No need to give details

Today I take a rest from COVID-19 craziness. Anyway the virus is all over the news and more and more countries are facing the pandemic and trying to cope with it. What I can see, countries like Belgium, Netherlands, France and other are acting pretty OK. Less can be said of USA, I just read about a lady that had serious lung problems and was unable to get any help from the “help line” and other. Looks like a big mess with insufficient preparations, especially to do the tests.
Good luck to them. And if they try a test, might cost them thousands of dollars. WTF.

Other reason to take a break, my wife made it safely back from Brussels on a nearly empty Hainan Airlines plane. Luckily Brussels is still considered a “not-seriously-affected area”. See yesterday’s post. The airline as well as Beijing Airport are taking stringent protective measures and passengers are seriously screened and tested.

Renaat Morel talking to CGTN

Our friend Renaat gave an interview from his Beijing apartment.

See him (after some 12 minutes); it did play in my mobile.

Was in Le Journal yesterday.
Morel’s Restaurant remains closed but Legend Beer reopens, doing mainly take-outs.
Whatever authorities claim, back to normal is faaaaar away and many businesses won’t survive till then.

All meetings cancelled

Well, our Sanlitun Rotaractors opted for another ZOOM meeting on Monday, happy to join as always.

Looks like ZOOM is very popular now…
