Coronavirus Pandemic Update



James Gardens LBC Toronto 2020

My wife and I are Canadians. The Canadian government has called on all Canadians wintering overseas to come home because of the Coronavirus-19 pandemic. We have booked a flight scheduled to leave Portugal tomorrow rather than at the end of March as originally planned. This is good advice. Commercial airlines may soon stop flying. Many may declare bankruptcy! 

On the other hand, travelling in planes and passing through airports involves much closer proximity to other people than staying in our Portuguese rented condo and occasionally visiting the grocery store, pharmacy, and gas station. We are choosing to travel because this emergency could last many months. If we do get sick we will need friends who can leave stuff outside our living quarters. Community support is critical for everyone at this time.
 Bowlers- take this seriously. There will be a shortage of critical care equipment world-wide. Health professionals are going to become infected or exhausted. Our bowling community had better keep communicating. Check on your friends and acquaintances from the club. Your actions can save people you know. Laxity can kill people you know!
 I have faith in you! Good luck.
