So where do we stand right now? Officially we have 5 cases including 1 death. A number of persons are in some degree of quarantine or isolation. Testing seems to be used sparingly.
Several government agencies are urging the use of social distancing. Ports are closed to travellers. Several outlying regions are about to start lockdowns or curfews. Schools were closed earlier in the month.
In the city activities are reduced but many clubs, bars and restaurants still operate. Not all take the threat seriously. Public transportation (by minibus) is still crowded but taxis are increasingly used. Some wear masks. Checkout queues in stores are not spaced out in most cases.
Here on the East Coast life is less affected but is quieter than usual. Masks are not generally seen. The highway is still busy. Life goes on...
