Good morning, good evening everybody on mylot. It is 9 o clock in the morning of Friday, 30th April. It is a bright sunny day. Warm as well at 28 degrees centigrade. We are on lockdown again but just for 4 days up to Monday and not that severe as in the previous time. The coronavirus situation in our state is also very serious as in the rest of the country but the authorities have no intention to impose a strict lockdown for longer duration. The experts feel that there should be strict restrictions on mass gatherings like marriages. People also feel that the casinos which are presently in operation should be closed down. These are super spreaders of the virus. Overall situation is very bad and frightening. There is no guarantee of availability of beds for serious patients. Hope the situation will improve soon. How is coronavirus situation in your area?

It is my views that partial lockdown is not able to give better results. Peoples are expert is using loop holes

@msdivkar It is right but when peoples are not taking seriously to partial lock down than what is another option

It may help a bit. Full country wide lockdown has so many drawbacks.

The situation is not good anywhere in India. It spreads too fast and medical facilities cannot cope. I have had both the jabs.

You are right. Having both the jabs does not give the guarantee that you won't be infected. My second doze is due on 9th. Hopefully I will be able to get it.

@msdivkar Agreed, we need to take precautions even after both the doses. However, I heard any infection will be milder and no deaths reported yet

@msdivkar People are just being stubborn. We can still celebrate but do it based on the rules. We don't need to go all out.

@prinzcy It is not possible to observe social distancing norms in such functions. They are best avoided.

These religious functions are helping this virus spread fast. In India religious Kumbh Mela has added to great extent to our present plight.

I really don't know, but I also don't pay attention to mass media. They can say whatever they want, weather there's truth to it or not.

Rural areas are not affected that much here also. It is going to be very bad if that happens.

It helps a lot if we close down because people do not follow social distancing norms when they move out.
