Meticulous or laidback lockdown?

There will be a time when we will be able to look in the rear-view mirror and reflect on COVID-19. However, life is here and now, and we are still fighting every day. I do not know why, but I recall the Swine flu so much. Maybe that is why I am so careful. Schools are soon starting again, and the usual autumn viruses will, in addition to the Corona virus, cause various symptoms of a cold. So, keep distance and wash your hands!

I do not what to say about the news. My concern is about how they are presented. People have died in COVID-19, but they should have died anyway. It doesn’t feel right to put it that way. In Brazil, they put crosses on a beach to symbolise all lives gone due to the disease. The Swedish epidemiologist Anders Tegnell has done a great job to stay in the media every day. We need somebody who can just be there. It is like he is a military commander in a battle that took place in the 17th century. And he does it well! Moreover, it is interesting to note that it appears to be other harmful viruses than the Corona virus leading to hospital stays. True or false news?

There are a lot of discussions about lock-downs. The EU 🇪🇺 has put together an enormous “save the economy” deal. Due to a more laidback lockdown, Sweden’s Minister of Finance has reduced the economical crisis.

Most important is that you take care of yourself. Then you can help others. I have returned to some training. Spinning instead of running. And I am looking forward to this weekend filled with exercise. I was going to participate in “Tjejmilen” this year but it is cancelled. Sharing a picture form last year.
