The novel coronavirus has been wreaking havoc throughout the world, and projections are that what is to come will be even more dire than what we are experiencing today.

Covid-19 has an impact on both the social and economic framework, in a very extreme way, with the immediate impact being that people don’t get to mingle with each other.

The Government, in my view, has been doing a good job in managing the crisis, and if I had any criticism, I would have been even more decisive and quicker about some of the measures.

For example, I would have preferred if all the measures — especially the travel ban — were enforced a week before and even stricter in that as soon as it was announced all those coming in should have gone in to mandatory quarantine, whether at home or in a government facility.
