and her husband moved to NZ about 7 years ago. They started out in Wellington, then moved across the bay (harbor?) to the Eastbourne area. We've visited a few times so far, due for another but Covid may have something to say about that.

Are you in the Wellington area? We've met up with a former Access MVP that lives in that area, really nice guy.

 

[Darrell]

OK I have a lot of family scattered around Wellingotn - none in Eastbourne though, other parts of Lower Hutt and Kaiwharawhara, Johsonville etc

No I live In Napier - on the coast approx halfway between Wellington and Auckland, way less windy and considerably warmer!!

 

[pbaldy]

We almost went to Napier on a road trip, ended up around Lake Taupo instead. I think everyplace is less windy than Wellington, isn't it?

I'm afraid you were right. Now, this is our schools:
