Now corona is really starting to take hold.
Around two o'clock in the afternoon, I check the RIVM site to see what the current situation is, and I also catch the press conferences. The coronavirus is making its rounds, and that has (sometimes quite bizarre) consequences.
First of all: you are no longer allowed to go to the US and the US is no longer allowed to come to us. Trump announced this last night, causing chaos at Schiphol and many flights were canceled. All crisis teams that our country has seem to be meeting today about the travel ban.
The private jets are literally flying around you. It is busy at Eindhoven Airport, as private flights have increased by no less than twenty percent, writes NOS. A quick calculation shows that you can already go to Ibiza with 10 people for 2000 euros. Not much money, right? I say: let’s go.
The talk show Op1 was without an audience. Well, that’s also not cozy. It’s all due to the guest at the table, as that was neurologist Bas Bloem from Radboudumc, who is not allowed to be in spaces where more than 30 people are present.
Domino’s will deliver contactless. Prefer no contact with the pizza courier or are you in quarantine? Domino’s ensures that you can still enjoy a pizza. They are immediately introducing the option to have no contact with the delivery people. How ingenious is that?

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson have tested positive. The couple is currently at home in Australia and did not feel completely okay. After tests, it turns out they both have the coronavirus.
You are no longer allowed to go to church. That means sleeping in on Sunday. Some churches in North Brabant are closing their doors to prevent the risk of infection.
Riverdale is in quarantine. Filming in Vancouver has been halted because an infected person has come into contact with someone from the team. So it could very well be that you have to wait a little longer for the next episode.
The Cin Cin in Gerlos is closing. Sad news for all winter sports enthusiasts heading to Austria, if that is even possible anymore, the Cin Cin will not finish the season. Just like many other après-ski bars in Austria. The slopes remain open for now.
