However, I want to say very honestly that if we all do not follow the rules, we look for exceptions, we continue to create those situations, the system may not hold up after 2 weeks ”, he did not hide.
The growth will be in a few weeks.
A. Dulkys pointed out that really big numbers will continue to be seen in the coming days.

This may further motivate us that it made sense, ”said the Minister.
He stressed that the upcoming holidays have a very deep meaning.
