6 April 2021: The peak of the third wave seems to be behind us, but other key indicators are still on the rise. During the week from 27 March to 2 April an average of 4,300 people tested positive for SARCoV-2. The figure is down 10% on the week. 2,921 patients are currently in hospital with Covid.  832 are in intensive care. By 1 April 1,496,083 people in Belgium had received their first shot of the corona vaccine.  That’s 16.3% of adults. 569,101 people have had their second jab. Starting as of today everybody in Belgium over 18 can register on the reserve list for coronavirus vaccinations.  The list will be used by vaccination centres eager to avoid waste.  People will be called up last minute to attend their vaccination centre as extra doses become available e.g. due to no shows. Also, as of today pharmacists will start selling the coronavirus self-tests.  The test will require you to swab your nose at a depth of two centimetres.  Hoping that spring will mark the end of this unprecedented health crisis, I continue to document my hometown. What I’m seeing is sometimes surreal, ugly, paradoxical and complex. It’s a little bit of everything and a little bit of nothing but it’s unique in its own right. On display today is another mural of Kitsune.– Sint-Pietersnieuwstraat, Ghent, Belgium.
