Mid season and Lock downs on COVID-19!
/Hello to you all my friends!
First of all i wish that everyone is coping in the best possible way!
We here at the Algarve had the worst Easter holidays in decades, probably only similar to the times of the 1st world war ( on the second, we were neutral and that, saved thousands of lives here).
With that said, it was a huge hit without warning , this covid-19 pandemic.
In the region, the impact has been marginal in cases, and i must say “OBRIGADO” to all our civil , security and militar forces together with the population, that are having an exemplar civic role, most of the time, by solidarity.
That reveals the true Portuguese spirit , brave and humble to help and to discover new solutions/approaches to new uncharted territories.
Even Mr. Johnson, UK Prime Minister gave is blessings to Luís , a Portuguese male nurse that helped Mr. Johnson during is struggle with Covid-19.
So, as the Portuguese Government extended the lock down to May 1, we are still waiting to reopen our Economy to travel and other services.
Here i attach a picture of good forecast to the UK on the middle term , as things normalize in the future.
With that in mind, i wish you all the best and keep strong and safe.
Warmest Regards,
Barros
