While the coronavirus is spreading in the world and some countries have already been declared risk areas, a party image that has now appeared causes horror.
Wuhan - When the first cases of the novel lung disease of the coronavirus * were reported in China, nobody suspected that the virus would soon turn the whole world upside down. After the first cases in the Chinese city of Wuhan in the Hubei province, Covid-19 * spread globally. Hundreds of thousands die in the first months of the pandemic. While many countries are currently struggling with increasing numbers of infections *, including Germany, in many places experts are even speculating about a second wave and further lockdowns, images from the once so affected region in China are now causing horror.
Coronavirus: Mega party causes sheer horror - residents crowded together
The photos clearly show that a concern about a second wave and a renewed lockdown seems to be farther away there. Instead, thousands of people celebrate a gigantic pool party. While the country can currently look forward to summer temperatures, thousands are cooling off in the "Maya Beach" water park with a huge pool party. While the recordings from the weekend go around the world, it becomes clear: nobody wears a mouth and nose cover here. Nobody seems to want to adhere to the distance rules advertised worldwide. In fact, there is almost no water to be seen in the photos, crowded together.
Coronavirus: Rising numbers of infections in Europe - metropolis horrified with mega party
The place where the mega-break has now taken place is exactly the place where the coronavirus * most likely found its origin. Although the metropolis of Wuhan currently reports almost no new infections, according to official information, one or the other should catch one's breath at this sight. Because while Europe, especially Spain, France, England and Croatia are struggling with increasing numbers of infections, the residents of Wuhan seem to be indulging in a cool dip in the mega pool without any worries.
Meanwhile, Chancellor Angela Merkel commented on the Corona situation in Germany - with "concern". It seems possible that after harsh criticism, a long-abandoned practice will return.
