195. Big number. Yesterday I thought 161 was not to bad. Big jump in a day. Is it real? If so why? Are we doing more testing, telling more truths or what? And I'm travelling to work.... All a bit if'i. (not sure thats a word?).
But travelling to work I seem to be about the only one. Probably less visus on the street than in houses !!!! Maybe safest place to be... Theres a thought.
Took this at 7.00am this moring. Empty. Any other time you couldn't see the tarmac as its covered nose to tail with vehilces and street sellers. And the air is fresh, so fresh. I think Accra being on the coast makes a big difference but the actutual lack of movement by people makes you realize what a lot of devastation we cause. So jumping in the car and yes, there's no need to close all windows and put on the air con. Quite amazing. Great feeling. Poor street sellers, where they have gone and how they are coping, I've no idea.
Anyway here we are. Back in the office once more with very quite surroundings. Bit eirie. 😕
I plan to go out on site later today and see what if anything we can actually get achieved for the project in a safe manner. Wonder if in some ways if it is not all counter productve. I know we can in some places work at safe distances away from the local communities and away from other activities resulting in making us fairly self contained. But........... I say that, and only 100 meters away are loads of kids playing football. And if they are not playing contact sport on the pitch they are in their houses which are literally on top of each other. Eitherway they could not get any closer to each other. Seems a bit crazy to me. Maybe more just illogical.
Lets see what Day 5 will bring us..... I'm guessing the local population will start to creep out onto the streets and we'll see a slow build up on getting back to the 'good old' ways. Lets see.
