Eid Shine Despite Challenges
Posted by HCN on Friday, July 31, 2020
Eid, the word not just having the meaning of celebration, but also having to do with life, has outlived, both back in time, and for the future, the current virus pandemic, at a basic discussion level. A time for remembrance, reflection, pulling together; remembrance and reflection could refer to the high sacrifice that was made earmarking the event, in the willingness to sacrifice; in Eid, hopefully, that beacon helps shrink through proportionality contentions of the current coronavirus, and put us on the road to victory.
There is potential that a storm system gaining in magnitude perhaps to hurricane, which heading in the direction of the southeastern part of the US, could affect on a practical level, activities and planning from now through the next few days.
Preparations and bracing for a region, especially Florida, already overwhelmed by coronavirus/COVID-19, markedly hospitals at about 150% capacity, in simple terms is maximum capacity, then the number of what half of maximum capacity is, added on to the number, severely burdening the hospital system, is a bell tolling. Anything that remotely looks like the disaster wrought through Hurricane Harvey near this time of year in 2017, hitting Florida while the hospital encumbrance is beyond a challenge to repair. Madagascar, miles away, considered a remote island, and possibly safe haven from advents like COVID-19, has now reported over 10,000 cases, and a sports arena is being used as a field hospital.
