1) a man (let's call him A) in a province received word of an ex-flame (B) who basically wanted to cheat on her husband with A. B lived in another province, and the two of them met at her house. Then B told A that she has arrived from Spain a few days ago...and that she was feeling a little ill. A did not care and they do..well, all. But then is when it gets crazy. A decided to get back to his province, where his friends invited him to a bbq party. He went and jokingly commented about his "adventure". People reacted logically, denounced it to the authorities and the whole town (aprox. 2500 people) went in quarantine since a few days ago. Now A and B are confirmed positive to COVID.
2) an Argentinian man in Uruguay was in observation for Covid, in a hospital. He escaped and took a boat (around 400 people) back home. The Uruguays discovered that he escaped and warned our authorities before the boat arrived here. So now the 400 people are in quarantine here (they allowed them to arrive and isolated them in several hotels specially for them)

Yes. We have another one. A young man arrived from USA jn March 13, just around the time our gov. dictated the order that all people arriving from there needed to do a 14-day quarantine. He disobeyed and next day he went to a birthday (from a 15 years old girl). Now he is on ICU and around 150 people are in observation because of him.
I went out for some groceries today and I am happy to say there were not too many people around. It seems that we are beginning to pay attention. This is not going so well yet (we had many cases today, more than double than yesterday. But yesterday has been a relatively good day)

Hey, everyone, Good Maen. I hear there will be two books this year. Stunned. Kentucky is under a "stay at home." I still do Pokemon go; now, I call it exercise.
Dina:
Hello everyone!
Yes, two books this year will be great!
I do Pokemon Go from home (very little) and when I go to buy groceries (not everyday. For example, today I stayed at home). Besides the quarantine, today is a National day-off so I decided not to do any work. Instead, I did a lemon pudding, watch "Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears"*, took a long bath and relaxed. Tomorrow I will begin reading and preparing things, so working. We can buy groceries online but not everything what you want is available that way, so sometimes I leave. Tomorrow I will probably get out, so it will be time for pokemon go. Oh, today they arrest a young man who was outside just playing pokemon.
*I am a fan of the show "Miss Fisher's murder mysteries". I have it on Netflix but it finished several years ago, after a 3 seasons. I've missed it since then, so as soon as I heard that the movie was going to be released yesterday in Acorn TV I began a 7-day free trial. The movie is not as good as the show but it was still good to see the characters again. It was fun.
