Up until yesterday our week had been pretty non-eventful - it's beginning to seem like every other day and once or twice I've really had to think about what day it was.
As of today we have just under 1500 cases, 9 deaths which were elderly people mostly with health issues but over 700 have recovered. The prime minister is talking about entering Alert level 3 next week which means this:
- You can go out but stay within your bubble and 2 metres apart from others.
- Businesses which supply deliveries and those who can work with drive through can open - my 2 worked for McDonalds previously and they are hopefully starting work next week.
- Mass gatherings remained banned and a limit of 100 people indoors with outdoor events have a limit of 500 people.
- Non emergency treatment through dentists and doctors due to be explained more.
- If you can work from home keep that up.
- Stay local and try not to travel outside your area unless its essential.
- Some schools will reopen to some but not all students.
- Low risk activities are fine like surfing or fishing within your local area.

One of my friends works from home doing boat repairs and servicing so the other half has booked our boat in for a service. I do think as a country we've done pretty well to come out of this at the level we have but I do think we are going to be in for a tough recession no doubt to come. All we can do is just live day to day and try out best to bounce back.
I hope you're staying safe wherever you are.
