One step back
In this early stage of Covid vaccines we have hit a snag with our citizens. We have a spike and so our prime minister has decided to quarantine the entire island until the second to last week in May. The PM himself got the virus a few weeks ago, prooving once again that it can happen to anyone. We got a heads up from a friend who suspected that we were facing the very thing that was said at the press conference. We are still extremely luck here despite such a serious rollback. The government has done everything it can to keep people working on a staggered level. But Malls, restaurants and bars cannot open. This includes fast food restaurants. So I expect that as the prime minister has given to midnight for what he said to take effect, I can imagine how many people are going to automatically decide to run to the fast food places and order up to a ridiculous degree. This happened last year.
I feel a bit of the fact that just as things have begun to feel a bit better, we now have this situation. But, again, our leader said that he could leave everything as is and then we can spend our time looking at an overwhelmed hosspitals and lots of funeral plots. Put that way it is clear that twenty-one days shall go by with a better understanding of what we need and must do as opposed to what has happened in India. I looked at the Covid-19 Bing.com map today, as I find that it is better to look at that than to take what I hear from the news media.
I also have to say that I am grateful that I had a conversation with my second curator who pushed back my show to June. I believe that that is a good call. The present show that started on Monday is actually also a good call, as that gallery decided to make the show a virtual one. What is unfortunate is that you have so many people doing the right thing, and it only takes a few people who just take it lightly to push us all the way back. I really hope that this reversal will take.
