There is a spike in today’s new cases but I am not in a panic mode yet. It has taken the pandemic more than 6 months to go past the 20,000 mark. This particular number will bounce like a yo-yo at this stage. Look at the same number here in the USA. There were about 63,200 new cases yesterday but today it is down to about 54,100. Two days ago it was about 58,600 and about 55,100. That could be a sign of stabilizing but still raging. The recovery rate over there is not that great but it is not terribly bad either at around 44%. The number of patients in intensive care among the documented still active cases is on the high side for me at 1.5%. We should expect more new deaths to come on daily basis. With such rudimentary healthcare system, I see it as a commendable job. When I think about what could have been done in this area of the infrastructure with the more than 20 billion US dollars looted by the deacons of Sebhat Nega(Marx, Lenin & Mao) and cabals between 2012 and 2018 alone, it just boils my blood. But our dearest daughter/sister H.E. Dr. Lia has been doing the best with what she has.
