Burundi's President disregarded the threat of Covid. He just died of it. Ghana's President is wiser. He has seen the escalating numbers, daily infection rates of almost 300 with over 10,000 infections.
Our wiser President has advised us to avoid opportunities for all mass gatherings. He says churches should do 100 people, socially distanced at a time. You are on your own when you join some mass exercise. Be safe.
