The idea of instituting lock-downs nation-wide is to keep the infection rate as low as possible to not overwhelm a given nation's health services infrastructure; hence the new buzz-word of "flattening the curve (of infection)" by spreading it over a longer time period.
The Lock-down has been extended for another month over here. The score is as follow:
Quote:Confirmed: 8,508
Recovering: 7565
Deaths: 211
As for the lockdown, it has largely been respected so far, but people have started to become restless.
