There is a second wave of the corona virus in our country. Virologist Steven Van Gucht believes we can turn the tide.
In Het Laatste Nieuws, Van Gucht explains what we as a population should do. “Again: by respecting the known basic rules,” he says.
“If we stick to it, the virus cannot spread. Where are people infected? In the bistro, at the café, during parties with friends or family, …”
“Okay, we can now see 15 people in our contact bubble. There are quite a few, as far as I am concerned. I myself will not get there. I would recommend: keep this much more limited, and keep your distance.”
“Be careful, I have also already had some family meetings.” I will come when everyone has a fixed place at the table, and no shaking hands or hugs, “were my conditions.”
“Also be very strict with yourself for the slightest symptoms: really contact the doctor immediately, and stay at home. We really don’t have to look for it.”
