Picnics in parks and other public places, if the cold is not bitter, suggests the World Health Organization to celebrate this Christmas safely in the midst of a coronavirus.
In particular, speaking at a press conference on Thursday, the WHO chief for Europe, Professor Hans Kluge, characteristically said: “Celebrate the holiday with those close to you. If it is a big gathering of vulnerable people, You can postpone this meeting until you can safely concentrate. “Despite the cold weather, if local restrictions allow, gather outside with your loved ones for a picnic in the park.”
Scientists are noted to have suggested that easing restrictions on coronavirus over Christmas may require several days of stricter measures to … compensate.
For his part, Andrew Hayward, professor of infectious disease epidemiology at University College London and a member of the emergency scientific advisory group, warned that the Christmas comorbidity presents “significant risks”, especially for the elderly.
He stressed that great emphasis was placed on the smooth running of this year’s celebration season for everyone. The professor pointed out that we are just before the vaccination of the elderly begins, so it would be tragic to make hasty and superficial movements now.
It should be noted that the information from the Berlin newspapers “Berliner Morgenpost” and “Tagesspiegel”, as well as from the financial magazine “Business Insider”, states that there are thoughts from the German L γιαnder about the extension of the partial ban (blockade), which it ends at the end of the month, until at least shortly before Christmas.
Next Wednesday, state leaders will decide together with Chancellor Merkel how to proceed with the issue of dealing with the coronavirus crisis. State representatives are expected to discuss the formulation of a joint proposal for the extension next Monday.
According to the German News Agency (dpa), other possible measures to address the coronavirus in schools will also be considered during the L .nder talks.
On the other hand, the British Health Minister leaves open the possibility of restrictions. There are signs that cases of the novel coronavirus in Britain are beginning to decline as a result of the lockdowns that have taken effect, Health Minister Matt Hancock said today, noting that this paves the way for a Christmas season with less stringent restrictions. .
There are encouraging signs that the number of cases is beginning to decline and that the lockdown we imposed earlier this month is working, Hancock told Sky News. This certainly won’t be like other Christmases, the rules should apply, but hopefully they will allow it to be a bit more like the normal Christmas everyone is waiting for, he added. In Italy, the competent minister, Roberto Speranza, signed a decision today, which extends the validity of the local blockade until December 3 in four regions of the country.
