RedFox Blog: Surviving Christmas.
Post 772 18/12/20
This year will be different and after the new year the beginning of the next year will also be different as the winter virus season gets underway. Because the population have been told to wear a mask virus’s will not be able to spread. This is the hope of many governments due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Then some countries will lockdown to prevent the spread. So this season will not be the same. We will also protect the most vulnerable from getting so sick. Because if they are not protected then they may end up in hospitals and then they become overwhelmed.
The winter vomiting bug that usually has the hospitals on high alert will hopefully be under control. The only thing that will not be controlled is violence. If this happens in the city centre’s then hospitals may then become full. However due to the pandemic there may even be a cut in that. Everything has to be controlled due to the presence of this very life threatening pandemic. If the year pans out with the roll out of the new Covid Vaccine then the next Christmas will be back to normal. And then we have ourselves to blame.
Will The Threat Continue ?
With the change of the US government in January is the next question. Will the tune of Washington Change ? There is no question things will change as the new president has at least 35 years in foreign affairs. He understands the threats the world faces and understands that diplomacy will calm things down. Not a threat of a military strike. I think the word is more powerful than a weapon. Because people can talk. And the most important and pressing country that needs this is china. If there was a war there is a possibility that it will be china that starts it.
Next on the diplomatic list is Iran. With the end of the Trump administration come’s the possibility of renegotiating the Iran Nuclear Treaty something that kept peace. Then comes another dangerous foe Russia. But this country is on the target of both the Republicans and Democrats. They way things have cooled off in the last 6 years even under the Obama administration. This country may remain on the must watch list. The threats are out there but it will show the Biden administration can use its Foreign policy Experience to keep the peace.
