The continual growing number of new cases, not just in Hungary, but the wider Europe, which will sadly continue to rise, we are seeing drastic steps undertaken, by a number of countries, in an effort to Control and Manage – reduce the already catastrophic economic disasters they have suffered, through this rampant current wave, of this novel virus, that is sweeping, growing in momentum through Europe – AGAIN.
WHY ?
A predominant reason is the Failure of Countries to Separate there HEALTH & their Economies.
Countries that do not place Health as there Priority- the Health of their Citizens – followed by their Economies – they have and will continue to experience pro-longed pain through the presence of this deadly novel coronavirus.
Winter is fast approaching.
We expect in Hungary the “zenith” of this second wave in January 2021, and at the present daily rate of new case infections, the daily number, who really knows that answer, come January 2021.
Prime Minister – Victor Orban & his Government have been exemplary throughout the months from the outbreak of this virus invading our country.
Immediately – it should be seriously considered to close venues at 10pm reducing it from the present 11pm time line.
Social distancing – Group Gatherings – Personal Hygiene we must continue to ensure these are practiced.
Winter is coming and the closing off of venues bars, clubs – facilities that people can meet – we must close them off, reducing further the possibility of higher numbers in new cases.
We wait with patience and tolerance, for the discovery of a vaccine, that will immunize human beings from contacting and spreading this novel deadly virus.
Stay Safe & Well – ALL.
