Good Morning ,
We have about 5300 cases of Corona and 20 deaths of which some 16 were very elderly , we are having an high rate of recovery and the nightmare scenario of hospitals not coping has not occured .
Whether in times of war , social unrest or in the current almost unique to all of us Pandemic there will always be time for retrospective introspective searching on where and how we could have done better or been better prepared .
Why this or that wont solve the issues facing my society or any society blighted by this virus however it will be interesting to see who amongst the develeoped nations will pull through without such remarks as all wont be fine in - the US or the UK or France or Italy or Spain or in fact ANYWHERE , somethings will remain the same some of course wont , humanity for all its advances lives forever on a learning curve

The Ultra Orthodox in Israel live in bubbles / communities where each sect listen to their Rabbis first and the rule of law last that is why they are now amongst the highest suffering group in terms of contagion .
We are seeing every day TV of the Ultra Orthodox crowding / collecting / massing as if nothing is happening and if for no other reason than for the protection of the larger general public the Police have been called in to disperse and detain the known trouble makers who are encouraging the crowds to go about their lives protected as they believe by the Almighty , these people live in an alternate universe
