Maybe @heywoodu knows some more details? Ministry of Foreign Affairs about people already there: "Think carefully if your trip really is necessary. If it's not, it is strongly recommended not to stay there." Plus some people getting a bit mad on social media for the government declaring all of Croatia orange instead of specific regions (like they did for Spain and Portugal). "There's nothing going on here in Istria!", said one guy. https://nos.nl/artikel/2341435-negatief-reisadvies-voor-kroatie-waar-vermoedelijk-duizenden-nederlanders-zijn.html dcro 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Was out today on the Knokke-De Panne tram, very busy. pdr4332 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympian1010 7,579 Posted July 27, 2020 #3685 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I hate how excited/hopeful I am after reading this. There’s still so much that could prevent this vaccine from being deemed viable. It’s a good moral booster though. I just hope we’re not rushing the trials for the sake of profit or being first. There’s a lot of assurances I need met before I take any vaccine developed in the US. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Until now most news about vaccine I heard are positive ones, hope it will come true. BTW China are conducting phase 3 trial in UAE and Brazil meanwhile a small cluster of people like airline stewardess already took the unproved vaccine in practice. opruh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHSN 3,347 Posted July 28, 2020 #3687 Share Posted July 28, 2020 highest number of death for Iran with 235 today and it's just getting worse. finally after 5 months Tehran province is declared today as "red zone", my town is in red zone for more than a week though. I'm convinced that probably alongside USA and Brazil we will be the last countries to solve this virus thing. (unless a vaccine changes things) guess what Iran, USA and Brazil have in common ? and personally the worst news is my sister is showing symptoms, (still no confirmed test) and she was with me on Friday (probably the only mistake I made in past 5 months) and I'm coughing too. (well I cough a lot so it can be nothing but you know the power of mind) and I will quarantine myself completely to see what will happen.

It’s probably too late already, but if you are, you need to isolate yourself from them immediately. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

I moved in with my parents to make sure they don't have to leave the house that much since the start of the pandemic, I moved back to my own place the moment I heard the news today. but my sister had some contacts with my parents too (not much but still) and I had lots of contacts with them in past few days. that's my biggest concern. they are still completely fine though.
