19 October 2020: Update on The Corona Pandemic – Belgium set a new record last Tuesday with 11,737 people testing positive for SARS-CoV-2. In Brussels and Wallonia infection rates are 50% higher than in the Greater Paris Region, which is often considered as a benchmark for the French speaking people in Belgium. The problematic circumstances led the Belgian minister of Health, Frank Vandenbroucke, to say that the situation became the worst and most dangerous in Europe. The coronavirus is hitting us like a tsunami and the only thing we can do is keeping our number of social contacts to an absolute minimum and hoping that the newly implemented measures will bear fruit as soon as possible. On display is a picture from last Saturday of the flea market near the Saint James church (Sint-Jacobs). As of today, all flea markets and Christmas markets will be prohibited in Belgium. It probably will take a while before bargain hunters will be able to visit again this hotspot downtown Ghent – Sint-Jacobs, Ghent, Belgium.
