This is the time of our monthly post about the coronavirus pandemic and its numbers in graphs.
The official numbers of coronavirus cases in Egypt continued officially to Serge steadily in April 2021 following March 2021.
In April 2021 people already were warning that we started to the impact of the coronavirus’ third more vividly unfortunately as the Holy Month of Ramadan Kicked off and people as well as the government despites its restrictions acted as if there is no pandemic.
The restaurants and Ramadan tents, as well as parties, are back under the guise of social distance rules but there is no social distance nor masks rules.

April finished and the numbers are increasing and I hope that the government acts quickly and at least gives the Eid week off so people can stay in their homes for a while.
Last year, we had the peak of the coronavirus’ first wave in the month right Ramadan.
Disclaimer: According to Minister of Health Hala Zayed in early January, the official numbers of cases represent between 10%-15% of the real number of cases worldwide Egypt included.
It is enough to know that the Ministry of Health delivered 4,000 of its coronavirus medication bags to the in-house isolation cases in Suhag governorate this month only to know that the numbers are greater in the real world.
Now to the graphs of April numbers.

Happy Orthodox Easter from Egyptian Chronicles to all those celebrating it especially in Egypt from dear Coptic Orthodox Egypt.
On this occasion, I would like to share this quick photo taken on the Wadi Al-Natroun-Alamein Highway in Summer 2020 for one of the famous Wadi Al-Natroun Christian Monasteries.

I can't pinpoint which monastery it is, if you do know then please leave a comment. I will be very grateful.
Wadi Al-Natroun or Al-Natroun valley includes a series of oldest monasteries, not only in Egypt but in the world. Wadi Al-Natroun is also one of the places that were visited by the Holy Family when they came to Egypt.
I hope one day inshallah I can visit this area and see all those places.
This year and due to the coronavirus outbreaks, all the visits to the monasteries are cancelled currently for the time being.
Please stay safe, stay home, keep your social distance and mask on and register to get the vaccine as soon as possible.

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.
