A new month under the coronavirus pandemic.
It is May and in its first half of it, We got Labor Day, Orthodox Easter, 10 days of Ramadan and Eid during a scary surge of coronavirus cases across the country right now.
I do not know if we are in the middle of the third wave’s peak or the peak will be reached after those two weeks of national holidays and social gatherings.

In 2020, Egypt’s witnessed the peak of the coronavirus’ first wave in June right after Ramadan.
The government does not want a full lockdown or semi lockdown but it may resort to that if things go out of control.
The majority of the people are still careless. In those first 20 days of Ramadan restaurants and Sohour tents are back to business.
The only difference is that they do not offer shisha. Ramadan concerts are back. The public informal markets are over packed.
It is more than alarming because we are still very slow when it comes to vaccination. We still do not have enough vaccines and many people are scared of vaccination too.
Facebook has become like a scary obituary social network.
Stay safe, Stay at home as much as you can, keep your social distance, wear your mask and get vaccinated, please.
Here is our monthly live coverage of everything coronavirus in Egypt and the Arab world.
