Experts are unanimous. If the figures for the past few days are not necessarily worrying, it is essential to continue to respect the measures imposed by the authorities.

In recent days, the figures for coronavirus contaminations in Belgium have increased slightly. Nothing to worry about, for the experts, even if these figures are to be watched.
According to the professor, Geert Meyfroidt (UZ Leuven), “we have been on a plateau for a while” and we must expect “to stay around it all summer long”. Marc Van Ranst is of the same opinion and explained this Sunday that one should not worry more than that as long as the number of hospitalizations continued to drop.
Experts are unanimous, however, that it is essential to remain cautious. Indeed, it is by respecting the security measures that we will be able to get rid of the virus for good. This was recalled by Emmanuel André, the former inter-federal spokesperson Covid-19 on Twitter this Sunday.
“Yes, a second wave may be more important than the first,” he tweeted, giving the example of Israel. The Israeli government reimposed containment measures a few days ago in several neighborhoods in five cities, including Jerusalem. The country recorded a record number of 1,464 new infections this weekend.
“Let us continue to respect the rules which make it possible to prevent this …”, said Emmanuel André.
