31 March 2020 Update From A Locked Down Ghent

Experts are telling that the measures that have been implemented are starting to pay off and that the force of the epidemic is decreasing. Nevertheless, yesterday the government reported that 1,063 new people have tested positive for Covid-19. The total number of cases in Belgium is now 11,899. The total number of people admitted to hospital is 4,524, an increase of 536 patients in one day. Of those patients, 927 are in the intensive care unit. Also, 82 new deaths have been reported, bringing the total number of deaths in Belgium to 513. Let’s hope for the best and prepare for the worst. To keep my sanity, I carry on with my daily corona walks. Yesterday I continued to explore Ghent’s Street Art Hotspots. Stay Safe, Stay Healthy – Colruyt Ledeberg, Ghent, Belgium
