What is happening in Lebanon is a crime against the people. Anyone listening, hearing, and seeing?

1.5 Summer vacation in 🇱🇧 is over. Covid is increasing at an exponential rate. Cases are doubling almost weekly. Hospitals that had closed its Covid units have opened them again, as the number of patients who need admission keep rising daily. In short, things do not look good.

1/4 Let us be honest, we are in a new Covid wave. How bad will it be will depend on the rate of hospitalization. Our low vaccination rate does not bode well. Furthermore, hospitals are less prepared than before, and people are drained financially, physically, and mentally.

2/3 No one quantified the economic impact of the resultant loss of lives or illness. When people have short term memories, their policy makers tend to set short term goals. As Covid numbers resurge, it awaits to be seen what measures will be adopted now to protect the public.
