[QUOTE="MissLulu, post: 758422, member: 24721"] Copa, you are so right about inferring safety and taking bigger risks. We are in the midst of our second wave here, which has been much worse than the first. My state is in a hard lockdown. The capital city has a curfew enforced and we all must wear masks if we leave the house for groceries or medical appointments. Most people in our state are only allowed to leave their house for one hour per day to exercise. Only one person per household is allowed to shop, and all shopping must be completed in an hour or less. Before the second wave hit I was becoming complacent, but not anymore. The lockdown has been much harder to bear the second time around. This second wave came from one outbreak - a breach in quarantine security - and the result is around 400 people have lost their lives so far. Most of the fatalities have been older people but some were in their 30s and 40s. New Zealand went for 100 days without any cases, now they have around 20 (which is still way better than most places, but shows how even with the most stringent controls this thing can find it's way back in. We have had tough restrictions here in Australia, especially in my state. At the end of May we'd had less than 2000 cases all up here (in my state) and only a handful of deaths. Restrictions were eased and then the second wave started. Now we've had 18000 cases all up and around 400 deaths. Thankfully we are starting to see a drop in numbers again, but we've had to go to next level restrictions to get a result. And it will be some time before we can ease the restrictions we have. All I can say is please take care all of you! (Most especially those of you in the US, where the virus seems to be still very much out of control.) [/QUOTE]
