It's becoming more and more difficult to sift out the facts from the fiction. Masks are in one minute, then they're out and there are so many theories doing the rounds, the whole 5G debate being one of them. Hmmmm ....
Seven days down for us, who knows how many more to go?! Feels a bit surreal - people are still venturing out when they needn't, other problems are that the military are overstepping the mark sometimes which I suppose was bound to happen - all quite fraught on the human rights front. Shelters have been set up for the homeless from in and around where I live and in greater Cape Town, which is progress, and there are a lot of selfless humanitarian helpers out there who deserving of so much more than respect.
So far numbers are low but the next two weeks will be critical. Since carriers can be asymptomatic, I don't see how containment is possible, ultimately, unless every single person is tested which leads to an entirely new can of worms. All very confusing!!
