9 February 2021: In the week to 5 February on average 2,212 people tested positive each day in Belgium. The figure is down 5% on the week. In the week to 7 February an average of 128 people with COVID-19 were admitted to Belgian hospitals each day. This is a rise of 11% on the week, however, the 7-day rolling average for the number of people dying after having become infected with coronavirus continues to fall. During the week up to 4 February an average 38 people with COVID-19 died each day. The coronavirus pandemic in Belgium appears to be plateauing at a level that is way too high, raising the question: When are the numbers going to come down and how fast? Experts are concerned that it could take longer than we expect. I guess we’ll just need to wait and hang in there. Meanwhile, the country is hit by sub-zero temperatures and snow resulting in traffic misery across the country. The merrymakers I met at the park last Sunday don’t seem to be bothered by the virus nor by the snow and low temperatures… – Citadelpark, Ghent, Belgium
