Turkey’s new virus figures confirm experts’ worst fears
In an about-face, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s government this week resumed reporting all positive coronavirus tests — not just the number of patients being treated for symptoms — pushing the number of daily cases to above 30,000. With the new data, the country jumped from being one of the least-affected countries in Europe to one of the worst-hit.
That came as no surprise to the Turkish Medical Association, which has been warning for months that the government’s previous figures were concealing the graveness of the spread and that the lack of transparency was contributing to the surge. The group maintains, however, that the ministry’s figures are still low compared with its estimate of at least 50,000 new infections per day.

Il Valore dell’Oro che bramano così tanto
Come dice il portavoce degli Yanomami Davi Kopenawa nel suo libro “La caduta del cielo”: “Quando un essere umano muore, il suo fantasma non trasporta nessuno dei suoi beni in il retro di al cielo, anche se è molto avido. Le cose che ha fatto o acquisito vengono lasciate sulla terra e tormentano i vivi solo riaccendendo il desiderio della sua presenza ..
Siamo diversi dai bianchi e il nostro modo di pensare è diverso. Tra loro, quando muore un padre, i suoi figli sono felici di dirsi: “Condivideremo la tua merce e il tuo denaro e li terremo per noi!”
Il nostro vero patrimonio sono le cose della foresta: le sue acque, i pesci, la selvaggina, gli alberi e frutti. Non merce! Pertanto, non appena qualcuno muore, facciamo sparire tutti gli oggetti che conservava. Maciniamo le loro collane…

On Saturday, Hungarian authorities reported 6,268 new cases and 152 deaths over a 24-hour period. Hungary experienced the second wave along with other European countries. This prompted Hungarian authorities to do a partial lockdown a few weeks ago for two weeks. The country has introduced several measures to curb the spread of the virus, and even though the number of new cases is in a downward trend, the number of patients hospitalized set a new record.
The number of infected does not yet include the results of the large-scale testing conducted in schools and kindergartens, the results of which are expected at the beginning of next week.
