Just a warning on how things spread (even though i know Brazil is late to the party...)
My city has a population of like 400.000 people. COVID19 was slow to get here.
The 1st of July we had 200 confirmed cases.
The 1st of August we had +1000 confirmed cases.
Do not joke with the disease. It is real.

I really feel bad, Mauritius is one of my favorite destinations.
Their economy already badly hit by the COVID-19 pandemic due to travel restrictions, as the country relies heavily in tourism.

We’re seeing what was feared with reopening of elementary and secondary schools across the US in a number of states. There are positive test results among students on their first day, if not their first week, and schools are having to close back down.
Update Sunday August 9th:
One high school in Georgia where two students posted images on social media and were suspended from the school, has now reported positive test results for more than one person. US student and medical privacy laws don’t allow names to be disclosed.
Update Sunday evening August 9th:
That high school in Georgia has now decided to shift to virtual learning for an indeterminate time.
There’s been some brighter spots at some universities especially those with health care systems attached. They’re able to enforce very strict bubble guidelines for students to even return to campus, and frequent testing with the means to isolate students, faculty or staff if there’s a positive result, and finding ways for student-athletes to practice for their fall season. Most major division 1 conferences are playing a schedule mostly or completely within each conferences while most other leagues and conferences are cancelling fall sports schedules or at least postponing the games until spring 2021.

This is seriously scary and will have diabolical consequences for my state if this legislation passed. Any politician who votes for the extension of these dictatorial powers may as well be voting to erode democracy as we know it. The power has gone to the Premier's head
