Going wrong again

 For a long time, our country managed to keep the number of infections with covid19 more or less in balance - albeit on a rather high platform. But since the beginning of last week, it's exploding once more and we're in for the third wave.

In my opinion, the government isn't taking the right measures. They allowed people to meet (outside!) with 10, not counting children under age 12. They opened up hairdressers, beauty salons, etc. - all places where you are in close contact with the customer. And they want to keep the schools open.

Other measures, starting on April 1st, are postponed. 

The way the infections are going, it's not going to be enough.

They'd better close down the entire county in a severe lockdown, in which everything's closed expect the food stores, doctors and pharmacies. And then hurry up the vaccination program. It's going way too slow here in Belgium. Perhaps that way, they could keep the contamination in check and hope that by summer everything could return more or less to normal!
