Coronavirus Covid-19: Far from our bed show? Or not?
At first we thought,it's just a flu...
I think I don't speak only for myself when I say that both my friend and I initially thought that the #coronavirus an ennobled flu and we were just #bang via the #media - Yes- Yes.I haven't been so gullible about what the media has been presenting to us for a numberoryears,for which I have my reasons- Yes.Now we are dealing with a different kindormedia,because we no longer live in the Netherlands,but in Hungary where we have to deal with limited news sources in English- Yes.Every day there is a meeting here at 12 o'clock in the afternoon and later in the day the new measures are passed on to the inhabitants by a press conference,video and later websites that publish it (fortunately) in English.
Few infected persons (known) in our country
Maybe you'll recognize it when I tell you that I didn't worry about the whole virus during the first period because no cases were known in my region- Yes.By my region I mean in this case the country,since here in #Hongarije at the timeorthis writing (Sunday 15 March 2020 at 9.30) only 32 cases are known that #positief #getest are on the #corona #virus - Yes- Yes.I saw earlier this morning the number 30 cases,but on this live map ,I read 32,so now there are 2 positive tested.
Hoarding? Or not?
Since we unfortunately only have a small freezer compartment and limited storage space for stock,I have taken up a few things- Yes.Normally I walk (almost) daily to oneorthe supermarkets to stock up the food for that day,I take larger numbers sometimes if there are offers,but I usually only have meals for 1 to 2 days- Yes.So I started hoarding slowly in the various supermarkets last week to make sure that if I really have to (hopefully) 14 days at least have something to eat for the threeorus.
For the first time in the two years that we live here I now have 2 kitchen cabinets (4 shelves) fullorstockorshelf life things- Yes.Normally I only have a few trayen with bottlesorwater in a cupboard (because the water here in our neighborhood is really dirty from the tap and probably not healthy becauseorold pipes)- Yes.That's kindora crazy face,fullorcabinets- Yes.I did not buy extreme numbers toilet paper,1 extra pack compared to my normal stock,and so also detergent,shampoo and the like a new bottle in stock- Yes.I am well aware that you really do not have to buy for 2 months but better make sure that everyone can get something in the supermarket.
Where we normally buy some fresh sandwiches every day,we will now #broodjes go #bakken
Further on the schedule is: #suikerbrood or #suikerbroodjes baking- Yes.That's gonna be a first try,just like #kaneelbroodjes that I have on the schedule- Yes.These kindsorthings are not only useful to prevent us from having to go out (unnecessarily),but also a nice #activiteit to keep our daughter busy during our voluntary #thuis #quarantine - Yes.
Als reactie heeft onze premier 'het luchtruim gesloten' voor vluchten van en naar Europa. Hopelijk is alles weer genormaliseerd, wanneer ik mijn bezoek aan de kinderen in NL ga brengen (1e 3 weken juni).
Mijn kinderen en kleinkinderen laten zich ook niet gek maken, nemen wel alle voorzorgen: Een 'schoon-kleindochter' werkt nu thuis, 1 kleinzoon moet van zijn werkgever met mondkapje,handschoenen en desinfecterende wipes werken en mag niet in het OV: moet fietsen.
