World's most most vociferous corona denies, Brazil's president, Jair Bolsonaro, has tested positive for the covid-19. He has termed the virus as "just a little flu" and kept the country open, with disastrous consequences for the population. Another who in the beginning took it easy on the virus, Britain's prime minister, Boris Johnson, survived the infection with a nødskrik. So got the pipa a different sound. This is just to let you know that after each course. Until we may get an effective and cheap vaccine is the virus here to stay. Until further notice, it is we who must align ourselves for the virus. The alternative is that the virus obtains all of us. And it is - when we think about - not an option.

New life of coronaen Leader

the Uk and Europe now opening up. It is good, and it is necessary. About a week we can travel to most places on the Mediterranean sea again, without having to defy the government's travel advice. But those who think that the world thus has become normal need to virkelighets-orient themselves. Images from London for the weekend, then the brits for the first time in a long time could go in the pub, is suitable for shock. Already now can the infection be traced from when the people stood as herrings in a barrel in London. Pictures from swimming at a packed Sørenga in Oslo, norway, or from the crowded buses on the way to Oslo-marka, or city-mountain in Bergen, is also suitable to shock.

Polluter must pay the Manager

even if nedstengingen of the country for the most part is over, we must still align ourselves for the virus. It is not true that we wait in fear of the second wave of the virus. Globally we are only at the beginning of the first wave. In the united STATES - the worst affected country - was it two weeks ago down in 25 000 new infected each day. Now after that large parts of the country are re-opened - then recorded the 55 000 new infected each day. And parts of the country to be closed again. It tells us that there are still four - literally - rules of conduct that apply: hand hygiene, reach, testing and tracking. And, if that doesn't help, isolation, and shutdown. Again.

The good news is that the experience we have with the virus makes treatment the sick get, is better. At least in our part of the world. Some medications shortens sykdomstiden, and experience in the treatment makes far fewer harbours in the respirator. The economy adapts to new times, and the home office is a new normal, but the economy in many countries has shrunk by 10 per cent in the first half of this year. We have to live with. For the alternative is not to live with.
