As most of you know, i got sent back to chile because of teh current situation worldwide.

The return of football leagues

Due to the pandemia, all the football leagues around the world have been suspended, but in this last weeks Europe and Asia started to recover, and the football leagues are returning with some sanitary requirements like playing with no fans at the stadium. The first league to return in Europe was de german league, and in the last days it have been announced the return of the Spanish and English league in the coming weeks.

Coronavirus vaccine

Now the only possibility to come back to the normality is with a vaccine for coronavirus. The last news we have is that an english laboratory have developed a really successful vaccine that has already been tested in humans with good results, they say it will be launched  into the market in September of this year with an initial quantity of 400 million doses. These are very enlightening news, because we already have a more clear horizon in relation to the pandemic, and when the world is going to begin to recover from the heavy economic consequences of it, but there is still a long way ahead.

Venezuela is acussed of revealing false figures on deaths by covid-19

according to the report made by Human rights watch and John Hopkins university, Venesuela should have 300.000 cases and 30.000 deaths. The government of Venezuela reported that there were only 10 deaths, this figures are absurd since Venezuela is not in a good state, it is a country where some people don´t have water to wash their hands. Dr. Kathleen Page medic and teacher from the university John Hopkins says that the tests made in Venezuela were not very precise, Venezuela government ensures that they have realized 300.000 tests. Do you think that those figures are irrealistic or its just a coincidence?

European? I think so... Union? Not anymore...

The old continent has been one of the most affected by the Covid-19 crisis. France, Germany, England, and most notably, Italy and Spain, have long suffered the consequences of human irresponsibility, their governments have been questioned and their economies crippled to the point of a deficit. The announcement made yesterday by the German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, has left the world worried, bringing the future of the European Union once more towards the spotlight. Will Brussels fall? The EU has been the center of public attention and criticism for some years now. The poor handling of the refugee crisis, the huge bailout delivered to Greek banks in an attempt to reinforce their economy,  the delicate fight against Islamic terrorism and above all, the impact of Brexit, are all arguments wielded by Anti-Union protesters, who plead towards nationalism, supposedly "regaining the control over their own countries". It is a common word among Europeans that the power within the EU...

the clandestine party

A few days ago,  arround 400 persons went to a clandestine party un maipu, violating the security messures that the goberment made to control the spread of the Covid-19.  The West Prosecutor's Office confirmed that it will prosecute all those attending the party. Seremi announced yesterday the start of a sanitary summary, while Interior Minister Gonzalo Blumel condemned the action as "a clear reflection of human stupidity"; meanwhile, the mayor of Maipú, Cathy Barriga, alluded to the fact that the Executive himself is responsible for non-compliance with preventive measures, for promoting the message of "new normality". This is such a shame because after all the work that the doctors do for us to stay safe, many of them risking their lifes to protect us, the people seems to not give importance to this, just to have a bit of fun. I really think that this people are the same people that say that the minister Mañalich doesnt care about the people. What do you think?...
