So, what happens after the holidays?
People will start moving again after holidays and the Coronavirus will escalate even more rapidly !!!!
Such stupidity,
Please ask population to assess their own risk status (whether they have ‘Una’) and self-isolate.
Workplaces should support genuine self-isolation.
Now this is a brilliant idea. A country where 95% over employed it want make any difference. The government should extend this holiday indefinitely. The economy will be better on the saving of electricity for air conditions in offices and fuel on public transport and the pollution and the lost goes on.
