      Since the curfew was relaxed to 11pm you should see the amount of patrons at the bars. Police had to intervene and close some of them because it was almost 11pm and ppl were still there. Check EE every weekend you will see.

      Who oversees the the medical sector to know if they are telling the truth or just trying to keep or little population lockdown and in fear. People need have a second opinion testing elsewhere.

    “There are currently 7 persons hospitalized with the virus and all of these persons are unvaccinated.”

    A population of 30k of which one third vaccinated in some shape, some form. Anything happened to these VAX that the remainder of the population cannot take the vaccine and avoid all this tra la la? Anything happened to the majority of VAX around the world? Many who not vaccinating for COVID-19 takes their children for all kinds of vaccinations from birth up to 12 years. I wonder if these unVax don’t see what’s happening in the world, USA in particular when the unVax goes to the hospital - all of a sudden they don’t want to be intubated but be given the VACCINE.

    I can understand if your doc gives special instructions for those with special health conditions. Use common sense people!

    Wondering how much longer they are going to let people get sick and die when both Ivermectin and HCQ work as propholaxis and to cure C19. We need Monoclonal Infusions. . . come on everyone, demand that we can buy and take these drugs to prevent catching c19. They just can't deny this truth for much longer.
