14 October 2020: Update on The Corona Pandemic – Belgium released more worrying data, both the number of coronavirus infections and the number of people that are being hospitalized continue to be on the rise.  Hospital across the nation are increasing their capacity for Covid-19 patients and are hoping that the situation doesn’t turn into a war situation. On Friday the government will announce the “Corona Barometer”. The barometer will work with colour codes which will stand for certain measures. Depending on the figures, a gradual tightening or relaxing of the measures in force will be possible. Meanwhile, yesterday the Netherlands introduced a string of new restrictions to curb the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Among others, here are the most important ones: cafes, bars and restaurants will be shut down for at least four weeks, the number of social contacts and movements will be cut drastically and working from home will become mandatory. Other noteworthy news was that Belgium will purchase rapid coronavirus tests after all. The decision came three weeks after Germany and the Netherlands placed the order. Yesterday, it was also announced that the EU finally agreed to introduce uniform color codes for travel zones. Today’s beautiful postcard view of downtown Ghent conflicts sharply with the worrying situation we’re confronted with – Ghent, Belgium.
