Congratulations (in quotation marks) on schoolchildren going home from October 5!
Education of children in standard conditions in 2020 is not fashionable. Why they came out is not at all clear. Apparently, a couple more weeks and we will all come together with you to the new old realities of sitting at home, live broadcasts and other related elements of self-isolation already familiar from spring. Whoever doubted this is an optimist, who is becoming less and less in our country.
The weather in September allowed me to fully enjoy the warmth, cheerfulness and joy of sunny days, allowed me to replenish vitamin D reserves and supported immunity, but the time has come for illnesses.
While everyone was shouting and continuing to talk about the "corona", in the capital there was "a light rumor" about mass diseases of influenza and SARS, but it was said so quietly and casually that no one paid any attention. However, many people got sick and not everyone had it in a mild form. Here's the question, why didn't they trumpet about the epidemic? Infection was also high. I know this not from gossip and talk, but for the simple reason that your editor-in-chief, with her family and friends, personally experienced these troubles. I don’t know why they didn’t declare quarantine in Moscow on this occasion, but I don’t understand even for myself anymore, but whether self-isolation and quarantine regimes are needed at all.
And even more so, I don’t perceive the mask, for the simple reason that I consider it an accumulator of bacteria, because of which it is likely that I caught the flu, which happens very rarely to me. Now about the "modes".
During this month I had a chance to enjoy both Moscow and St. Petersburg. There was everything: shops, banks, government agencies, public transport, trains. The paradox of Russia is the control of the mask regime, the fines of stores for cosmic amounts for non-compliance with requirements and norms. But! In trains and public transport, the distance is not respected, there is no mask regime. At the railway stations, no one really monitors this either, and I didn’t notice any means for personal “disinfection” during my hour at the station in St. Petersburg and in Moscow. It’s also not worth talking about waiting rooms, train and aircraft salons, where the 1.5-meter scheme or “through one place” operates.
Apparently, after all this, it is worth concluding that “through one place” everything works in our country, except for this. At the moment I am writing this, I still do not know if we will again find ourselves in self-isolation mode, and if so, what will be the consequences for business, the economy, the health and psyche of people, although it is not difficult to guess.
In our publication, conversations with interesting people on interesting topics continue.
We are always with you in live materials about health, psychology, fashion and, of course, business and society. I want to wish everyone health, patience, strength to move forward and strength to change their lives for the better!
