epidemic

A few days ago, I went to the supermarket to buy flour, but I didn't expect it to be out of stock. There was a notice on the limit of the number of purchases per person on the shelf. Germany itself produces flour and even exports it. should not be affected by war. It turned out to be caused by the hoarding mentality of the people.

Suddenly it seems to be back to the early days of the epidemic, when I often looked for flour and toilet paper in the supermarket.

Two days ago, Germany and other European countries also officially lifted the epidemic and eased restrictions.

Despite the record number of daily infections. Almost 300,000 people are infected every day. And because the test capacity is limited. It is estimated that 300,000 people are still undercount.

Relatives and friends around me feel that at least 1/3 or more have been infected. A friend even got infected twice in just four weeks.

Fortunately, the currently popular virus variant Omicron is mild, unlike Delta a year ago, and it is also fortunate that most people have received three shots of the vaccine.

The elders around him remain reclusive. But also be prepared for the possibility of being infected.

Let's guess. 40% of the people should have been infected, and gradually everyone has antibodies. This is the only way to truly end the epidemic and turn it into the flu.

because many people are infected. 75% of hospitals lack medical staff and cannot function properly, so they can only move back to regular surgical treatment.

In the circle of friends I know, there are still many people who refuse to be vaccinated. Others believe that the outbreak is entirely a government conspiracy. Not that serious.

Mr. Colleague, at the end of 2020, I was infected when there was no vaccine available. Not serious enough to be hospitalized. I'm getting better at home isolation. It has been more than a year since recovery, and the overall mental condition is not good. I can only concentrate and work for three or four hours a day, and then I can't stand it anymore. Itogami colleagues are very loving. Reduce his class hours. The rest of the workload will be shouldered by everyone.

This colleague's child is still in middle school. Also young. Early retirement is too early.

So hearing friends believe in conspiracy theories. According to the information, a doctor confirmed that the virus is not that serious. Under this guise, the government restricts the freedom of the people. Vaccines are more poisonous than epidemics, I really don't know how to answer.

South Korea currently has an innovative number of infections, exceeding 400,000 people a day. There are even more than 600,000 people in a single day. The population of South Korea is about 50 million, which is 30 million less than that of Germany.

I think it is because the public has been well protected before, a virgin land, and the virus can be so reckless.

My daughter was very surprised to hear that. Last year, when she was in Seoul, as long as the number of infections exceeded 2,000 in a single day, the national alert was very tense. Now this astronomical figure, I wonder if the local people will panic?

Come to think of it, does insisting on zero contagion work? Unless locked for life?
