The end of jogging? and Happy Anniversary!

I run every other day. I run with my authorization and my ID card, and my Deezer playlist in one ear.  I was doing a 10km program and when they announced that you could not longer go more that 2km from your house, I started cheating.   Yes.  It's true. ( Hard to run and take a photo.) We're waiting to hear the new orders from the goverment this evening. Rumour has it my days of jogging are over, at least outside.  

Today I met one of our neighbours I haven't seen in ages.  We stood at 2 metres distance and tried to catch up.  Her oldest daughter had an internship at a company in London and she flew there last Monday to be told all interships were cancelled.  Interesting that the English company was taking measures against the virus but the UK government is only starting now.  She caught the next flight home. 

Here is France for the last couple of days, FB is aflame with a Dr Raoult who talks continually about how Covid-19 could be easily treated with Chloroquine, an old Anti-malaria and arthris treatment. It's no longer used for Malaria because the parasites concerned have become resistant. I think the US also is looking at that possibility. Mr Trump thinks it's a sure thing. In any case it would take time to get enough out to be a
effective. From what I've read the testing done has not been totally conclusive.

I wanted to use my left over bread starter to make waffles, however we have just a bit of butter left and I need half a cup. We don't want to go out just to get butter. Waffles will have to wait.

For those who do yoga and can't get to a class, I love 'Do Yoga With Me'.  It's filmed in Victoria (I think).  I've been doing their routines for a couple of years.  There's something for every level and most if it is FREE!  https://www.doyogawithme.com/


This evening we did a zoom with my side of the family to celebrate our 19th anniversary. What a joy! Even in this difficult time, there are some wonderful things happening.

Numbers for today:
1st case identified in France 24 january 2020.  Since then:
5 doctors have died
886 people have died, 186 in the last 24 hours
In EM's service probably 3 people are sick with Covid, 2 of the 3 have declared their illness. This gives us the confirmation that the cases could be higher than indicated.

19,856 people have been confirmed with the illness in France as of today.


This is not to be taken lightly people!!!
