    Thank you Steve once again for sharing this beautiful garden with us. Malta like a lot of places became complacent and thought that the virus was under control. Let's hope that we all do the right thing this time around. Currently in Melbourne we have an 8pm curfew and not permitted to travel more than 5 kilometres from home for shopping or exercise. Take care Steve looking forward to the live chat tomorrow.

    Thanks for the update. I wanted to show how, on my Island home, we dealt with the pandemic in a different way. I live on the Channel Island of GUERNSEY, and independently governed Crown Dependency, with a population of 60,000, located 20 miles from the north coast of France. Our Government followed the strict lockdown, used track-and-trace from the beginning, and managed to eliminate the virus by the end of April. So we have gone over 100 days virus-free. We have no restrictions, no masks, no social distancing etc. We are able to do this because we kept the Border CLOSED. We have one daily flight a day to the UK for essential travel, but we enforce a strict 14 day quarantine on arrival (actually from today they have reduced this to 7 days with a test on the 7th day). Our Tourism industry was devastated, but our Government offered financial support including a furlough scheme. They also encouraged a 'staycation' plan, where Islanders were encouraged to take their holidays on the Island (or the other 3 Islands that form our Bailiwick). It has worked well, and many Hotels have managed to keep going, albeit on reduced guests and staff. Maybe this is the model that the Maltese Government should have followed, at least until the end of this year. With regards to the idea of virus testing on arrival, our Chief Medical Office (an expert virologist) has constantly pointed out that as the virus hides in the body for up to 10 days, then an arrival test could be negative, but the day after would be positive. Testing before travelling might help, but then you could catch it during the journey. We have also linked up with another Island Crown Dependency, who have a closed Border, and are virus-free, the Isle of Man, and we have lots of 'air-bridge' flights between our Islands, allowing Guernsey people to holiday without quarantine in the Isle of Man, and Manx people to come here. I pray that a successful Vaccine can be found, so the evil pandemic can be neutralised, and we can all enjoy lovely holidays on the Maltese Islands again.

Such a sad situation seeing the case numbers rising, but probably because they are now testing over 2,000 people a day so it was inevitable cases would rise. Glad to hear they aren't serious cases and no more deaths. Really hoping we get over in a few weeks because that's when we are going to start living there. Fingers crossed x

    Thanks for the update Steve. Totally agree with you re party politics. I would be a purple voter, neither red or blue. In this instance the premature opening up to tourists may be a huge blow to the tourist industry in Malta. I think should have been a slow incremental opening rather than a big bang opening. Also agree with you re testing of all tourists. Not sure now when I can come again. Big shame.

      I understand your concern, - but tests show that the Covid test is 88% inaccurate. Also - the disease SARS-COV2 gives you (covid-19), is proven to havec a death rate of 0.002%. It's no worse than everyday flu, - But if your very old & have a compromised immune system, or have underlying health conditions - you are in the high risk group. The masks are also proven to be a health hazard. It a 'Harlem-Shuffle'. There's a lot going on in the world that main stream media are not telling you about. Whilst your looking left, - Things are happening to the right. The world is at war. It's a war between Good & Evil. Good is winning. 😀👍🍀❤

    With regards to Covid 19, I agree flights were opened too early and worst thing was, tourists entering without swab tests. Bars, events etc., were held and opened without strict restrictions. I also believe the people are responsible to follow the restrictions seriously by wearing masks, sanatizing and social distancing otherwise should be fined and with serious enforcement. That is the only way everyone will follow these restrictions and that is the only way we shall put the figures down. The Netherlands is on alert and anyone who enters the country requires to stay 2 weeks quarantine first. We as a country should not be afraid to restrict this to tourists being we have an increase with C-19 victims. Stay safe everyone ❤

      @batch6792 4 роки тому +2

      I wouldn't wear a mask. Its proven that they don't stop a virus (SAR-COV2 - which through interaction with exosomes in your immune system, - gives you the disease Covid-19). Most masks don't stop particles under 3 microns. SARS/Covid-19 are between 1 & 1.3 microns in size. Also masks put you into a state of Hypoxia (not enough oxygen), - which seriously suppresses your immune system. The immune system you should be building up in the summer months - for the winter rain, cold, & flus. Breathing too much Carbon Dioxide (CO2) causes Hypercapnia. It causes increased blood pressure, headaches, muscle twitches, rapid heart rate, chest pain, confusion, fatigue, - & can also lead to Organ Damage & long standing effect on the brain if excessive. The Masks are all about teaching the new global Artificial intelligence Surveillance System Software to recognise you by the way you move, habits, & eyes only. You carry on believing all the Government if you like - it's not like they ever lie - is it ?. I'll stick with science and proven fact. Good luck. 😕
