It is that childrens should be in home within those hours and learn online instead spending time with classmates somewhere eg. in shopping centers or parks becuase it "cause more possible outbreaks of virus among children"

Ah, right, I hadn't thought about children of course still being obligated to 'go to school', even when 'going to school' is online now

today was the big breakout day in Italy...

 

we went from the usual 10/11k new cases/day of the past couple of weeks to an unbelievable 19k new cases...  

 

a full lockdown is still out of order according to our PM, but I don't think he's to be trusted that much...

 

with such numbers, we're going to be very soon in a strict lockdown, even worse than last March/April, unless they want to see thousends of deceased people a day...

That's sad, and things looks good in summer...

 

Meanwhile in France is record of +42k cases and 298 deaths in just one day

First results are out.

 

61.905 People attended the first day of the Pilot testing in the 4 Northern counties with 180.000 inhabitants, so 1/3 of the population ! and this was Friday, there still the whole weekend to come.

 

people stood in long queues for testing also in the evening. The stations closed at 20:00 and will reopen tomorrow morning at 08:00 again.

 

 

Meanwhile, from the 61.905 tested 2.225 are positive and were send to 10 days home quarantine. The negative persons will be retested once again during next weekend Nationwide 1st testing wave again.

 

So now just imagine the amount from the whole country. Next weekend numbers will be really interesting...

 

 

Insane pictures. I can not even imagine the next weekend

How is the situation in China right now ? It looks like there are more news about that, but I guess the situation there is much better than in Europe right now

Basically the pandemic is considered over in China and almost everything's back to normal although some little scattered cluster cases found for several times. And vaccine begin for publicly emergency use targeting potential oversea students and workers although phase 3 trial is not fully finished yet. I hope the vaccine would finish development soon and make us all back to norm.

The numbers are decreasing further day by day in terms of active cases and new cases daily as compared to September 18. AP went from 1.04 to just 55k active cases while kerala is one of the worst position states now witg peak expected in December or January. Even my state is now seeing cases break record every day after testing went up from 50-60k to 90k+ every day in last few days. Delhi went through the 2nd peak too, with 3rd peak coming in December. 30k - 9.9k - 32k - 24k... That order of active cases in delhi since june. 

Schools and colleges are reopening for students soon so it can increase further across country 

Lakshwadeep has still 0 cases of coronavirus. Mizoram still has 0 deaths of covid 19 after 1500+ cases 

Thank you very much for your reply. All the best.
